All of the goodness
Here’s Chicago’s Tink with a song of the year candidate. This belongs on a playlist right before “Back like That” by Ghostface.
It’s amazing how much life there is in unreleased Dilla beats. It helps that the caretakers of his legacy know how to celebrate his work.
Killer Mike tells a blistering and personal story of black rage over an equally lyrical Alchemist beat.
Another hit from Yo Gotti’s camp: Snootie Wild raps like he’s giving a sermon on “Stackin It Flippin It”. Seriously, he has a cadence that makes you want to hit the airport.
A connoisseur of bangers (no Miley Cyrus) knows to look for texture and “Alright” sounds and feels like nothing else. A cacophony of clattering and whistling synths is more progressive and weird than anything I’d expect from Zed Zilla — though he and Cap 1 both kill it on here.
Struggling to make ends meet on the humble has rarely sounded so good. Bonus Blu single below. Limited 7" Release by Spaceboy Boogie X feat. Blu & Bootie Brown
Jonwayne and Oliver the 2nd both come correct on here, but for me the main draw is the romantic spaghetti western guitar beat. I need Shazam to tell me where that shit’s from right now.
Pennsylvania’s Swarvy is quickly becoming one of my favorite new beat dudes. “Jawbraker” sounds broken in the best possible way and “Tapeghost” is a blunted medley with so many colors that it feels much longer than its six minute runtime.
Throwback rap videos are the best rap videos. See also People Under the Stairs’ “Trippin at the Disco” and of course Snoop’s immaculate “Sensual Seduction”. Also, Dilla beat.
