It's kind of interesting though that there is some NY rap made nowadays that is able to put a spin on 90's era east coast beats but there isn't too much in the way of west coast acts that can re-create 90's era west coast beats with a 2015 twist.

Solid track!

9th Wonder is great. I was actually just reading an article about the 10 year anniversary of The Minstrel Show. I can't believe it's been 10 years already!

Anyone check out the new Scarface album? Pretty decent. He always picks really good beats.

Minstrel Show felt like it should have been Little Brother's coming out party. It's too bad they were already starting to go their separate ways at that point.

LB inspired quite a few artists that are popular now (Drake, Kendrick, J Cole)

[Kiran403]

Anybody rolling to Freddie Gibbs next week? It's a Monday night but I think I'm going to check it out anyways.

25th Anniversary Edition of People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm came out on Friday. ATCQ was on Fallon to perform, with the Roots backing them. Damn.

Damn...Kanye had a total meltdown on Twitter going after Wiz Khalifa. All tweets deleted now, but here are the caps. He obviously also opened himself to getting torched back in return given what he says. Spoiler because it's huge

Spoiler!

Edit: LOL at Amber Rose going after Kanye.

Spoiler!

[Kiran403]

hahaha ya that was pretty funny. Dude should definitely change the album name from "waves" though. That name is terrible.

[polak]

Tupac should have been a member of The XX!!!

[Senator Clay Davis]

Nothing better than a hard ass Premier beat. Especially when Jeru destroys that beat.

[FlamesAddiction]

My baby seems to love the instrumentation in this song. She goes bonkers.

Good thing she is to young to know cursing...lol.

Well, The Life Of Pablo is out. I'm halfway through so far. It's not bad but it seems to be all over the place.

Nice! I wasn't sure when it was coming out. Originally I thought it was Feb 11 but everything got all weird with the album name changes and the show at MSG. I will have to give it a listen.

Edit: Where are you able to listen to it at? I just went on Apple and Spotify and neither site had it. Please don't tell me this is some Tidal-only exclusive or some BS like that.

Yup, Tidal only for a week. I finally used my free trial.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Even Kanye knows Tidal sucks. Here it is sans Tidal

Apparently kanye is 53million in debt

[Senator Clay Davis]

He's having another Twitter meltdown, begging Mark Zuckerberg for $1 billion because he's the greatest living artist and greatest artist of all-time. He needs serious help mentally.
