I love me some Billy but I can get how his style might not work after a while.
If y'all know anything else to check let me know, kinda starving for hip-hop recs this year tbh.

“Potz doesn't rate him, His least redeeming feature”
Don’t discount that I like his early work and other projects. The same could be said of like 90% of the hip hop artists I like - very few of them have recent output that still interests me

@marskid
Moor Mother - Jazz Codes
Onyx - 1993
Probably my two 2022 favs
I also liked Chain of Command by Wifigawd

My hip hop ratings are probably horribly outdated, I'm due to deep dive at some point when I get the time.
My top Woods albums are Hiding Places and Known Unknowns lol

For very recent stuff I generally find uk hip hop more attractive, last years Cult of the Damned and Swamp Harbour albums were both great
|
| |
Oh yeah also new Mejiwahn - Beanna is great, though is mostly instrumental and as much hypnogogic pop and plunderphonics as it is hip hop

Same tbh , Im at the point where I find so much doesnt move me as much, especially straight newer boom bap stuff and Ive never been into the 'Bigger' kinda commercial MCs on the whole but the UK scene has been so great for the last 5/6 years.

Siul Hughes is a great underground rapper I enjoy, worth a try if y'all ever get the time. Nothing from this year but his 2021 EP is a banger.

I did a big rant about some of the reasons that old school rappers modern output doesn’t do as much for me but another thing that I didn’t mention is that I fucking hate dad bars. Like listening to Black Thought rap over beats that sound all too familiar but done better and fresher a million times before to begin with isn’t much elevated by the fact that old school rappers are like 50 now and it really shows through their lyrics. Just makes me want to listen to their old stuff.
|
| |
At least black thought doesn’t try to be hard tho, the worst is when 50 year old rappers try to sound hard still. Except sticky fingaz. Sticky will always be hard af lmao.
So theres 50 year olds tryna sound dad hard and then there is overly conscious dad rap both of which make me cringe

I like that uk shit tends to be hard but self aware and cheeky, and I just like the production trends better than what’s going on in NA

Yeah they always used to sound american, once they found their own style and embraced it it became far more listenable for me....like Blah records stuff etc
|
| |
^ yup
Although that Blak Prophetz album I think I sent you does still sound kind of American and it really slaps
