@APD_Research@NewestMagazine But then the video says as far as lyrics go like Jay Rock or Kendrick are the only artists out, like Drake Cole Earl sweatshirt and a dozen others are just as skilled and refined.
@APD_Research@NewestMagazine TDE is a label, not a collective. As far as collectives go, OVO and Dreamville are larger and more prominent simply for the fact they still have their flagship artist and TDE has SZA as its biggest star which isn’t as big. Even with Kendrick it’s not.
@TMundy_15@KingWow What do separate releases have to do with anything? The songs were great, the best selection was great and he had some of the best lyrical performances he had in years. It should win best rap album but he’s not submitting. We turn to active nominees, and I think Don should get it
@obiwanishim@LowKeyUHTN You think that’s the only reason someone would not rate that album highly?
You can’t kill God with Bullets by Conway the Machine was my favorite album of 2025.
@TMundy_15@KingWow Iceman sucks? It’s the best album this year by any metric except he won’t be submitting. But it’s from the old guard who I don’t think needs more validation, si I used it for context. Are you okay?
@TMundy_15@KingWow To me lovesick is his best, but his scale and polish have gone up and his hit making has. I’m not the only listener, and he’s been able to stick 2 singles for a whole year. We forget Iceman has only been out 4 months because it caught up, but Octane has been up this whole year.
