One great song after another!!!
Ryan Upchurch is a Rap Country artist with amazing talent!
He can literally perform every genre. While typically known for his Rap Country hits, he decided to branch out and explore the Grunge/Rock genre and has turned the genre on it's ear.

This album dropped 4/20/2018 and, in less than an hour, was sitting pretty at #3 on the US iTunes Rock charts!
Within 3 days, it was sitting in the Top 10 iTunes Rock charts in Australia and Canada.
As of last week, it was Trending in iTunes at #3, whilst Cardi B sat at #7.
Everyone needs to check this guy out!

Fever Boy by Femme

(0 Ratings)

Track

"Femme’s just really cool. She has pink hair and makes really clever, intelligent pop music. I’m taking her on tour with me. In this song, which has ’60s element, she strings together incredible words in a talk-rap style. It makes me feel really cool, and I guess that’s why I like it"

From A Ghost Story’s lyrical exploration of grief to newcomer Danielle Macdonald’s virtuoso rap performances in Patti Cake$, the best indie movies of the summer of 2017 were, as always, an antidote to superhero fatigue and a trove of wonders to which we'll no doubt be returning.

Here are some of Time's favourite indie movies:

For every Wonder Woman, and Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 that raked in hundreds of millions at the box office this summer, there were half a dozen indies that dazzled audiences. Here are Time's list

"That was my favourite group in the world, man. That was gangsta rap back then. There was this hard b-boy shit, hard beats, more aggressive lyrics, but there wasn’t too much cursing, no drug slangin’, they might say they smoke weed once or have a forty, but it wasn’t over the top like now."

Pretty Girls Like Trap Music by 2 Chainz
2017 | Comedy, Pop, Techno
His fourth studio album, Pretty Girls Like Trap Music, isn’t just a testament to endurance, it’s one of the year’s best rap albums and a blueprint for graceful aging in an industry that prizes youthful excitement and innovation.

Rolling Stone's 365th greatest album of all time
Excellent album by the angry rap-rockers. I had forgotten how good this album is, as I am so over Killing in the Name, but from the off this album is a banger. Superb bass, mostly excellent guitar sound and Zach's voice is totally in-keeping with the style.

Rolling Stone's 393rd greatest album of all time
Superb rap and modern "world music" album, featuring the awesome Paper Planes (sampling the Clash's Straight to Hell) and another standout track 20 Dollar, which takes excerpts from Pixies' Where Is My Mind?
Including a range of Indian and African inspirations and MIA's phenomenal vocals, this is a really interesting album.

Gross
This is bad, not in usual Hip Hop terms as in "I just spat a bad ass rhyme", no, this is bad as in wack.

Lil Pump has rose to meteoritic fame and wealth and the reason why? His stuff speaks to kids of that age where swearing and talking about drugs upsets mummy and daddy.

This is mumble rap. I'm not hating on mumble rap, Some artists are artists. Pump however shouts a line, then says Ouu and then repeats the formula the entire album Ouu.

So we've established he can't rap, lyrically it's just offensive. Now I have a lot of horribly misogynistic hip hop but somehow this feels worse because there is no artistic element. Lil Pump shouts things like "I f##ked your daughter" Ouu, yeah, that is the base level, women are nothing but botches to abide and drugs are new and clever according to Pump. It really is playground level.

What about the beats? Ok anyone knows my output knows I sometimes play with distortion but Pump takes it up so it distorts and the base blows and I bet he giggles like a toddler and goes "that's great Ouu".

Utterly terrible
  
Everybody Looking by Gucci Mane
Everybody Looking by Gucci Mane
2016 | Rhythm And Blues
This album is not so much his ninth studio album as much as it is his declaration of independence from the system that has tied him down since the beginning of his career. Gucci sounds more comfortable, confident and icier
