I do find Danny Brown's voice irritating, good for a guest verse but not for a full album. I'm also probably the only person on here who doesn't really like Kendrick Lamar's album all that much either.
However just listened to the Adrian Young/Ghostface collab, sounding pretty good, no big surprises from Young or Ghost.

I was a little bit underwhelmed by that Ghost thing, but I'll wait until the album drops rather than pass judgement too hastily. I do think that the whole throwback r&b thing seems to have settled into something of a rut, though.
Issues of personal taste aside, I think your criticism of Danny Brown's voice might make more sense if he actually used that voice for a full album, which thus far he hasn't done.
Wasn't sure whether to post these guys in this thread or the one about the new rap that sounds like old thread but either way, the Underachievers tape is is surprising me with how much I like it.
I'm loving that Idigoism mixtape they just dropped.... gets better with each listen
The beat is nice, their flow is good, some cute lines here and there...just doesn't grab me. I agree, the video helps a lot. Not sure it would stand out in a tape among other tracks.
Everything's better with Future. Can definitely get behind Trae and Mike Will collaborating as well.
Speaking of Future, the roll doesn't seem to be slowing down:
Putting aside the fact I could do with a year off from $ sign rappers the Vinny Cha$e beat is a lot of fun though agree that it's not going to stay in the mind too long.
Btw, what the hell has got Master P on such a roll at the moment? Not complaining but it's kind of come from nowhere. Also, FAt Trel's work with him is arguably more consistent than his solo stuff.

Speaking of dollar-sign rappers, Curren$y's recent stuff has been quietly working its hooks into me. Absolutely love the feel of this.
Ah, the days when something as simple as a Verocai loop over the PoZ drums would have people losing their minds up in here.

Ha! Yeah I'm still enjoying Curren$y's output a lot and did think his recent couple of tapes have upped the standard - still definitely at the mellow end of the spectrum but seems to be a bit more focused. Helps that he's working with people like Harry Fraud as well.
His new tape New Jet City has some great stuff on it.

Sorry, Charlie. But overwhelming consensus down here in Trae territory is that the Future parts of that song suck tremendously. We just like the beat and the verses. No lie.
Nah I actually agree with you on this one though I'd probably settle for underwhelming. I'm a big fan of Future, especially the work he does with Mike Will, but this sounds like he recorded it while driving between two other appointments. Misses the mark and sounds lazy and under developed. Nice to hear something decent by Trae again though, it's been a fair while.

All variations of Brown's voice annoy me after 5 minutes of continued listening so the occasional guest verse is fine for me.

at 3:30 when the guy in back pops up is the best.

I was reading about this kid a little earlier today, by some odd coincidence. This is pretty good.
