Hip Hop Discussion Thread
those are my favorite songs by retch lol, but I can't stand when people say Drake can't rap.. I'm not even big on drake like that.. but this new shit he dropped is fire.
Anyways, PSG was obviously Retch's best project, but Da$h has been more consistent, so far. We'll see how FTW is, only song that is nice off it so far is Hunnit Bandz. Sometimes that kid can be too reckless for his own good.
Mr. Wonderful is gonna be something amazing man, gonna see Action, along with Dash, retch and many others at "Rolling Loud" in Miami.. Bout to be wild.
My favorite artist, Cyhi The Prynce, dropped a new mixtape and he delivers big time, like always.

When I listen to rap/hip-hop I wanna hear some real shit, lyricism, a crazy story, and or some sentimental shit. There's a difference between sentimental and soft shit too. But I got other genres for sentimental stuff like Rock and R&B, so most of the rap/hip-hop I listen to is the first three categories I mentioned. I'm not missin out by any means cuz I don't limit myself to one genre.
And it's not like I don't listen to Drake, he's everywhere so it's impossible not to hear his shit but I'm in no rush to peep his new shit cuz he isn't an artist I tend to keep up with.

What are your fav artists outside of hiphop?
So you're obviously a fan of Biggie, one of the realest dudes out there. How do you feel about big L? Pharcyde&Felt are hot too
This dude:

And Hopsin are my fav lyricists.
I'm not the biggest Drake fan, I want to try and listen to his new album without any preconceived notions though.
Big L and Biggie are them niggas. Big L would've been bigger in the underground scene cuz he didn't have someone like Diddy take him under his wing and show him how to appeal to a wider audience but in terms of delivery and lyricism I got Big L and then Biggie. That '97 freestyle with Jay-Z is unmatched, Big L's verses were ridiculous. I'm a huge Jay-Z fan and even though he was young that shit was trash from him.
his best:

"mad hoes, ask Beevis I get nothing Butt head"
Yo Windex if you like Hopsin and that white nigga (forgot his name off top but he's smart as hell) you'll like these two artists Capital Steez and MF DOOM.
R.I.P. KING STEELO.
