yeah i've been of the opinion that he's been slept on for a minute b/c the media was obsessed w/ the cool kids when they were 'new artists' but didn't give them time to develop and figure out their sounds. chuck has been putting out some crazy beats, and michael rocks has developed into a really good rapper. To wit:

he bodies this--(jump about 3 mins in)

got a crazy ski beat on this one

and this one

and Cardo really laced him here:

and 'cell dope' is too tough

Ok so it seems The Cool Kids are the precedent for this "maybe ASAP Rocky could be good if everyone leaves him the fuck alone for a few years" argument I've been pushing. As well as the "any hook with Wassup in it is gold" one, I'm liking that song particularly.

Cell Phone makes me think Mikey could kill some of those 80s columbian villain OST beats the bays been churning out lately. Gonna have to check out that tape

Say what you will about tyler the creator but he was smart to hold off on working with indusrty vampires for a year. He only worked within his own scene and put his friends on and got a label deal where he owns his publishing and masters. Keef/chop are going to let these dried up vampires/parasites like kanye, birdman, and jeezy suck up their buzz, throw them in a dumpster and move on to the next young thing they need to consume to stay relevant.

Hard to argue with that.

Apologies for stretching the thread, but it's worth it for Tenille sucking on a Chupa Chup.

this is true but tyler is also waaaaaay more charismatic (even if his music is sort of unlistenable) and he got the same type of collab requests and contract offers.

that keef does have the ability to write catchy songs would be more incentive for him to ignore the buzz suckers. I don't see how letting old man rappers use his regional hit as throwaway promo buzz for their comp is a good look for him.

david111 · Post by **david111** » Mon Apr 23, 2012 2:27 pm

I agree with that, except for the part about tyler being 'way more charismatic'

anyone been listening to disrespectful radio podcast? andrew barber (fakeshore dr), david drake (somanyshrimp) & ernest wilkins (chicago writer). 8-9pm central on tuesdays

lil reese & lil durk both signed to def jam. chief keef is being courted by ymcmb & will obvs sign w/ someone soon. who's next? i read king louie is on some sort of a label.. but it doesn't seem like any sort of a major, so he def seems like a candidate

It's an absolute abomination from top to bottom and front to back.
