Anyone pick up the new Childish Gambino album? I grabbed it the other day on a whim because I heard one of the tracks and I have a few friends that enjoy his stuff so I figured why not. I dig most of it but some parts of it are still a big ":spock:"

I'm really liking this album. Some great songs, but I really wish there was another verse in most of the songs.

Whoaaaaaaaa, wasn't expecting somebody to post some Denzel Curry on here.

I love some Denzel, Ethelwulf, Lil Champ FWAY, Spaceghostpurrp, Antwon, Koopsta Knicca, Supa Sortahuman, Project Pat, Tommy Wright III, Mac t Dog, Chris Travis, Lil Ugly Mane, and generally anything from Memphis between '93-'97. And some ROBB BANK$.

If it doesn't sound like this then you're listening to some Girl Scouts.


Couldn't figure out how to post the video so here are the links. :lol:

my favorite rapper lately has been Tree from Chicago.

very dope, gravely voice and awesome beats. He calls it soultrap, putting soul samples of trap-style beats.

he's very dope

Some more Euro hip-hop.

Chiens De Paille.

I'm a big fan of French hip-hop, the language really suits it.
I speak French very well, but it's still very difficult to follow!

I always thought the surplus of words/syllables/articles (le, la, de, etc...) made it more challenging to pull off. Even being bilingual, what little I have heard I could not make sense of either :lol:

Die Antwoord - Zef Side. - YouTube

Don't listen to a lot of rap, but I listen to a hell of a lot of Die Antwoord.

Another Die Antwoord listener, cool!

They've got some pretty sweet beats. Some of their lyrics are a bit over the top and outrageous, but I guess they're like that themselves.



Chance the Rapper is really cool. Apparently he drops acid then records rap albums, apparently.

Also, Toro Y Moi is getting heavy rotation on my playlist right now1
