Going through Roc Marciano's discography for the first time. He has some really incredible material. This song in particular blew me away:

 

He's got a new one out, I believe

Getting excited for STILL PRAYING next month

 

Crazy numbers again for Rod

 

crazy streaming numbers and I have heard absolutely zero people talking about it

it’s insane

 

yeah I know he’s very popular but I have never met a single person who listens to him

 

such a werid phenomenon

 

Fuck

 

Rod Wave rules. I didn’t know he had an album coming out

 

Somehow people got in on it. Enough to give him three consecutive #1 albums and packed out arena tours.

No idea where the exposure is coming from unless it's all just a loyal & hungry fanbase.

 

I decided to give schoolboy q’s latest album and it’s actually really good.

Kai Banx also has slowly went up my producer list. He only makes hits.

 

The Ka news is absolutely devastating, he was such an incredible writer

 

Just a perfect hip hop song.

 

thanks to Jon Denton I’m now aware of BigXthaPlug and I’m liking what I’ve heard

 

Yer man from Future Islands has a new album out...

 

Not that i'm listening to much rap outside of Ka at the moment.

 

Talking of Ka, this is a great article from Craig Jenkins...

Ka Dead at 52: The Brooklyn Rapper Was a Superhero (vulture.com)

 

Still loving Kings of the Mischievous South Vol. 2, "SKED" in particular

 

Yeat might have the best ear for beats currently. His new album really highlights that to me, even the songs I don't like as much, the production is still on another level.

 

Enjoying the new Yeat album a lot more than his last for sure. He brought that energy back.

 

I've tried Yeat and I just don't think that kind of hip-hop is for me
