Now with 2x the purity!

A sensible title, though if it was to be truly hip-hop wouldn't it need a convoluted phrase after the II?

Hard Knock Life
Life and Times of S Carter
The Gift and the Curse
The Legend of Mr Rager
Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version
Tical 2000: Judgement Day
The Great American Rap Album Pt 1
Return of the Ankh
etc

Anyway, here's a funny Twitter account - https://twitter.com/WayneRapsLike

Uncut raw shit right here, nothing stepped on.

(I have no idea what means. I just heard Jeezy say it and thought it sounded cool.)

What's peoples rankings for hip-hop so far? Been a solid year with more I need to get to, more I need to revisit and more to come

Kanye West - Yeezus
Run the Jewels - s/t
Chance the Rapper - Acid Rap
Inspectah Deck and 7L & Esoteric - Czarface
ASAP Rocky - LongLiveASAP (you put Goldie, LVL, Fuckin' Problems and 1 Train on an EP and it would probably be my #1 release of the year)
Danny Brown - Old
Tyler - Wolf
Earl - Doris
Jay Z - Magna Carta

Really feel like I'm forgetting a couple. Earl I've only heard once, same with Old and MCHG (latter of which I won't be going to). The Goodie Mob and Pusha T records are top of my list to check out next, as well as Joey Badass' latest mixtape.

I'd through Ferg in the convo, but really it's Kanye/Danny/Chance and then everyone else. Acid Rap and Yeezus probably have more combined spins for me than any other two albums this year.

Hov shouldn't even be mentioned.

LMP · 10-22-2013, 12:24 PM

A$AP Rocky, too. Magna Carta is garbage.

Glad you got on Chance. I like that record a lot.

I can confirm that the entire reason I've ignored Ferg is because it's called Trap Lord. Really don't like that genre.

MCHG is a stinker, yeah. I laughed when I read Kanye wanted to put one of its few salvageables (Oceans) on WTT. Dude knows what's good. I also laughed when Rick Rubin essentially shit on it.

Imperor · 10-22-2013, 07:01 PM

If you dig the production on Rocky's album, you're gonna dig Ferg's. It's not a trap record.

As for Chance, yeah I love the dude. Tons of great shit on that one, with "Chain Smoker" and "Smoke Again" as favorites. Donald's been hanging with him a lot, so hopefully some of Chance's musicality rubs off.

cobl04 · 10-22-2013, 07:17 PM

Might peep a few tracks, I like half of LongLiveASAP. You heard of Iggy Azeala by the way? She's an Australian rapper, she dated Rocky and is doing big things. Not really my thing though.

Chain Smoker is the absolute tits.

LemonMelon · 10-22-2013, 07:32 PM

Iggy Azeala is the white Nicki Minaj.

Run an image search and you'll see why in < 1 second.

LMP · 10-22-2013, 07:36 PM

"Acid Rain" is currently stops for me off the Chance record. It's been a killer year for hip-hop releases.

Gotta shout out the new J. Cole, unfortunately released the same day as YEEZUS, and Travi$ Scott.

PhilsFan · 10-22-2013, 07:53 PM

I'm listening to Long Live ASAP now for the first time.

bono_212 · 10-22-2013, 10:31 PM

Unfortunately, Kanye and A$AP are the only hip hop albums I've heard this year. Not super big on either of them, though the former is leaps and bounds better than the latter.

bollox · 10-22-2013, 10:59 PM

Am I the only one that dug 12 Reasons to Die by Ghostface? Not one of the year's marquee releases, but I found it quite enjoyable.

cobl04 · 10-22-2013, 11:01 PM

I forgot about that one. I listened to it once and it was pretty enjoyable but I haven't gone back to it.
