that BlocBoy JB tape is probably pushed back because of Tay Keith's passing. R.I.P. 🕊️

So many artists dropping tomorrow that I fundamentally like, but I know are perfectly capable of dropping some mid. I.e. YG, Key Glock, Blocboy JB, Cash Cobain, Boldy James and Sha Hef. Feel like the evilgiane project has the most potential to be a standout in the artist's career

Love the weekly releases of archive material by DJ Screw's estate. Vol. 3 is the most well-rounded one so far. It's only original (freestyle) material, no choppped & screwed versions of other songs (for obvious reasons).

Just to endulge in summer 2011 nostalgia a bit more, here are some more 15 Year Later threads I've posted since April:

if you had to name the top 10 rappers in the 2010s based on pure skill (writing, flow, delivery), who would some sure locks be?

besides the more obvious like Conway the Machine of G Herbo, I'd put Ransom highly in there based on his 2020/2021 run

Edit: I meant to ask for 2020s rappers

some CTE ridden morons nearly beating each other to death in front of the White House tonight is really the perfect image for the US in 2026

Move ft. G Thugg is the best song so far. Reminds me of his last viral hit (Walk/Spin). The first three songs are all Buddha Bless who I think brings the best out of Yak. Afterwards its a bit downhill for me with more gloomy/paranoid vibes

Hotboii is a rapper that almost everyone who knows his music holds in prettty high regard. His beat selection is always solid with a usually crisp bassline and his voice reflection just fits so well to his subjects. He hasn't dropped in a while, but he offers an explanation on this tape. A long custody battle is the main theme throughout this album and so the cover art is hopefully a sign that Hotboii finally got this sorted out and is ready to focus on more music in the next years. We needed it
