YG Thread

[ackbar]

2013 was a big year for YG. My Krazy Life scheduled to be released by CTE on March 18, 2014 & a joint mixtape with Nipsey Hussle coming soon as well
apparently dj mustard is producing 90% of the record. new single has drake on it w/ a rappin' 4-tay flow

[blastmaster]

Approved. I still jamm "Toot It and Boot It" when I'm feeling sultry.

[blastmaster]

Why the album title change?

[ackbar]

not sure but 'welcome to bompton' is a superior title

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

YG - I'm 4rm Bompton



YG & Young Jeezy - Fuck You



YG w/ TeeFlii - Sprung



Would also these 3 tracks as essential YG in 2013. He's a bit of a nebulous personality as a rapper ("scary Tyga!"), but he made a bunch of 5 star general jams in 2013.

no reference to who he got the flow from in the song

[ackbar]

what on earth are you talking about? you think drake should've said "i'm at the player's club with 4-tay" in the damn song??

forgot this one.. one of my fave mustard baselines of the year

[Escobar305]

lol @ u thinking his core fan base knows players club

[ackbar]

nah. of course they don't
it's not like he's tryna get away with something tho. he modelled his entire verse after a classic rap song

I went to this dude's release/birthday party last night. Nice dude. Not feeling his music.

[observe911]

His song with Kendrick dropped today...K Dot killed him..he's not a good introspective rapper, only good for function music

[hellriser]

album leaked - so far is damn good

[ackbar]

nice gotta get the d/l ready at work

[Gyangsta 4 Life]

Where did I read that he's one of the most Shazam'd rappers right now (probably cuz "My Nigga") and is destined to blow. ?

edit: here it is http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/ ... t-20140220

The company's charts first predicted Los Angeles rapper YG's career would take off in 2011 and remain bullish based on its internal data; his "Who Do You Love" recently hit Number Two on the company's new hip-hop chart. "He's going to be huge," says Stephen Titmus, Shazam's music manager.

[ackbar]

1AM & When I Was Gone are my jams

[vinylfiend]

Im not much of a yg fan but this album dope, good variety of tracks

[ackbar]

you should prob check some if his mixtapes. maybe you're a fan & you just don't know it? it's not really a departure from anything else he's done

[vinylfiend]

I like most of just reuped 2, not much of part 1. which other ones is there? Too bad he beefin with problem cause he shoulda been on this new lp.

[ackbar]

Reup'd 2 is his best tape
after listening to the album again i think 'bicken back being bool' might be my fave

[Escobar305]

albums bangin

Me too. Also love Really Be (Smokin' N Drinkin'), and Meet The Flockers.

I'm 4rm Bompton is so much better than BPT, though (and I like BPT!). The former should have been the album's opener, while the latter should have been the deluxe edition's bonus track.

[ackbar]

album has me revisiting this classic...

[DJCommunist]

Bompton, Really Be, Who Do You Love, My Nigga, Meet the Flockers, Bicken Back Being Bool. Surprisingly good

[Escobar305]

[ackbar]

tight ass video

[blastmaster]

Yea that is one of the better videos I've seen in a while. It's no Slot Machine, but nice work.
