Hey!
Big into Eminem and Kendrick, really haven't listened widely enough to other mainstream artists tbh. Any recommendations for someone very used to their thing? Thinking possibly about Drake but idk. Here are a couple of people I think everyone should try listening to, from da YT scene.
^ This is Dan Bull, who's a British guy (hopefully not off-putting to you guys) who raps about gaming, the two above are particularly awesome examples. Also has some really cool non-gaming shit, check out Bullmatic (tribute to iLLmatic). The video with the download is on his channel, a while back. It's pretty great.
^ This is George Watsky, who raps about all kinds of awesome shit, and was the guy in Pale Kid Raps Fast for anyone who remembers that. The two songs above are off two of his awesome albums, All You Can Do and Cardboard Castles. The second one is an example of the kind of spoken word poetry he also does. Tonnes of cool shit on his channel, and he's releasing a batch of new shit soon too.
I'd really recommend those two to anyone. Just too great.
Imo this is the best rap song to have been put out in the past year. Samples one of my favorite songs and lyrically I think this is the most powerful off of what is the best rap album of the 21st century. Kendrick the GOAT
Honestly, this one's so powerful that I skip it much more than I should in favour of lighter-hearted stuff. TPAB is the fucking shit.
