Lmao, the surprise album is way better than the last "real" album. Way to go Em!

I wonder if he will ignore or bury MGK.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

It is, it really is, but the beats are ridiculous. The style is alright too (thinking Future) but it's like they are recording the bullshit drunk freestyles putting them on a dope beat and trying to call it a song imo. That's not always a bad thing but it seems like all they do.

Still mad about Teriyaki 69 ruining get the strap.

Finally listened to it, hard to imagine Em not going in on him for that. But you gotta love a diss track where the guy calls you the goat and puts you in everyones top 10.

RIP Mac Miller, not a surprise, but still sad.

Not terrible, but not really my type of music imo.

He had some tracks I really liked though like this one.



But when you listen it's also clear why it wasn't a surprise for me.

He sonned em. Literally.

I think Em could have went harder but he wanted to drop something sooner than later. The main thing that sets Em apart is his rhyme schemes though. So much new rap is AABB or ABAB or just AAAAAAAAAAA, that Em has so much variation even in individual songs are what lifts him above most popular rappers (save your k-dot's and coles)

Em says he doesn't subliminal but all the nut and dick talk was definitely about rumors that Diddy is like Baby in that they exploited their position for sexual opportunities.

Basically that MGK had to gargle diddy dick to get the little shine he's got.

Should've went with his gut imo

That's what I mean. Just be straight up. I guess I'm still spoiled from Pac vs Biggie or Nas vs Jay Z.

MGK did his thing no doubt. Em bodied. But it felt...not right. Does that make sense?

Yeah it wasn't canibitch, but it feels like what the game needed more than a canibitch imo.

I still listen to Hit em Up to get hype though and I probably wont listen to either Rap Devil or Killshot 5 years from now so I know what you're saying.

Depends, the question can get deeper than that, like is it rap that you're looking for, or hip hop? If you want to really know, you can thank all the DJ's and MC's back in the early 70's for starting "hip hop". But some people will say it started in the 20's with Charley Patton, some people will say it started with DJ Kool Herc, then RAP, rap, mostly started with Eazy-E, NWA, Run DMC (which was also hiphop).

Rap started as MCing for block parties in the Bronx in the 70s after black people moved North in the 60s and 70s. The first popular rap song is Rapper's Delight. It spread as more and more people liked it.
Can it be I stayed away too long? Did you miss these rhymes while I was gone?

would Cassius Clay's 1960s banter be considered rap?

It could be considered rap. Before it became commercialized, the culture was already there. Rap is the product. Hip hop is the culture.

Yeah, ZerOCoolSC2 is right. Interestingly, there is also a broader genre of music called hip hop(as opposed to strictly rap, which is a subcomponent) with more emphasis on beats and instrumentals, such as Endtroducing.

Also rap I think has to be over a beat of some kind. If Muhammad Ali had slapped his chest or something to form a beat it would have been rap.
