The rap that's coming out of Detroit right now... special

This new Mike Shabb LP has been out for less than 24 hours… And I’m already ready to say it’s his best yet I’m so damn impressed, beats are so creative and his raps keep getting better And that final track of this album really hit hard 🙏🏽

This new Apollo Brown album is beautiful Love the chops, and serene sample work One of my favourite producers when it comes to instrumental albums He really knows how to tell a story and create an atmosphere that feels so lived in

I’m hella impressed with this new record from pty The sound is a beautifully chaotic jambalaya of textures that are so interesting At times it’s discordant noises, acid jazz With some dope features from quality voices from the underground rn, highly recommend 👍🏽

“MF, the holder of a boulder… money folder” The way DOOM ends his final verse on Money Folder is why he’s a 🐐 Effortless mic presence, such a commanding voice Every time he rapped, your ears immediately locked in

“BLACK’!ANTIQUE is like “y’all got me f’d up” @PinkSiifu describes the core ethos of his bold new album In Ep. 188 of The Rap Music Plug Podcast, deep-diving into BLACK’!ANTIQUE #LincolnBio for the full interview 🎙️

Love the openness in Chuck’s instrumentals on Token of Appreciation Atmospheric and pretty beats that create a ton of space for Boldy’s best raps in a long time Chuck’s beats accentuated the remarkable detail Boldy consistently weaves into his rhymes Great project 👍🏽

“If you a Pink Siifu fan… you just know you in for a ride” @PinkSiifu speaks to the open-minded mindset his fans approach his music with In Ep. 188 of The Rap Music Plug Podcast, deep-diving into BLACK’!ANTIQUE #LincolnBio for the full interview 🎙️

This Ray x Milk is infinitely listenable The perfect length to immediately wanna run it back Every song has such killer bars, infectious swings and intricacies in the beats Such a fantastic record, one of the year’s best so far 💯💯

Good lord, Bandana is such a classic And this track right here??!!! The second half once the beat switch comes in… The instrumental is unbelievably nasty and Freddie leaves earth What a perfect song 😮‍💨😮‍💨

“I sequenced this s*** like a movie” Pink Siifu illustrates the arc of his new LP & the ride he took listeners on to understand the ‘antique’ experience at the end In Ep. 188 of The Rap Music Plug Podcast, deep-diving into BLACK’!ANTIQUE #LincolnBio for the full interview 🎙️

Skyzoo bumped Dream Deferred music last night… been a fan ever since this record His live raps were CDQ, great show 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Bumping some DOOM this morning, and I can’t help but be annoyed by one of my pet peeves I *hate* alternate artwork (in most cases)… I get weirdly attached to the OG ones, especially when they’re as classic as DOOM’s!!

“Restriction just breeds innovation” Ghais Guevara explains how working with minimal samples on Goyard Ibn Said Pushed him to experiment more, providing him with a mission statement that was inspiring Full interview in Ep. 187 of The Rap Music Plug Podcast #LincolnBio 🎙️

I’m a big fan of this album 🙌🏽 Bad Man created this consistently slippery soundscape that is rich and intricate Z opens himself up in a way I haven’t heard him do so strongly before As we see him open up about his mental state with nice imagery and engaging performances

I do not care about any 🥩 nonsense anymore… my thoughts are entirely unrelated to that Listening to this album reminded me that the Drake-OVO “Toronto sound” was a tragedy for 2010s R&B This is the driest, most lifeless music imaginable

Ghais speaks on his mindset creating his ambitious new record, Goyard Ibn Said Illustrating his goal to speak on hip-hop as a whole, covering the tragedy and the triumph Full interview in Ep. 187 of The Rap Music Plug Podcast #LincolnBio 🎙️

Fat Ray and Black Milk hit an absolute home run with FFTG Their chemistry is effortless, packed so much in 27 mins Also shoutout to Joonbug, the artist who made this cover… I knew I recognized the style from past Black Milk records, and sure enough it’s the same person 💪🏽

“There’s no where in my music, where it was agreed upon that I was your Selassie” Ghais Guevara shares his perspective on the odd way in which listeners treat politically-minded rappers Full interview in Ep. 187 of The Rap Music Plug Podcast #LincolnBio 🎙️

Another great performance from Nourished by Time last night We also got to hear a sneak peek of a new track off The Passionate Ones that sounded mad intriguing 👀

I let go of Ye in 2022, so idc to comment on him anymore But one thing I wanna add to the #discourse about this rich baby is He’s not “speaking truth” about Z*onism or making some nuanced anti-Isr*el argument He just HATES ALL Jewish ppl If you see truth in that, look inward!

Revisiting this @bbymutha.bsky.social album after her killer appearance on the new Siifu album So much energy on her last album, such a good time 🔥

Getting prepared for this new Fat Ray and Black Milk album with this heater of an album 🔥🔥

Nourished by Time is the greatest… blessed to see him for a third time live next week 🙌🏽

I finished that show One Day on Netflix So touching & emotionally-rich Creative format, and A1 acting from Leo Woodall & Ambika Mod But in reading reviews, many complained Dex wouldn’t “go” for Ambika’s character cus she’s not hot enough huh??? Racists live a sad existence…

Another FearDorian project that has significantly impressed me Consistently creative production and engaging flows that make this a very fun listen

This Benjamin Booker initially impressed with its soulful vocals and beautifully instrumentation from Kenny But man, after many listens… the feeling of longing is getting to me heavily 😢 The way his voice cracks when he says “I want more than a dream” to end this breaks me
