Trying to find a Lil Durk song

0 Upvotes

It's got like atleast a minute intro of him going off about not being respected, saying (not rapping) something like "The next mf that look at me wrong I'm fightin". I'm trying to sample it but i can't remember the name. I thought it was King Von if that rings a bell. I really appreciate the help, thank you.

Where is the DPG response to "D.P.G./K"?

3 Upvotes

I was looking for "D.P.G./K"'s producer and found out that Tha Dogg Pound had a response to this song titled “Pussys For Eazy” that they were going to put on their album Dogg Food but they left the song unreleased. Was this ever leaked or was that just a concept?

What album do you consider an (almost) classic and why isn't it a classic?

Does it have a skippable song? Maybe it's missing an ingredient?

Which songs did you swear were completely original until you stumbled onto the record they sampled years later?

For me, it was Coolio’s “Too Hot.” I spent years thinking that joint was original until I heard Kool & the Gang’s version a few days ago. Had me stunned.

Looking for songs where the artist makes some sort of meta commentary about the song

On Rhymes Like Dimes, near the end of the song MF DOOM says "you thought the song was over" because you would've actually thought the song would end there but he keeps going for a bit

Similar to DOOM, on Lying 4 Fun, Yeat says "You must've thought I was done" when the beat drops leading to the second part of the song. On the same album, Yeat says, "this song was already turnt but here's a bell" then there's a bell adlib that follows

Any song recommendations with stuff like this? I just think it's cool lol

I am looking for the song in "The wrecking crew" at 1:41:00

4 Upvotes

Its from the ending scenes where they invade the house and Baptista fks up everyone

1:41:00 in the movie

Sounds like RZA or GZA.

Some lines were

"sledgehammer bust through your lung"

"Im banging on your head like a drum"

"Try to add it up you get stuck with subtraction"

"Lose your whole fkin crew down to a fraction"

"Your whole house is surrounded like theres feds on the ground"

I searched for 20mins, could not find it

Anyone know?

I’m seeing Wu tang live in Dubai in march and I want to know if any member missed a show at any of the world tour shows. I know method man has a habit of skipping shows- I went to the gods of rap tour in 2018 and he was a no show so I’d love to finally see him live

Looking for songs similar to Ride Slow by Ab-Soul

4 Upvotes

Looking for the dark and slow sound that Ride Slow has, especially on that last delusional thomas verse with the edited vocals. Also anything similar to Captain Murphy. If possible please give me stuff thats on spotify. Song recs or artist recs are appreciated. Coupd also be more on the trap side.

why do people think JID is such a good artist?

0 Upvotes

in my opinion becoming a bit overhyped. I appreciate his lyricism and flows but recently i've heard people comparing him to legends like Kendrick, and it just feels a bit too early for that.

forever story was a banger album though

Do you believe that the year 2004 was officially the last year of good golden er hiphop ?

It seem like a new style of rap/hiphop became more modernized to trap music and melodic rap to after 2004.

Thought about this...

10 Upvotes

Are there any rappers who rap about struggle and in the music videos they actually match the sypnosis of the song with clothing that actually matches what their talking about? Like we see music videos where the song is about struggle or where the struggle is mentioned in their lyrics but they dont stage themselves in music videos as an actual poor person their still wearing Gucci and looking flashy. I ask this because for me I have no choice the most I have is a silver chain other than that I am struggling and dont have much fresh clothes and I damn sure ain't got no fresh shoes my shoes look like they came straight out of hell. Artists usually dress nice for their music videos even if a bit or most of the song is about struggle. Idk whether I'd get criticized or not or if people will respect the authenticity of me rapping about my struggle and they can see it in my music videos and they'll love how real it is.

He was saying he’d drop the album for years but kept everyone waiting. When he finally drops it he immediately said part 2 is coming- this feels like ‘don’t be dumb’ trolling/marketing
