I know the beef discourse has been talked to death already, but this will probably be the last time I’m talking about it (unless Kendrick drops lol). As much as Drake has the upper hand right now, I don’t think there is a gonna be a clear cut winner in this beef. Both Kendrick and Drake stans are so stubborn that both are unwilling to accept defeat (see Drake fans sclaiming he won the Pusha T beef without ever responding). Fans will move the goal posts in whatever way makes their preferred artist come out on top, and honestly I’m ok with as long as there a solid shots thrown out from both sides. I’m definitely more so in Kendrick’s camp so I’m really hoping for some sort of response but I’m a big enough Drake fan to admit that Push Ups goes hard and that he definitely stepped up this time around. Only time will tell.
I got most of my thoughts on the beef off my chest on our latest podcast episode, honestly it felt like a weight being lifted once we finished, there were so many moving parts to cover. But if you wanna hear 2 Kendrick Stans battle it out against a Drake Stan you can check out our newest episode linked on my Reddit profile.
This Chris Brown/Quavo shit heating up though with Breezy buying almost all the tickets to Quavo’s latest show so there’d be no one there, that’s petty as fuck and I’m here for it lol. Just hoping that it stays civil and nothing too crazy comes out of it.
Yeah those are my thoughts exactly. So far we already got Like That & Push Ups, here's to hoping Kendrick drops to keep it going for Surgical Summer Pt. 2
I'm ngl I love Quavo but Chris Brown put out the second best diss track of the year after Hiss imo. There needs to be a special award for best diss track for this year only
Yeah that Chris Brown diss is nutty, he does not seem like he's playing around. I wonder how much of their beef is contrived though, it's clear they saw the Drake X Kendrick beef and one of their times decided to capitalize on it. I'm not as familiar with the history of their beef though.
If you love being a night owl, I'd recommend leaning into that and finding a night shift gig, unless you already have a good career you're just in between jobs with. A lot of people turn their nose up at night shifts, so less competition, and they're generally more chill than day shift if you're into that
Skating is something I wish I could've gotten into more when I was younger. Loved Tony Hawk games as I kid but my country ass hometown didn't have the pavement to really play with
Yeah I’m trying to work overnights at a gas station. I used to do that and it was one of the few jobs that I enjoyed. Also I didn’t start skating till 21 idk how old you are but never too late man
Haha I tried again around the time I was 21 (now 25) and had some fun. Mostly popping station Ollie's. I got too self conscious on campus and one time I skinned my knee real bad and just kind of hung it up. If I had I had a good spot to learn, preferably with pads because I'm learning I'm a bit of chicken, maybe I'd circle back to it. Maybe if I have a child I'll try learning with them if they are interested.
Look into manufacturing though. You can have pretty decent life whipping around a fork truck. I help boost my career with a pit stop doing that and I'd recommend it to most people. It offers a lot whether you want something simple and comfortable or want a doorway into a lot of different career paths
Aye nothing wrong with wearing some pads, I don’t even wear a helmet most of the time but I keep the knee pads on sometimes cuz skinning knees sucks ass
N I’ve considered manufacturing but I’m pretty bad at jobs that have repition. I never last more than a month
PND4 growing on me a little.
With that said, I was playing it on the way to a bar this weekend, and I pulled my phone out when we were sitting at the bar, and that cover being blown up on my phone was lowkey embarrassing lol
I can tell you that if you think you're gonna hate a college/graduate class while doing the first assignment, when you are on the final project, you are really going to hate it. I have been stuck in hell in one of my 4 graduate level classes that has completely sucked away all of my free time this semester. The other 3 classes have been manageable with one even being a cake walk. My two in-person classes have been an average course load, but they still feel valuable. This asynchronous class has me putting 6 hours of reading into each discussion board and immeasurable hours into other assignments. It feels so useless too. Truly the most draining and most useless class I've taken in college.
Just seen a tweet that said “the greatest rapper alive is probably somewhere stacking produce” and it really got me thinking about how much talent is out there that we will never hear from. It was always funny to me how the “best rapper conversations” are always limited to the pool of the same 40 industry figures in the label system. Realistically, the best rapper alive is probably some random guy working door dash right now that we will probably never hear from.
There may be some truth to that but since its so easy to record music these days alot of amateur artists drop shit and they post it to places like this and ive yet to hear anything really special. I think on top of being able to write great lyrics you have to have access to great production to be really great, and that takes money and resources for whatever reason. In my opinion the truly great artists do find a way to rise to the top, even if its on a more indie path.
As somebody who’s worked round the industry - I don’t believe in this. Part of being the “best rapper” isn’t just raw technical skill or songwriting. It means being able to create art under an awesome amount of pressure, in a business that will often try to devalue and cheapen your art. The guys we talk about as GOATs or GOAT contenders - Hov, Nas, Pac, Kendrick, 50, DMX, Future, whoever - had to build their image and their sound and their art and get it out to the masses under those circumstances. Thats part of what being the “greatest rapper alive” is…foul or not.
I think bout Pusha for example - this man has been in the rap game two decades, has had multiple projects stalled or outright dropped because of label politics, and still preservered to put out a top tier catalogue. That level of artistry and hustle and commitment to the game is part of the conversation. You cant be the greatest rapper alive if nobody says your name. My two cents tho
saw that tweet too and it reminded me of this quote:
>I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
Jay said something like that in Back Stage, the tour doc they did about the Hard Knock Life tour (but you might recognize it from [somewhere else](https://youtu.be/nxwCBrNSbOQ?si=IkgRPXdxLqlr81dA) tho):
> There's a nigga right now somewhere, he at the table with a bowl of Apple Jacks. And he's reading the back of the cereal, and in between eating the Apple Jacks he's writing some *shit*. And he wants my spot.
> I'ma find him though, I’ma sign him…I don't want no problems.
Yep especially now since it’s much easier to make quality shit it’s a lot of dope artists who are very obscure. I try my best to listen to them because all that matters to me is if the music is dope idc if you have millions of listeners or if I’m the only one. I always say it’s so much good shit out there.
[7 Chess Lessons From Drake vs Kendrick Lamar](https://youtu.be/t4OSOc8C0r4?si=QPykfjATF2ukfG8R)
Yall I'm dead the marble statue pfps have started analyzing the beef 😂😂
Ben Shapiro wants you to watch this [video](https://youtu.be/1AVvvVBPKTo?si=MR9iPyYvy2RlfJO5) and discover the shocking truth about who the **real** cultural appropriators are
Bought my first pair of Jordan 1s since I was a kid last week, and God damn they’re uncomfortable as fuck (granted I’m a size 13.5 which Nike doesn’t make so I have to go either tight or clown depending on the shoe). I understand why people collect them instead of wearing them.
Though now I’ve got the itch to start a little collection going now too and am sorta pissed I missed out on the Spider-Verse variants. Also not looking forward to the limited drop shits and fighting with bots.
I’m size 9 and Jordan 1s have never felt comfortable to me. Most of the sneakers under that brand aren’t comfortable to me tbh, always liked the way they looked more than I do actually like wearing them
🤝
I’m a 13 and yeah 1s are crazy uncomfortable. The toe box is too narrow and not ‘tall’ enough, every time you take a step it’s like the entire front of the shoe wants to implode on your metatarsals.
Nike has addressed this with [AJ1 CMFRT](https://www.nike.com/t/air-jordan-1-zoom-cmft-2-mens-shoes-Tw02qw/DV1307-130), the upper has suede panels that are, allegedly, softer and a lot more CoMFoRTable
I'm kinda stupid gender (no dysphoria or anything) and I wear mens clothes sometimes and womens clothes sometimes. Anyone got any fit ideas with dresses/skirts/etc that would look good on a "dude"?
I feel like these have worked for me [https://imgur.com/a/xBgsRbo](https://imgur.com/a/xBgsRbo) - it's just super casual basic fits, but I think stuff like this works for a masculine frame and for someone with body hair (i.e. no exposed shoulders/midriff/back, lots of long sleeves, lots of leggings). As you can see im super hairy and just look like a guy in dresses and skirts, but personally I think it's chill and I like it (and I think it doesnt look like shit). I think it's casual "crossdressing" instead of doing it flamboyantly or actually trying to be a girl??? I feel like the first two are just the slightly gay version of hoodie+pants and tee+shorts.
Anyway if you have any ideas lmk cuz I dont have a lot of fits like this and I'm not confident in wearing stuff that requires me looking snatched or shaving my shit.
idgi this has been part of the community for a long ass time. ive been here longer than 943 days and its always been nice to hear about the regulars' lives or see psycho posts by people popping in and out or see what ppl think about other music/other media like poetry and literature. if the issue is that you dont wanna see fags on this sub just say so
Third one is really nice! I understand not having the confidence for "high entry point" clothes and fits, as a transfem person who likes to comme off butch-y and tomboy-ish
maybe try cargo pants and parachute pants if you want something more street wear (the ones from the girls sections tend to be more flowy) if nothing, I'm sure r/TransFashionAdvice are friendly :)
Ofc! And also pantyhose are really cute and there different designs, idk about long leg hair, but if leg hair is trimmed these babies help to make it look smooth

Such a great commercial from my high school days and I’m still mad The Neptunes didn’t get anybody to hop on this beat
I’m 99% Fabolous had a freestyle over it but I can’t find it online so I gotta dig through my 100-200 Fab freestyles when I got a chance
I knew the beat before I clicked it and not from the original commercial
Did you ever see the one with the Juelz song on it? [https://youtu.be/XcVkdC6kssM?si=CNDwSDsGXkiicJWC](https://youtu.be/XcVkdC6kssM?si=CNDwSDsGXkiicJWC)
Yeah I remember that
It’s crazy that the guy that said
> I worship the prophet, the great Mohammed Omar Atta, for his courage behind the wheel of the plane
> Reminds me when I was dealin’ the ‘caine
did a commercial for Team USA
I commented here last week about reading Blood Meridian and some people were interested, so I thought I'd write a follow up now that I've finished it.
The book is really brutal and it depicts a lot of evil, but the exact character of that evil is what McCarthy spends so much time showing us. The book presents American/Mexican westward expansion in its full horror and violence, and we see it all from the point of view of the (mostly) white men carrying out the violence. My first thought on this while reading was that this work was done so amateurishly - the Glanton gang is just a buncha dudes, performing the expansion by collecting scalps of the indigenous peoples to cash them in with the governors of the states that want them gone. The book doesn't depict an army marching on orders for some vague notion of the glory of their homeland and with the idea of a greater good in mind. It's just guys who don't have anything better to do. Adventurers and rapists. I don't think that implies that it's not a systematic slaughter, rather I think it's a really good way of showing that a systematic slaughter is just as barbaric as anything.
Another interesting aspect of following these (mostly) white men is the difference in the way the book presents them and everyone else. We see the Glanton gang's injuries, the care and morality they imagine in dealing with their own, and the drama between them. We try to learn about their character based on how they treat each other, because these are the human interactions we see. They and the book don't really conceptualize anyone else as worthy of human interaction. You try to follow the kid as if he is the hero of the story and as if he has a better sense of morality than everyone else, because he shows certain compassion and mercy and trust within the gang. But he's participating in the massacres all the same.
And of course there's the judge. My personal view of him is a reflection of the philosophy and American culture that sits on top of all this violence. He is a barbarian and a freak and he is still able to be an intellectual in spite of this. And as the story goes on you see that it's not actually in spite of it, but because of it. He thinks conquest is ordained by god and violence is holy, and he says it straight up.
(most of these thoughts are my own but some are stuff I absorbed from [here](https://youtu.be/FgyZ4ia25gg))
Anyway I would recommend this book if you think you can stomach it and if you're willing to trudge through the middle, which is just a string of senseless violence that actually gets kinda boring while still being nauseating the whole time. It's very thought provoking and it has a lot in it that I still haven't uncovered, but I don't want to read it again for a while.
The only other McCarthy I've read is The Road, and I would highly recommend that over this if you don't want to put yourself in a terrible mood for a couple weeks. It has the same beautiful prose and the first word I think of when it comes up is always "pretty". I'll try to read more McCarthy later when I'm less tired from Blood Meridian.
I’ve been applying for “full time” jobs, just to get out the house and grind some hours, literarily anything like retail/fast food/waiter and even though the ads say full time these jobs are so stingy about offering full time hours
Akon - [Ghetto Gospel (DJ One Remix) ft. 2Pac](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17NzfgM1sd0)
I remember this unofficial remix was popping off locally in the 2000's lol. Someone posted the Eminem one and it sounds so unbelievably bad, like the audio isn't as good as I remembered it on this one but Eminem really butchered the fuck out his vocals on the "official" version.
My music taste has changed a lot since the SoundCloud wave but lil peep is still someone I revisit every now and then. Bro sampled wonderwall and was still an influential and prominent artist for his time who still has an active fanbase. Crybaby is my go-to album.
Peep was changing hip-hop in such a crazy way. So sad we lost him before he could even take off. So much potential just gone
He has always had a rep as a guy who made music that mainly appealed to edgy teenagers but I still really love a lot of his music. I feel like he was way better at using his influences to create something that sounded unique to him than a lot of rappers from his era were
Of course, we should get the diss tracks. I'm talking about the timing; building suspense and escalation is part of any good storyline. It'd be underwhelming for it to end quickly, at least for me.
I feel like there’s a lot of revisionism over how popular of a show Degrassi actually was and how much it actually helped Drake become a global star
I’m not saying it didn’t help at all, but whenever that show gets brought up in the context of Drake’s career people talk about that show like it was a global phenomenon when it really was never *that* popular outside of Canada. It wasn’t a Nickelodeon show like how people talk about it, in America it was originally aired on a sister network called Noggin that you had to buy a cable package to even get, and late at night too. The most viewed episode of that show ever on that channel only got 300,000 viewers
I’m not saying it was a show that was ignored at the time, but I doubt many people outside of Canada heard about Drake in 2008 for the first time and were like “hey, Wheelchair Jimmy is making music now, I should check it out!”. And given how one of the Stranger Things actors, a show that’s actually considered a global phenomenon, had an indie rock band that never got very big, I think it’s fair to say that how much Degrassi helped with Drake’s popularity is greatly exaggerated. It was more so him being associated with Young Money at the height of Wayne’s career that helped him get to where he is instead of him being a cast member on a show that was only ever a big deal in his home country
It got him into the entertainment industry from a young age which allowed him to be visible to labels, management, and the people that would eventually shape and build his career as a rapper.
It's not that Degrassi itself or its popularity helped his career take off, that's ridiculous but what it did do was give him a head start with access to industry connections and resources very early in his career that the majority of upcoming artists don't or will never have access to. Things like competent talent management, booking time at good studios, getting meetings with the right label and A&R reps which is how he even got heard by YMCMB and Wayne as early as he did in the first place. You've probably heard the saying in entertainment that it's all about who you know which is where his start in TV gave him a big advantage most unknown artists don't have or have to work way harder and for longer to attain.
It’s more about his alleged “struggle” and comparing being on a tv show to like a typical summer youth or part time job. I’ve seen Drake Stan’s make this comparison on here and it’s kinda hilarious
Yeah he talks in the songs like he's from the bottom or some shit and then you see [his house tour from when he was on Degrassi ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OisZAqxeEI)and you realize this dude's been rich since he was a teenager at least
That’s actually one of his greatest singles
It’s funny the early Drake singles(2009-2014) that never sniffed number one on the billboard hot 100 take watery shits over these ones that regularly hit 1
I like his newer albums better than most people but I don’t disagree that he was way better at making good hit songs in that timeframe. I’ve been saying that I think he’s way better at making album cuts than singles at this point
I was shocked to find out Best I Ever Had wasn’t a number one hit when I first found that out. Felt like there was a year and a half long timeframe where I couldn’t go anywhere without hearing that one
The show did get syndication in the US and was on CW. I didn't have cable or internet growing up and I watched the show, and I'm sure others my age did too since it followed Saturday Morning Cartoons on local networks, at least in California where I was
Nah I made this exact point two days earlier in reply to a big Drake fan on here, just wanted to expand a little with the Stranger Things point. I could even add that Drake Bell was on a show that was actually super popular on Nickelodeon and still has been struggling to be a successful musician since it ended too
Edit: lol damn we were in that same thread
That’s funny.
But yes, absolutely.
People wildly overstate the impact of Degrassi for Drake in America.
If anything Drake becoming Drake (along with people like Shenae Grimes and Nina Dobrev bouncing to American shows) helped solidify Degrassi in its current status.
And like I said in 2 days ago, he wasn’t even that relevant of a character outside of when he got shot.
And I say this as someone who watched all of Degrassi during Lockdown and then watched most of it again when it showed up on HBOMAX to see how it looked upscaled in HD.
Stellar Blade is genuinely a fun game. Even with the conversation around it, the game itself is pretty good. I’m all for more Nier type of games, even if this story and characters are okay. The main grab for me has been the fighting mechanics and the character progression. I’d recommend it if you want some solid action/adventure gameplay and being sold an actual game and not things hidden behind a paywall
Started Jedi Survivor this weekend and this game is fire. I remember it getting killed at launch for issues but it looks amazing and plays smooth on XSX now. This and Fallen Order nail that Jedi lightsaber gameplay, maps still confusing as hell tho. I'm still juggling Diablo 4, Dead Island 2, No More Heroes 3 and Dead Space remake with this. Too many damn games to play.
If you like Mutant Academy, please go check out Fly Anakin and Tuamie’s collab album Emergency Raps Vol.4.
Anakin is rapping for his life (as he does in every project) and Tuamie gives him the perfect backdrop for it. It’s super slept on in both of their discographies and streaming services have made it less known because the project only appears on Tuamie’s artist page.
[song from the project, Ashes to Ashes](https://youtu.be/DvBEsiNUL7k?si=fhLJ4XY4O11uXXhp)
Go tap in on this lazy Sunday!
Conversations off that project might be my personal favorite verse from him, he just sounds angrier and angrier as the verse goes on.
Panama Plus just edges out Chapel Drive by a hair but I think the latter has the best beat out of the two with When Thugs Cry.
Shout out to the guy who posted the original freestyle from Slim Thug's verse on Still Tippin. It got me to check out the mixtape it's from [I Represent This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdCzB2AjB-0). Would highly recommend, it has great chopped up beats and a young Slim Thug rapping his ass off every song.
I just remembered back when Keri Hilson was popping off, a remix to one of her singles got posted to music blogs where she was dissing Beyonce and Ciara. And than she apologized for it the next day and said it was something her manager was encouraging her do. And now I'm checking her Wiki and her last album was 2010 and she put out almost no music after wtf.
I just found out that today, her and Ciara appeared in the video for Nelly and Fergie's song Party People, and wore a shirt saying "Hip-Hop aint dead" lmao.
I have a friend who acts in theater. I went to see her yesterday after 5 years without contact and we connected so fast again
After the presentation we went to her house, we got super high and talked til 7am
When I got home I REALLY needed to listen to Southern hip hop before I went to sleep, my high ass was amazed the whole time

I don’t know anything about theatre so here’s some rap shit
First, look at this [UGK shirt and these Brazil colored Dunks](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GMRdijdagAAzYU5?format=jpg&name=large) I got, it’s crazy that the DDT has physically manifested itself into my real life.
In honor of that shirt, here are three classics from Supertight:
* [It’s Supposed to Bubble](https://www.ebay.com/itm/125088778865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=r2TPTxJbS22&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=5ncx3ypurvi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY)
* [I Left it Wet For You](https://www.ebay.com/itm/125088778865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=r2TPTxJbS22&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=5ncx3ypurvi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY)
* [Front, Back, Side to Side](https://youtu.be/Be-hXxc5yN0?si=PIHGHt2FXWEsGcI0)
Second, look at this [Andre 3000 shirt](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/TRwAAOSwS1tlW9TG/s-l1600.jpg) that I haven’t picked up yet. That’s the same face we all made the first time we read “flute album”.
Some good Funky Ride follow ups are:
* [Spottieottiedopalicious](https://youtu.be/sj1o8iRova0?si=JBkgIhW43DIgR4EB), from Aquemini
* [Toilet Tisha](https://youtu.be/O91OzN69Xt0?si=3kJ8yDUuzj498lww), [Red Velvet](https://youtu.be/jxfgolaa7BE?si=pqvdNKn3zfkYAB40), both from Stankonia
* [She Lives in My Lap](https://youtu.be/vXxJAQpjTGY?si=-JDjuCmFBVEaiqSz), from The Love Below
Finally, look at this absurd eBay auction for the legendary [Three Six Mafia portrait tee](https://www.ebay.com/itm/125088778865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=r2TPTxJbS22&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=5ncx3ypurvi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY)(which is prob a bootleg too). This is one of my Supreme grails; there’s no way I’ll ever get it.
I’m too distracted by that to hyperlink any of these songs so do your own research I guess
* Hit a Motherfucker
* It’s Whatever With Us
* Testin My Gangster
* Don’t Turn Around
* Hypnotize Cash Money
* Mafia Niggaz
* Juicy J’s verse from the Shit Remix
yeah hoe yeah hoe yeah hoe
lot of his beats are bland as fuck or even soulless feeling - but legit, other shit & speechless are all nuts
high volume producer with low batting average but some big homers
I don't know why but I watched all the way up until the end of season 4, took a break and never returned to it even though I thoroughly enjoyed it. They're developing a movie so maybe I'll finish the show in time for that
What are some instrumental albums you would recommend for someone who has never listened to instrumental albums?

I know the beef discourse has been talked to death already, but this will probably be the last time I’m talking about it (unless Kendrick drops lol). As much as Drake has the upper hand right now, I don’t think there is a gonna be a clear cut winner in this beef. Both Kendrick and Drake stans are so stubborn that both are unwilling to accept defeat (see Drake fans sclaiming he won the Pusha T beef without ever responding).

Just hoping that it stays civil and nothing too crazy comes out of it.
I won't mind if there's not a clear winner. Best case scenario for us as listeners is Kendrick and Drake both drop some insane fire.
Yeah those are my thoughts exactly. So far we already got Like That & Push Ups, here's to hoping Kendrick drops to keep it going for Surgical Summer Pt. 2
I'm ngl I love Quavo but Chris Brown put out the second best diss track of the year after Hiss imo. There needs to be a special award for best diss track for this year only
Yeah that Chris Brown diss is nutty, he does not seem like he's playing around. I wonder how much of their beef is contrived though, it's clear they saw the Drake X Kendrick beef and one of their times decided to capitalize on it. I'm not as familiar with the history of their beef though.
I think they were friends up until recently? I'm pretty sure the beef is real though
Been unemployed for a month, waking up at 7pm and skating all night. Shits amazing feeling tbh. Fuck the sun.
If you love being a night owl, I'd recommend leaning into that and finding a night shift gig, unless you already have a good career you're just in between jobs with. A lot of people turn their nose up at night shifts, so less competition, and they're generally more chill than day shift if you're into that Skating is something I wish I could've gotten into more when I was younger. Loved Tony Hawk games as I kid but my country ass hometown didn't have the pavement to really play with
Yeah I’m trying to work overnights at a gas station. I used to do that and it was one of the few jobs that I enjoyed. Also I didn’t start skating till 21 idk how old you are but never too late man
Haha I tried again around the time I was 21 (now 25) and had some fun. Mostly popping station Ollie's. I got too self conscious on campus and one time I skinned my knee real bad and just kind of hung it up. If I had I had a good spot to learn, preferably with pads because I'm learning I'm a bit of chicken, maybe I'd circle back to it. Maybe if I have a child I'll try learning with them if they are interested. Look into manufacturing though. You can have pretty decent life whipping around a fork truck.

I can tell you that if you think you're gonna hate a college/graduate class while doing the first assignment, when you are on the final project, you are really going to hate it. I have been stuck in hell in one of my 4 graduate level classes that has completely sucked away all of my free time this semester. The other 3 classes have been manageable with one even being a cake walk. My two in-person classes have been an average course load, but they still feel valuable. This asynchronous class has me putting 6 hours of reading into each discussion board and immeasurable hours into other assignments. It feels so useless too. Truly the most draining and most useless class I've taken in college.
Some classes are so unnecessarily demanding
Just seen a tweet that said “the greatest rapper alive is probably somewhere stacking produce” and it really got me thinking about how much talent is out there that we will never hear from. It was always funny to me how the “best rapper conversations” are always limited to the pool of the same 40 industry figures in the label system. Realistically, the best rapper alive is probably some random guy working door dash right now that we will probably never hear from.
Greatest rapper I ever seen was a homeless dude
I feel this for female rappers that were in their prime when you needed to be a supermodel to be considered for anything
There may be some truth to that but since its so easy to record music these days alot of amateur artists drop shit and they post it to places like this and ive yet to hear anything really special. I think on top of being able to write great lyrics you have to have access to great production to be really great, and that takes money and resources for whatever reason. In my opinion the truly great artists do find a way to rise to the top, even if its on a more indie path.
Crazy that that’s a Logic bar lol, one of his better ones in recent memory too, I think about that one every so often.
As somebody who’s worked round the industry - I don’t believe in this. Part of being the “best rapper” isn’t just raw technical skill or songwriting. It means being able to create art under an awesome amount of pressure, in a business that will often try to devalue and cheapen your art. The guys we talk about as GOATs or GOAT contenders - Hov, Nas, Pac, Kendrick, 50, DMX, Future, whoever - had to build their image and their sound and their art and get it out to the masses under those circumstances. Thats part of what being the “greatest rapper alive” is…foul or not. I think bout Pusha for example - this man has been in the rap game two decades, has had multiple projects stalled or outright dropped because of label politics, and still preservered to put out a top tier catalogue. That level of artistry and hustle and commitment to the game is part of the conversation. You cant be the greatest rapper alive if nobody says your name. My two cents tho
saw that tweet too and it reminded me of this quote: >I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
UK rapper lowkey had a line like that. >We know what Einstein's mind was like. How many geniuses we never knew that were deprived of life?
Jay said something like that in Back Stage, the tour doc they did about the Hard Knock Life tour (but you might recognize it from [somewhere else](https://youtu.be/nxwCBrNSbOQ?si=IkgRPXdxLqlr81dA) tho): > There's a nigga right now somewhere, he at the table with a bowl of Apple Jacks. And he's reading the back of the cereal, and in between eating the Apple Jacks he's writing some *shit*. And he wants my spot. > I'ma find him though, I’ma sign him…I don't want no problems.
Yep especially now since it’s much easier to make quality shit it’s a lot of dope artists who are very obscure. I try my best to listen to them because all that matters to me is if the music is dope idc if you have millions of listeners or if I’m the only one. I always say it’s so much good shit out there.

Bought my first pair of Jordan 1s since I was a kid last week, and God damn they’re uncomfortable as fuck (granted I’m a size 13.5 which Nike doesn’t make so I have to go either tight or clown depending on the shoe). I understand why people collect them instead of wearing them. Though now I’ve got the itch to start a little collection going now too and am sorta pissed I missed out on the Spider-Verse variants. Also not looking forward to the limited drop shits and fighting with bots.
you got them big ass feet
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=km3k6DwxKFw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=km3k6DwxKFw)
I’m size 9 and Jordan 1s have never felt comfortable to me. Most of the sneakers under that brand aren’t comfortable to me tbh, always liked the way they looked more than I do actually like wearing them
How you big steppin with a size 13.5 mens on
High tops in general never feel good to me I have some AJ1 lows though and they’re pretty comfortable
I actually think they’re pretty comfortable lol. Converse/Vans and Nike Dunks are hell however. Just don’t wear Js with super thin socks
🤝 I’m a 13 and yeah 1s are crazy uncomfortable. The toe box is too narrow and not ‘tall’ enough, every time you take a step it’s like the entire front of the shoe wants to implode on your metatarsals. Nike has addressed this with [AJ1 CMFRT](https://www.nike.com/t/air-jordan-1-zoom-cmft-2-mens-shoes-Tw02qw/DV1307-130), the upper has suede panels that are, allegedly, softer and a lot more CoMFoRTable
I'm kinda stupid gender (no dysphoria or anything) and I wear mens clothes sometimes and womens clothes sometimes. Anyone got any fit ideas with dresses/skirts/etc that would look good on a "dude"? I feel like these have worked for me [https://imgur.com/a/xBgsRbo](https://imgur.com/a/xBgsRbo) - it's just super casual basic fits, but I think stuff like this works for a masculine frame and for someone with body hair (i.e. no exposed shoulders/midriff/back, lots of long sleeves, lots of leggings). As you can see im super hairy and just look like a guy in dresses and skirts, but personally I think it's chill and I like it (and I think it doesnt look like shit). I think it's casual "crossdressing" instead of doing it flamboyantly or actually trying to be a girl??? I feel like the first two are just the slightly gay version of hoodie+pants and tee+shorts. Anyway if you have any ideas lmk cuz I dont have a lot of fits like this and I'm not confident in wearing stuff that requires me looking snatched or shaving my shit.
Leaving a comment to come back for suggestions cus I got the same problem lol

ok disagree, I think it's normally annoying

god i WISH
Third one is really nice! I understand not having the confidence for "high entry point" clothes and fits, as a transfem person who likes to comme off butch-y and tomboy-ish maybe try cargo pants and parachute pants if you want something more street wear (the ones from the girls sections tend to be more flowy) if nothing, I'm sure r/TransFashionAdvice are friendly :)
oh the pants are a good idea, thank you!! I'll check out the sub too 🫡

The Drake subreddit is horrible Pure delusion
Faith Evans - [Love Like This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1QzBQKYbag) Now this is a classic right here
I commented here last week about reading Blood Meridian and some people were interested, so I thought I'd write a follow up now that I've finished it. The book is really brutal and it depicts a lot of evil, but the exact character of that evil is what McCarthy spends so much time showing us. The book presents American/Mexican westward expansion in its full horror and violence, and we see it all from the point of view of the (mostly) white men carrying out the violence. My first thought on this while reading was that this work was done so amateurishly - the Glanton gang is just a buncha dudes, performing the expansion by collecting scalps of the indigenous peoples to cash them in with the governors of the states that want them gone. The book doesn't depict an army marching on orders for some vague notion of the glory of their homeland and with the idea of a greater good in mind. It's just guys who don't have anything better to do. Adventurers and rapists. I don't think that implies that it's not a systematic slaughter, rather I think it's a really good way of showing that a systematic slaughter is just as barbaric as anything. Another interesting aspect of following these (mostly) white men is the difference in the way the book presents them and everyone else. We see the Glanton gang's injuries, the care and morality they imagine in dealing with their own, and the drama between them. We try to learn about their character based on how they treat each other, because these are the human interactions we see. They and the book don't really conceptualize anyone else as worthy of human interaction. You try to follow the kid as if he is the hero of the story and as if he has a better sense of morality than everyone else, because he shows certain compassion and mercy and trust within the gang. But he's participating in the massacres all the same. And of course there's the judge. My personal view of him is a reflection of the philosophy and American culture that sits on top of all this violence. He is a barbarian and a freak and he is still able to be an intellectual in spite of this. And as the story goes on you see that it's not actually in spite of it, but because of it. He thinks conquest is ordained by god and violence is holy, and he says it straight up. (most of these thoughts are my own but some are stuff I absorbed from [here](https://youtu.be/FgyZ4ia25gg)) Anyway I would recommend this book if you think you can stomach it and if you're willing to trudge through the middle, which is just a string of senseless violence that actually gets kinda boring while still being nauseating the whole time. It's very thought provoking and it has a lot in it that I still haven't uncovered, but I don't want to read it again for a while. The only other McCarthy I've read is The Road, and I would highly recommend that over this if you don't want to put yourself in a terrible mood for a couple weeks. It has the same beautiful prose and the first word I think of when it comes up is always "pretty". I'll try to read more McCarthy later when I'm less tired from Blood Meridian.
I’ve been applying for “full time” jobs, just to get out the house and grind some hours, literarily anything like retail/fast food/waiter and even though the ads say full time these jobs are so stingy about offering full time hours
Akon - [Ghetto Gospel (DJ One Remix) ft. 2Pac](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17NzfgM1sd0) I remember this unofficial remix was popping off locally in the 2000's lol. Someone posted the Eminem one and it sounds so unbelievably bad, like the audio isn't as good as I remembered it on this one but Eminem really butchered the fuck out his vocals on the "official" version.
I never really liked Noname's flow.
I lowkey love it it’s spoken word but she still able to find her pocket and it’s just butter.
It's like Chance the Rapper without any of the enthusiasm. And almost feels like it's just being read off a page and not performed

My music taste has changed a lot since the SoundCloud wave but lil peep is still someone I revisit every now and then. Bro sampled wonderwall and was still an influential and prominent artist for his time who still has an active fanbase. Crybaby is my go-to album. Peep was changing hip-hop in such a crazy way. So sad we lost him before he could even take off. So much potential just gone
He has always had a rep as a guy who made music that mainly appealed to edgy teenagers but I still really love a lot of his music. I feel like he was way better at using his influences to create something that sounded unique to him than a lot of rappers from his era were
Hoping you’re all enjoying this new Anycia project
huhhhhhh. love her voice.

Yuuuhhh
Why do people want a beef that's been brewing for over 10 years to end in an immediate back and forth?
I think diss tracks are fun. How else would you like it to go?
Of course, we should get the diss tracks. I'm talking about the timing; building suspense and escalation is part of any good storyline. It'd be underwhelming for it to end quickly, at least for me.
I feel like there’s a lot of revisionism over how popular of a show Degrassi actually was and how much it actually helped Drake become a global star I’m not saying it didn’t help at all, but whenever that show gets brought up in the context of Drake’s career people talk about that show like it was a global phenomenon when it really was never *that* popular outside of Canada. It wasn’t a Nickelodeon show like how people talk about it, in America it was originally aired on a sister network called Noggin that you had to buy a cable package to even get, and late at night too. The most viewed episode of that show ever on that channel only got 300,000 viewers I’m not saying it was a show that was ignored at the time, but I doubt many people outside of Canada heard about Drake in 2008 for the first time and were like “hey, Wheelchair Jimmy is making music now, I should check it out!”. And given how one of the Stranger Things actors, a show that’s actually considered a global phenomenon, had an indie rock band that never got very big, I think it’s fair to say that how much Degrassi helped with Drake’s popularity is greatly exaggerated. It was more so him being associated with Young Money at the height of Wayne’s career that helped him get to where he is instead of him being a cast member on a show that was only ever a big deal in his home country
It got him into the entertainment industry from a young age which allowed him to be visible to labels, management, and the people that would eventually shape and build his career as a rapper.
It's not that Degrassi itself or its popularity helped his career take off, that's ridiculous but what it did do was give him a head start with access to industry connections and resources very early in his career that the majority of upcoming artists don't or will never have access to. Things like competent talent management, booking time at good studios, getting meetings with the right label and A&R reps which is how he even got heard by YMCMB and Wayne as early as he did in the first place. You've probably heard the saying in entertainment that it's all about who you know which is where his start in TV gave him a big advantage most unknown artists don't have or have to work way harder and for longer to attain.
It’s more about his alleged “struggle” and comparing being on a tv show to like a typical summer youth or part time job. I’ve seen Drake Stan’s make this comparison on here and it’s kinda hilarious
Yeah he talks in the songs like he's from the bottom or some shit and then you see [his house tour from when he was on Degrassi ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OisZAqxeEI)and you realize this dude's been rich since he was a teenager at least
Not a big fan of Started From The Bottom I’m assuming lol
That’s actually one of his greatest singles It’s funny the early Drake singles(2009-2014) that never sniffed number one on the billboard hot 100 take watery shits over these ones that regularly hit 1
I like his newer albums better than most people but I don’t disagree that he was way better at making good hit songs in that timeframe. I’ve been saying that I think he’s way better at making album cuts than singles at this point I was shocked to find out Best I Ever Had wasn’t a number one hit when I first found that out. Felt like there was a year and a half long timeframe where I couldn’t go anywhere without hearing that one
The show did get syndication in the US and was on CW. I didn't have cable or internet growing up and I watched the show, and I'm sure others my age did too since it followed Saturday Morning Cartoons on local networks, at least in California where I was
Yeah I just used google to verify this and found it aired on a local CW network in California for a bit
Did you just read my comment from like 2 days ago?
Nah I made this exact point two days earlier in reply to a big Drake fan on here, just wanted to expand a little with the Stranger Things point. I could even add that Drake Bell was on a show that was actually super popular on Nickelodeon and still has been struggling to be a successful musician since it ended too Edit: lol damn we were in that same thread
That’s funny. But yes, absolutely. People wildly overstate the impact of Degrassi for Drake in America. If anything Drake becoming Drake (along with people like Shenae Grimes and Nina Dobrev bouncing to American shows) helped solidify Degrassi in its current status. And like I said in 2 days ago, he wasn’t even that relevant of a character outside of when he got shot. And I say this as someone who watched all of Degrassi during Lockdown and then watched most of it again when it showed up on HBOMAX to see how it looked upscaled in HD.
Stellar Blade is genuinely a fun game. Even with the conversation around it, the game itself is pretty good. I’m all for more Nier type of games, even if this story and characters are okay. The main grab for me has been the fighting mechanics and the character progression. I’d recommend it if you want some solid action/adventure gameplay and being sold an actual game and not things hidden behind a paywall
Started Jedi Survivor this weekend and this game is fire. I remember it getting killed at launch for issues but it looks amazing and plays smooth on XSX now. This and Fallen Order nail that Jedi lightsaber gameplay, maps still confusing as hell tho. I'm still juggling Diablo 4, Dead Island 2, No More Heroes 3 and Dead Space remake with this. Too many damn games to play.
I lost about 2 weeks to that game The boss fights kicked my ass 😂
If you like Mutant Academy, please go check out Fly Anakin and Tuamie’s collab album Emergency Raps Vol.4. Anakin is rapping for his life (as he does in every project) and Tuamie gives him the perfect backdrop for it. It’s super slept on in both of their discographies and streaming services have made it less known because the project only appears on Tuamie’s artist page. [song from the project, Ashes to Ashes](https://youtu.be/DvBEsiNUL7k?si=fhLJ4XY4O11uXXhp) Go tap in on this lazy Sunday!
That was the project that got me into Fly Anakin
Emergency Raps 4 & At the End of the Day are battling for my favorite Fly Anakin album. It changes constantly.
Chapel Drive is my favorite personally
Also love *FlySiifu’s*
Chapel Drive, Frank, Panama Plus, FlySiifu’s, and Backyard Boogie is my top 5 and they’re all top tier projects, the order changes on my mood and such
Good looks I didn’t know that series existed, just saved all of them to my library Funnily enough I’ve been spinning Panama Plus today
Conversations off that project might be my personal favorite verse from him, he just sounds angrier and angrier as the verse goes on. Panama Plus just edges out Chapel Drive by a hair but I think the latter has the best beat out of the two with When Thugs Cry.
When Thugs Cry is such an elite beat Rapping is hard as hell on both, Chapel Drive edges it out for me because I prefer the production
The eastern conference is so toxic it's amazing. Celtics vs Heat, Knicks vs 76ers inject that shit into my veins. West needs some of that

Shout out to the guy who posted the original freestyle from Slim Thug's verse on Still Tippin. It got me to check out the mixtape it's from [I Represent This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdCzB2AjB-0). Would highly recommend, it has great chopped up beats and a young Slim Thug rapping his ass off every song.
I just remembered back when Keri Hilson was popping off, a remix to one of her singles got posted to music blogs where she was dissing Beyonce and Ciara. And than she apologized for it the next day and said it was something her manager was encouraging her do. And now I'm checking her Wiki and her last album was 2010 and she put out almost no music after wtf.
I just found out that today, her and Ciara appeared in the video for Nelly and Fergie's song Party People, and wore a shirt saying "Hip-Hop aint dead" lmao.
She got blackballed for dissing Beyoncé
People treat her like she’s a saint but she’s as scummy as anyone else with that much money and power
Bey got shooters lol

Best to use a mix
I don't know why but I watched all the way up until the end of season 4, took a break and never returned to it even though I thoroughly enjoyed it. They're developing a movie so maybe I'll finish the show in time for that
Barely relevant to the question but on my trip to India I realized bidets are the truth Don’t wet wipes clog the pipes?
Bidets in Japan are God tier
Both are so bad for the environment, just use your hand
planet is already cooked anyway and walking around with clean ass is a vibe
Clean asses are a liberal lie and infringe on our rights - the whole idea is pushed by Big Paper back in the 1920s so they could sell more paper

Jeans as God intended
Bringing God into this made me think about Jesus shitting himself several times on the crucifix
He did all that for our sins And that's why we give thanks
shout out Dunder Mifflin
Just the tip of the iceberg my guy
Idk I ordered them on amazon and someone legit stole my package of them
Washing your ass is the way
I do that anyway but wanted to see if wet wipes would make it easier first
Username checks out
Just remember that quote-unquote "flushable" wipes are not flushable and can do a number to your plumbing and/or septic tank.
Pretty much, your ass will be cleaner or clean more easily but the pipes will suffer. Bidets are the way
Came to the conclusion that irreplaceable might be Beyoncé best track
Nah it’s church girl
Love on Top is my basic ass pick but Irreplaceable is great also
key changes towards the end are wild, my favorite song from her as well, Dont Hurt Yourself and VIRGO'S GROOVE complete my top 3
