JGPLX. Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Really good collab album by Dilla and Madlib, they both produce and rap half the album. Worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grenade. Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Even though most of his sons are for comedy, Lil Dicky is legit a great rapper. His flows are crazy, and when he actually makes serious songs man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drive slow Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 ALLA sounds pretty dope so far. Amazing beat selection as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamthyst Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Just listened to ALLA all the way through and it's really good. I liked every song on his last studio album and the same will probably apply to this after I listen to it more than once. I've never been disappointed on production on any of his projects and it goes the same for this. The first two songs start off a bit slow/depressing but are still good, still doesn't take away from how good the album is but it's just something I noticed. It's a solid release from Flacko, but I don't think it beats TPAB for me as best album of 2015 so far, but it'll be up there in best rap album categories though.

Monkey D. Jiggy Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 What do you guys think of this? Love it at the first listen, which is rare for me. Picking up his album later this week, if it gets on Spotify. It's a great first half of 2015 with Kendrick, Tyler and Rocky's releases, probably my top-3 favorite rappers right now.

Crack. Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Damn, was hoping Electric Body would be as good as Hands On The Wheel or Brand New Guy. The team of A$AP Rocky and SchoolBoy Q is so nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Vercetti Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Got around and listened to Rocky's album and I dig it. Some tracks are eh but for the most, it's a straight album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamthyst Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Electric Body is my favorite song on ALLA. Q and Flacko need to collab an album together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Newhouse_ Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 ALLA is the AOTY imo. Kendrick's album may have been put together better but Rocky's album is just a little more enjoyable to me. Top 3 for me would be Excuse Me, Holy Ghost, and Wavybone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly didn't like this song, but I'm hopeful Rocky will pull through. I did love his mixtape, and do think he is one of the better lyricists out there when it comes to mainstream hip-hop. Tyler is an incredibly creative artist but as a rapper? Eh, I wouldn't say he's in my top-3. He lost that chance a while ago for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenade. Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Tyler is really great as a rapper sometimes (Yonkers, Colossus, Answer etc). And he's almost always a great producer. He's just one of my favorite celebrities in general because of his creativity and personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's purely personal preference for me when it comes to Rocky and Tyler. Especially the latter, there are tracks that I find absolutely ridiculous, but I just really enjoy listening to him. Kendrick is probably the only rapper I am a fan of a At the sam. e, I can't listen to J. Cole at all. He's no fun. He produced HiiiPower right? That's probably one of my least favorite beats Kendrick rapped on, not counting features. BfinishBackspace on a phone is cacancecancer *Censored* this.

He's just one of my favorite celebrities in general because of his creativity and personality. Yeah, he has his brilliant moments for sure. "Answer" is a fantastic song, but I feel he compromises too much. He just resorts to his usual schtick far too often, or doesn't rap with the same level of passion / interest that he did on "Bastard", for me to consider him great. Jiggy: J. Cole's always been a bit weird, to me. He has flow, and can be a compelling rapper every now and again, but just doesn't interest me all that much. People make him out as if he's a messianic rap figure, when he's not that philosophically, or lyrically, great nor deep to be deservedly seen as one. At least imo. HiiiPOWER is a fantastic beat, though. One of my fav Cole instrumentals to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey D. Jiggy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 It's too unimaginative for me. Maybe it's me just really wanting trippy beats, but everything about J. Cole comes across to me as that guy who is so real, it becomes annoying how real he is. Part of that is his fanbase. But I still haven't picked up Forest Hill Drive because it just doesn't interest me. Hard to explain for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenade. Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 So Joe Fox was homeless when he met Rocky (and didn't even know who he was) at 4am on the street and sold him his mixtape, and that night Rocky invited him to go to the studio with him, and he ended up on 5 songs on the album. And ended up working with Rocky, Kanye, MIA, Future, and some huge producers. And Rocky is letting him live at his house in the meantime. Rocky changed this dudes life man.
