I’m sure this will grow on me a bit more, but had that middle run been removed?? Would’ve been such a better experience

Off 1st listen, this new JID starts and ends nicely

But that middle part of 4-5 songs… 😕

JID’s attempts at pop rap are worse versions of the worst Kendrick pop moments on DAMN & Morale

Sounds awkward and boring… I wouldn’t care much had it not been a q of the album of this

“Being alive I must look up
Even when thе fence too high
The sky from thе swings
Lock groove catch and release
How you know peace
Be lovers be anything”

The ending to this E L U C I D verse off Moonlight Crush… broooo 😮‍💨

Been on a big jazz tip today

Bumping classics from Pharaoh Sanders, Mingus, and Dolphy 🙌🏽

“They’re both nerds, and they both have good taste”

DJ Haram shares why she has such a strong personal and creative connection with E L U C I D and woods

We Buy Diabetic Test Strips is a masterpiece of beats and rhyme

Yeah we did a whole listening party for it for RMPP patrons a couple weeks ago

All three records, with ShrapKnel and some of the collaborators there

Was such a good time

Thanks for sharing! She was such a fascinating guest to have on, a really thoughtful person

Hell of a listen

@searchableandrew.bsky.social leading with the rap part of his arsenal on this new fused arrow album

Also incorporates a bunch of outside production from a plethora of the scene’s best talents

I like the change of pace, but still gives you that trademark soul I always come to andrew for

It’s cool how artists like phiik and Lungs, Sharif, and others fulfilled the prophecy of this Jeru track

We really have great rap tracks where the beat is some form of static chaos lol, I love how rap has evolved 🙌🏽

DJ Haram illustrates the core message behind her music

Throwing Bones is the best E L U C I D song some may never have heard…

In a RMPP Listening Party, @Curly_Castro suggested we play this song for sound check and WTF?!

The song was incredible, but also was completely unfamiliar

It was a SY loosie released on SC, check it out!

I’m loving this FOHDH Matthew x Wino Willy LP

This is my intro to Matthew, and he impressed w his confident delivery and descriptive imagery

Willy’s beats are nocturnal with steady drums, striking the perfect tone for the raps

The record is punchy and tremendously concise 💪🏽

This is a great closer to Alfredo 2

Freddie’s rumination on his rap mortality atop those mystical flutes was a perfect combination

I’m starting to strongly consider Alfredo 2 > 1 tbh… 👀

DJ Premier last night was 🔥🔥

Impressed by the energy despite his age

And it also served as a reminder that he’s a Top 5 producer all time

“Traumatized people get shattered”

@mike-eagle.bsky.social describes the central idea of NGU

And why the album’s subject matter meant so much to him

Al sounds reinvigorated on Alfredo 2, his best batch of beats in a while

Super lavish, great drums and keys in particular

Same thing with Freddie, he’s slicing these beats up

And JID on this song?!! 👏🏽

Other than being a bit too long, I’m satisfied with this second helping

👏🏽👏🏽

Awesome, super happy to hear that!!

Selling tickets to Clipping in Toronto on August 11th!!

Message me if you want them, will sell at a discount compared to the OG retail price 🙏🏽

This new $ilkMoney album man…

Going to the FME one, but I won’t be in town for the second :/

But word, I’ll see you at the FME thing!
