Super Underrated.. Kinda was outshined by Kendrick and Schoolboy Q


I was gonna say, this is a great shot to get out of their shadows. Ab-Soul and K dot get the lyricism credit. Schoolboy has earned a nice push with a really strong album last year (best he's dropped) and Jay Rock has kinda become the guy with great features and verses on the posse cuts. He shouldn't be an after thought, that whole squad is monsters.

Wish Jhene Aiko accepted her invite to TDE, love her voice and style. SZA and Zay make that squad untouchable. It's sad I live in New York and have a bunch of TDE gear I wear to the gym and people consistently ask me what TDE is. Really hoping they takeover soon. I think Q, Soulo, and Rock are all releasing albums the same season for the black hippy takeover.

Yep. Money Trees pt 2 & Gumbo are two really dope songs. He's the veteran in TDE... everyone was once his hypeman or came through under him.

I think Jay Rock will release his album first, then Soul, and then Q will finally release his second album.... then SZA & Isaiah Rashad.

Money Trees 2 fire emoji.

My **** Just Made Bail had me a fan of Bas early.


First time I heard of TDE was All My Life by Jay Rock and then Charles Hamilton rapping with K. Dot and Serious Jones with Jay Rock in the background.

You want a Ill NY cat, but is just mad lazy with his career? Large Amounts. He been with Jada for years, yet rarely puts out music. I tell everyone he is really nasty if you listen to the songs he does have out. Nobody can listen to these songs and tell me not ill on the mic.

Once he grew the dreads, he started to suck. Maybe once he cuts them, he will be good.

That should apply to most of the rappers out right now (outside Kendrick, Lupe, and cole)

Burn after Rolling & Kush & Orange Juice will always be his best projects.

Dreads don't matter. lol. Like you said, Kdot - Lupe - Cole - Joey Badass.

Ironically Wiz's biggest commercial hit was recent with that horrible song "see you again". He still drops some decent joints from time to time though.

"King" Los got the album of the month. That God, Money, War track with the Toro Y Moi sample is too fresh then switches up at the end. Got with R. Kelly fly too.

The conspiracy theory ish gets a little extreme with him but I think Ab-Soul is the most dangerous with the pen too. Q is my favorite member though ever since Habits dropped; Hands on the Wheel is one of my all time favorite party tracks and Man of the Year should be used in tutorials about how to ride a beat proper.
