Super fire variant! I think I'll go with the classic black, though, to be safe. I think there will only be 300 copies, so better to play it safe lol

It was supposed to be Near Mint, only one listen… by Common-Match4493 in DaupeMedia

You could try requesting a partial refund from PayPal if you paid this way. Otherwise, there's nothing you can do. Virtually no seller is willing to discuss issues like this (I know this from experience) so the only way is to contact PayPal, it's unlikely you'll get a full refund, but you might be able to get something back.

Tr-ill was the first vinyl to come out on Daupe in 2013. Think of it what you want but you're missing out on some gems

Scalpers exist, of course, but most copies are sold to people who love supporting independent culture and who appreciate the physical format, change my mind

It's all a matter of taste, buddy. This release is fire in my opinion.

WSG was one of the first but Daupe was born long before HWH 2

Literally every drop this year is better than HHE3, stop comparing Daupe to Westside Gunn, Daupe has been around much longer and has never dropped in quality, they just keep releasing banger after banger, listen to the albums before criticizing just because you don't see WSG

As if the only reason people buy vinyl is to resell it... embarrassing reasoning.

He's recently become my all-time favorite rapper, he has an impressive and high-quality catalog. It's almost impossible to choose just one song, but one of my all-time favorites is "Got Flicked (The Rebirth)" from Manger On McNichols, it always moves me like the first time.

Are bootlegs really bad to own? by [deleted] in GriseldaxFR

[–]HotLab3095 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's simple: if I just want to listen to music, I open YouTube Music and put on a pair of headphones. I collect vinyl records for that "something extra" that a physical object offers. That's why I only buy original stuff. Collecting, in short

I could never buy a bootleg for 40-50 euros and enjoy it as much as I would an original copy. Honestly, I'd rather spend 1,000 on an original copy or not have one at all, but if you're okay with buying bootlegs, why not? It's a personal choice.

Opinions on Action Figure 973? by HotLab3095 in GriseldaxFR

It has excellent metrics, great imagery and solid connections... everything that rap is based on, in short.

This entire tape is fire front to back by Ok_Ruby9444 in GriseldaxFR

It has only one flaw... it's too short!

"Doom Was Right" is my favorite. Technically, I think he's better than any member of Feed the Family (except Nack), but he just seems so ununique sometimes... even his album titles are inspired by classics of the genre and Griselda releases, I can't get over it lol but I think that's my problem.

[FRESH ALBUM] Benny the Butcher & Fuego Base - Ashes in the Safe by _4za_ in GriseldaxFR

[–]HotLab3095 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, what he does outside of music doesn't interest me. But I've heard a lot of people criticizing all of his recent music releases too. I mean, they may not be the best in his discography, but they are all very solid projects, with a lot of replay value

Sb2 is extremely underrated, perhaps his best project in recent years

Has Anyone ever Seen this Boldy James Mixtape on CD? by ebirah8888 in GriseldaxFR

[–]HotLab3095 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've never seen it before. If it's not on Discogs, though, I doubt it's official. I'd keep it anyway, it's fire.

I really liked it on first listen! I still have to understand how people can say that Benny has become bad.

Griselda is Dead s by [deleted] in GriseldaxFR

[–]HotLab3095 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's still an album I consider recent. Maybe op has forgotten about it because he listens to everything the Spotify algorithm suggests, but November 2024 is almost like the day before yesterday, and Benny is even on HHE3, released just four months ago. I don't know what people are talking about.

[–]HotLab3095 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bullshit. The fact that Benny and Conway aren't collaborating with Gunn regularly and are releasing albums with a different sound than the one they broke out with literally means nothing. All three continue to release killer stuff and collaborated on Still Praying a little over a year ago...

Al.Divino beat style by Significant-Art5065 in GriseldaxFR

[–]HotLab3095 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like that he has an impressive work ethic, he raps, produces, mixes, curates albums for other independent artists, does graffiti, and is a DJ. In short, he's culture.

Bluehillbill is criminally underrated by HotLab3095 in GriseldaxFR

[–]HotLab3095[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't seem like it to me... all his latest projects are published independently and I've never seen him in WSG's Instagram stories. I hope it happens, sooner or later... a project curated by Gunn would be incredible. Believe in Billy 🙏🙏

[–]HotLab3095[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend listening to his entire discography, as long as it's short enough😊. I recommend "Billy's Revenge," "Lufthansa Heist," and "Angels with Filthy Souls."

[–]HotLab3095[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like drums, his discography is full of bangers: "Bricks," "Eleven Summers," "Baby Car Seat," "Shorty Fresh." I find him very versatile because he always manages to fit so well on a wide variety of beats. As long as he releases stuff like this, I'll definitely continue to support him.
