    I’ve enjoyed the r&b releases more than rap this year.

    This thread gets made every 3-6 months

    Honestly this is one of the more interesting years for mainstream music in a while because there have been some interesting new directions from artists who could have played it safe, not to mention the prominence of the international market shaking things up.

    I am happy to see the international segment booming, im from Toronto so there is a lot of exposure and popularity of international artists/songs here, I met with my NY family friends a few weeks ago and its crazy how different the music tastes are despite the two cities being so close

    As far as rap goes YB the only rapper I care to listen to. When YSL Rico came I lost interest in rap period.

    R&b has been solid so far tho.

  • Jul 19, 2022

    2021 and 2022 are what people thought 2019/20 were. Awful years

  • Jul 19, 2022

    it’s been almost all the uninteresting rappers dropping this year

    where are our big heavy hitters?

    kendrick dropped but very mixed
    drake didn’t drop a rap album
    push was good but nothing mindblowing
    future does what he usually does but a bit better
    cole just slapped a bunch of dreamville throwaways for that mixtape

    Yaya Bey - Remember Your North Star
    Alex Isley - Marigold

    There's artist with albums dropping this year that I'm looking forward to like ASAP Rocky, Danny Brown, Meechy Darko, Joey Badass, Fly Boy Jack. A few others I'm hoping for like Phabo, Miguel, Maxo, Pink Siifu, and even though I highly doubt it Childish Gambino.

    Gotta say I been enjoying the music 2022 has offered so far

    Real for Quinton Brock. No clue he finally dropped album cause it was taking so long but I remember his singles were fire.

    Gonna check now
