david111, do you have like-minded friends offline whom you listen to this kind of rap music around?

david111 · Post by **david111** » Thu Feb 16, 2012 3:32 pm

some of it. some of this stuff is more interesting to me as a story or for the production or w/e just like anything else
chief keef & king louie though, absolutely

that lil mister joint is apparently a southside on the track beat which explains why it was so good, although i'm not sure what track it was

there has not been a better 1-2-3 punch than chief keef's "3hunna" "i dont know dem" "winning feat. king louie" this year

Career Over Like Mike(NJJ) · Thu Feb 16, 2012 3:40 pm

I can't believe David hasn't posted the I Need A Hitta video by Katie Got Bandz in this thread considering he's A$AP Yams-ing her career.

Kid is insanely talented & that song is dope live, for w/e reason i wasn't feeling that song too much in its recorded version, but im looking forward to his full tape coming out soon. i caught him headline a sold out show at reggies a month back. i know Tree has some (one? more?) beats on the new tape, too

Its a few months old and most these people have been linked to in this thread but still, good list. Not sure about Kids These Day, who I'm assuming were put in for that all important Balance.

Biggest Revelation for me was Mikey Rocks:

A few blogs have been on about him lately but this converted me, nothing like the old soundalike Cool Kidz shit (which was actually not bad at times) at all. Hard as nails, even without the Boyz In The Hood sample.
