Murs and 9th Wonder put a new, free, album:
https://murs9thwonder.bandcamp.com/releases
I'm mostly done with 9th Wonder at this point but I've always had a big soft spot for the combination of these two, and this isn't bad. Not great, but alright.
No post about Kanye dropping a track? C'mon, son.
Absolute trash, not gonna lie.
I'm a twit
... the state of it. Crank the odd single out, Kanye but don't go around thinking you've got a body of work.
A bit meh. Started off very promisingly with whatever that sample was, then it just descended into rehashing tired old lines and a dull beat.
On Marciano:

Best Coli-thread.
10/10 ghostwriting.Cowboys and Indians, c-notes and benjamins
my chick hit the high notes like minnie ripperton
foxtrot with the bimbo in some timbos, the kid is nimble
swing the sword like Yojimbo
to slice you like Kimbo
speak in code like Egyptian symbols
never simp hos, game complex but look simple
that's how I bang your broad like a cymbal
then flee from the law like I'm Richard Kimble
platinum chopsticks lift the codfish
organic garlic from the farmers market
Benz fold into a briefcase, don't have to park it
creep through your hood like capoeira
in bally shoes I'm from a dapper era,
my reflection so trill I had to dap the mirror
my gat's a terror
word to biz mark, the fifth spark, you catch the vapors
steak tartare with the finest capers
tell the chef to top it with a quail egg
you nikkas half-steppin with frail legs
I'm like Humphrey Bogart in Key Largo
move the weight despite the trade embargo
whip ki's like Shep did Buscemi in Fargo
I love looseys laced with white like Ricardo
the silencer make my bullets whisper
the tec peck ya bytch on her cheek like it kissed her
jags mags and dro
taggin toes and baggin blow
hos gaggin slow, pants saggin low
always into something, efil4zaggin flow
my wrists got the Last Dragon glow
post up at the Bellagio clockin chese like formaggio
breeze through the lobby slow like adagio
hollow tips make consecutive hits like DiMaggio
devilishy handsome with a Godly flow...
Ha, that thread is brilliant.
And yeah, that new Kanye, not good.
I don't like Facts at all.
While I was on his Soundcloud I listened to the other tracks which I forgot about, much more of a fan of them.

I'd love an album of stuff like that.
Kanye's dropped Real Friends, although it got removed nearly immediately. There's also a snippet of No More Parties In LA (feat. Kendrick Lamar) at the end of the track.

GOOD Fridays?
GOOD Fridays was a great time. Hope he does bring that back.
Yeah, I read he was potentially bringing the GOOD Friday's thing back. The first time round that thing set the bar ridiculously high. I still play the compilation of them all on a semi-regular basis.
"I told her I'm tryna eat out, so what we goin' to dinner for?"
Apparently he took the song down for a sec to fix an issue with the mastering. It was really good.
Very, very nice.

It will be back up shortly. When it’s back up all rippers please rip the new one instead.
KANYE WEST @kanyewest 4m4 minutes ago
Un momento, there was a slight distortion in the main loop within Real Friends.
Ye being merciful to the pirates.
The Kanye/Kendrick/Madlib-snippet sounds 10/10.
Perfectionist Kanye
That Facts damage control though.
https://soundcloud.com/kanyewest/rea...n-la-snippet-1
New version up apparently.
It's on the original Good Fridays level, I'd say. Very promising.
Swish is apparently dropping February 11th, according to the man himself on Twitter.
I'ma redownload all these now.
I'm a twit
Hopefully there's a bit more Ty$ on the album.
More 'Real Friends' and less 'Facts' please, Kanye.
Facts was a freestyle clearly not meant to be taken seriously. All that gambling has turned you stupid, Si.
Anderson.Paaks album drops on the 15th.
This is fucking wonderful
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zoPEL8LDU3I
I'm enjoying the Anderson Paak album. It's a pretty cool mixture of various styles of rap and R&B, and he seems equally adept at both. He reminds me a bit of Kendrick when he's rapping (he's obviously nowhere near as good as him, he just sounds like him), and then a little bit like a male version of Erykah Badu when he's doing the R&B thing. He's got some good producers and guests on there too. The guy is definitely a talent.
No More Parties in La full
https://soundcloud.com/kanyewest/nomorepartiesinla
Not feeling Kendrick on this, even if his verse gets better towards the end.
Kanye went in though.
Is Kendrick trying to sound like Q-Tip, or am I imagining that?
It sounds very Late Registration to me. I like it.
Heard Chance The Rapper's verse on that Busta Rhymes song with the Adele sample? I say "verse" but really he's just straight spazzing for about two minutes.
Well good.
I'm a twit
I've been meaning to check out that new Busta mixtape (which I guess that song is from) for a while now Baz, but I haven't gotten around to it. I will though.
Anyway, new year, new Curren$y EP. This one if called "The Owner's Manual" and produced entirely by Cool & Dre.

Apparently he's been back in the studio with Alchemist and the "Covert Coupe" sequel is finally on the way as well.
SWISH ("the best album of all time" - Kanye West, 2016) is finished and has a track list, so hopefully does actually come out in a few weeks as planned.
http://www.stereogum.com/1855022/kan...all-time/news/
Kanye (or whoever wrote that) has really shit handwriting.
01 “Nina Chop”
02 “Father Stretch My Hands”
03 “Waves”
04 “High Lights”
05 “30 Hours”
06 “No More Parties In L.A.”
07 “Fade”
08 “FML”
09 “Real Friends”
10 “Wolves”
Also, I was reading that B.o.B (remember when people thought he was legitimately going to be the next Andre 3k or something?) has been going on a (seemingly serious) rant about how the world is actually flat.
http://www.theguardian.com/music/201...-earth-twitter
When one user asked how no edge of the Earth had been discovered, if it were indeed flat, BoB responded: “Have u been to the edge ? or is that what your science book told you”?
Anyone listened to Jacquees? I'm feeling him.
I'm a twit
It's all about the .Paak-album right now.
So Kanye changed his album-title to Waves. Open in order:

Kanye's Twitter rant at that corny little shit Wiz Khalifa, for calling his album title into question, is amazing. He's gone for a full, 17 point outline of why he will not be entertaining any criticism from him on the matter. My favourite being number 7:
KANYE WEST ✔@kanyewest
7th I am your OG and I will be respected as such
The whole thing is great though.
http://www.stereogum.com/1855681/kan...eres-the-beef/
Kanye.
I thought I'd posted that. I'm going to have to find a way to use 'You have interrupted my creative process' on someone.
I know it probably wasn't him, but the thought of Kanye's snidely editing Wiz's Wikipedia page is pretty funny.
