good to see these two getting out of their comfort zone and talking about real life issues

@Hypebeasts @EminemSXN

yeah I tagged the em section, they need to see what a woman looks like that’s not Kim, Mariah, and Skylar.

this track made me grow mad hair on my chest just to shave it right off. No cappuccino

I feel like all these female artists just bite Lil Kim and Foxy Brown which was over 20 years ago lol. It's the same song on a different beat. If Jay-Z's first album was about his d-ck and then the lead single to his 2nd album was again about his d-ck, I might want to ask him to tell me something different. Maybe throw an elbow in there, a jazzercise class idk

I know, and I think we need to make a shift to actually get discussion going on here. Everyone circle jerks over whether or not Em like chocolate ice cream or not for 30 pages, and n----s talking about how Em got them into eating chocolate. And how no other rapper eats chocolate like how he does. I swear to god it drives me crazy

and f--- @SPACE BOUND he upsets me so much. f---.

@Grimace gotta be the commander in this movement

Cardi B was mildly entertaining the first year she came out. I now find her terribly unfunny and not very entertaining.

She has a closet where she sacrifices chickens which I think is very normal since @dna hits lives in a closet where he eats chicken

1. I don't know who you are (name change?)
2. I wasn't calling you brave, I was calling Cardi B brave...
3. Who is getting riled up? Presumably the same type of people who get riled up when Eminem uses the word fa----, or when gangsta rappers talk about shooting guns and shifting weight? Guys don't want to hear a woman b--- on about her p---- for 3 minutes, so its normal that a rapper like Cardi B doesn't have many male stans, but I literally don't know anyone irl who is at all "riled up" by artists like Cardi B or by black women rapping about their p-----s, lol.

Have you heard of Trina? She was a lot more sexual than any male rapper and hugely popular in the early 2000s. You're bleating about a problem that doesn't exist. Explain Trina's popularity if "black female sexuality" is being oppressed (by who, exactly?). Ben Shapiro hates all rap, and is just as harsh on male gangsta rappers. I don't know of any other public figures reaction to the song, so enlighten me. My bet is they are all conservatives who are probably religious so obviously they aren't going to vibe with an MC rapping about their p---- or d-ck. But it's not a "structural racism" problem nor the evil white man (or the shadowy forces of "white supremacy") oppressing and punishing black women who rap about their p----. It's Cardi B, I'm sure the song has gone straight to number 1. So who is being suppressed or oppressed exactly here and why?

I appreciate the kind words and yeah I wasn't at all attacking you.

After hearing that verse I'd say she's the best female rapper that drops music these days

Match made in heaven. Just needed a Nicki feature and the cypher would be complete.

 

Aug 8, 2020

Had no idea people would take offense listening to women telling us how they want to be pleased?

 

Aug 8, 2020

@EminemSXN tell me why Skylar gray lookin like a thin piece of 2x4 wood gets celebrated when she posts naked pictures now, but two black females taking their suppression and using it as a strength is a no no.

Yeah I’ll use this tag bc I want answers

When em dies, who they gonna listen to?!

1. Jehst - his debut album is considered by some to be the UKHH Illmatic - it's the first really interesting, lyrical, clever UKHH album released really (around 2001).
One of his songs (prod. by Beat Butcher)

2. Klashnekoff - UKHH legend. In the 2000s this guys was the dopest and hardest lyricist in London. His debut album is "The Sagas of..." is a UKHH classic. He dropped his 4th album last year, and imo it's one of the best UKHH albums ever. He's matured, and talks about more emotional topics than the debut LP (like his mother's illness/death, depression)...but he's still hardcore as f--- and lyrical as f---.
One of his songs (single from his debut that exploded him on the scene):

3. Lowkey - another legend. He's done songs with Immortal Technique and the Outlawz. Often very political/pro-Palestine, but I prefer his non-political s--- tbh. Like this b-----r:

4. Rhyme Asylum - some of the darkest, most lyrical rap in existence. Done songs with Ill Bill, Diabolic, Crooked I, Copywrite. This group is the best in the world at wordplay, but they can do great concept songs as well. Pure grit. Here's one I like:

I haven't been following US hip hop for a good few years now. I love Griselda (and related artists like 38 Spesh, Che Noir etc.) I think Joey Bada$$ is dope and I like guys like Your Old Droog as well, but outside of a handful I haven't heard or heard of many MCs from New York who have come out in the last 5 years. I sort of switched off from US Hip Hop when every new artists seemed to be either xanax addicted mumble rapper or a socially conscious pretentious c---- who is less intelligent than he thinks. But I'm sure there's some great talent coming out of NY recently that I've overlooked. I'd be very interested in checking out these more melodic but still lyrical Brooklyn MCs, if you have some song or artist suggestions you could give me.

Drill is pretty big in London, it's notorious as well because media links it to crime rate, which means the middle class know about it lol even though it seems to be made primarily by teenagers in gangs. I've heard a handful of songs people have played me, musically I liked it more than trap (but less than east coast hip hop sound) but lyrically it all seemed a bit basic and on the same subject matter (stabbing the "ops" in various ways). But it's a subgenre I'm interested in checking out a bit more, shouldn't hold a strong opinion if I've only ever heard 5 or 6 songs.

so J Hus, Giggs, Skepta, Stormzy I would class more as grime than hip hop. That's definitely not the type of rapper I'm thinking of when I say they come with a NY sound. Grime is kind of synthy/electronic carribbean and UK street inspired, much moreso than US inspired. But I differentiate between "grime" (which is a very british/london form of rap) and "uk hip hop" (which existed before grime, and which has always existed with plenty of quality, but which gets a lot less exposure both in the UK but esp in the US). UK Hip Hop is the stuff I would link to NY rap. This post is getting long so I'll list suggestions in a next post
