Dom Kennedy - Addicted to the Underground (Discussion Thread)

[dora_da_destroyer]

this project wasnt mixed and mastered good. as far as the songs tho, some songs straight some dom sound like he ain't feeling what he saying. Popularity smooth af tho.

i'm feeling popularity too, and like all dom, beats is fire as fukk. but dom been rapping like dudes pulling him straight outta bed and into the studio at 5am. no energy, swag or conviction behind any of his bars.


people talking that "he's always been laid back" shyt need to , there's a difference between being laid back on tracks and lacking life. that post @macadomusic just dropped is a clear example. the energy and vibe dom had on that verse compared to how he's sleepwalking through his raps since 2015 is what people are talking about.


some of yall alluded to health, and while i keep seeing that in dom threads, i've never seen that confirmed. i'm hoping he's cool and just doesn't care about the game anymore since becoming a family man

it kinda sound like bruh don't really care about rap that much based on some of his lyrics......bruh always been chill in his music, but he wasn't never this lazy wit the delivery....on songs like 5 Year Theory, he slid the fvvk out the beat..upbeat flow

Yeah, this shyt is aight. Only aight. Da 1st 2 tracks can be deceptive. Anybody talm'bout dawg been on da same shyt for years is smokin' drugs because dawg used to go way harder.

I was able to get one of the last "old dom" verses . we gonna officially release it soon

breh put this out right god damn now damn:

yeah, BDK is def the last legit 'strong dom' project

even if we dont get no more classic dom

he def gave us alot of solid, timless joints

he gave us so much fire its crazy i have a Dom playlist that is in constant rotation and hearing the falloff is scary

Idk what happened with the flow - if he lost his ear for beats i'd be really worried

 

[Alfred0Santana]

This shyt hard.

 

[blizzard man]

@GollyImGully i dont think he lost his ear for beats, the beats on his projects are still dope, its just like he lost a lil energy rapping or something

 

[areohbee824]

Will give another listen. Wasn't bad, but nothing really stood out for me

 

[reserved_one]

Man i been trying to avoid listening to this because I Dont want to be let down once again by Dom


Seems like the Reviews in here are mixed. The Half A Mill Eps was decent but this is literally the last song he put out I thought was great imo.
