As a NYer who grew up in the Dipset era, I feel obligated to go to this.

Timeless Truth - Rock-it Science.  Probably the pinnacle of the current Conservative Rap Coalition right here.  This queens duo released their first album about a  month ago and I'm really regretting that it wasn't released two weeks later so I could bang the drum for this thing to be on best of lists at the end of 2013.  Check out the production choices on this.  It's kind of nuts.  I love the way the samples jump around on "All Others Pay Cash."

Since I'm from DC i tend to keep an eye on DC Maryland and Virginia hip hop but the latest Shy Glizzy slipped past my radar.  Why are rappers releasing stuff around the holidays?  I ain't got time for it!  This is probably one of the few rap mix tapes I'd actually pay money for.  check out "Tru Story" but skip "Deal With Ya."  ugh.  horrible song.

Gotta respect J-Love for repping the "white guys who can say nicca" movement for two decades

How is Roc Marci live? I've seen some videos and they were mixed. His voice doesn't seem to translate well, as the article mentions.

he's good.  has great charisma but his voice doesn't translate at all

he does this strange sort of relaxed yet really energetic set.  constantly moving, but in a very controlled silky way

P has pretty much been done since the jail stint; you could argue he was done before jail too. I'm not sure he has released a good song or even good verse since getting out

That's a vintage Alchemist beat too, what a shame it was wasted. That Roy Ayers song has been sampled a million times but he chopped it up pretty awesome

I like Eschaton's completely rude and straight to the point offensive fuckery of posts, reminds me of the EB of yore.
For now on we should call him Brown Master Shake

definitely right about Banks tho, although I do like some of her songs. You can't use that word if your fanbase is full of gay dudes and gay-friendly women. She isn't Eminem or Chris Brown, who have said that stuff and gotten away with it because their fanbases don't care.

Hipsters? Not that I've heard of. He gets some hate amongst some black people who point out he used to used the n-word quite a lot in his music. And there are folks who dismiss him automatically for sounding like Ghostface...but overall he seems to be getting a good reaction from a variety of groups. I think he's dope, although I do wish he'd switch up his flow more.

Yeah I haven't heard anything to that regard either.

but it's super easy for people who don't like hip hop to like Action Bronson.  He's like a more sanitized outsized personality with a familiar flow.

i'm noticing this is a familiar thing in Queens.  At least AB has half black kids.

the problem with the Queens contingency is that they're all pulling from the same well and feature on each others tracks, so it's really had for rappers to stand out from one another as the begin to influence each other more and more through some sort of artistic socialization.  timeless truth stands out because it's a duo which works well with one another and has chosen some very good beats.  they do a good rap live show which is damn near unheard of.

Oh. That. I had forgotten about they. Apparently that guy wasn't a cheeseburger per AB but AB called him one on Instagram because he looked feminine which is problematic of course but I wouldn't call it a hate crime or anything.

In GOOD rap news just saw Baltimore's 83cutlass and he was amazing. Short set but full of intense power going in hard on every track regardless of the lacksidasical mood in which they were recorded.

With guest appearances from Ghostface, Action Bronson, Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire, Roc Marciano, Vinnie Paz, Cappadonna & additional beats from DJ Premier & Oh No, you can expect nothing less then top notch production and rewind worthy lyricism from CZARFACE. "We are CZARFACE because they know our faces and they know us for being dope rhyme suppliers, like Tony Montana we are known for our balls and our word; lyrically we will conquer the world and everything in it” states Deck. Esoteric explains further, “CZARFACE is a vigilante, anti-hero character who serves as the face of the project, and his focus is on annihilating the media darlings that the mainstream caters to.”

anyway that Curly Castro show was a lot of fun.  billy woods is working with blockhead and previewed two songs from that collab and I was introduced to Cult Favorite http://cultfavorite.bandcamp.com/ who have a very nice and dark sound without being that space ghost purp chamber goth raps.

Oakland rapper 'Kenny Clutch' killed in Las Vegas Strip shooting

Quote
One of the victims in a spectacular predawn shooting and crash on the Las Vegas Strip has been identified as Kenneth Cherry Jr., an aspiring rapper known as Kenny Clutch.

His attorney, Vicki Greco, said his death was shocking.

"Out of everyone I know in the rapping industry, there is no way I would have ever, ever expected to find that he was shot on the Las Vegas Strip in such an aggressive manner," Greco said.

PHOTOS: Shots fired on the Las Vegas strip

"He didn't have a [criminal] record or a history. He was just a good kid trying to make it and be a good father." Cherry had two children, she said.

According to his Facebook page, Cherry is from Oakland and lived in Las Vegas.

He died early Thursday morning when bullets fired from a black Range Rover peppered his Maserati, authorities said.

They said Cherry and the occupants of the Range Rover had left the Aria resort hotel and were heading north on Las Vegas Boulevard at 4:20 a.m., an hour when the casino marquees shine brightly but the gambling thoroughfare is largely empty. At Harmon Avenue, occupants inside the Range Rover opened fire on the Maserati, police said.

Interactive map: Shooting in Las Vegas

The silver-gray sports car, which was struck several times, sped into the intersection at Flamingo Road, ramming a Yellow cab, officials said. The taxi exploded, killing the driver and a passenger. Four other vehicles in the intersection were also involved in the crash and explosion, but police offered no details.

Cherry died later at a hospital.

Police had more questions than answers.

"It began with a dispute at a nearby hotel and spilled onto the streets," said Capt. Chris Jones of the Las Vegas Police Robbery and Homicide Division.

Cherry's aunt, Pat Sims of Oakland, told the Oakland Tribune that her nephew was a kind soul.

"I can tell you this ... the world has lost a good man," Sims said. "I'm not saying he didn't have his faults, but he was very kind, especially to older people. Whatever happened in Vegas, I don't know about, but he was a very kind soul."

The newspaper reported that Cherry had several arrests in Oakland and Berkeley, many for gun charges. He was convicted on a gun charge in 2007, stemming from an arrest in Berkeley, sources told the Tribune, although details on that conviction weren't immediately available.

In 1996, rapper Tupac Shakur was shot and killed two blocks from Thursday's accident scene, at the intersection of Flamingo Boulevard and Koval Lane, as he rode in a car driven by Death Row Records Chairman Marion "Suge" Knight.
