December 2018 -*PlayLi$t of the Month*

We made it.

I’m going to be brutally honest with you folks: work is kicking my ass, I just moved to New Jersey, my wife and I are having a baby in one month, and everything feels completely overwhelming right now. 

Nevertheless...the show must go on, so I need to drop this list and move on to my year end (w)rap-up! Fortunately, stress is what helped pull me towards rap music in the first place, back when I was an anxiety-ridden kid in need of a genre of music built upon the notion of, “oh so you think you’re better than me, eh world? Well I’ll show you!”. Now as an anxiety-ridden adult my love for music has only grown, and with all of the life changes from over the past year, it’s only fitting that when it comes to rap music, 2018 has been one for the record books. Consider this a heartfelt thank you to all of the talented rappers, writers, producers, and influencers that inspire me on a daily basis, and fuel my love for hip-hop music and culture.

So for the last time in 2018, please enjoy THE Rap Pundit’s PlayLi$t of the Month... 🙏

1. “Scarface vs. Sosa, Pt. 2” - Benny

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZYG1gMPVgU

(Hard. As. Nails. Benny The Butcher’s Tana Talk 3 was my favorite project of the month, and I just think this one feels like a quintessential Griselda track.)

2. “What’s Free” - Meek Mill feat. Rick Ross & Jay-Z

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpNWvxE9nXY

(Did I need to hear anyone that’s not Biggie Smalls rhyme over the “What’s Beef?” instrumental? No. Did I need this verse of the year caliber Hov verse? HELL YES.)

3. “Broken Bottles” - Benny

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oQ1affk-ok

(That Alchemist instrumental is craaaaaazy - and Benny sounds more than cozy talking that street talk right over it. If you haven’t checked out Tana Talk 3 yet, you need to stop what you’re doing and fix that immediately.)

4. “The Mint” - Earl Sweatshirt feat. Navy Blue

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4caTCHR4xo

(One of the many short but sweet gems off of that new Earl album. Some Rap Songs will take some time to digest, but it’s already feeling like a special underground hip-hop album in the vein of MF Doom and Madlib’s finest work.)

5. “Hot Box” - J.I.D feat. Method Man & Joey Bada$$

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTmwrCkGePg

(Yes, we all got excited when we saw the track list, but did any of us really expect this joint to be quite so dope? I am pleasantly surprised at how well this line-up delivered. Meth sounds prime, Joey does his thing, and face it, J.I.D is simply one of the finest MCs out there right now. “Hot Box” is a simple record, but it captures that classic weed anthem vibe in a way that we haven’t heard in too long. DiCaprio 2 will be popping up on a lot of year-end ‘Best Of’ lists, so be sure to keep that whole project in your rotation.)

6. “Mac 10 Wounds” - The Alchemist feat. Conway

https://alclaboratories.bandcamp.com/track/mac-10-wounds-feat-conway

(When Conway The Machine has his game face on, there might not be another MC that sounds harder. This is one of the grimiest records of 2018 - and that sample from a classic scene in Taxi Driver at the start of the track totally speaks to me!)

7. “Shattered Dreams” - Earl Sweatshirt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twT1zz5GMfU

(The opening song off of Earl’s Some Rap Songs. It’s a soulful, Wu-esque loop for the lo-fi champion to spazz over, and he does just that. Earl really did his thing with this album, he sounds fantastic throughout.)

8. “Long Liveth” - Black Thought & Salaam Remi

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3yiTR0ktv8

(How stacked has 2018 been? Heads are sleeping on a Black Thought album. Tariq slaughters every beat on Streams Of Thought, Vol. 2, and Salaam Remi’s production aesthetic lends a live recording feel which suits the Roots frontman oh so well.)

9. “Roman Candles” - The Alchemist feat. Roc Marciano & Black Thought 

https://alclaboratories.bandcamp.com/track/roman-candles-feat-roc-marciano-black-thought

(More Black Thought you say? Over an Alchemist beat you say?? And featuring Roc Marciano, you say??? No need to say anything more about the inclusion of this firecracker on December’s playlist.)

10. “Echo Long” - Benny feat. Westside Gunn & Meyhem Lauren

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kCgwdl4CB4

(Another one of the hardest joints off of TT3, courtesy of a slick Daringer beat, Westside Gunn’s presence, and a little bit of Meyhem as the cherry on top.)

*Bonus - Honorable Mention [extended edition]*

“Red Room” - Offset

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OiDtt5lsYk

“Off Da Zoinkys” - J.I.D

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcN6sboLrc8

“Blood” - Pivot Gang

https://consequenceofsound.net/2018/11/pivot-gang-blood-stream/

“Joe Pesci 38” - Benny

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQ-Rgfydnpc

“'97 Hov” - Benny

https://pitchfork.com/levels/benny-the-butcher-97-hov-new-song-listen/

“Who Are You” - Benny feat. Royce Da 5′9″

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSqbmawDktw

“The Last Supper” - B.A. The Great

https://soundcloud.com/bathegreat/the-last-supper

“Direct” - Dark Lo & V Don feat. Roc Marciano

https://soundcloud.com/vdonsoundzserious/dark-lo-x-v-don-direct-ft-roc

“The Man Who Has Everything” - Chance The Rapper

https://soundcloud.com/chancetherapper/the-man-who-has-everything-1

“Oodles O’ Noodles” - Meek Mill

https://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/oodles-o-noodles-babies/

“Dirty Porridge” - Vic Spencer

https://vicspencer.bandcamp.com/track/dirty-porridge

“Azucar” - Earl Sweatshirt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DB3nEesYdcE

“Cold Summers” - Earl Sweatshirt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-eRnchhJc4

“Fuck Ya Lifestyle” - Termanology & Statik Selektah as 1982 feat. Nems & Beanz

https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/statik-selektah-and-termanology-take-it-back-like-its-still-1982-new-mixtape.118666.html

“Saviers Road” - Anderson .Paak

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnlmQhViy2Q

Happy Holidays, folks...and don’t let anyone ever tell you that you need to put music you love aside just because it’s not new anymore. Keep these songs bumpin’ through 2019 and beyond, because the artists earned it!

10) Swimming - Mac Miller

This one was tough. Malcolm James McCormick’s fifth studio album was barely out three months before he left us. It’s hard to evaluate Swimming in isolation of Miller’s untimely death at age 26. Especially since, in my mind, the album represents something of a turning point for the former frat rapper. Recorded in the wake of Miller’s high profile breakup with Ariana Grande and in the midst of public struggles with addiction, Swimming is full of heartache and soul bearing self-reflection. Sonically, Mac’s airy raps and crooning vocals float over jazzy beats and orchestral accompaniments, with help from Thundercat and Dev Hynes. There’s room for fun as well amid the melancholy - the more upbeat Ladders and What’s the Use? are sure enough to keep a dance floor moving. The worst thing about Swimming is really how good it is, and how it felt like Mac Miller was on the cusp on something great we’ll now never see. 

Highlights: Self Care, What’s The Use?, 2009, Ladders

9) QUARTERTHING - Joey Purp

Chance the Rapper’s Savemoney compatriot Joey Purp is like a breath of fresh air. QUARTERTHING’s 14 tracks, most clocking in at under 3 minutes, come fast and furious like Purp’s (mostly) un-autotuned flow. Joey’s full throated, almost Meek-Mill-esque, delivery gives the album a mixtape-like authenticity - notwithstanding the varied and expert production from the likes of RZA, Knox Fortune and frequent Chance collaborator Nate Fox. The opening 24k Gold/Sanctified, and Hallelujah just two tracks later, feel downright celebratory pairing Purp’s flow behind a blaring big band sound. Others, like Look At My Wrist and Paint Thinner, are Chicago Drill and house inspired, feeling like they’d be right at home in a sweaty club basement. Lyrically, Purp is a classic hip-hop storyteller and street documentarian, drawing from experiences in a former life selling drugs and the violence of his home city. This impressive studio album debut is more than enough to solidify Joey Purp’s place among an exciting new generation of Chicago rappers.

Highlights: 24k Gold/Sanctified (ft. Ravyn Lenae & Jack Red), Godbody (ft. RZA) [Pt. 2], Hallelujah, Look At My Wrist (ft. Cdot Honcho), Karl Malone

8) Golden Hour - Kacey Musgraves

Kacey Musgraves is clearly in the pantheon of artists that can’t release an album without it making this list (I rated Pageant Material #8 in 2015 and Same Trailer, Different Park #9 in 2013... both criminally underrated in retrospect). Musgraves continued to be a revelation with her third album. There was a great Ezra Koenig quote last year, where he talked about seeing Musgraves’ concert and being inspired by the clarity of her music: “from the first verse, you knew who was singing, who they were singing to, what kind of situation they were in”. On Golden Hour, she maintains that clarity, stretching a little more outside the traditional country sound into pop and disco-inspired melodies. I do miss the dry humour and rebellious spirit of the previous two Musgraves outings, I’ll admit. You won’t find any overt weed references here, but Kacey finds plenty of ways to remind us how few fucks she gives about the Nashville country establishment. Golden Hour also shows off some of Musgraves’ strongest songwriting to date - the sprawling Space Cowboy stands out as one of the best singles of the year in any genre. I’m probably in the minority in thinking Golden Hour is not my favourite Kacey Musgraves album, but it’s still one of my favourite albums of 2018.

Highlights: Slow Burn, Space Cowboy, High Horse, Love is a Wild Thing

7) Lush - Snail Mail

It’s about to become clear that there is a “women in indie rock” movement happening on this year’s list. The debut album from 18 year old singer-songwriter Lindsey Jordan is one of the most aptly titled records of 2018. Lush’s indie rock soundscapes are just that. Loud, full and richly textured. Jordan’s crystal clear vocals soar and float above her ringing guitar chords and riffs. The songwriting is perhaps what you’d expect from an 18 year old, full of heartbreak, confusion and teen angst. She does it well though. As the first chorus builds on Heat Wave, Jordan’s voice builds: “And I hope whoever it is Holds their breath around you, 'Cause I know I did”. The album’s standout track for me is Full Control which crescendos to a refrain of: “I'm in full control, I'm not lost, Even when it's love, Even when it's not.” At the same time, Lush exudes a maturity and a nostalgia that hearkens back to Snail Mail’s spiritual predecessors like Cat Power or Fiona Apple. Snail Mail was one of many reasons that 2018 gave me hope that there’s a future for indie rock and “guitar music” generally. I’m very much looking forward to seeing what’s next.

Highlights: Pristine, Full Control, Deep Sea, Heat Wave

6) boygenius EP - boygenius

The only thing that ever held me back from including boygenius on this list was my long held view that “an EP is not an album”. Well, since Kanye decided that 7 songs can be an “album” why not 6? Any album that has 6 songs as good as the 6 on boygenius EP would make this list! boygenius is the indie “supergroup” made up of Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and the holder of last year’s #3 album on this list, Julien Baker - all accomplished solo acts in their own right. Predictably, the whole is something greater than the sum of its parts. boygenius EP’s six songs are a tour de force amalgam of indie, country and folk (owing to the band’s cross-genre Nashville and Viriginia roots) full of raw emotion and grit. Dacus, Bridgers and Baker seem made to perform, and sing, together. The harmonies on this record make boygenius sound like an indie rock iteration of Destiny’s Child or an edgier, less twangy version of the Dixie Chicks. The songs do not hold back, with high highs and low lows. On Me & My Dog, the soaring chorus evokes an escapist dream: “I wish I was on a spaceship, Just me and my dog and an impossible view”. The emotional highpoint of the record might be Baker and Bridgers’ chorus on Salt in the Wound apexing with: “I’m gnashing my teeth, Like a child of Cain, If this is a prison I’m willing to buy my own chain”. I can’t stop watching live videos of these three - they seem so at home onstage together. As excited as I’d be to see boygenius become more than a side project, I’m equally excited to see what’s next for Bridgers, Dacus and Baker on their own.

Highlights: Me & My Dog, Stay Down, Salt In the Wound, Ketchum ID

5) DAYTONA - Pusha T

YUGH! Amid Kanye’s unhinged tweets, messy, disorganized projects, and Oval Office visits, DAYTONA, the 7 track album he entirely produced for G.O.O.D. Music veteran Pusha T, was one thing that gave us hope that Kanye hadn’t completely lost his touch (or his mind) in 2018. DAYTONA showcases both producer Kanye and King Push at the absolute peak of their talents. It’s amazing, in this era of Xanax-fuelled mumblerap, to think how long we’ve been listening to Kanye and Push do their thing. Lord Willin’ introduced the world to Pusha T in 2002 (alongside his brother Malice, as he then was, as the iconic rap duo Clipse). The College Dropout came out two years later. I still remember buying the CDs and wearing out my discman with both of them. It’s easy to forget that Kanye and Terrence “King Push” Thornton are both 41 years old! There’s something refreshing about two guys in their forties still being able to make a banging rap record about selling drugs and buying expensive shit. Push said DAYTONA was made “for my family...high taste level, luxury, drug raps fans.”  Those fans are well served by DAYTONA. After the beat comes in on album opener If You Know You Know, Push sounds like he’s speaking directly to his day one fans, raising a styrofoam cup to: “This thing of ours, oh, this thing of ours”. The album exudes the bravado of an MC on top of his game confident in the knowledge that he’s spitting bars on a classic. And we can’t forget the incendiary Infrared, the song that touched off a vicious beef between Pusha T and rap’s biggest star, Drake, ending after Push revealed in a diss track that Drake was hiding his son from the world. Almost 20 years on, Pusha T is still ready to go war, still “clickin’ like Golden State” and still wearing the crown as King Push. Long may he reign.

Highlights: If You Know You Know, The Games We Play, Hard Piano (ft. Rick Ross), Infrared

4) Honey - Robyn

I found myself slightly disappointed in Honey at first, largely because my expectations for Robyn’s first album in eight years were based on the high energy electro-pop brilliance of 2010′s Body Talk. What I should have realized is that, if Robyn were going to make another Body Talk, she wouldn’t have kept us waiting this long. Honey is not Body Talk - you won’t find another Call Your Girlfriend or Dancing on My Own among its nine silky smooth tracks. But it is no less brilliant. If I can forget that Beach2k20 exists for a second, it feels pretty darn close to a perfect album. Honey betrays a lighter touch for Robyn, perhaps more in tune with the sound of the moment. A little more euro house and disco tinged, Honey furthers the Swedish songstress’s long evolution away from the pop idol of her late 90′s past. Honey still embodies Robyn’s signature juxtaposition of electronic dance rhythms alongside themes of sadness, loneliness and heartbreak. And songs like Honey and Missing U can still light up any dancefloor. The highlight for me is the slow-building Send to Robin Immediately, which just swells over its Lil Louis sample as Robyn urges the listener into action: “If you got something to say, say it right away. If you got something to do, do what's right for you. If you got somebody to love, give that love today. Know you got nothing to lose, there's no time to waste”. In between albums, and while writing Honey, Robyn lived through the death of a longtime collaborator and a breakup and reunion with a romantic partner. The emotional toll of these experiences seem to shine through. Robyn told the BBC’s Annie Mac earlier this year: “When I wrote this album I think I was quite tired of myself writing sad love songs, but I did anyway and looking back on that now, I think it's OK for things to be sad. Combining it with something that's bright and strong and powerful is a way of finding your way out of the sadness.” 

Highlights: Missing U, Human Being (ft. Zhala), Send to Robin Immediately, Honey

3) Clean - Soccer Mommy

Clean, the impressive debut album from 20 year old Nashville singer-songwriter Sophie Allison, was the first album I heard this year that I 100% knew would be on this list. By the time Your Dog hits at the third track, I was completely enthralled. That song is so goddamn rock and roll with Allison sparing no mercy for the subject shitty boyfriend of the opening verse: “I don't wanna be your fucking dog, That you drag around, A collar on my neck tied to a pole, Leave me in the freezing cold”. Elsewhere, on Still Clean, Allison plays with gruesome animalistic imagery singing of an ex-lover picking her “out your bloody teeth”. There is a warmer side to Clean as well. Scorpio Rising, with it’s “bubbly and sweet like Coca-Cola” softness and lyrics about meeting up after dark and missed calls from your mother definitely remind you that Allison is a self-professed devotee of Taylor Swift’s early work (which should give you another idea of why I love this album). Speaking of T-Swift, the rollicking Last Girl almost mirrors You Belong With Me in describing the crushing insecurity of comparing oneself to a new partner’s ex, somehow pulling off lyrics like “I want to be like your last girl, She's the sun in your cold world and, I am just a dying flower, I don't hold the summer in my eyes” as if that were a totally normal thing to say. Beneath the upbeat riff of Cool, where Allison idolizes the cool girl “with a heart of coal, She’ll break you down and eat you whole” is the understanding that being that person won’t bring her the happiness she seeks. Acceptance of one’s emotions and insecurities is the core theme of Clean - that “You gon’ be like that” (as Allison put it to the Fader) and you’ll be happier once you accept you for you. In many ways, Clean evokes a similar vibe to the Snail Mail and boygenius entries further up this year’s list, as a scrappy “girl with a guitar” indie record and a tongue-in-cheek stage name. That sense of charming honesty is what, I think, makes Clean stand above the other entries on this list.

Highlights: Cool, Your Dog, Last Girl, Scorpio Rising

2) Lamp Lit Prose - Dirty Projectors

The first of our top two is another repeat offender on this list (a previous incarnation of the Projectors’ Swing Lo Magellan had #7 back in 2012 and last year’s eponymous Dirty Projectors was my 2017 #8). I loved every minute of Lamp Lit Prose - it’s almost a 1B for me on this list and was pencilled in at 1 for a time in the drafting process. This album has everything that was good about last year’s DPs record but is, ultimately, tighter, more fun, less weird and less sad. Dave Longstreth appears to have moved on (at least musically) from the emotions he was working through on Dirty Projectors, which was essentially an extended meditation on the breakup of his relationship with Amber Coffman and the band’s upheaval. With Lamp Lit Prose, his “new look” Dirty Projectors (with help from friends like Syd, Rostam and HAIM) have put together something a little more traditional (by Dirty Projectors standards) and a lot more listenable. Longstreth told Exclaim that this album, compared its morose predecessor, “is really about feeling hope again, finding the things that give us hope, that make us feel optimistic and joyful.” Lamp Lit Prose falls somewhere between the twangly, jam band atmosphere of the Projector’s Swing Lo Magellan and Bitte Orca heyday and the more experimental, electronic-infused vibe of the Dirty Projectors released 18 months prior. Longstreth’s guitar riffs are again front and centre, but the voice modulation and distorted electronic sounds are still there, albeit in a more subtle way. Four part harmonies bounce over the jazzy melodies and hopeful lyrics. Where he was mourning a lost love on the last record, here we see Longstreth “in love for the first time ever” on I Found It In U (a salvaged beat from his work on Solange’s last album). On Break Thru, the un-named romantic subject is held up as “an epiphany” with comparisons in quick succession to Archimedes, Fellini and Julian Casablancas. The horn-backed chorus on What Is The Time is the high point of the record for me - the kind of song that makes you want to raise your voice and join in on the hook. All in all, it’s just great to hear this band making fun music again. Lamp Lit Prose is upbeat, creative and simply a joy to listen to. I absolutely loved this album... but just not quite enough to edge out our number 1.

Highlights: Break-Thru, That’s a Lifestyle, I Found It In U, What Is The Time

1) ASTROWORLD - Travis Scott

IT’S LIT!!! I would have never predicted that a Travis Scott album would land here at number 1, but here we are. And I feel good about it. ASTROWORLD dominated my listening from its mid-summer release onward and, with each spin, I became increasingly convinced of its greatness. Travis is an artist that I’ve long found perplexing. Insanely popular among his legions of young fans, he embodies so much of the “new rap” ethos, the first genre of music where I’ve started to feel like I might be ‘too old’ to enjoy it. It was clear on his prior outings, Rodeo and Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight, that the talent and creativity was there, but the overall product always seemed messy, disorganized, unpolished. With ASTROWORLD, Scott finally has made his Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. The album is named for a former Six Flags theme park in Scott’s hometown of Houston that was torn down a decade ago and still sits vacant. Previewing the title of the album, Scott told GQ last year: "They tore down AstroWorld to build more apartment space. That's what it's going to sound like, like taking an amusement park away from kids. We want it back. We want the building back. That's why I'm doing it. It took the fun out of the city." True to his word, the album’s 17 tracks are tied together by an overarching creepy, grimy sound. Listening to ASTROWORLD feels like walking through an abandoned theme park. Even more impressive is how Travis, as curator of the album’s varied guest list, bends the star studded guest appearances to his will, fitting them in perfectly to his dank sonic menagerie. The likes of Frank Ocean, the Weeknd, Swae Lee, Tame Impala and James Blake don’t overpower Scott’s vision but blend into the scenery, their talents employed perfectly by Travis in the role of ringmaster. Newcomers get some shine too, like Scott’s Cactus Jack labelmate Sheck Wes who gets a guest verse on NO BYSTANDERS and a shoutout to his ubiquitous single from Travis on 5% TINT: “We did some things out on the ways that we can't speak, All I know it was "Mo Bamba" on repeat”. And then, there’s SICKO MODE. Why is it that the best Drake song each year invariably comes from someone else’s album, even in a year where Drizzy himself releases a double album? The ASTROWORLD track list, at least initially, left out the featured artists, so hearing Drake’s voice over the opening notes of the album’s third track was the first time most listeners had any indication that the 6ixgod himself would be making an appearance. What a wonderful surprise it turns out to be. SICKO MODE, the album’s best track, feels like three or four different songs as the beat changes form and Travis and Drake pass the mic back and forth. The song’s Tay Keith produced final act (the “out like a light” part) is for my money the best two minutes of hip hop music made in 2018. ASTROWORLD succeeds on its grandeur, vision and consistency. Travis Scott set out to build something big and from the moment the bass kicks in on STARGAZING through to the mellow, string backed denouement of COFFEE BEAN, he succeeds at every turn. ASTROWORLD was 2018′s biggest, most creative, most sonically consistent and most fun album in hip-hop. In my estimation, it’s the best album of the year.

Highlights: STARGAZING, CAROUSEL (ft. Frank Ocean), SICKO MODE (ft. Drake, Swae Lee and Big Hawk), WAKE UP (ft. The Weeknd), CAN’T SAY (ft. Don Toliver)

That’s all folks. Thanks for reading and see ya in 2019.

Slippin

[Intro – Future:] I’m slipping, I’m falling I gotta get up I’m slipping, I’m falling I can’t get up But I’m slipping, I’m falling I gotta get up I’m slipping, I was falling Yeah I bet I’ll get up I’m slipping, I’m falling I know I’m getting up I’m slipping, I’m falling I better get up But I’m slipping, I’m falling I gotta get up

[Chorus – Future:] Use that money for motivation Them same ones that came up with me hating When money talking, it can change a conversation They’d rather see me locked in shackles, watch me take off I’m dedicated, but I’m running out of patience Hoping these pain pills take away frustration We drinking lean and pouring up until the eighth gone On medication, me and Satan conversating

[Verse 1 – Meek Mill:] Okay that lean had me slipping, damn dawg you tripping Had to tell my niggas and stay focused on the mission Now we at the Grammys, started in the kitchen And I brought the family, fuck them other niggas Cause ain’t nobody listen when I told em I would blow Now the VIP be crowded every city that I go Shorty said she like my style, I be thinking, yeah I know Would’ve never gave me play back in the day when I was broke So I ball hard, post it on the Gram just to motivate em When you’re getting money, niggas broke, they supposed to hate it Hurt my heart when I seen my closest homie caught the vapors Gotta watch em closely, backstabbers they poke me Shot me, brought me down on my knees, tried to Derrick Rose me Won em a ring, still did me like I was Kobe Talked down on me when they thought that I slipped You niggas crazy if you thought I would quit, no!

[Chorus]

[Verse 2 – Dave East:] Yo, being broke is so embarrassing, got sick of wasting time I took some packages to Maryland Me and Leek, couple pounds of tree in the caravan Before I ever wrote a rhyme, I had a scam Might have been young, but I had a plan I wanted designer clothes Pooch was in the kitchen with a lot of coke I wanted this money since a snotty nose We was in the staircase, watching fiends drifting off Now it’s Teterboro flying private jets, lifting off Tell the pilot I just need to know when we about to land I was watching Ds sending out them fiends Stashed a couple pieces in my Nike sock Never could I like a cop My man ain’t know his mother used to like the cop Damn, homie A Cuban chain and a Rollie’ll make your man switch Same one you flipped grams with and split your sandwich Meek told me just get this money and motivate em It’s no debating, if you broke we ain’t got no relation Harlem!

[Chorus]

[Intro – Meek Mill:] (Chopsquad) How many of y’all niggas wanna go against me? We kill all you mothafuckin’ haters You know how long it took me to get here and y’all niggas still talkin’? R.I.P. to Lil Snupe

[Verse 1 – Meek Mill:] You wanna see a dead body, come roll with Ricky My wrist and neck cost a Bugatti, I’m smokin’ sticky They think I’m in Illuminati, thought that was silly Shit, all them years that I was starvin’, and now I’m filthy I wanna see my haters dead, talkin’ bloody murder Cause when it’s beef I give ’em bread and make a fucking burger And everytime I hear ’em shootin’, I get fucking nervous We put them ghosts back to back, it look like fucking hearses Killing niggas, kill them all, funeral stickers Lord please forgive them they not know what I do to these niggas Be with pirañas in the water to chew through these niggas They killed my homie we came back and hit two of them niggas

[Chorus – Meek Mill:] Lord, please forgive them they not know Lord, please forgive them they not know Lord, please forgive them they not know And when we hit them let their souls The devil coming and I seen it We fear Allah only I mean it And Inshallah my soul the cleanest Committed sins and I redeemed it Lord please forgive them they not know (we let ’em go if they not know) Lord please forgive them they not know (we let ’em go if they not know) Lord please forgive them they not know (we let ’em go if they not know) And when we hit them bless they souls (lord)

[Dex Osama:] I done seen the motherfucking reaper standing over me Momma crying like “You gotta change your life son. You got death on you.” I’m like, “Damn!” you hip? I’m like I’m about to die but I don’t know when I just know I’m about to die soon, you hip? Like this motherfucker just came and gave me a visit

[Verse 2 – Meek Mill:] Look in my eyes, what do you see? Heart of a killer I pull up they looking surprised what could it be? Is it the money, the hoes, I’m feeling the vibe, I’m still in the streets And shoutout to niggas that’s still on my side cause niggas capeesh So it’s any means necessary, no love not in February They gave my dawg life so he come home like a Nevuary Was never scary I hit the lights and say Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary Lately I been lurking where the reaper creeping we been creeping Hit a nigga 20 times, leave him sleeping, see him leaking, we the reason He was fresh to death like it was Easter weekend Mama selling dinner platters when that boy got hit with ladders No insurance, no informants, close the case Open casket I’m like how they closed his face And I got cake and I can’t lie I cannot wait to stop back by and set y’all straight

[Chorus – Meek Mill:] Lord please forgive them they not know Lord please forgive them they not know Lord please forgive them they not know And when we hit them bless they souls The devil coming and I seen it We fear Allah only I mean it And Inshallah my soul the cleanest Committed sins and I redeemed it Lord please forgive them they not know (let them go if they not know) Lord please forgive them they not know (let them go if they not know) Lord please forgive them they not know (let them go if they not know) And when we hit them bless they souls

EP: 4-4 Pt 2

Meek Mill EP: 4-4 Pt 2 Album Lyrics

[therappundit]

May 2017 - *PlayLi$t of the Month*

Here we are, in that weird middle zone of the year where it’s not quite summer, but it’s too damn muggy to be spring. Yup, we have already gotten a taste of what kinda heat summer 2017 is going to bring, which means we need to adjust our playlists accordingly. 

Much like 2016, rap music in 2017 has brought us the kind of diversity in sound styles which is guaranteed to make arguments about everyone’s ‘Best Of’ lists interesting. But let’s not got ahead of ourselves, the year is still young, and these are just some of the joints I’ve been bangin’ this month...

1. “Spurs” - Conway ft. Benny

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1AtRI-wU34

(My favorite cut off of Conway’s Reject On Steroids. The beat is hard enough to chip a tooth on, and Benny & Conway are sounding like Jadakiss & Styles P on steroids right now.)

2. “Issa” - 21 Savage ft. Drake & Young Thug

http://www.stereogum.com/1942825/21-savage-issa-feat-drake-young-thug/music/

(21 reminds me of a modern rap hybrid of Snoop and 50 Cent. He’s able to sound chill on every track, but his persona is intimidating enough to add gravitas to every threat he delivers. Drizzy and Thugga sound like they’re having fun on this one, too...which makes me wonder if inclusion of this song on More Life’s track list would have made life a little more interesting.)

3. “Bleacher Report” - Willie The Kid & V Don

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTGXG-iwGVs

(Possibly the most raw track on Willie The Kid & V Don’s Deutsche Marks tape, V laces WTK with militaristic drums, backed by a spooky sample which Willie proceeds to tap dance over with some slick bars that would make Raekwon and Roc Marciano tip their caps. This project should officially anoint V Don an elite underground producer, and successfully welcomes back Willie to the highest rung of the underground wordsmith ladder. I hope this means WTK is back on the scene for good.)

4. “Legendary” - Jamal Gasol ft. Sage Infinite

https://soundcloud.com/jamal-gasol/legendary-ft-sage-infinite-prod-intifada-beats

(It seems to be a recurring theme: what is happening in upstate New York!? Niagara Falls’ Jamal Gasol connects with The Winners’ Sage Infinite to light up an eerie instrumental as if they were auditioning for a record contract. Bars on top of bars on this one...and to borrow a line from Sage, this thing is HARD like "missing lay-ups and having to hustle back". )

5. “iLL” - Conway & DJ Green Lantern ft. Royce Da 5′9

http://nahright.com/2017/05/23/dj-green-lantern-ft-royce-da-59-conway-ill/

(When The Machine and 5′9 get together, you know that you’re in store for rewind-worthy material. Reject On Steroids is packin’ some heat, folks.)

6. “Magnolia” - Playboi Carti

https://soundcloud.com/678carti/magnolia-1

(An early contender for the summer smash crown, Carti might not spin gold over Pierre’s fun & bouncy beat, but he certainly knows how to provide a contagious flow when he needs one. This track is begging for a star-studded remix.)

7. “Tiddly Winks [stx]” - Mach-Hommy & Knxwledge

https://mach-hommy.bandcamp.com/track/tiddly-winks-stx

(Mach and Knxwledge sneakily dropped a tape on Bandcamp roughly two weeks ago, but no worries folks, I was all over it. As a MC + producer combo, the two have natural chemistry, and right now I feel like this track off of The Spook is the best example of that.)

8. “Left Hollywood” - Meek Mill

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dw0UufFr0qM

(Meek dropped a few tracks this month, and this one was easily the gem of the bunch. Meek still has a raw hunger and energy that comes off well when combined with the right production, and he is certainly at his strongest when dropping verses that reflect on his past, as he does on “Left Hollywood”.)

9. “24 Hours” - Willie The Kid & V Don ft. Roc Marciano

https://soundcloud.com/thewilliethekid/24-hrs-feat-roc-marciano-prod-vdon

(Willie and Roc Marci sound like two peas in a pod on this smooth work of mafioso music. These two would do considerable damage on a group project.)

10. “RAF” - A$AP Mob ft. A$AP Rocky, Playboi Carti, Quavo, Lil Uzi Vert & Frank Ocean)

http://www.thefader.com/2017/05/23/stream-asap-mob-raf-asap-rocky-playboi-carti-quavo-lil-uzi-vert-and-frank-ocean

(A much hyped - but somewhat basic - gathering of some of today’s biggest mainstreamers, I can’t help but feel like “RAF” sounds like a J.V. version of “Mercy”. That being said, A$AP Mob cuts have a tendency to grow on me, and this one has already induced a fair share of head-nodding upon repeated listens. Looking forward to Cozy Tapes, Pt. 2, whenever it drops.)

*Honorable Mention - Bonus Cuts*

“Dead Bodies Left” - Conway

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxRFWC4WPUU

(At this point, not many MC’s can come close to Con with the autobiographical street talk.)

“Through It All” - Conway

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7HfpzsaIWg

(If you’re still sleeping on Griselda Records, I simply don’t know what to do with you.)

“Jean Claude Van Damme” - Slayter & Jace

https://soundcloud.com/coldgameslayter/jcvd

(Slayter and Two9′s Jace talk their talk over a cool 70′s blaxploitation-esque backdrop.)

“Montega” - Grandmilly

https://soundcloud.com/grandmilly/montega

(I know very little about the Hempstead MC, but I know that Hempstead knows how to breed MCs and I am feelin’ the vibe on this soulful joint.)

“On The Moon” - Rockie Fresh ft. King Louie

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6thxuuVIT_c

(This instrumental is sick. Rockie Fresh is still a curveball artist - you never know what sub-genre of hip-hop Rockie is going to bring to the table. Here he sounds like he’s on a hard-Drake wave, which mostly works...but then King L comes through with his strong mic presence to make this cut a winner.)
