write two f***ing verses for your s*** or make one that is stacked no more 5 minute tracks with pointless yap on your guest's part it's been forever since we had a real showstopping guest verse not coming from kendrick lamar or drake or cole anyways

and before you get at me with all types of rodeos and mbdtfs and all other feature heavy classics let me say this: when i say we don't need features i mean those where you can clearly hear a throwaway verse sent over email to extend a song's length because it got nothing else going for it. i feel like at this point its just dudes doing each other favors for getting features from earlier

this will be misunderstood to no end but i hope real ones know what i mean. i of course always appreciate a guest verse from love and not money

Well, I will say getting Carti as a feature is a joke

He will yap some s***, ruin the song, and ppl pretend it’s good

Every album has the same 3 artists on it. No such thing as an unexpected feature anymore

In the early 2010's the standard features were Rick Ross, Meek Mill, and Wiz Khalifa rap goes through cycles like this

I would love to meet the kind of person who goes straight to the (feat. Gunna) or (feat. Lil Durk) track on every new hip hop album so they can hear the latest bars about popping percs and buying b****es a birkin bag

this site doesn't like the uk much but Dave really raps his ass off on every feature but only does like two every year

You not a rap fan fr

im a fan of good rapping, guilty

it was worse in the 2000s

If you think only those 3 artists have put out good feature verses recently you not a real rap fan.

Yeah but they existed side-by-side with random cross-region/cross-subgenre collabs which feel much rarer nowadays. Maybe because regionalism and subgenre distinctions are increasingly insignificant and everything is smeared out into a lazy trap junkie post-Atlanta sludge

do you want me to put elucid in there or something lmao nobody checks for his guest appearances except me and five other weirdos

How'd you feel bout that new Ab-Soul and JID

RT

sidenote but it feels like literally every album features Trav, Gunna, or Future

That 21 song is ASS

If I see one more tracklist with Gunna, Travis, Lil Baby and 21 Savage on the features

That’s dope u mind putting me on to some of the features you’re talking abt

This literally just came out

Gibbs verse on vultures was really f***ing good imo, song had to be cut down severely tho

This literally just came out
