Yeah I was a lil metal head more than a hip hop head at one point but then I got a hold of some quasimoto, doom, eyedea, wu tang and atcq the love movement album and it was over from there.. now I try and venture out and listen to everything just to keep things fresh.. I've actually missed common in passing like 4 or 5 times now.. everybody's fuckin seen or met this dude somehow but I always miss him.. but typical cats were dope.. mick jenkins is solid, noname is ok.. chance was straight when he was still doing drugs.. saba n others tho idk I don't really listen to them alot or even try and venture deeper into their catalogue.. mick has popped up on my youtube and I haven't been disappointed.. n idk for the others I guess it's just like "meh.." I'm not discrediting their skill tho from the little I've heard it's just something about them that makes me not want to dive deeper I don't know why honestly.. I mean besides all that I still blast old do or die and twista almost daily.. psycho drama, crucial conflict all that shit still gets replayed.. I wonder if you were round when d30 and mul were going at it one summer.. it was super dope seeing new shit on the trains daily and all of it was fresh shit too.. that was a fun summer..

A hint for my last post.. if you're somewhat fluent with anime then the name in the title will sound familiar..

Also somebody else I feel is kind of slept on as well.. I like how tde has went about their platform and artist in their roster..

I'm from Chicago but I listen to alot of different music honestly.. I can easily go from three six, to doom, to gojira, to pearl jam to bobby womack then to some random japanese jazz band all within the same playlist.. my girl hates it cause I come across some random weird shit all the time but it be super dope tho she just don't fuck with it cause her pallet is bland imo.. she likes south park mexican like crazy, los marijuanos n shit I just can't fuck with at all.. I try and give everyone a chance.. TRY... I say that in caps cause sometimes the second that somebody speaks you get that gut feeling like "man this shit is gonna be ass" and it is.. some I've been surprised by I'll admit.. but others it's like welp here we go again.. that's kinda why I listen to just beats sometimes cause weirdly enough if they do it right just the best itself can give you more emotion and feelings than any dope verse from lil poop stain.. just like the shit I posted a page or two back, Idk it just hits alot harder to me than most of the new stuff.. I guess cause I pay attention to everything instrument wise and try and learn the rhythm or pattern first before anything idk..

Lmao dude I hate that shit.. like just fuckin spit dude all that extra shit is corny to me.. that's the shit hitman does in this battle.. in the second round he got booed ALOT cause he wasn't really sayin shit.m at 50:20 he has his lil bro come in to say some corny ass line and he jumped up all in dudes face which started all sorts of commotion.. cassidy just did his thing as cassidy usually does.. couple misses imo but compared to hitman he killed him.. I don't even fuck with battle rap anymore cause of exactly what you said and then some but I had to see this cause everyone was talking about it.. it was ok..🤷🏽‍♂️

Any body bother with this cassidy vs hitman holla battle..? It was.. meh.. cass did his thing, hitman holla tried and got booed alot.. thing I hate about battle rap nowadays is people try and be too complex and then have to explain that ONE bar for the next 4-8 bars just so people can understand what they meant.. there ain't even no flow or rhythm it's just talking while rhyming the last word to of sentence.. cass has flow tho.. hitman's lil bro of course trying to start some shit for no reason but imo hitman didn't stand a chance.. that's basically the cliff note version..

Also honorable mention to Belly.. feel like he's been kinda slept on he's pretty nice tho..

Autotune is straight when used in moderation.. the thing that just gets me is everyone now is using autotune all the time with some half assed "bibbity-bobbity-boop" ass lyrics and in the grand scheme of things it really doesn't enhance or make the song any better it just sounds even more of a jumbled mess.. I've seen videos on genius where some dudes will break their shit down and it's not too bad but then when you hear the original it's autotuned the fuck out and ruins it.. sometimes a little goes a long way but too much and I don't even wanna bother listening to any more..

the only eagle i really care about.. i mean look at those low rates..

I was gonna try and check out da 5 bloods it looked straight but I haven't given it the chance out of suspicion it'd end up being corny... Speaking of bad movies this one is literally the dumbest fucking movie I've ever seen.. sooooo fucking stupid.. props and apologies if you've unfortunately sat through this piece of shit as well...

cause i got depression...

the horrible spike lee version of Oldboy... 🤦🏽‍♂️

One female rapper I always liked but didn't at the same time was snow that product.. she can spit her ass off but my girl loves playing her early "fuck men anti man" rap shit that got old quick as fuck.. but when it comes down to it I feel she can rap circles around most easily plus she's completely independent with her own merch and everything so I give her mad props for that.. got meet n greet tickets pre covid with my girl and we share the same bday.. still super bad in person and short as shit... She got the fuck off on that last joint with crooked I..

I wonder if his son turned out to be a dreaded "tpwf" and he just sits at his coffee table every morning with his head in his hands full of disgust, disappointment and cheese steak..

Good to know I've been meaning on buying some shoes through stock x just never pulled the trigger really.. trying to get those chicago black toes and some all white jordan 1s and eventually the biohacks and these super dope BLUE collabs.. looks like they're straight out of sesame street but I got some shit that'll go with em.. I gotta buy some slip resistant doc martens soon for work.. it's weird the dress code for the shoes are either brown leather boots or navy blue converse no serve safe shit.. like man NO type of fuckin traction especially walking through the kitchen I hate it.. plus I got some wide fuckin feet these chucks rip on the side after like 4 months got my pinky toe hanging out the side of the whip like joker riding through gotham.. least I know the docs will last...

my first tape ever was a chicago juke mix tape i got from my sister.. first ever cd i remember getting was puff daddy no way out.. to this day that song is this the end with twista is still so dope to me.. we also had a cholo ass neighbor that would come by for dinner sometimes and smoke with my parents he would let me come by his crib and borrow cds from time to time.. thats how i found out about cypress hill from that album with dr greenthumb on it.. i also got in mad trouble in like 5th grade for bringing a bone thugs n harmony cd to cd day.. soon as they screamed MUTHA FUCKA i knew i was done for lmao theres some shit i would let my son listen to but some of this mainstream stuff hell nah.. idk just too stupid to me.. alot of it just sounds so redundant and repetitive and these kids aint saying a damn thing.. too fucked up off prescription pills with non stop dookie ass backwood blunts in rotation to even come up with anything half decent.. there are some dope artists out there you just gotta go digging for em really..

if you're on shrooms then you'll prolly dig this shit.. heres some of the stuff i was talkin about earlier.. honestly to me shit like this hits alot harder than most of the new stuff that i hear nowadays especially mainstream.. idk the vibes just hit different.. the way the beat switches on some of these especially the last one like 2 minutes in is nastyyyy.. good luck on obtaining some cheeks my dude 🍻

i havent been into alot of these newer cats you see all over the tv and shit i try and venture out and look for new people who are different that this autotune singing rap bullshit.. freddie gibbs is a favorite tho ive been rockin with him for years.. basically everything in this thread is fire honestly haha heres some of the newer-ish shit i get down with.. this last dude i guess used to be part of brockhampton, that like teenage rap group with like 20 random ass kids in it or something.. idk i never bothered with them honestly cause they seemed like a gimmick of a new wave odd future but if this is the route dude is going im glad he had a falling out with them and is on his own path.. sometimes its for the better.. but other than this shit ive really just been listening to beat tapes and remixes from this like handful of producers like purple posse, always proper and other lil collectives.. even remixes of new songs that are ass sound waaaay better than the original just cause of the beat honestly.. if ya'll wanna check some of them out ill post some later on..

Went to my old job earlier today to talk to one of the higher up ladies about the rehiring process.. gonna be working in the other room till my old spot in the back opens up in the fall.. kind of excited to go back finally..

This is a "Jibarito" sandwich with arroz con gandules.. apparently this is only a chicago thing from what my buddy from the island says but basically its a steak sandwich with onions, mayo, lettuce, tomato and cheese but instead of bread it's between two pieces of fried plantains with a mashed garlic sauce on top.. Rice with pigeon peas and the ball on the left is a relleno de papa aka potato ball with ground beef in the middle.. and coco rico is a coconut flavored pop kind of like sprite.. Wepa 🇵🇷

https://chicagopolicepublic.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/ois-je182816-2300-s-sawyer/Two Minute Compilation Video Slowed Down With Captions.mp4 Not sure if this link works but this is basically all the info on the kid who got shot in Chicago.. long story short, kid got around some bad people, hung out with some 21 year old banger late at night, dude shot at some random car, gave the gun to the kid so he won't get caught up, kid ran when the police came, ditched the gun behind a fence, turned around empty handed with his hands up then got shot... Alot of shit going on here.. the whole body cam footage is kind of fucked cause you see the kid take his last breath and his eyes roll back while bleeding from his nose and mouth.. as a father that shit was hard to watch.. but yeah that's basically the gist of it and yeah the city is pretty pissed about it.. do I feel it could've gone another way? Yeah, possibly.. alot of things could've been done on all sides to prevent this but at the end of the day this kid is still dead so all that "could've would've should've" shit don't really matter now.. idk shits gotta change in these communities but in Chicago it's kinda hard to do so..

so, during this whole pandemic bullshit, more so these past couple of months, this stomach of mine has grown and its pissing me off.. dont really have access to a gym or weights right now but ive been thinking of trying this "one punch man challenge" while at the crib just to try and get rid of this fucking gut before it gets any bigger and i turn into jaba the hut.. idk if yall ever seen the anime but basically dude said he got super strong by doing 100 push ups, 100 sit ups, 100 squats and ran 10km a day for 3 years straight.. yeah im not running 10km everyday but i can at least attempt everything else while throwing in some extra exercises in between sets.. im thinking of starting out slowly and taking the weekends as my rest days but monday-friday starting out with maybe 25 or 50 of each daily and slowly working my way up to 100 a day that way i dont strain myself or fuck myself up while starting out.. been thinking about doing it for a while but just been lazy about it.. but the weather is getting warmer, my job is gonna be opening up soon, i cant be out there swingin this belly around like a fat ol booty knockin over glassware n shit.. this gut aint THAT big but i feel like it is.. just gotta figure out a food regimen to go along with the workout.. any thoughts or tips on dieting or other shit about picking up heavy stuff and putting it back down again..?

not gonna lie im super geeked for this..

cant get this one out of my head lately.. sooooooo dope..
