Rick James-Urban Rapsody

This album really fascinates the s*** outta me lol. Rick James first album post-prison,second half of it is garbage imo but some of the songs on here just have a nice “grown and sexy”type vibe you really don’t get much these days. This s*** does not re-invent any kind of R&B wheel whatsoever but it’s a cool listen nonetheless.

Idk why this album isn’t on a streaming,was it released independently,did certain people not get paid during the making of process of this album thus making it risky to post on streaming? Idk but it’s never been on a streaming service whatsoever.

De La Soul’s first few albums

Annoying as f***

Aaliyah’s too

Dr. Dre - Detox

slime season 1 & 2 (which should be a crime)

Endless

i’m sure various rock bands have held out though

Free Crack by Lil Bibby which I still listen to often tbh

lots of early soundcloud era stuff, specifically lots of raider klan stuff

These are the super obvious examples,their suppose to be working on getting Aaliyah’s discography on streaming tho

yeah a lot of that s*** is never making it to streaming due to sample usage

purrp used a lot of chopped aaliyah samples, however, intoxxxicated is on spotify/deezer/tidal and it has lots of aaliyah samples but its never been taken down

There are a lot actually

There was probably so many independent labels with rock bands on them that doesn’t exist anymore that streaming services are missing man. So much lost music

need more of this on streaming

This is random but Memo 600 And King Von exposing me got taken down bc of the sample or something and its the original song but the FBG Duck remix is still up and has 7 million streams

My original song gets taken down but a remix dissing me stays up with millions of streams Id be mad af

Yeah this why i got spotify plus youtube music & my few downloaded stuff.

Cant think of any off top but the last time i was major digging i found a few not on apple or spotify, but "everything" is on youtube.

Mostly foreign stuff tho i noticed. Like when i was digging I was going through orchestral itallian stuff, japanese surf pop along with some old blues for the most part.

Oh and a good amount of my Bandcamp stuff arent on streaming either

The OG song I guess was looked at as an opportunity to make money off the sample or some s***,idk lol. This licensing s*** is just crazy,the remix could’ve potentially got looked over

Yeah It’ll probably get taken down at one point but it’s just funny how that works

Duck’s version has more views than the original too and hes dissing tf outta them. Id be hot

Aaliyah uncle needs a metal baseball bat put up to his legs

Rap beef lame anyway unless you can really rap and make it truly entertaining and most of these dudes ain’t got it like that. Sounds like bro took a risk and basically won the beef on wax tho lol

ATM Jam is essentially wiped from everywhere, you can find the Kaytranada remix pretty easily on soundcloud but you can only really listen to the og via the re-uploaded music video, don't even think the official audio of the og was re-uploaded on soundcloud just audio of the video or just censored snippets of it

aaliyah

Imagine that man dying and all those masters get locked away forever I hope someone’s putting pressure on him

Bro yes

I used to love that song when it first came out
