I'm a known listener of rap and hip-hop, everyone who knows me knows that.
Yet my musical library is quite a concept as when I'm listening to music, I tend to listen to different albums of different genres or different songs of different genres or styles.
Well yesterday, I did something entirely different, just off the rip, on a whim.
I listened to six hours of music and five hours of rap.
Rap music isn't a genre for everyone.
Most people think of it as violent and loud, or the words being too fast to hear and some even go as far as saying that they're talking rubbish (because they can't hear or comprehend the words.)
Thus, because the songs I'm about to list are tunes I want everyone to actually understand. I'll urge you to watch this video about rap.
It talks about the hidden meanings in my favorite album and favorite song from Kendrick Lamar.
Sadly, these songs I'm about to show aren't from Kendrick Lamar, I think you all have had enough of that.
Regardless, we see some new songs but traces of the old artists.
Earthgang is part of J. Cole's agency, Dreamville and that kind of environment is one where different sounds, flows and ideas collude to bring up musical masterpieces.
In this song, Earthgang talks about the lies about the celebrities gimmick, lies about relationships and lies about life.
It was unexpected for me to hear and tune is one you wouldn't easily forget.
Now this song is one from two talented writers who are on the same mind place and they're just having fun.
Jid and Smino talk about their past relationships and their struggles now looking small as they're big fishes in the rap industry.
The Baguetti being a French bread and a type of diamond was used in the song.
This song is something you can call a coming of age tune.
I remember Cordae back when he was carried by Eminem and Jack Harlow.
Now here he is saying everything he's gotten and all the knowledge he's gotten.
It's different from the empty bluffs and sayings in "Parables", this one is with experience.
The addition of Lil Wayne was just a cherry on the top❤️✨
That's my 3 rap songs chosen, listen and then listen against and then you'd understand what is so beautiful about them.
I wonder which song y'all like the best🔥
