isaiah rashad feat too
might make a thread for him later

Yeeeeah looking forward to this. Is there a tracklist out?

i dont think so but i just found out about this

Gotcha

And yeah it’s def exec produced by Mach. So it should be quality

This single is some generic trash imo. Although I didn't mind his feature on TLT.

But this single definitely makes me annoyed Mach is wasting his time with all this and Droog as opposed to just putting out his own music.

Yeah, shockingly generic beat. Maybe this is just a loosey?

Oh wow, just listened to the track... Mach is really the most generous individual for collabing w so many acts beneath him

I get that he’s using his pull and experience to help dudes out, but it’s unfortunate that we get s*** like this instead of actual Mach albums, which is literally what people want the most.

You already know

Yall saw the al P interview with Navy Blue? Absolutely incredible

Fire

More Quelle and Alchemist. Off the Mello compilation dropping Friday

Yeah, great interview. A cross between Orpheus v the Sirens and Song of Solomon is a wild way to frame Song of Sage

MMG really grew into a force to be reckoned with, very cool to watch over the last decade

Haram writeup in p4k was very mid, weak stuff

Yeah I feel like they straight up said “we’re not f***ing cannibal ox, stop saying that” years ago

At this point its established that these guys are their own deal, they’re saying some of the realest s*** you can point to in rap, so if your review doesn’t contend with that it’s useless to me

I don’t need to read some weird inapplicable s*** like “they wield irony but aren’t poisoned by it”, first of all what rapper today doesn’t utilize irony and two wtf does that even mean they’re not political meme twitter s***heads they’re extremely low key poets, how would “irony poisoning” even relate to them - waste of words 🤢

Yeah, I mean a lot of rap criticism today is redundant af. It's funny how this NPR piece literally points out tired modifiers

In recent years, likely due to the social climate, there's been a rush to call Armand Hammer's music apocalyptic or dystopian. ("I get why people say that, but it's played out," ELUCID once said.)

but also just shamelessly makes this same old ass comparison

But where acts like the Griselda collective recall the morose street tales of Wu-Tang Clan and Mobb Deep, Armand Hammer evokes groups like Cannibal Ox and Company Flow, crews whose music scanned as avant-garde.

But tbf I don't think any one or two page "review" could ever fully capture the stakes of their albums. As woods has said, more or less, "they need something to write"
