Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

June RHH looking like Pharcyde's Labcabincalifornia. And... damn, my 12-month sub ends in May and I really didn't want to re-sub right away...

Yeah, I expected to unsub again, but there's some surprisingly good picks so far.

 

[NewsFedora]

Wouldn’t Geto Boys and Tribe still fit all of these clues?

Yeah, silly me forgetting my definite articles in the English language...

Agreed, definitely looking a lot better than the last quarter. Maybe we're now starting to see the picks from that new RHH head of editorial guy they hired a while back.

More clues from today based on a Reddit post. Don't truly know the validity of this image.

UZI CONFIRMED

 

[duke86fan]

Lil Uzi Vert vs. the World peaked at number 37 on the US Billboard 200 and spent a total of 55 weeks on the chart.

LEGGO!!!! @duke86fan

You keep ninjaing me but I'm so down for LUV Vs the world

We have to thank them so much, I mean, luv Vs the world is an amazingly fun pop album (also easy for those who joined for chief Keef but want something less aggro), pharcyde is super respected (and infamously has one of the best dilla beats) and technically UGK still counts because it was 37 on the rap albums chart but that's the only one in unsure about

Pharcyde is a no brainer for me, I'll have to check the other 2 see if they hit me in any way! Never heard of Lil Uzi Vert and it's been a while since I listened to UGK so I've got something to do tonight!

Yeah I would be tempted for Pharcyde.

 

[duke86fan]

Never heard of Lil Uzi Vert

hes a big deal super neon glossy but also has a sensitive side and has a young thug like melody style




the BIG songs off the album (2 were legit hits, the other was a cult fav)

also he is known for this song that has been praised by every outlet as the best emo rap in a long time (not on Vs the world, on LUV is rage 2)

Much appreciated

Much appreciated

even if you dont really like the rest..

listen to XO tour life at the very least.. his biggest hit (excluding some occasional high placements when EA dropped) and its been so acclaimed that pitchfork literally named it the 10th best song of the last DECADE

 

[walkingdogs]

Yeah I would be tempted for Pharcyde.

I'll definitely sub for May to Get Pharcyde and Tribe.

 

[Mather]

Tribe is still speculative yes? Could just as easily be GB?

I mean I love Geto Boys but as an essential? Tribe fits wayyy better under that banner.

Agreed but... VMP does VMP things when it comes to this stuff. But yes, would definitely seem to be Tribe. I've been waiting so I'm all for it.

I already have a copy of The Low End Theory but it’s one that aI am willing to repurchase ad nausium as long as there is a chance it might be a definitive pressing.

Are all the records in "essential" really essential? It could be argued that Geto Boys are essential...and doing UGK and Geto Boys in the same month is BIG Houston rap royalty shit....so it's totally Tribe...
