Plan B back from the dead. I thought he had given up on hip-hop yet he comes out with this, which is absolute fire. Hope this is the first of many more.

That's pretty good tbh

AJ Tracey becoming a bit of a movement in himself, AJ, Dave and J Hus coming up decent!

(MoStck should have been killed for someone like MIST on this beat, he's too low skilled for such a class riddim)

Edit: talk of the devil... same sample and both released 5 days ago, too! He's completely wrong for the beat, it is more party flex so I think AJ and Stormzy would have smashed it together.

Man, I still love Will Smith on the mic (yes I loved Big Willie Style.. and Lost and Found was a good album!)

If Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff released an album tomorrow, it would be getting played without a hesitation.

Joyner Lucas is great, check out Logic. Although this is mostly a Wu tune.

I happily pay for Spotify as I love their algorithms.

If you like 80s hip hop, this is one it made for me based on my recent listening.

Saw him at a festival, was extremely surprised when he walked out as I was expecting this guy haha!

That sounds bloody fantastic on my current setup.

I just got some new speakers andcan amp. Sounds great.

Been listening to the new and last Logic album over the past couple of days. Sad he’s retiring but what an album, probably the best of the year for me.

I’ll pick a few of my favourites but to be honest their isn’t one I don’t like.

Seems I missed this album but Loaded Lux released an album last year that I've been listening to today, enjoying it.

Been meaning to post some of his stuff for a while. I’m not sure if their is anybody else doing what he’s doing and certainly not at the level he is. Possibly the best freestyle rapper I have ever seen the guys insanely talented.

Not traditional hip-hop, but don't think there is a closer major genre, but quite like a lot of the stuff Skeler has been doing:

NVP · 5 Oct 2020 at 07:59

Thanks for that.

@Doobedoo - Yeah I quite like Harry Mack. Does it well off of the top.

He does it better off the top than most do it with a pen. The more I watch the more he amazes me, he’s getting better and better too. Great energy too.
