Mann I have to make my top 15 most underrated MCs list soon

TDE anit playing around this year .I like how most of the albums and artist don't drop unless it's quality.

Cali holdin shyt down, real talk...I definitely can't wait for this. Another reason it annoys me when cats hit the panick button talkin bout hip hop is on life support....I've been hearing str8 fire all week:whew:. Can't wait:ehh:

This is tooooo soon for him to drop an album. I honestly think he needs to go on a feature run and drop a mixtape first. He's tooo good to be on the back of the bus at TDE. Unless they have a great marketing strategy for him which I doubt, they don't need to do it.

The last album's release was botched by the label.

Agreed, The whole thing Top Dawg did with holding his release hostage was completely retarded and completely fukked up the hype for a lot of people, he fukked around so much with it that a lot of the people who were looking for it weren't even rushing to hear it when it dropped.

I think it's a lil too soon too considering they still have artists to drop before trying to build hype for this, but I don't think he needs to drop a mixtape, TDE have gone a long time without mixtapes and it works well for them, except when Top Drops the ball like I mentioned in the first part of my post.

Edit: snippet sounds better than most the tracks of his last album tho.

Feature run is a great call

Jay Rock is the best rapper in TDE, IMO.

I love 90059 and I hate how it was botched. From how the release was handled to how TDE "fans" (Kendrick fans) shytted on it because they expect everything from TDE to sound like GKMC and/or TPAB.

I don'tthink that you can blame TDE 100% on the album being slept on. You also gotta remember that the album came out at the same time that WATTBA unexpectedly dropped. We all know WATTBA came with enormous hype that ober shadowed everything.

Jay Rock is super solid as a rapper, everything is on point..never had a wack verse. The only thing he lacks compared to the rest of TDE is charisma outside of rapping, it's prob not even lacking, just that SBQ, Kendrick and AB have that in abundance.
