listening to the new Big K.R.I.T. mixtape, does anyone make better beats than this today? If I had to guess I'd say no

I'm on a really big hip hop kick right now. Check out this hot track by Big Baby Ghandi.

vocally you should check this out if you like the exuberant delivery of Danny Brown the flow of Mr Muthafuckin' eXquire. Beatwise, check this out if you want to hear what it might sound like if Clams Casino and Gold Panda ever got together. Hopefully I've namedropped enough people by now that yall will check this shit out. It is really great.

Joell Ortiz is awesome.

new Earl Sweatshirt verse on "Oldie" is making me reconsider if I should/can keep ignoring Odd Future. Damn he is talented.

Why would you ignore them?

Batman's too cool for Odd Future

cuz other than Earl and Frank Ocean (occasionally Tyler, I suppose) their visuals are more interesting than their music.

odd future are mostly shit, great example of what hype can do for an act

completely agree about earl and frank, will

well, I wouldn't go as far as to say it was all hype that got them to where they were. Their best videos are legitimately aesthetically great.

Musically though, I'd only want to listen to a full album from Earl or Frank Ocean. The rest of them work in small doses, which is why "Radical" is an entertaining listen throughout (even if every standout track on that album has either Earl or Tyler on it).

I only really like Tyler and Earl. Most of the rest just seem like dead weight that will only serve to make any group effort convoluted.

I only really like Tyler, and then I only really like his voice. I think "Yonkers" is a legitimately great track even outside of the video but the only other Tyler song that gets close to that level for me is the title track from Bastard. He's someone I really want to like but just can't.

I looooooove Frank Ocean and only mildly care about the other guys
