I am literally listening to El Leon for the first time right now. Almost done, it's a dope listen. I feel like Crimeapple's flow didn't match up with the beat on one of the songs, but aside from that butter. I never thought I would hear a new song with Sadat X on it. Hus and 9th Wonder released an ...

Just a place to keep track of and discuss what's dropped. What from this year have you listened to so far? Could be anything from albums to freestyles to music videos, rap battles, etc. What's good? Bad? Memorable? Forgettable? Here's some of the bigger projects that were released in January: al.div...

Aesop Rock – Integrated Tech Solutions Armand Hammer – We Buy Diabetic Test Strips billy woods & Kenny Segal – Maps Blockhead – The Aux Children of the Corn – Welcome to the Dangerzone Danny Brown – Quaranta Earl Sweatshirt & The Alchemist – Voir Dire El Michels Affair & Black Thought – Glorious Gam...

Nice call. Good early one too. Thanks for keepin' this alive.

Thanks for the props! As for the other Doo Wop freestyle I missed that one completely, I'll try my best to hunt it down! Others with freestyle in the title that you'd understandably cut (as they are more songs than anything else and are available elsewhere) but I'd be remiss not to mention: Da Free...

Thanks for putting together that Finesse freestyle comp. Only others with freestyle in the title that I can think of that're missing: BLVD. Mobb Freestyle from Down For the Underground (Remix), which isn't really a freestyle anyway, and the '95 Doo Wop Freestyle from Is New York in the House? which ...

Glad to be of service, fellas.

Requesting a download for the Tribe / Wu (10/08/96) show.

If ya just need the track itself.

Yeah, I didn't know how much I needed this to happen. All three have been dope from intro to outro and laced with fun facts, as Prince Paul calls them. Like Eazy-E wanting to sign Gravediggaz, Q-Tip writing for Paul on De La's first album, why Paul felt the need to create skits (as well as their ori...

Oh right, forgot about that bullshit. Pretty sure you could grab it through a web proxy without much trouble but here's a mirror nonetheless: https://mega.nz/file/oc5A0Qbb#gY3ju-F8j ... v7AmpkQ6_U

V2 VBR scene release from the CMS rip of the VLS (it's the radio / clean a capella): https://www9.zippyshare.com/v/Pt5Kp4Lo/file.html

Good list Ted, I'll peep the couple I haven't. IDAL, thought you'd dig at least a few tracks from that. Brandon, obviously I've known about Discogs for years. You just made it seem like it was more than one guest produced track from Polo. Heard Eto's output from this year, he's been fun to watch pro...

The nice thing is everything is still out there style-wise, Griselda is just one of the prevailing themes right now. The amount of, and quality of, and aesthetics of, music is going to get more and more stretched and fractured and nuanced as it becomes increasingly unmanageable to keep up with. That...

That's what I would've guessed. Pullin' More Stringz just says "Comin' Soon" on his site so who knows when that's actually droppin'. Thanks for the list of suggestions. I will try to check out all of these throughout the rest of this year. Nowadays, my preferred way to consume new Hip Hop is either ...

Wais P x Statik Selektah- Chinchilla EP This has been on the ever growing list. ...some of my fave 2020 loosie singles (i.e. they don't currently belong to any album, mixtape, or EP) Hm, I'll allow loosies for the time being, but still more interested in using this thread for listing and discussing...

There are still many artists cranking out mixtape after mixtape of shit-to-average quality songs, with sometimes one or two highlights per project. I'm starting to become a believer in the multiple-times-a-year EP format. Just keep it short and sweet, don't have it be bogged down with filler and co...

IDAL, thanks for the quick relink to the Quik episode of Unsung, ended up watchin' it before Dre Day 2020 fully took off for me yesterday (in case the same kinda removal happened again.) Unsung always seems to do a decent job with these things. Some things get left out or glossed over but nobody els...

Today is Furl's 50th birthday. For the longest time I've been looking for a DVD called Town Bidness: The Movie Vol. 1 (2005) from FriscoStreetShow but the internet has no idea what I'm talking about. So if anybody knows where I can get that, it's been a grail of mine for way too long. I'm even askin...

2020 Recap (Halftime) The real wrap-up comes at halftime. :pause: I'm loving the Koreatown Oddity's new album. That was on my "to check out" list but I bumped it up the queue thanks to the recommendation. Great idea for and execution of a concept record. I'll have to give it a few more spins to ful...

Might seem silly to be reviewing the media we've consumed from this year when we've just now reached the midway point but it helps to break the math in half. This is not the thread for singles, we already have threads for those. This is for longer projects. What have you heard? What have you been me...

Super Mario Maker 2 has been out for a year now, that still keeps my interest on a regular basis. Did a write-up for the anniversary here: https://massmediaconsumption.blogspot.com/2020/06/year-anniversary-of-mario-maker-2.html (It features a list of YouTubers I like, an infographic I did, and a You...
