What are some non-2014 rap songs you discovered this year?

[Rachel Hobozal]

[Jesse-velazquez]

I never noticed that the beginning to the Symphony Vid is the same beat the The Alkaholiks used for the track they did with ODB.
Niiiice.

[Jesse-velazquez]

It's dope hearing new old songs. I found these 3 this year. Crazy.


This Foul Play track really sets a tone for me. Pefect gloomy weather music.


Found This joint 2 days ago. Feeling this too.


And I never really messed with Mantronix, but I was sucked in with this one. Really, I just like that beat at the end, the one High & Mighty used on B-Boy Document.

Heard this track on those ego trip's singles compilations. Holy shit that beat..

^^ This is even harder as far as tuff drum machine Steady B songs from that era go:

Steady B - Just Call Us Def (1985)



Credited to Lawrence Goodman, but probably produced by Marley Marl.

Yeah I heard that one two. It's on the same comp. I'm a sucker for those 80s drum machine big beats.

I forget if this made any of those Ego Trip singles lists/compilations, but if not you need to know it:

Skinny Boys - Rip The Cut (1986)



Pretty much the missing link between Sucker MC's and Ruff Ryders Anthem. Or sumfink.

Skinny Boys
Great beat! Thanks for the suggestion

Legit Ballaz - Tattoo (2002)

Previously I'd only ever heard the remix with Twista of Tattoo. Finding that then inspired me to go back and parse the 3 Legit Ballaz compilations for gems like the 2 Twista songs from the first page of this thread and this:

Twista & Legit Ballaz - Legit Ballaz (1999)



Very underrated song in the lineage of steel-drum production raps.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Potna Deuce - Cool Thang (1994)



Feel like this is the spiritual sequel to Rated X's Be Cool To Your Girl.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

I made a Legit Ballaz compilation. Mainly based around the tracks that Twista or/and Ms. Kane appear on.

1. Legit Ballaz (1999)
2. Game Recognize Game (1999)
3. Get Ya (1999)
4. Mob N*ggas Don't Die (2001)
5. Getty Up (2001)
6. Ball Wit' Us (2001)
7. Tattoo (2002)
8. I Ain't The One (2002)
9. Fresh Off The Lot (2002)
10. Tear It Up (2002)
11. Ride Slow (2006)

Can't believe I never bothered checking this out until the other day.

Quality.

Puffy Dee - Joe Blow (1985)

https://soundcloud.com/unkut_dot_com_4/puffy-dee-joe-blow

Sassy white chick from Harlem pwning basic blokes over a Pumpkin drum machine beat that's essentially Spoonie Gee's Get Off My Tip 2.0 is pretty much a wet dream of mine.

Kudos to Robbie Unkut.

Thought this was going to be "Part of Me" by Royce.

[ADR]

Likely more recent than what this thread was intended for but I slept on the following:

Dat Boi T Feat. Young G & Doughbeezy - "Nothin' But That Screw" Official Video (2013)




SNUBBZ "STARZ SHOOTER" (2012)




Mozzy "4 Fanga Bangin" Official Music Video (2011)

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

That Snubz song is hawt.

Songs from the past couple of years are absolutely welcome here - see Gzus Piece's Gimme That Cash, RJ & Jay 305's I Feel Like, K Kutta's Lum Lum, and Priceless Da Roc's Yiken on page 1.

Which reminds me, I never bothered to check the Box & Swagga Fresh Freddie album back in 2011 because the lead single All The Way Live sounded like a Mike Shinoda song, and so I didn't hear this until earlier this year:

Box & Swagga Fresh Freddie - Get It Out The Mud (2011)



Better than the similarly titled track by Snootie Wild & K Camp, imo.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]
