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 album together? Wow I'll definitely have to peep that.

Right on. I also checked El Leon. Mostly for the Preservation beats. He just dropped an EP of instrumentals as well.

:cheers: Finding out about and sharing new releases like that is what threads like this are all about. Share what you thought of it if you feel like it.

That's my favorite track of the year. Posting videos on this site is weird, it is Tick Tock Tick by Apathy. The entire album by is pretty good, but that beat is on another level. Fenwick and Never Change ft. Little Vic are also dope. Apathy is a really good MC imo.

I like the new Roc Marcy, don't love it. There are a few lazy/boring songs, but some really interesting dope ones too. Roc always picks unique beats to rap over. Animoss contributed two of the best in Goyard God & Tapeworm. The joint with Crimeapple is great.

This year’s been dreadful thus far; even Marciano’s newest falls flat. Profoundly underwhelming and I’m always TUCKED UP for him ( :pause: ).

Saw CRIMEAPPLE mentioned further up the thread: his flow and aesthetic are abominations of the highest magnitude. How he got Muggs beats is unfathomable.

Suppose there’s some goodies in the instrumentals.

So far, 2024 gets 1.3785/108 🎤’s.

Yeah that is a standout beat.

And the new Roc Marci was a bit of a mixed bag for me as well.

Not that I was expecting anything different, but new Ghostface is atrocious.

Even B- Tru Master beats would be better than this garbage

haven't listened enough times to pick the album apart but i like skate odyssey, champion sound, and locked in just fine. seems like there's a good album in here if it was just the 9 best songs. would have preferred to hear nas with ghost on yupp but we got what we got.

a good album is a stretch. i know we have different taste, obviously but even the most casual GFK has to be extremely disappointed in this work. the production is atrocious as well.

I heard the song with Nas (Scar Tissue) and liked it a fair bit, 7/10 track. Everyone told me how horrible the rest of album is, so I have no desire to listen to it.

Copywrite just dropped an album entitled The Last Supper. Only listened a couple times, didn't give it my full attention, but it had some cuts. He's a good MC. Beats could have been better.
