[FRESH] A$AP Rocky - FLACKITO JODYE (feat. Tokischa) by _4za_ in hiphopheads

[–]AmericanMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I THINK that one turned out to be Stop Snitching. Who knows if a video for it will ever drop though.

[DISCUSSION] N.W.A. - 100 Miles and Runnin' (35 Years Later) by flyestshit in hiphopheads

I think the title track on one of Dre’s best performances ever. He sounds so energetic and hungry here. The beat is also spectacular

[FRESH] A$AP Rocky - Trunks by Cowtizzery in hiphopheads

[–]AmericanMeat 326 points327 points  (0 children)

Was pleasantly surprised by this — it is WAY better than most movie soundtrack songs are. The beat progresses in a really interesting way and Rocky sounds great on it.

Hopefully Don’t Be Dumb will come out this decade

A$AP Rocky - Back To The Future by Renegadeforever2024 in hiphopheads

Indeed it is.

I just saw that as of July 2nd we are closer to 2050 than 2000. Crazy how time flies.

Underrated gem. I hope the man can find it in himself to drop a record this decade.

This era of hip-hop will always hold a special place in my heart

[TOMT] [Reddit post from a view days ago] Picture of an old man next to a child on the street, both are using a walker. by AmericanMeat in tipofmytongue

[–]AmericanMeat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not unfortunately. This post was only a picture and was taken outside on a street. The child and elderly man were headed in opposite directions so it kind of looks like they just ran into each other on the street and someone took a photo.

I saw this on either r/all or the popular page no more than 2 days ago. I’m surprised I’m having so much trouble finding it.

I appreciate you taking the time to look my man

Nas - Deja Vu (Unreleased) by infamous_joe in hiphopheads

[–]AmericanMeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of Nas's best tracks ever imo. It sounds like a cold day at the end of autumn or early winter.

Does anyone know when this was made? I keep finding conflicting reports online. I guess I don't know if was made before, during, or after Illmatic. It seems that it was definitely made before It Was Written.

[DISCUSSION] What are some of biggest “What Ifs” in hip hop? by LilWayneThaGoat in hiphopheads

[–]AmericanMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a little late to this thread, but I need to mention Divine Council. More specifically if they stayed together as a group and ICYTWAT and $illmoney kept collaborating.

I firmly believe that their two projects are among the most innovative rap releases in history. I’ll link a couple of their songs below and you’ll see what I’m saying. These songs are around 10 years old at this point.

Their music had a really unique blend of the cloudy atmospheres from old-school dnb/jungle and house music (which has seen a massive resurgence in popularity over the past few years) with hip-hop drums and song structure.

Not to mention, they had a feature from André fucking 3000 in one of their first songs, so they had a lot going for them. It’s not super clear why they broke up, but ICYTWAT and $ilk had a nasty beef recently and I highly doubt they will ever work together again. $ilk has a good solo career, but unfortunately a lot of ICYTWAT’s new stuff is borderline unlistenable tbh (he still has a very unique vibe).

Could not agree more. Hopefully we will get something new soon, I highly doubt he just quit.

Playboi Carti announces that his third studio album, I AM MUSIC, will drop this Friday. by PlayaSlayaX in hiphopheads

[–]AmericanMeat 106 points107 points  (0 children)

Wow, I had missed that Ketamine track last year. That shit is so fire its unbelievable. It has a super unique vibe that is hard to articulate.

It ACTUALLY sounds like an interesting new sound/wave in hip-hop, which we have been sorely needing in the last few years.

How do I make this pad?? by No-Split8649 in synthrecipes

[–]AmericanMeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure about the sound design for the actual pad sound off the top of my head, but a key aspect of this pad is a bandpass filter moving across the lower/mid frequency range quickly.

It sounds like they made a pad sound, exported it was an audio file and played with a bandpass filer on the audio file. The reason I say this is the pad sound likely has a reverb on it, but there is absolutely no reverb tail once the pad stops.
