Some say the greatest rapper, some say he peaked with vans

If you never listened to lil b I suggest streaming 6 kiss right now to see the modern blueprint of a lot of current hip-hop

If you have listened to lil b and still don’t like him then you’re fake based and shouldn’t be here anyway

Lil B’s prime run was 2010 through early 2014. When the 60+ tracks mixtapes started coming out, it was too much filler vs running down the excellent songs of that month’s or week’s new Lil B mixtape.

That being said, stuff like Platinum Flame is actually surprisingly great despite how “late” it is into his career.

Thugged out pissed off was his last tape before his apartment fire and also the last tape where he actually tries for longer than 3 song stretches. Platinum flame wasn’t bad compared to everything after it but it’s easily the worst of the flame series

If I remember the time period correctly tho didnt Lil B put loving Clams Casino on the map with his Im God? So thankful for that

Then Lil B came thru with Witness many years later which i think was supposed to be taken more seriously. i tihnk its pretty good.

and finally I seen That Light by lil B was just another actual good track similar to Witness

quote:

King of rap I can bet my money on that/ Can't face the facts that a young guy killing poo poo

I'm thraxx technically came before 6 kiss, but 6 kiss is era defining and created the sub-genre of cloud rap.

This opening salvo on the album starts off with Lil B declaring some heavy poo poo and I don't think he lied. The imogen heap sample loops around Lil b's (re)birth as an artist and the trials and tribulations that led him to already declare himself as the GOAT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pyops3UGr4

quote:

I guess I'm a showoff; take my raincoat/ I'm so wet that a pussy get mad at me
I'm God is the second part of the hardest one two punch in a album imo, and is the Id to B.O.R's ego, if these two tracks don't at least get you interested then idk if lil b is for you

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd2-BryIwFo

quote:

Different weather forcast, the change is drastic/ since I came from the bay where the weather is magic

Lil b is a backpack rapper too, you look at the album cover expecting ignorant pretty boy music and just from the first 3 tracks alone you get more variety than virtually all of rap the past decade. By the time you get to the end of the runtime you'll def get your share of ignorant pretty boy music though. 6 kiss could release in 2022 and still sound ahead of the pack and for his first real album it's one of the most accessible and well arranged projects in his catalogue. 10/10

quote:

Check my cell phone metro off the drat hook/ wanna learn about me bitch? go read my new drat book

The next recommended Lil B project is Blue Flame. The flame series is the flagship project of lil b where you get the most variety and depth, and every flame up to pink can be debated as a top 3 lil b album. Every flame has an amazing intro track and Blue Flame kicks off with a self produced loud minimalist beat eulogizing Lil B's criminal history, really isn't much to say except its hard as gently caress


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VR9IZ6IjWg


quote:

When we making money why is it given to the government?/ Got a new president but ain't nobody feeling him

sampling Joe budden's 'Anything Goes' (that he himself sampled from Lakeside's 'Visions of my mind') Lil b goes off on a 4 minute diatribe on how hosed it is living in america. Lil B was pondering on tax structures long before kendrick was on TPAB. Super underrated classic


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ab9DM23onBk

quote:

blah blah blah, blah blah blah

Another trait from lil b is taking beats from artists, dipset in this example, and doing it way better than they did. Of course Lil b ends up reversing the stances he takes on gun control in this song later in his career.


Blue Flame is amazing and easily in my top 4 mixtapes, probably the best entry point too for a new fan and doesn't overstay its welcome even with a 80+ minute runtime just from the beat choices and flows that rappers still haven't caught up to yet. 11/10

also marvel used this cover for one of their promo series leading up to black panther

this is kind of a stupid thing to say about a rapper but it's very funny how 05 gently caress em has both a track talking about loving and respecting everyone and another one about knocking a bitch out for asking for child support. the man is hard to pin down if you only know him by his music. also, frankly, he is the god of rap and the rawest rapper alive. i don't think anyone else comes close to his output and variety of styles.

Honestly, chronologically is the best way to absorb Lil b. You see the evolution and at times, stagnation, but there’s usually a few bangers on a given tape until the post-fire hiatus. Then it becomes kind of unmanageable w the amount of tracks in a given tape.

Crime Fetish and Trapped in BasedWorld are two great tapes.
