Thinking again how it would feel infinitely more realistic if any given installment of Fallout included multiple Pip-Boy models. Like, 2000, 2000-VI, 3000, 3000-IV, etc etc. Why is there only one model type visible in a given installment? Design simplicity? Surely, like how some people have the newest iPhone, and others still have their fifteen year old Razr, different models could've gotten scavenged. One area ever only getting a single model distributed feels... so unrealistic in a hyper-capitalist setting.

More NPCs should also have one. I know they're supposed to be incredibly rare (and potentially difficult to refurb/restore) but that doesn't mean it's prohibitively impossible for a non-Vault Dweller to have one. Esp. when NPCs on multiple occasions will insinuate you must've killed someone for the one you're currently wearing, or at the very least, someone died for you to get it.

I really wish we could see someone with a jury-rigged refurb Pip-Boy that's held together with bubblegum and spite. Someone whose Pip-Boy only works if it's plugged into a terminal. People with a newer or older model than the one your character's been given at the beginning. Being offered more chances than just the Pimp-Boy to change which one you've got.

It's kind of disappointing that 76 doesn't have Pip-Boy skins that make them look like other models, or even plans that let you craft other models that you can skin. (My line of thinking with this is many things--e.g. the Secret Service Underarmor, Binoculars, Jetpacks, etc.--come in multiple colors/patterns, but instead of recoloring the base one, you craft a new one. The ATX recolors for the Ranger Outfit feels pertinent precedent too somehow, but I can't put a finger on it.)

Anyway. More Pip-Boy variation within a single game setting pls.

Shark in the UK 🦈

⊹˚₊‧───────────────‧₊˚⊹

Hi everyone,

As you might have noticed I was pretty silent since my arrival in the UK. I must admit that I have been through a lot of stress and changes in a very short amount of time and it's only now that I'm finally getting used to this new situation. Below you'll find a detailed post of my adventures so far, so if you are not interested you can simply ignore this and just keep in mind that I'll be returning to my posting schedule and fan-fictions very soon. For those who are curious, fasten your motherfucking seat-belts.

While I'm not an organized person I become one when I have something important planned so I was so well prepared for this journey that I was convinced I was safe from any misadventures... How wrong I was. I was barely done with the security controls at the airport when I realized they literally broke my phone's screen. I don't know if they bumped it or not but they broke it. The same phone in which I had my boarding pass. It obviously happened the only time I didn't print my plane tickets as I usually do. :) Fortunately, my best friend had lent me his old iPhone minutes before "just in case". I managed to airdrop my boarding pass on the second phone and took the plane without trouble despite the flight being delayed by one hour.

Upon my arrival in UK, I took a taxi to the hotel and had a nice time alone. I brought myself to the restaurant and peacefully slept, getting psychologically ready to meet my host family, and oh boy. This is... Something.

When I heard the word "host family" I imagined it to be an actual family, and a bit like when you're an au pair. Retrospectively, it's completely stupid because it was never written but idk my mind went full "ok I'll live with a local family". What a surprise it was when I knocked at the door and was welcomed by one lonely man and the very acrid smell of cigarettes that jumped at my face! While my host dad (@rysko @red-riding-wood @kittenonpluto pimp nickname they said) was extremely nice and welcoming, the more he showed me around the more my face dropped. I wasn't going to spend months in a local family but in an old house more or less laid out like a hostel. A hostel with a strong cigarette smell almost everywhere, five other girls, one dude, and dirt. The differences between my expectations and reality were huge and, as you can imagine, the pill was difficult to swallow. I swear when he opened the door I was this close to run away lmao.

Between my accommodations and the new rhythm of the international school I'm studying in, my mind went completely foggy for a few days. I didn't know what to think or what to feel anymore. Worse, I didn't know if my money was well-spent or if I just got scammed. Now, read what follows before you call me "ungrateful" or "princess-like".

It’s not what I got that made me feel bad, but rather the stupid and nonsensical expectations I had in mind. Then, I slowly realized that it wasn't because I hadn't expected it and that it couldn't be fun. Maybe it had a lot to do with how nice the five other girls and the people at my school are, but I started // I am starting to really enjoy it. The house might be old and not "that clean" (or at least not as clean as I'm used to), but the host dad is lovely, cooks for us every day, we have fast wifi, are close to the school, we have a key and are free to come and go as much as we want without a curfew, and the bedrooms, as well as the toilets, are clean. To be honest, some students have it really worse. I mean, I'm talking about students having to sleep in a room crowded with 7 people, or having to sleep on a mattress on the ground, the host family asking them to buy and cook their own food to the extent of some even locked the kitchen's door at night to avoid the student snacking/stealing food at night. Or students who are on 1 hour of bus-trip long from the school — those conditions I find absolutely disgusting for the extremely expensive price the students have to pay for this language exchange. With everything said, I consider myself lucky despite the cigarette smell and the "clean but not really clean" house.

As I'm writing this, it's Saturday 10 am and I can finally say it: I'm happy to be here, it's a one-life experience and I'm incredibly lucky my parents offered it to me. Unfortunately, I've caught a very bad cold and I've been sick since Wednesday: I think the combination of my emotional rollercoaster, the crazy British weather, my fatigue and half of my classroom being sick have finished me off. Now I can't wait to get better to start attending to a shitton of activities, planning trips around, and going to the pub. Also, I've got my nails done! Look at my freakin' sharp claws teehee.

Congratulations if you're still there by the way, lmao! Thank you for reading my nonsense. I'll be back very soon, both for writing and commenting, just wait for my cold to get better!

Love,

Shark.

Hey, may I ask you what App you're using to get the endless gems? What are your experiences with it? Various ways to pimp the game have already been suggested to me. But everyone came with a warning that they could bring bugs or something like that. Don't want to sacrifice my tablet for a game. 😅

hi anon!

i just use the regular love island game on my phone, it just has modded gems!

unfortunately the way i did it no longer works as i did it pre s6. but @caitkaminski has a updated mod guide work around which you can find here

just be careful when modding your game, with modding there always is risks of things like viruses and such but if you use a mod from a trusted place like anywhere suggest in cait’s guide you should be safe.

when you mod your game you don’t get any bugs the only thing that happens (i guess) is that you don’t get the unlimited tickets as well in some cases if the mod gets transferred over to a iOS device.

just be careful & mod your game safely, my recommendation is install a verified and trusted anti-virus software onto your tablet prior to modding just in case so it can detect if there was any malware or virus install and install your mod from a trusted source used by many like what is recommended in cait’s tutorial!

happy modding!!

Merry Christmas Eve, bitch. It’s Christmas Eve in Tinseltown and Sin-Dee is back on the block. Upon hearing that her pimp boyfriend hasn’t been faithful during the 28 days she was locked up, the working girl and her best friend, Alexandra, embark on a mission to get to the bottom of the scandalous rumor. Their rip-roaring odyssey leads them through various subcultures of Los Angeles, including an Armenian family dealing with their own repercussions of infidelity.

Letterboxd:

Honestly the most “LA” movie I’ve seen in a long time- by which I mean it captures the spirit and feeling and people of LA as I know it, more than so many other films that try to depict LA as people want to see it. The iPhone aesthetic of it all lost its value to me so quickly and became really distracting and kind of frustrating, but I still really dug this! I love that Sean Baker seems dedicated to making humanizing depictions of the lower class that don’t lean heavily on the tragedy of living without privilege (save for one moment that was so unexpected it kind of broke my heart.)

‘It’s Britney, B**ch!’ X App Users Flame Justin Timberlake After ‘Toxic’ Singer Airs Out Wack Blaccent

MadameNoire Featured Video

Pop sensation Britney Spears has the internet hollering after she called out her ex Justin Timberlake and his phony blaccent in her latest memoir. Black X users also applauded her for recognizing that “Fo’ Shizzle” originated from Black folks.

The “Sometimes” hitmaker released her memoir, The Woman in Me, Oct. 24, dropping spicy deets hidden from public knowledge — from the conservatorship and her family to romantic relationships. Actress Michelle Williams narrated the audiobook.

Related Stories

X users clowned the “Rock Your Body” artist, and these were the best responses. You can hear Williams narrating the Ginuwine ditty below. The actress’ imitation of JT’s blaccent was an eye-opener.

Track 14 in the audiobook version of The Woman In Me left the internet in shambles. Spears claimed Timberlake’s former group, NSYNC, differed from other ’90s boy bands like Backstreet Boys (and Westlife) because they hung around and tried to fit in with the Black artists while the other white groups stayed in their lanes. The “Slave 4 U” singer stated people used to call NSYNC “So Pimp.”

“His band, NSYNC, is what people back then called ‘so pimp,'” she said. “They were white boys, but they loved hip-hop. To me, that’s what separated them from the Backstreet Boys, who seemed very [conscious] to position themselves as a white group. NSYNC hung out with Black artists. Sometimes, I thought they tried too hard to fit in.”

Spears then recalled when Timberlake took her to a town in New York, unfamiliar to the “Baby One More Time” star, and they ran into R&B icon Ginuwine. According to Spears, the “Cry Me a River” singer had no shame in putting on a spurious blaccent. 

“J got all excited and said so loud, ‘Oh yeah, fo’ Shizz, fo’ Shizz, Ginuwine. What’s up, homie?'”

It’s unclear if Ginuwine responded to Timberlake’s foolishment, but he did walk away.

X users took jabs at the musician who had profited off Black culture even before his NSYNC disbandment by posting old photos and clips of ’90s Timberlake to back her allegations. From his cornrows to his adopting a more urban accent, the receipts did the job!

One X user shared a clip from an NSYNC HBO special that aired in July 2000, where Timberlake did a beatbox session while dancing around the stage before the band dove into “It’s Gonna Be Me.”

X users clowned the “Rock Your Body” artist, and these were the best responses. You can hear Williams narrating the Ginuwine ditty below. The actress’ imitation of JT’s blaccent was a hilarious eye-opener.

Timberlake profited from dousing his music, fashion sense and style with elements of Black culture.

It’s no coincidence that Timberlake transitioned from singing bubblegum pop in a boyband to making pop-R&B hits and accumulating an over $200 million net worth. Right after the accusedculture vulture disbanded from NSYNC, he started his solo career and released his debut album, Justified. Tracks on the record were written and produced by well-known producers like Timbaland, Pharrell Williams, Chad Hugo and Brian McKnight. Additionally, Timberlake donned cornrows to complement his new urban sound. Amid his attempts to “woo” the urban crowd, the Memphis native stayed silent on Black issues.

For example, after Janet Jackson’s jaw-dropping wardrobe malfunction at the 2004 Super Bowl, over 540,000 complaints were sent to the Federal Communications Commission. Jackson received the brunt of the nation’s anger despite Timberlake being the one who exposed her breasts.

The “Rock Your Body” hitmaker apologized for the incident years later.

50 Best Hip-Hop Albums of All Time

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of hip-hop

Consequence Staff

August 1, 2023 | 11:00am ET

This month marks the 50th anniversary of hip-hop. While the official birthday is August 11th, 2023, we’ll be commemorating five decades of this culture-defining movement with a month-long celebration. From unique artist interviews to insightful essays and more, we’ll explore the history of rap from a variety of angles. It all begins today with our list of the 50 Best Hip-Hop Albums of All Time.

Keep an eye out for all our Hip-Hop 50content throughout the month, and check out our exclusive merch featuring our Hip-Hop 50 design at the Consequence Shop.Ever since DJ Kool Herc laid down the foundation of hip-hop with his innovative record breaks, countless albums have been released from all sorts of regional scenes and subgenres that have sprouted from the concrete. Breaking down 50 years of LPs by immediate impact and lasting influence, it’s easy to pick out instant classics like To Pimp a Butterfly and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, or groundbreaking releases from the likes of Missy Elliott, Wu-Tang Clan, and OutKast.

However, it’s all too easy to give in to the temptation of assigning multiple entries to the all-time great artists. By limiting each rapper or group to one slot each, we opened up this list to include a wider range of MCs who have undeniably seized their moments. From street rap royalty to oddball outcasts to straight up supervillains, there are hundreds of artists who have spoken to whole generations, shifting culture with their words and beats. We took care to recognize that wide variety to reflect how hip-hop has impacted the cultural landscape over the past five decades.

Even so, with only 50 spots, difficult cuts had to be made. But music is an art and its appreciation is subjective, so we stand behind the heated debates and tough choices that led us here. Check out the 50 best hip-hop albums of all time below.

50. Lil Wayne – Tha Carter II

Way before he was “President Carter” with a sweet tooth for some “Lollipop” and “Truffle Butter,” Lil Wayne was steadily pumping out fire album after fire album. Still, The Carter II reigned amid the onslaught of releases in 2005. Young Mula Baby’s fifth album had the perfect cocktail of club-appropriate jams and disgustingly sick freestyle flows. Back then, so many of us could spit “Fireman” and “Hustler Musik” start to finish without hesitation. Lil Wayne had a tight grip on the 2000s, and The Carter II helped him make that grip even tighter. — Cervanté Pope

49. Foxy Brown – Ill Na Na

Foxy Brown was 18 when she dropped Ill Na Na, but she raps like a grown woman. Having already shown that hanging with the fellas presented no problem, Foxy topped some of them on her solo debut. Although Method Man, JAY-Z, and Havoc all came out to play on the album, no one upstaged Foxy. She presented a different lane for women in hip-hop, shunning baggy clothes and never faking modesty about her sexual desires, while positioning herself as a queen of pen crime who ran with her own crew, The Firm, and put other rappers in their place if they got out of line. Even on a song about sex and romance like “Get Me Home,” she’s in control and never once relents. Ill Na Na is a big moment in the now-long history of proving women are just as commercially viable as men, but it’s also great rapping from front to back with talented producers behind the boards. — Marcus ShorterAdvertisement

TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s Cover Story is Now Available in a Limited Edition Collector’s Box

48. Jeezy – Thug Motivation 101

Coming off his classic Gangsta Grillzmixtape Trap or Die, Jeezy brought his trademark rasp to the big-time on his major label debut without sacrificing the larger-than-life Snowman persona that brought him there. Bringing a well-earned authenticity to his aspirational rhymes, the Atlantan stood toe-to-toe with fellow dope boy (and label boss) JAY-Z on “Go Crazy,” crafting a trap music opus over anthemic beats from frequent collaborator Shawty Redd, Mannie Fresh, and Akon. Jeezy puts it best on “Standing Ovation,” when he proclaims, “I am the trap.” — E. FuAdvertisement47. Gang Starr – Hard to Earn

Times change, and after facing criticism for his perceived reliance on jazz samples, Gang Starr’s resident sonic wizard DJ Premier flipped the bird to the naysayers by crafting nearly an hour’s worth of hard-hitting, relatively jazz-free beats. The late Guru, for his part, adapted to the change in sound like he’d been waiting for it his entire career. The turn earned them their Parental Advisory sticker and first Billboard Hot 100 Hit, “Mass Appeal.” The result was the defining document of the duo, a record that represents both Gang Starr’s innovative music and unflinching ethos. — Jonah Krueger

46. Kid Cudi – Man on the Moon: The End of Day

Even during the blog era when the boundaries of hip-hop were being pushed in new directions, Kid Cudi stood out as a trailblazer. The Lonely Stoner caught the attention of his idol Kanye West and signed to G.O.O.D. Music thanks to a knack for Auto-Tuned melody conveying his emotional struggles in a relatable manner and a unique sound mixing hip-hop with psychedelic rock, indie pop, and electronic music. Coming off the breakout success of “Day ‘N’ Nite,” Cudi brought a sea change to hip-hop as exemplified by deeply personal songs like “Soundtrack 2 My Life” and “Pursuit of Happiness (Nightmare),” positioning himself at the forefront of a generation and impacting countless rappers who came after him. — E. Fu

45. Nicki Minaj – The Pinkprint

The Pinkprint took just about every critique Nicki Minaj endured in her early years and recontextualized them into a declaration of power: She didn’t need to sleep her way to the top, but would have made her male counterparts look like fools if she had. For the doubters that thought Nicki had lost her spark since her mixtape days, she spit some of the most witty lines of her career. And after being called too pop, Nicki doubled down and mixed in piano ballads and synth bangers with the heavier-hitting tracks. The Pinkprint laid out on the table everything that made Nicki, Nicki, and perhaps more importantly, served as a guidebook for contemporary rappers to follow. — Abby Jones

44. 50 Cent – Get Rich or Die Tryin’

No skips and all bangers is a pretty good blueprint for an album and more artists should try it. Get Rich or Die Tryin’ isn’t what you’d call deep, but it is all-gas-no-breaks fun, starting with the triple threat that opens the album, “What Up Gangsta,” “Patiently Waiting,” and “Many Men (Wish Death),” and including the platonic ideal of the club single, “In Da Club.” The man born Curtis Jackson had a gift for earworm hooks, which could be heard on singles “P.I.M.P.,” and “21 Questions,” as well as deeper cuts like “High All the Time” and “Wanksta.” On this debut, 50 Cent and his executive producers Eminem and Dr. Dre simply never miss. — Wren GravesAdvertisement

43. Geto Boys – We Can’t Be Stopped

By the time Geto Boys dropped We Can’t Be Stopped in 1991, rappers had long addressed the toll of growing up in the projects. However, the trio still found new ground to break on their signature track “Mind Playing Tricks on Me” with intricately detailed lyrics about trauma, suicidal thoughts, and paranoia. Though Scarface was the standout rapper of the group, Willie D and Bushwick Bill were no slouches, either. Together, they put Houston on the map with their brand of horrorcore rhymes and brazenly embraced controversy about their lyrical content by putting a photo of Bill in the hospital on the album cover. On the title track, Geto Boys went one step further and called out Geffen Records for refusing to distribute their previous LP. In the end, the group had the last laugh when We Can’t Be Stopped became their most successful album. — E. FuAdvertisement42. J Cole – 2014 Forest Hills Drive

J. Cole knew he was creating something special when he was working on 2014 Forest Hills Drive, a nod to the address of his childhood home in North Carolina. Consider the fact that halfway through the sprawling “Note to Self,” he starts thanking his collaborators and crew for the success of an album that hadn’t come out yet. But that confidence wasn’t misplaced. Cole is an all-time great curator of beats, with an intuitive sense of how to use his voice to hit the vibe. By going back to basics, 2014 Forest Hills Drive cemented him as an essential voice in the modern hip-hop landscape and, eventually, allowed him to go Platinum with no features. —Mary Siroky

41. Cypress Hill – Black Sunday

Cypress Hill were hardly the first MCs to rap about weed, but they may be the first to turn their love of the sticky icky in to a hip-hop fortune and all that it can buy, including a lifetime supply of the good stuff. Black Sunday starts with “I Wanna Get High,” in case you didn’t grasp their intentions, and tracks like “Legalize It” and “Hits from the Bong” are hard to misinterpret. But Cypress Hill don’t get enough credit for their thoughtfulness, nor their hard-hitting looks at life on the streets, such as “When the Shit Goes Down.” It all comes together in smash hit and thesis statement “Insane in the Membrane,” which captures a deliriously cracked worldview. — W. Graves

40. Run-DMC – Raising Hell

It’s hard to overstate Run-DMC’s importance to the development of hip-hop. From their slew of “firsts” (first rap group to go multi-Platinum, nab a Rolling Stone cover, perform on American Bandstand, etc.) to defining the culture of rap music with their fashion and attitude, Run-DMC deserve quite a few pages in the textbook of hip-hop history — and Raising Hell is the group at its best. With all-time classics like “It’s Tricky,” “Walk This Way,” and “My Adidas,” not only is the album quote-unquote “important,” but it remains a hell of a lot of fun to spin even decades later. — J. Krueger

39. Eve – Scorpion

Eve might have been introduced to the world as the Ruff Ryders’ First Lady, but with Scorpion, she made that requisite token title feel like just a blip on her resume. Her sophomore album was unapologetic at a time when apologies were currency; not only did Scorpiondisplay Eve’s irrefutable range as an artist, but it also encapsulated the range of Black female emotion without a care in the world about being considered too sensitive, too angry, too promiscuous, or too masculine. “Eve want her own cash, fuck what you bought her,” she boasts on the braggadocious “Who’s That Girl?”, a universal declaration of bravado that’s only aged better over time. — A. JonesAdvertisement

Have a Relaxed Time with Flower Lab CBD Tinctures.

38. Juvenile – 400 Degreez

Before throwing butt became part of every social media post, such actions were banished to Freaknik excursions and rap video hijinks. There were quite a few ‘90s bangers primed for bottom jiggling, and Juvenile’s “ Back That Azz Up” (as its known in its uncensored version) is probably one of the most iconic of all time. Coming off Juvenile’s Manny Fresh-produced third album, 400 Degreez, it sits prominently among a slew of classic dirty rap songs, with “Ha” being another high amongst the gold. The album is a rollercoaster you have to ride, containing at least one of twerking’s most prolific anthems. — C. PopeAdvertisement37. GZA – Liquid Swords

It’s the subject of a hilarious comic book joke but also, like other albums enumerated here, talked about in hushed tones. Liquid Swords might be one of the few records on this list without any commercial aspirations; there’s no single for the radio or obvious crossover jams. In fact, GZA goes completely in the opposite direction, crafting something with dense lyrics about religion, politics, chess, the Brooklyn streets, and music industry pitfalls. He does it all over RZA’s beats that, after taking a brief detour for Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, get back to their Shaw Bros. martial arts movie soundscapes. Yet it felt more mature than what came before, both in sound and subject matter. GZA established himself as the Clan’s sharpest tongue and brightest mind on its darkest album. — M. Shorter

36. Lil’ Kim – Hardcore

Lil’ Kim worked hard for a career so that rappers like Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B could jump into theirs. After fashioning herself as a sharp-tongued adversary alongside mentor The Notorious B.I.G. and Lil’ Cease in Junior M.A.F.I.A., Lil’ Kim’s Hard Core debut marked a shift in how female lyricists were to be perceived going forward. Instead of “having” to stay within the confines of socially forward rhymes dressed in baggy jeans and jerseys (though there’s nothing wrong with that), Hard Core was one of the first to prove that imbuing flows with an effortless sensuality doesn’t take away from the talent itself, but rather adds to it. –– C. Pope

35. J Dilla- Donuts

Among those lost too soon, J Dilla was prolific, mild-mannered, yet massively innovative. His seminal album Donutsexists in a realm all to itself, untouchable by any other instrumental (or near-instrumental) release. Coming just a few days before Jay Dee left this astral plane, Donuts is held in the highest regard. As a “producer’s favorite producer” type of situation, Dilla’s seamless and circular beats fostered his prowess as a beat maker and a drummer, earning him heavy adoration from fans — warranted, as his knack for those lackadaisically hazy beats became highlights from his time in Slum Village to the vast cast and explorations of Soulquarians. Donuts should be regarded as the how-to guide for becoming a beat maker. Period. — C. Pope

34. Mobb Deep – The Infamous…

Play any song from The Infamous and watch certain people undergo their own werewolf transformation: The calmest souls get hyped and the meekest become hardcore gangsters. Prodigy and Havoc perfected paranoid nihilism that is both horrifying and inviting. “There’s a war going on outside no man is safe from/ You could run but you can’t hide forever/ From these streets that we done took,” aren’t words for a Hallmark greeting card. Prodigy’s raps describe a pretty dire situation, and the rest of the song travels deeper down that dark rabbit hole. But when backed by Havoc’s production, it’s hard not to enjoy “Survival of the Fittest” on every level. That summarizes their approach for an album that made painful confessions accessible, and violent threats something to celebrate. Such a violent action as stabbing someone in their face with their nose bone never sounded as sweet, or as empowering, as it does on this album. — M. ShorterAdvertisement

33. Ice Cube – Death Certificate

Ice Cube did the whole “conscious rapper” thing before it became something friendly for those who only consider people like Common, Yasiin Bey, and A Tribe Called Quest when they talk about “good” rap music. Cube presented anger steeped in righteousness and insight on Death Certificate, his second solo album after breaking away from N.W.A. A direct message for Black people recovering from the ‘80s at the dawn of the ‘90s, Death Certificate contained two visions: where we are today and where we need to go. That’s why “Givin’ Up the Nappy Dug Out” lives side-by-side with “Bird in the Hand.” The former illustrates a mentality that leads to sexually transmitted diseases, while the latter finds the main character realizing his plight and looking for a better way out before it’s too late. Cube explains how terrible socioeconomic conditions create men and women who might do things — things those with privilege look down upon or punish. While not as shocking today as it was in ’91, it’s sadly no less relevant. — M. ShorterAdvertisement32. Cardi B – Invasion of Privacy

Nobody else has taken the zig-zagging path from stripper to social media creator, then reality star, and finally, superstar rapper. But Cardi B is not quite unprecedented: She might be cut from the same cloth as Queen Latifah and Ice Cube in the sense that she is impossibly charming and good at almost everything. It’s easy to imagine alternate universes where she’s a successful actor, a powerful senator, or both. Her debut Invasion of Privacy had plenty of lead-up, with almost a year of “Bodak Yellow” dominating the charts to gin up hype, but it more than delivered. “Get Up 10” is a celebration of bars, “Drip” is a Top 10 song in the Extended Migos Universe, and “I Like It” connected her with Bad Bunny and J Balvin in addition to her Latin roots. Many stars seem to arrive fully formed, but Cardi knew she was already a star, and Invasion of Privacy is just the moment that everyone else noticed. — W. Graves

31. DMX – It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot

“I ain’t really never gave a fuck how n****s feel,” DMX growls on “Get at Me Dog,” making it clear he wasn’t interested in the flossy style of hip-hop that was popular in the late ’90s. Instead, the Yonkers native carved his own lane with an aggressive flow and visceral rhymes expressing pain and violence over rugged, barebones beats primarily crafted by Dame Grease. But it was the breakneck “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem” that showed DMX’s mainstream potential. Over Swizz Beatz’s unorthodox beat, the track spotlighted how DMX could bare his soul on one line and threaten harm to foes on the next. These contradictions came through on the spoken word “Prayer,” a peek into his conflicted relationship with God. In spite of, or perhaps because of, his demons, DMX reached an apex when both It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot and its follow-up, Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood, hit No. 1 in the same year — a particularly impressive feat in an era when Billboardonly counted CD sales. — E. Fu

30. Clipse – Lord Willin’

On paper, Clipse’s specialty of street rhymes didn’t seem like a match for The Neptunes’ off-kilter, futuristic production. But maybe there’s just something in the water in Virginia, because the duo of Pusha T and Malice’s raps about moving weight in every way possible fit like a glove with Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams’ innovative blend of spacey synths and minimalist drums. While introducing the lead single “Grindin,” Pharrell promises, “The world is about to feel something that they’ve never felt before,” and both parties deliver. Surgical with their precise flows, the Thornton brothers are seemingly incapable of running out of metaphors and similes for dealing drugs. — C. Pope

29. Drake – Take Care

Though so many of us once only knew Drake as the awkwardly charming, wheelchair-bound Degrassi heartthrob, we all could collectively slap ourselves in the face for not believing. If Thank Me Later wasn’t enough, Take Caresolidified and served as the proof that Aubrey Graham was more than just the actor we had known him to be on Canadian TV. He sang with conviction and tenderness, while bringing a mellow confidence to the stage as a rapper. That three-part okie doke he hit us with on “Crew Love,” “Take Care,” and “Marvin’s Room” certainly didn’t hurt when it came to making this album a memorable one. — C. PopeAdvertisement

28. Freddie Gibbs & Madlib – Piñata

Madlib’s collaborations with MF DOOM and J Dilla may have made his name, but his work with Freddie Gibbs cemented his place as one of the greatest producers of his generation. The beats of Piñata are atmospheric and open-ended, capable of supporting all variety of lyrical rhythms. That’s perfect for a wizard of flows like Gibbs, who weaves polysyllabic tapestries that reinterpret tropes of drugs and violence through his own upbringing in Gary, Indiana. Guest verses from Danny Brown (“High”), Raekwon (“Bomb”), and more confirm that other MCs can eat up these beats, but in 2014 it was impossible to out-rap Gibbs on his own song. Whether conjuring coked-out Pacino (“Scarface”), putting motherfuckers in their place (“Shitsville”), or enjoying the best fried chicken in the Chicagoland area (“Harold’s”), Gibbs’ Kane Train always delivers. — W. GravesAdvertisement27. MC Lyte – Lyte as a Rock

MC Lyte’s arrival on the hip-hop scene was not an immediate success, but her 1988 debut, Lyte as a Rock, would eventually become a lauded lightning bolt. Her infectious personality and unbridled confidence are on display; the title track’s spoken intro from Audio Two immediately prepares you for the arrival of a star, and each ensuing jam does little to convince you otherwise. She quickly skewers the abstract notion that hip-hop belongs to the boys — she begins “I Am Woman” with “I am woman, hear me roar,” and does exactly that — and draws upon her experiences as a young Black woman from Brooklyn. The assuredness would go on to inspire thousands of future MCs, and the subtle commentary on songs like “I Cram to Understand U (Sam),” which highlights the crack epidemic’s strain on relationships in a digestible and creative fashion, elevated hip-hop as a means to acknowledge social issues. On the surface, Lyte as a Rock is a breeze — but underneath is a fearless, fiery artist who would go on to make sure there were more seats at the table of hip-hop. — Paolo Ragusa

26. Raekwon – Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…

The album that launched a thousand mafia aliases, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… created — or revitalized — an entire rap subgenre: Mafioso rap. Over apex RZA production, Raekwon and the album’s guest star, Ghostface Killah, took the summation of their lives to that point and filtered the stories through the gang culture they witnessed on Staten Island. They also threw in references from Scarface, The Godfather, Once Upon a Time in America, and The Killerfor good measure. The Purple Tape, as it’s known by those who know, represented a very different chamber for the Wu-Tang Clan. Yes, the martial arts movie samples showed up, but unlike Method Man and Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s solo projects (which built on the group’s 1993 debut album), Rae and Ghost leaned into a mobster mentality and created their own mafia movie. Maybe that’s why rappers like Nas, JAY-Z, The Notorious B.I.G., and even Foxy Brown established their own mafia ties on records after this album. Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… not only encapsulated ’95 hip-hop, but also created a path for its next decade. — M. Shorter

25. Snoop Dogg – Doggystyle

While riding shotgun with Dr. Dre on The Chronic, Snoop Dogg brought G-funk widespread appeal thanks to his effortless cool and distinct, laidback flow. When it was his turn to take the wheel on Doggystyle, the charismatic former Crip painted a realistic picture of his life in Long Beach with vivid rhymes about maintaining his street cred (“Tha Shiznit”), partying (“Gin and Juice”), and fending off thirsty women (“Lodi Dodi”). On songs like “Murder Was the Case,” however, Snoop opened up about his fear of mortality, demonstrating there was more than his unflappable exterior beneath the surface. — E. Fu

24. Queen Latifah – All Hail the Queen

Queen Latifah’s debut album, All Hail the Queen, encapsulates the early sound of hip-hop by pairing poetic rhymes with a fusion of house music, jazz, soul, and reggae. On the Monie Love-assisted feminist rap anthem “Ladies First,” Latifah made it known that there was space for women in a male-dominated genre by rapping, “I’ma mess around and flip the scene into reverse.” Through the collection of upbeat and uplifting songs demonstrating her versatility and influence, the Jersey native delivered on that promise, proving she was here to stay while paving the way for countless women to follow in her footsteps. — Sun NoorAdvertisement

23. Black Star – Mos Def & Talib Kweli Are Black Star

The “Intro” promised two “real-life documentarians,” a contrast to the gangster theatrics and Puff Daddy party bops that dominated radio in 1998. Instead, Talib Kweli and Yasin Bey (as Mos Def) offered positivity: joyous pro-Black raps, life-affirming philosophies, goofy jokes, grand stunting, and a whiff of good green. From the double-whammy of “Definition” and “Re: Definition” through the starry night of “Respiration,” Black Star explored moods that had rarely been expressed in such vivid colors. — W. GravesAdvertisement22. Pusha T – Daytona

Pusha T states his intentions for Daytona very early on: to create his version of Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…, and that’s exactly what he did. Pusha locked himself in the studio with Ye and produced seven tracks about dope dealing, champagne wishes, caviar dreams, unforgiven sins, and unfinished rap wars. Pusha’s 2018 outing builds on everything prior (including his Clipse output), and distills what he does best into an efficient collection of raps over beats that fit like an impeccably tailored suit. We can talk about “Infrared” setting off a chain of events with Drake that still echo today, but Daytona stands out because it showed how one producer and one rapper working together towards one goal will always win out over an MC taking random beats from the hottest producers and hoping it gels together. And for several reasons unrelated to music, we may never see that again from Pusha T and Ye, which only increases its value. — M. Shorter

21. Salt-N-Pepa – Very Necessary

Salt-N-Pepa had already made their lasting mark on hip-hop with groundbreaking hits like “Push It” and “Let’s Talk About Sex,” but when it came time to record Very Necessary, the trio felt like they still had plenty to prove. Knowing it would be the last album to feature their manager Hurby Azor’s fingerprints, the Queens trio took creative control by sharing some of the songwriting and production duties, while also insisting that “Shoop” be the lead single. All that effort paid off when the flirtatious track became Salt-N-Pepa’s first Top 5 hit and its follow-up, the En Vogue collaboration “Whatta Man,” landed even higher on the charts, cementing their place among the greatest rap groups of all time. — E. Fu

20. Eminem – The Marshall Mathers LP

Hip-hop had been this funny before, and this fast, and yes, even this white, but it had never been quite this scary. On his second and best album — one in a long line of Dr. Dre masterpieces — Eminem toggled between his three primary personas: the prankster battle-rapper Eminem, the horrifying villain Slim Shady, and his realest and truest (though still cranky) Marshall Mathers self. He even put versions of them into a dialogue together on “Stan,” a prescient look at fandom in which the rapper has one version inform another, “I say that shit just clownin’ dawg.” From the cartoon jokes of “The Real Slim Shady” to the very real grievance of “The Way I Am,” The Marshall Mathers LP is a white-knuckle ride. — W. Graves

19. De La Soul – 3 Feet High and Rising

It’s crazy that whole generations have barely been able to experience the D.A.I.S.Y. Age. Unavailable on streaming services until March 2023 due to sampling clearances and label disputes, De La Soul’s 3 Feet High and Rising was where progressive rap was born. When every other major record was going hardcore, Posdnuos, Trugoy, and Maseo went playful as Prince Paul stitched bits of Johnny Cash and Steely Dan into imaginative beats that remain unmatched. Rapping about dandruff and individuality between skits of gameshows and orgies, the trio and their producer showed the art in the weird, inspiring decades of outside-the-box thinkers — and now that their work is more readily available, decades more to come. — Ben KayeAdvertisement

18. Eric B. & Rakim — Paid in Full

A message for everyone reading this: Go see Rakim live. A few seconds of his performance illustrates why Paid in Fullbelongs on this or any other list lauding hip-hop’s greatest. Rakim is the most imitated rapper in history. Period. And without him shifting the genre through force in ’87, we’re probably not celebrating a 50th anniversary. Eric B. and Rakim’s first foray showed a rapper so far beyond his peers that rhymes from more than 30 years ago sound fresh today. While most of his contemporaries put their own spin on Run-DMC’s style, the rapper from Long Island went an alternate route. That choice created an album that sounds like nothing else before it, but influenced everything after it. “I Ain’t No Joke” is more than a song; it’s a mission statement that stood the test of time because the guy who wrote it envisioned a style that no one else even thought possible. — M. ShorterAdvertisement17. Madvillain – Madvillainy

Nerds have always run rap, but they’re usually cool nerds, or philosophical nerds, or horny nerds pretending to be the cool nerds. All that is fine and dandy, but what about the nerds who just get high, read comic books, and watch Adult Swim? Two supervillains came to the rescue, Madlib and MF DOOM, whose collaborative masterpiece defies conventions and showcases an experimental blend of off-kilter beats, obscure samples, and DOOM’s cracked wordplay. No other pair would have guessed that an accordion could go so hard (“Accordion”), turned sausage making into dadaist poetry (“Meat Grinder”), or, as they do on closer “Rhinestone Cowboy,” transform applause into bizarro percussion. With non-linear song structures and unconventional storytelling, Madvillainy stands out in all the best ways. — W. Graves

16. The Notorious B.I.G. – Ready to Die

It took some coaxing from Puff Daddy, but The Notorious B.I.G.’s ability to balance his outsized street persona with his softer side as a ladies’ man allowed him to form a complete picture of the man born Christopher Wallace on Ready to Die. The Brooklyn native was equally adept at weaving stick-up rhymes over hard-hitting production from Easy Mo Bee (“Gimme the Loot”) as he was rapping over the more radio-friendly beats of Puffy and the Hitmen (“Juicy,” “One More Chance”). However, tracks like “Everyday Struggle” provided a window into his inner turmoil and what made him tick. Even before the pressure that came with wearing the crown as King of New York, Biggie was already feeling plenty of weight, and his debut album served as a testament to that truth. — E. Fu

15. Fugees – The Score

Between Lauryn Hill’s once-in-a-lifetime potential and her tumultuous relationship with Wyclef Jean inside and outside of the group, Fugees weren’t built to last. On The Score, the Jersey trio caught fire and burned so brightly that matching the album would have been a Herculean task anyway. Together with Pras and honorary member John Forté, they collaborated with outside producers like Salaam Remi and Diamond D to create an unmistakable blend of live instrumentation with choice samples and hard-hitting drums. Hill leaned into her extraordinary talents as both an MC and singer on “Fu-Gee-La” and “Ready or Not,” with a cover of “Killing Me Softly with His Song” showcasing her pure vocal chops. Meanwhile, Wyclef took the spotlight when they took on Bob Marley’s “No Woman, No Cry,” and Pras was a formidable rapper in his own right. — E. Fu

14. Beastie Boys – Paul’s Boutique

The Beastie Boys’ debut, License to Ill,was carried by their winning personalities, but the beats could be dull and the drums tended towards simple and repetitive. Although follow-up Paul’s Boutique flopped on release, it was musically on another level, building rich soundscapes out of artful samples. The bonkers “Egg Man” and “High Plains Drifter” are great in a different way than Beastie’s hard-partying hits, and “B-Boy Bouillabaisse,” the nine-song suite that closes the album, remains sharp and surprising. With Paul’s Boutique, Mike D, MCA, and Ad-Rock reached the height of their creative power and made an album that is ambitious, hungry, and endlessly charming. — W. Graves

13. Tupac – All Eyez on Me

Tupac Shakur wasn’t a man of extremes, he was a man of just one extreme — all in. And with All Eyez on Me, one of our most maximalist artists turned in his crowning classic. The 27-track, two-disc extravaganza came together in a blizzard of flows and probably chemicals, too, after Suge Knight and Jimmy Iovine paid $1.4 million in bail to spring Shakur from the pen after charges of sexual misconduct. Shakur might not have been a great man, but he was a great artist, and prison gave his art two gifts: bottomless months in which to think, and a fire under his ass now that he knew how quickly his career could go away. All that philosophy and urgency joined together for one of the most ambitious works in music history. — W. GravesAdvertisement12. N.W.A. – Straight Outta Compton

N.W.A’s first album, Straight Outta Compton, was a raw, explicit, instant classic. With producers Dr. Dre and DJ Yella alongside Eazy-E, Ice Cube, The D.O.C., and MC Ren on the mic, the group presented uncensored, politically-charged lyrics as a response to racism, violence, and police brutality. “Fuck tha Police” became a sensation by capturing a nation’s frustrations, while tracks like “Gangsta Gangsta” anticipated generations of violent raps. But N.W.A. is so much more than their headlines, incorporating elements of funk and dance music throughout the album on “Something Like That,” “Express Yourself,” and “Something 2 Dance 2.” With taboo-shattering highs and a deep roster of grooves, Straight Outta Compton rings as clear as ever. — S. Noor

11. Nas – Illmatic

How many writers over the last three decades spilled ink over Illmatic? This is hip-hop’s Mona Lisa — not to be confused with Slick Rick’s “Mona Lisa” — or Sistine Chapel ceiling. Nas’ debut entered the discourse in April 1994 and set up a permanent residence. It remains the measuring stick for solo debuts, and (sometimes unfortunately) looms like a shadow over everything Nas does. How does anyone live with a burden bigger than the Empire State Building sitting on their shoulders? Only the man formerly known as Nasty Nas knows that answer, but he and an all-star producer lineup did something few thought possible at the time by leapfrogging beyond what anyone expected from the kid who took rap by the jugular with one verse in ’91. Illmaticstill captures the imagination because it’s not only perfection, but hype realized. — M. Shorter

Week 9: Short Essays- Yanissa Agbigay

For this week, I chose Forrest Gump and Tangerine as my two film choices for week 9. First off I will start off with the classic Forrest Gump. If you haven't seen it before, Tom Hanks who plays Forrest Gump did a great job playing his roles and shows that no matter who you are or what you do, you can find your sense of happiness and future for your own well-being. Whether the reviews are recent or in the past, many people say they feel different types of emotions in the movie. Some cry, some are inspired, and some are heart warmed. All in all an amazing movie to keep going back to. Even though there are many people who would agree with me, there are still a handful of viewers who don’t enjoy watching because there is no main genre for the movie leaving others confused.

Within the same year of Forrest Gump’s release, Citizens in both Sweden and Norway voted on whether or not to join the European Union in November of 1994. The two Scandinavian countries held public referendums on the issue only one month after their neighbor Finland did the same. In Sweden, the vote came out to fifty-two percent in favor of joining the EU with an eighty-three percent voter turnout. While in Norway, fifty-two percent of voters stated they were against joining the EU with an eighty-nine percent voter turnout.

https://brilliantmaps.com/sweden-norway-eu-1994/

I have noticed that compared to Forrest Gump, Tangerine is a more modernized film and capitalizes on the situations we have in our times today. Forrest Gump is more of a classic and has a more vintage look to it.

I also chose the movie Tangerine. To give you a rundown of the film, it is about a woman who learns of her pimp/boyfriend’s disloyal behavior while she is in jail. To teach him a lesson, she asks her best friend and a couple of Transgender adult workers to do the job for her and get some sort of revenge on him. I chose this film because when I read the summary I felt interested and I wanted to see what would happen between them in the end. When watching the film, I felt dismayed because even though the woman deserves the right to know the truth and feel hurt, she could have left the situation and cut all the strings that were attached, to dissipate the situation. There are a handful of viewers who did not enjoy watching this movie. They continued by saying that the acting was awful and the movie did not showcase the LGBTQ+ community in the right ways. Although there are some other viewers who can look past these concerns and come back for more. To be more fair, I learned that the film was shot with three iPhone 5S smartphones and premiered at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival on January 23, 2015.

Within the same year of the movie’s release, Queen Elizabeth the Second became the longest-serving British monarch on September 9, 2015, surpassing the record set by her great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria with more than 63 years on the throne.

Though one movie is more modern than the other, I have noticed that they both share the same genre category as comedy. On the other hand, Tangerine is considered an Indie Film whereas Forrest Gump has no distinct genre and has a mix of many to choose from.

Lucky Dog!

1. A little link right here that takes you to all things Lucky Dog Design Co. I'll also gush a bit on who runs it.

Kayla Hutchinson runs and designs all the goods at The Luck Dog Design Co. (or as I read it at first on her table: Lucky Do Gmail Club) and lemme tell ya, folks:

She's a delight.

First off, the artistic prowess she oozes as you talk to her and peruse her wares is infectious in only the best way. Her cards, stickers and other extremely giftable items (things like mugs and tote bags) have a witty and nerdy charm all over them. An allusion to Harry Potter peeks out amongst a slew of punny and quirky birthday wishes. A few curse words are sprinkled over a few of the items and adds a little pop of surprise humor. Each design is a testament to 'attention to detail' and love for the craft of making things. They are made to truly help you connect with the person you're thinking of.

2. Pimping out my newest design seen to the left here. It's available on iPhone and Samsung cases. The stickers are free. I just... I just have to figure out how to get it to folks.

On a different note, My good friend and artist @delightedghost (Ryan Bray) helped with some of the art for my sticker on the right. I made it to talk about the well-known complaint of the cost of healthcare in the USA.

Did you know you can ask for an itemized bill from your healthcare provider?

Don't be afraid to ask about the prices of things. It's your money, your body, and you deserve to be in the know.
