I like "Goosebumps." Oddly I didn't even really notice it when Birds in the Trap first came out, but it's pretty good. Weird how songs can become hits, like, a year after the album was released.

The lyrics are dumb as hell, but it's a good song.

Cool. Do you like post-Carter Lil Wayne too?

2Chainz is like that guy at a party that says something funny and you're like "this guy is really funny! We should hang out more" but if you weren't at the party you'd have no interest in making an effort to hang out w/ him.

true, but those guys are what make parties fun!

and I dont give a shit about Lil Wayne either way. Nothing he ever put out hit me in my sweet spot

you didn't hear his collab album w/ 2Chainz? It's exactly the mindless funny party guy I mentioned. When the album's on you're like "well. This isn't bad. It's kind of ok." And when it's off you're like "I have no desire to put it on."

Collegrove was meh for the most part. I liked the video for BOunce but the song itself is just OK. Bomb Squad sirens rip-off in the beat.

Beautiful Thugga Girls (Young Thug) has some dope tracks man.

2 Chainz is a "VIP at the yacht club"

is it really his "singing" album?

Haahahahahahaha

I had no idea 2 Chainz had a new album/mixtape/whatever thing out today, but I listened to a few moments of it (Pretty Girls Like Trap Music) and it's not an immediately throwaway. It does sound like he's taking the lead from artists like DRAM and Yachty and others, with those corny boing-boing beats on "4 AM," but whatever. It's not going to be a classic. I doubt I'll listen to it more than once, but it's not terrible.

I did like 2 Chainz on Cruel Summer, and I enjoyed moments of BOATS II #metime. But all in all I think he's pretty much decided that leaving a meaningful artistic legacy behind is just not his thing. #notmetime.

Lovin' the Thugger and Keef albums.

Hmmmmmmm... Can't decide if I want to try out the new Thug. I've never had any success with any of the other Thugs. I keep thinking back to how utterly let down a I was by the Barter 6. I'm not sure I need to stay on or near the Thug train.

not really, just mo0re songs for the ladies instead of hard bangers

A lot of singing over acoustic guitar sounds, there's still a lot of rapping as well though. He's strongly influenced by Wyclef at this point.

I skip the sing song ones.

Snoop's verse on the Thugger album is one of the best verses of the year, hands down. That explains why Thug made Snoop's album cover his main picture on Instagram for a couple of weeks. That verse alone probably made him a huge fan.

New Jay Z studio album, 4:44 dropping June 30!

There's a clip floating around with that dude from Moonlight and House of Cards and Luke Cage boxing with Danny Glover for some reason. The beat in the clip sounds pretty dope though.

Of course it's tied up in some doomed-to-fail marketing scheme that will make it available to Tidal users (and, for some fucking reason, SPRINT mobile users :confused: ) first though. Fucking Jay Z, man.

Anyway, let's hope it's amazing and then he can retire.

I thought tidal was dead?
