How was a British rapper's track unironically described as hard? For something more useful, I've been a big fan of Vado ever since he's made a poo poo ton of Cam'ron + him mixtapes the past couple of years. He raps about coke a lot but he's still got kind of a vintage mid/late 90's flow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRnV6lCpXRQ&feature=related Robert Analog fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Apr 27, 2011 |

warzero. posted:that's just a small sample of the songs, and i'm sure most of you are aware of at least lil' b, but my real question is, can you recommmend to me anything similar to these dudes in ways of style or production? also, i have almost all of lil' b's stuff so don't say download one of his other 352354234 mixtapes hahaha. thanks a lot NMD. Check out Young L (from The Pack with Lil B). His mixtape Domo Kun has lots of the weird, spacey production you're looking for: http://www.thefader.com/2011/02/28/young-l-domo-kun-the-mixtape/ Also try Spaceghostpurrp: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpUf5oZHWaA I dunno how far you've gone into the Main Attrakionz related stuff but Squadda B's tape 'I Smoke Because I Dont Care About Death' is great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHEGUVUBsCM This blog posts some general rap stuff but I'd say they are skewed towards posting the lo-fi, weirdo rap that's been coming out lately. A bunch of Main Attrakionz content if you go back a few pages: http://spaceagehustle.com/

alansmithee posted:Yo I think that says all anyone needs to know about your "cred" right there. Cause obviously all the hardcore dudes are def slanging on the mean streets of internet comedy forums. Just because your "territory" is surrounded by guns and army dudes don't make you poo poo bro. You might think you get some residual toughness but that's really not the case. I could go on in more detail at just how much of an idiot you are but really, at this point it's just mean (even more so than I normally am). I don't sling anything on the forums though, I try to pass some advice to help others have healthier plants. It's cathartic to talk shop with some level of anonymity. Look, I'm sorry to got you all butthurt because I mentioned that I identify with hustling. I grew up in a poor eastern-european country and came here to make my American dream work (lol immigrant cliche). To do this I've chosen to work in black/grey markets like many poor minorities. Working in such a market you tend to see certain things over time as your market share increases. That's all it is my man. I'd be a loving idiot to talk about anything illegal on the internet.

alansmithee posted:Also I just wondered, how much do the SF and Oakland scenes intersect? Like I know they're pretty close geographically but that doesn't always mean much. They have somewhat separate scenes that often work with each other. For many Bay Area rappers i'd say it's a "city first", "Bay Area close second" kind of thing, when it comes to what location they rep, and who they work with in their music. Serch is BACK! posted:depends on what part of the 'scene' you're talking about but in general it's almost like the bay is a dividing line... people are cool with each other but there isn't a ton of back-and-forth across the bridges and all that I think you're exaggerating things a little. Oakland, SF, Vallejo, Richmond, San Jose, Berkeley, East Palo Alto, Pittsburgh, etc, all have their own scene, but they all interact with each other to a large degree as well. It is one single metropolitan area...hell, SF and Oakland border each other, and lots of people in the Bay's black community (especially the poorest parts in SF, Oakland, Richmond, and some others) constantly move back and forth between those neighborhoods, and this includes lots of rappers. Half of the black population of places like Antioch and Fairfield for example are actually people who were priced out of places like SF and Oakland. Tons of videos shot by rappers from Oakland, Vallejo, Berkeley, etc, are filmed at least partially in SF too. You were also talking about San Quinn, and he was born in Oakland, but raised in SF for example...and yes he does get on tracks with Oakland people: Casual & San Quinn - Off the Pacific Philthy Rich ft. San Quinn & Stevie Joe - "California Soul" J. Stalin ft. San Quinn - "Posted" San Quinn - Hell Yeah (this one's produced by an oakland dude) he also makes entire albums with Oakland dudes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welcome_to_Scokland and here are some more SF and Oakland rapper collabs: Jern Eye ft. Spank Pops & J Billion - CALI J Billion ft Spank Pops & 1 O.A.K - Cali Way (the singer is from Oakland on this one) Big Bread Ed ft. JB Da Original & Stunnarifik - Black Tz And Hoodies ^and there are plenty more examples where those came from... Also, this record label: http://www.swtbrds.com/, which is behind up and coming SF rapper DaVinci, also has some Oakland rappers signed to it, and their in house production team has at least a couple Oakland dudes who are part of it. edit: but yeah i think you're right that the backpackers generally do a bit more intermingling. Serch is BACK! posted:also i mean there is just a much different attitude, oakland is a lot more about 'fun' musically you know? like i am from SF and i love SF but oakland is generally more about getting crazy and having fun whereas dudes from SF are usually either on some thugged-out poo poo or trying really hard to "MAKE YOU THINK" I dunno...during the hyphy days, Oakland and elsewhere was definitely more about it than SF itself was, but there was some Hyphy coming out of SF too, and people here were still listening to it as much as anyone else in the Bay Area was. Otherwise, the rapping/musical styles (backpacker, gangster, anything) in the Bay area are pretty similar no matter what part you're in.

Speaking of Eminem and Royce, on a related note here's the Ludacris and Slaughterhouse collab off the Fast Five soundtrack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Me9onGhqmI Only highlight really is Joey's verse, and the song is maimed by an absolutely awful hook.
