Aug 4, 2020 Love these threads. i still looking for the feeling I got when I first discovered post Malone‘s Stoney.
Aug 5, 2020 Day 5: Mozzy - Winning (feat. Lil Poppa) Mozzy is on of my favorite rappers coming from the bay. This is a standout track from his 2019 project "Internal Affairs" and both, Mozzy and Lil Poppa are absolutely killing it. I would have posted "I Ain't Perfect", but this is a fairly recent song so I figured most of you have already heard that (if not, check out Mozzy's new album, now!!)
Aug 6, 2020 Day 6: DJ Mustard - Ice Cream (feat. Dom Kennedy & Ty Dolla $ign) Early Mustard got clowned for dropping similar sounding songs, but those were just the major ones with artists like Chris Brown, Kid Ink and everyone else, who was poppin in 2014/15. Anyways, his mixtapes got some gems on them, like this one from "10 Summers" . A nice westcoast summer song with Dom effortlessly flowing over the beat and Ty$ sounding good as always.
Aug 7, 2020 Day 7: Keyon Christ - they don't want us! Keyon Christ, formerly known as Mitus (producer of Kanyes "FML" and Rihannas "Goodnight Gotham") is one of the most underrates producers out there. His views are criminally low, even though he creates the sound of the future (he made the thing they now call hyperpop, before anybody else). This song is off his 2019 project of the same name and was also a rumored snippet for a kanye x cudi song before he released it.
Aug 8, 2020 Day 8: Pollari - South Of France I'm kinda drunk rn but I still managed to show you this b-----r. Pollari might be known for his Lil Peep collab but he has some bangers on his own. I love this song because SupahMarioh absolutely killed this beat and Pollari fits perfectly. Enjoy!
Aug 9, 2020 oh s--- this took me back. reminds me a need to revisit Dom's Yellow Tape one of these days, been too long
Aug 9, 2020 Day 9: T-Pain - Rest Of Your Life T-Pain is a legend. It is as easy as that. He influenced kanye's autotune shenanigans and basically paved the way for the use of autotune in hip hop, even though he got clowned for it (I'm still mad at Hov for dropping D.O.A). Sadly he doesn't get that much attention anymore but he still got it. When he released his mixtape "Everything Must Go" in 2018, I didn't expect much because it was just a compilation of unreleased songs. Oh boy was I pleasantly surprised to find out that this project is flames. One of the projects songs "Rest Of Your Life" should have been a radio hit and it's even more impressive that he also produced the joint. T-Pain will always hold a special place in my heart.
Aug 10, 2020 Day 10: The Game - Rollin (feat. Kanye West, Paul Wall, Slim Thug, Trae tha Truth & Z-Ro) Probably my favorite Game song that he released prior to his Jesus Piece album. The beat is insane, no wonder since Cool and Dre & Kanye himself produced that joint. 2012 Game was a beast and even to this day I like him (yes his constant name-dropping and cloutchasing is cringe as h--- but still).
Aug 11, 2020 Day 11: Nef The Pharao - Still I Rise (feat. Rexx Life Raj) Vallejo rapper Nef The Pharao has some great tunes and this is one of my favorites. Featuring Rexx Life Raj who's also an underrated artist (and who might appear in this thread on another day ), this song just feels real and delievers a strong and important message. Not much needs to be said, the song adresses it all and Nef manages to bring an honest approach to a sadly more than current topic while Rexx delievers an amazing hook and verse.
Aug 12, 2020 Day 12: Gallant - Hurt Since Gallant dropped his single "Doesn't Matter" with ASAP Ferg in 2018 I've been checking him out. He has an amazing potential, a compelling and memorable voice and his songs are bursting with emotions. Last year he dropped his album "Sweet Insomnia" and I'd recommend anyone to listen to this project. This is RnB in it's purest form. "Hurt" is my favorite song off the album and pretty much proves everything I've mentioned before. Fun fact: He has a grammy award nomination for his 2017 album "Ology".
Aug 12, 2020 gallant was on itunes when you first started to set it up, that’s how i discovered him. see em?
