From the ancient east coast historical records..

Sound of ye underground.

"Didi always hit you with a nickel bag". My American girlfriend Didi always brought a nickel bag when she was staying in Amsterdam. First time I heard Digable Planets, she said "So you like hiphop uh?" inserting a cassette of the first Digable album on my tape recorder and then we got high. Good times.

Madvillainy album, 2 decades ago and genuine masterpiece, MF Doom and Madlib.

Apart from the raps, the beats are legendary.

Temples of boom, third album, best Cypress Hill record to an ancient guy like me.

Having a LA artist in a New Orleans Superbowl does kinda feel weird I guess

I found out about her after her feature on Denzel. I'd heard some of her songs before randomly but never got curious enough to look her up until her verse on HOT ONE.

Her music sounds a bit samey IMO, but her talent is undeniable; she's got flow, lyrics, and charisma. Also... She's newgen, no denying that.

I strongly dislike the majority of mainstream fem rappers out right now (Cardi B, Megan, Sexxy Red) but I think Tia has some gems.

Thoughts?

Give No Fuck

“Murdergram Deux” marks LL Cool J and Eminem’s highly anticipated first collaboration and the fourth single from LL Cool J’s long-awaited upcoming album, The FORCE. With LL’s nostalgic bravado and Eminem’s signature speedy flow and subtle wordplay, the song sees the pair boasting about their raw “unapologetic” style and credibility in the rap game. The track – a sequel to LL’s original “Murdergram” – is produced by Eminem and Q-Tip, LL’s fellow Queens rap legend and former member of A Tribe Called Quest, who has produced the entire album.

Two months before the official release of the song, an unfinished version of “Murdergram Deux” was leaked to the public, visibly annoying LL. The song was officially released on August 30th as the album’s fourth single, which is set to drop on September 9, 2024.^[[1] https://genius.com/Ll-cool-j-murdergram-deux-lyrics]

Underground Greek feminist hip-hop

Back in the day this was one of the dopest beats and the scratched 'trax' sample was heard later on on anything. Back then I was into Mantronix too which had similar style of grooves to me using drum machines instead of vinyl drumloops but I think this is way more hardcore and underground.
