Sep 19, 2022 Hasn't it been literally one of the best years for rap in a while this year? Lmao maybe I'm biased cause people I liked dropped this year.
Sep 19, 2022 No no jankland read on Twitter that em fans are hated because they do this so obviously thats the truth!
Sep 19, 2022 I mean it literally is? The whole "mumble (c)rap" meme was straight birthed from the kamikaze era
Sep 19, 2022 People were calling it mumble crap long before kamikaze....cringe to call it that, I'd rather just call it trash
Sep 19, 2022 JID (AOTY), Denzel Curry, Kendrick, Pusha, Lupe, Joey etc. Obviously not all of them are new rappers at all and I haven't gone through all the projects yet myself but I thought it was pretty well known some quality work dropped this year.
Sep 19, 2022 Yeah but the album was big enough to get a bunch of white kids like myself acting like they know what real rap is supposed to be. Not even an insult on kamikaze btw, holds a soft spot for me in Em's discog cause it was weirdly the catalyst that got me listening to more rap and albums in general instead of just bumping my rock playlist till the end of time lol
Sep 19, 2022 I like all those, def wouldnt call any of them new. New lloyd banks was my album of the year. I think it's pretty subjective what "real rap" is. I just think it's silly how the narrative that em fans are bad is stupid. After being on Reddit awhile and going to diff subs every sub is full of morons. There's just more em fans than most artists so they're gonna be the loudest and most seen. Which allows more morons
Sep 19, 2022 Yeah, I was just saying what projects came to mind cause newer rappers to people feels like people that have already been making albums for like 8 years or TikTok f---ers who barely have a career yet lol. Yeah obviously Em fans aren't the only bad fandom when K-Pop, Kanye, Nicki, Drake etc all exist but there definitely is some very developmentally special s--- in the brains of Em fans sometimes with what some of us be saying
Sep 19, 2022 You hear Brent Faiyaz’s new album? Some of the best R&B I’ve heard in a while. Steve Lacy’s new album was good too. And of course The Weeknd’s first 3 mixtapes were great alternative R&B. Bryson Tiller too, even his new song was dope. I still need to listen to Giveon’s new album
Sep 19, 2022 I don't care about this mumble crumble fumble vs real hip hop with pop d-ck s--- it f--- I was just listening to my Will Smith cd
Sep 19, 2022 Yee I listened to it a couple times but nothing really stood out that wasn't already a single. I gotta relisten tho for sure. Yee Trilogy is one of my favourite albums of all time, every time I go back to it I still get the same feeling of "wow this is crazy" Il check out Steve Lacy, never heard the name lol. The one guy I can't stand is Daniel Ceaser tho, something about it i just hate
Sep 19, 2022 Only if you’re talking rap from the 80s. All this new age crap from the 90s onward sucks. Once I heard Nas mumbling on Illmatic I knew rap was dead and gone.
Sep 19, 2022 I drink more liquor to f--- you up quicker than you'd want to f--- me up for saying (jus havin fun this ain't a new project ain't an ad)
Sep 19, 2022 Lmao. Only arguably bad songs were Kamikaze (bc I hated the annoying beat) and Nice Guy and I don't really have problem with that one anyway. I wouldn't listen to it as a solo track but it's 2 mins and just plays thru while listenin' to the whole album without any probs for me. If one track ruins an album, then I barely would have had 10 albums that I'd call great. You might not like any songs there but I never seen someone thinking Kanye's Pablo album sucks, or half of the album sucks spending hours on his forum sxn to talk about him. This is the problem with Em. So many people saying this sucks that sucks but yet even more interested in Em's work than those who actually like his s---. It's just the opposite with every other artist. This is not directed at you per se, this is just what it is. I see more haters and critics than lovers and fans. Maybe it's bc others don't have as much fans and activity in their sxns etc.
