The EADD Hip-Hop music thread

Yeah there is.. are they established? Do they have more than one or two albums under their belt? Then they aren't new!

except Rap isnt really about albums anymore. Its all about mixtapes. Songs that are on albums are almost always on mixtapes first.

Meek Millz hasnt dropped an album yet, is he not established?

Edo G made an album in 91 and 2008, what would that be considered?

Meek Millz has released 2 albums? Ed O.G. has released or been on albums every 2-5 years since 91? Neither artist is new, if we take new to mean not existing before, or just introduced/discovered. To be an established artist you need to prove that that first album or two wasn't a fluke.
 
what albums are you talking about? Hes only released mixtapes and was on the MMG album but thats like saying Straight Outta Compton was an Eazy E album
 
If mixtapes are becoming the new album, what does it matter? The guy has put out a shit load of work. He doesn't qualify as new.
 
stupid argument, you think what you think is new, and ill think what I think is new
 
Was wondering what Redman was releasing these days so checked his Wikipedia page and found this about his latest album a few years ago lol

"Yeah the new album Reggie. I don't really like it, it’s just the alter ego of Redman, sort of like a pussy version of myself. Just stepping up a little bit more. On the new Reggie album there is an alter ego or whatever. I just wanted to step out the box a little bit. The beats are not as good. You won’t be hearing none of the Redman antics like you usually hear, like the hard beats, Superman Luva or skits, so I sort of sold out, however you want to take it, you know? Just a little step out the box, this being slightly more family friendly and for white people. I was actually doing this album when I was doing the Blackout II album with Meth. It was supposed to be a mixtape, but it came out as an album. I was actually supposed to put out Muddy Waters II now, but this album came along. I’m gonna put out this album then Muddy Waters II next. I really ain't feeling it but you got to stay relevant, man. I would not buy this album but support anyone ignorant enough to go through and cop this piece of ish. I was steady smoking up while writing most of these tracks, man"

Anyone heard it? I am not going to download it because it sounds shite.
 
Keeping it real then eh? Fuck him if he can't be bothered. I'm listening to one of the singles on Youtube and it's more or less as he described it but a bit heavier on the nigga word than the 'family friendly' description above would suggest.

edit: Empty fucking shit with a chorus every ten seconds
 
LOL I thought so, still at least he admitted it was shit. Hope he goes back to his old style next time.
 
I dont know "new" rappers is a matter of opinion really. I know hes been around for a while but hes still made music recently. Then again Edo G had an album come out in 2008 and hes been rappin since the early 90s.

Theres really no easy way to divide new and old

I have to disagree with you there, by that logic anyone still releasing music, no matter how many years they have been doing so for, qualifies as new? To me that is a current artist, they are only new if they just started releasing music. If I were to go with your reasoning then I could call Eminem and Jedi Mind Tricks "new" because they have released albums in the last year, despite the fact they have both been making music for well over ten years. I really don't see how that makes sense?
 
Shimazu & Blunts arguing about Hip Hop the phrase

Blind leading the blind springs to mind .

The only reason Shimazu is here is cos Max Power don't take him seriously in the Hip Hop thread in NEMD .
& THose fukin lists ;)
 
Ok maybe I should re-phrease that to "Royce Da 5'9s new shit"

you can all stop crucifying me now im not even Jewish damn
