That whole Beast coast / New New York wave was huge early 2010s but by the end of the decade that s*** just died out they just retained their core fanbases.

highly highly underrated

so glad someone brought this album up

Still one of my personal favorite times for rap.

You a real 1 Dave you my favorite Dave after the creator of Wendy’s

They better than most rappers now

NWTS after that national anthem performance

only thing ive ever heard from him. I liked it but not enough to ever check him out again

this too

this is a take.. and not a great one at all lol

Wale’s come up in 2008-2009. He was in the original Big 3 with Cudi and Drake at that time.

Brockhampton in 2017. After the Ameer s***, niggas wrote them off which moreso has to do with people hating their fanbase tbh

Vic Mensa before U Mad

Meeks A1 Everything?

Seans Control?

Rockys 1Train?

Qs Collard Greens?

Pusha Ts Nosetalgia?

50 Cents We Up?

Waynes Buy the World?

Flying Lotus' Never Cathc Me?

Fredos Jealous?

Cudis Solo Dolo 2?

E40s Catch a Fade?

SZAs Babylon?

Jhene Aikos Stay Ready?

YGs Really Be?

YG Hooties Two Presidents?

Rich Gangs 100 Flavors?

All 2012 to 2015 and this just off top of my head lol. Sure i guess if all you remember is the one imagine dragons song. He has one of the biggest featured lists of any artist from OD to TPAB and most of them happened inbetween gkmc and tpab when he was constantly on tour by himself and with kanye.

From the most obscured niggas to the most mainstream from rap to rnb to pop to jazz (even before tpab with terrace, robert glasper, thundercat, flying lo etc.) to soundtracks.

Just proved one of my 4 points in op. Thank u.

Ge was literally on some Lil Wayne s*** doing everything by everyone everywhere lol.

Real 1 alert

It, carti & durk are the main reasons i made the thread too

FAXX

SoundCloud Carti was on another level

It is

He just talking

Had the best diss track of 2024

Dorks ain’t gonna accept it tho

Lol its one of the biggest of the decade and one of the most organic and its still getting spins when it got rereleased

Your personal opinion doesnt affect what the overall thought is

And rocky is literally one of the very few artists along with travis and future that the "kids of today: still mention

Half his albums were disappointing but that doesnt negate his massive mixtape, perhaps the biggest of the 2010s + being an icon

first two cam albums are amazing. i no cap got SDE over Purple Haze and CHWM

Wether if he did or didnt doesnt matter

What the impact and status it did does

And those that were around the time paying attention know

And i was a raider klan + mob fan s/o yung simmie

Read few more pages itt and aight

Niggas just be talkin

I used to feel that way about SDE years ago

It good but over time Purple Haze and Follow Me Home still his top 2 at the end of it all, for me

We as a society act like the frat rap movement between like 2010-2012 never happened and literally nobody would admit they ever listened to that s***. We also have memory holed the mash up era which went hand in hand and was equally bad

theyre def his best albums but i just love SDE so much. Do It Again is one of his best songs ever

It is really good

Follow Me Home is my overall fav he just so well rounded whuke being cohesive on that one

Travis Porter

Mixtape era Tyga

Kid Ink

BoB

Roscoe Dash

Flo Rida
