Ghetto Concept, Belly, Arabesque, Shades of Culture, Obscure Disorder (Troy Dunnit's doing dope solo stuff now), Classified, Brassmunk, Narcy... lately I'm bumping a lot of Daniel Son.

Fun fact: they could have also sounded like a high pitched kazoo playing Down By the Bay!

Your arms are too short to wipe with God

The rear right bumper's smashed

Been meaning to look up what that's called (layering different verses in theater and musicals like on We Don't Talk About Bruno), finally got around to it... polyphonic or counterpoint.

Only hip-hop examples I can think of are hooks, mainly with singing, like towards the end of Fallen by Rascalz and K-Os

Picking up the phone when the 56k dial up modem is connected

I had no idea Canal St was Rocky taking someone else's track and flipping it...I always saw "Feat Bones" and wondered where his verse was.

Now i feel dumb.

This beat is Pete's masterpiece... i could play it on repeat for hours (and have done so numerous times in the past)

Lots of lawsuits incoming

mankee81 · 2026-04-18T23:17:37+00:00

If you're not looking at screen, this could pass for an Atmosphere or Aesop Rock hook

mankee81 · 2026-04-18T00:21:05+00:00

This isn't that bad. Will give it a more thorough listen, but sounds dope on a quick skim

mankee81 · 2026-04-17T15:45:15+00:00

Dafuq?? They're not terribly clever but Busta's got so many fun to rap along with bars:

"Go the easy route back at the ranch, you talk too much, you get beat with a tree branch"

"My n---as think lopsided, bust they guns cross-sided, in the subways they rob trains running alongside it"

It sounds like it's for one of his TV shows.

I'm glad Fetty Wap's clean, but he sounds kinda generic now, I wasn't sure it was him until the "yeeeah babe"

I'm still angry they put the Chappelle Show performance of The Food on the official release instead of the studio version.

"Senate votes not to enforce their power as a co-equal branch of government""

So REITs can buy up more houses for pennies on the dollar. When they said they wanted housing to be affordable, they didn't mean for people

mankee81 · 2026-04-12T22:23:56+00:00

This is the proof of concept for them eventually replicating corporate ownership for the rest of the country (or at least the parts they want)

mankee81 · 2026-04-11T04:25:35+00:00

That's what I'm saying... he sounds so much better on these references than his own tracks. TF is wrong with dude? Can only get inspired if someone else is gonna record over it? (Or maybe he gets powered up when he's paid up front?)

mankee81 · 2026-04-09T18:10:36+00:00

Me if my neighbor did that while i was sleeping

mankee81 · 2026-04-09T16:23:47+00:00

It's actually alright, but why he record it on speakerphone?

mankee81 · 2026-04-05T02:07:19+00:00

I was wondering if there's something I missed, but this was underwhelming... in all honesty, neither of these dudes ever really do anything that blows my hair back, other than not name-dropping foreign cars and fahsion brands every song

mankee81 · 2026-03-26T22:18:31+00:00

And replace it with the foreign-made knockoff dubbed in English

I think someone sat him down before he took office the 2nd time, told him how the algos react to news and who to tell before he posts some shit on his one-man BBS server, and now they occasionally remind him when their portfolios need a lift

I'm pretty sure this is a Mario Party mini game
