People are just letting Ye get away with the Nazi stuff? Still buying shoes and waiting on his new music? Travis Scott brings him out like he didn't say he "liked Hitler"? Smh
Right like are our standards this low? He doesn't have to be Jay Electronica but can we expect a top-tier hip-hop star to rap something decent? To tell us anything more than randomly pieced-together generic stuff?
Listened to Utopia 2-3 times and it's mostly a jumbled collage of beat switches and "vibes." Read through the lyrics and Travis is hardly saying anything at all 70% of the time. 5-10+ artists working on every track, I can't tell/know what Travis actually did. Like even Kanye's bottom half of his...
Man, this video is so awesome. Highly entertaining
As for Auntie Diaries, I basically agree with everything this tweet said (posted earlier)
No it isn't like 100% politically correct, I guess, but the effort to tell this story and advocate this position in a historically homophobic industry...
There's several tracks on here with such different yet intriguing production. I find myself kind of smiling with a scrunch face in the car like "what was that sound?"
Initial reaction is that this is Kendrick's album about adulthood (a little like how GKMC was about his teen years). Some...
Just wrapping up part two. The nostalgia is hitting me heavily and I'm almost getting emotional at a few parts just remembering how much College Dropout meant to me and defined high school. Lots of white kids' entry into hip-hop. Remembering just how damn refreshing he was back then, this dude...
I chalk it up more to Kanye's current psyche. Just so all-over-the-place and spontaneous. Some of his verses on here are thematic but most seem like just a collection of phrases, which is it's own style I guess.
Dude, I respect LP so much. They crushed it in their prime. So many radio hits. I have no idea how they wrote so well.
A buddy and I were going to see them live the summer before Chester died, and we skipped out. Big regret.
IG influencer culture irritates me to no end normally, and this one just blew my mind. Brand called "Halfrican Apparel" using white blonde models. Anyone else find this disturbing? Or am I over-reacting? The founder has stuff on her website responding to the criticism but it's like... just use a...
You see this list? Making the rounds on Twitter.

Kind of a frustrating site. Some good recommendations but they amp certain artists that are really nothing special. And compare NBA YoungBoy to like Basquiat or Picasso.
Anyways...
Not sure why Bryson doesn't put his girl in more videos. She's super bad.

Currently digging this song from a kid from my neighborhood who's on the come up. 19-year-old Congo immigrant who started making music to deal with his anxiety. Kid can jam!
