Below is a list of songs I’ve either found recently or just wanna share with you!
ZEP - NOBODY
I believe he hails from the Netherlands? An awesome artist bringing a very unique and open approach to an early 2000’s sound that we’ve definitely lost in recent times.

Boko Yout - Demolition Man
I’m not entirely sure what genre this is. The lead singer calls it Afro Grunge but I can tell you this band is raw, gritty and risky! Lyrically I feel it tells the tale of one man’s journey from clueless child to an ambitious but slightly jaded artist. Sonically it reminds me of the FIFA 2006 soundtrack.

Aries - Dead Men Tell No Tales
Don’t know the artist or anything about him but this popped up on my home feed, I clicked, I enjoyed, now I’m passing it on. Hopefully you can get something out of it too!

Ludacris - 44 Bars
Now, hear me out. I know he went pop a long time ago but let me cook with this one. This one’s new so if you haven’t heard it yet or you’re apprehensive about touching a Luda track after he featured on Biebers “Baby”, please just listen to an O.G. The dog sound hungrier than ever!

Fred Again - FEISTY ft. BIA
Brilliantly produced song and the live solo dance throughout the whole video goes hard!

Griminal INVITE ONLY FREESTYLE
This is one of the O.G’s of Grime from the UK for anybody interested in where my love for multis came from even as someone that never listened to Eminem like that. Griminal isn’t really active these days so seeing him invited back to a huge platform for this series was brilliant. Helps that he absolutely showed out too!

Nine & Dex - Sydney Sweeney
Not as good as their other tracks, granted. However if you’ve heard of Pete & Bas, Nine & Dex are the two that write and produce for them. And they go hard! If you aren’t feeling this one, go to their channel and out of the handful they’ve released so far, you’ll find GEMS! Nothing but bars every single time! Plus subtitles so the accents won’t affect your ability to catch bars and get hype, I promise!

Window Kid FIRE IN THE BOOTH
Greg’s a good lad I’ve hung out with him a lot over the years so I like sharing this whenever I get the chance. He’s a good old British bulldog and a genuine personality. Hope you enjoy!

If you made it this far : 🙋♂️
as you probably already know, I make my own music. A lot of it remains private on my soundcloud because I like sitting on things for a long time, however this leads to no outside input whatsoever and I get caught in a loop. Maybe you can help? I’ll leave the links to some of my “pieces” below and if you get the chance, let me know what you think! Headphones in for full production effects!

I'm surprised you didn't have "No love" on here. I know you said it was like your favorite eminem flow he's ever done. But that's a respectable list!
This one 👇🏽…. sounds like I’m in an elevator to outer space 🪐 Vibes! 👽 CAPSULE : https://on.soundcloud.com/HR8q2aC5Zn2nkFwpfj
My favorite so far. Very mellow vibes… like swimming in the ocean without having to come out for air. 😌 3000GT : https://on.soundcloud.com/1t9G2oguLQOMocbyUu
Ooh I like that description! I’ll use that as a quote if it ever gets mastered and released haha
Those are all mid compared to what’s in store for yah
That’s encouraging!
Teddy, I can’t play yours, it states the link doesn’t work after I press play on sound cloud. . My tech skills are that of a 2 year old, but can someone else confirm if it works for them please. 🙏🏻
Still having problems playing them? I can maybe DM you a different link?
On ur nf ep review you mentioned logic im curious what your thoughts on him are?
Not only was his album, “The Incredible True Story”, the thing that prompted me to travel Europe and get on a plane for the first time. But my first listen to that album was via a reaction channel called VibeVilla, who I now have a good relationship with because they were the ones that made me want to start reacting to music too! Logic’s music holds a special place in my memories and reminds me of youthful freedom. Some of his music like “Under Pressure” is so deep you wanna call your parents and ask if they’re ok. Then other tracks like “FOMO” are just his artistic expression coming to light, which thankfully is still youthful and playful in its nature! He was an early advocate of Big Sean (listen to “Alright”) and Childish Gambino (listen to “Driving Ms.Daisy”) too, at a time when both were hated by the rap game for different reasons, Logic showed nothing but love to them both and I gotta always rate him for that! I know people think he’s corny but, I just think I found him at the right time to really appreciate the kind of character he is and what he brings to the rap game.
Thank you. Strong 💪🏻 list. Did you ever get the the last verse on beautiful ? Good to see toy soldiers on it. I would add business. Halies song. Best friend. Lucky you. And all of the last three albums. 😆. Will start your songs on my drive to work. That will be fun.
I haven’t listened to it yet, I’m waiting until the end of the album um because I might do a video for it! Let me know if you liked any of the suggestions!
Awesome list so far, can’t wait to see how it changes. I gotta check out some of the stuff recommended later. I still totally want to see what you think of Rosalia’s new concept album, especially Berghain.
Once he hears The Ringer and knowing that Ted likes bass heavy music, it'll be his #1 for sure lmaooo, just look at his reaction to MOSH, he was going bonkers!
One word… Overstimulated. It felt like the sound waves were scratching my brain, but not exactly in a good way.😣 Really dope though, I might come back to it later. 🤔
I know what you mean, it is very overstimulating! A lot of my production starts off slow and ends that way but this one starts at 99mph and quickly reaches 100 😂
Liking the vibes on this👇one, it’s only my first listen so a bit soon to tell… 🤷🏻♀️😏🫨 **** OFF : https://on.soundcloud.com/8dNlovqqVwiRaojayL
I enjoyed all of your stuff, but Nightcrawler was it for me. I jumped out of my skin at first coming to it right after “**** Off(also🔥🔥)” but then I was nodding my head along, saying “ughhh” in a good way, and the pauses in the beat???? Just yes
Thank you so much! I’ve been trying so many diffferent production techniques lately but that pause effect is one I’ve been trying to master like a madman! I’m happy you enjoyed it! That “ughhh” sound is the best reaction I could’ve hoped for 😂
Love your stuff and like I said on the live you also got a great voice
Thank you Tye!
No Stan good sir?
It’s a great track and I admire it linguistically and structurally for what it is but it’s not re-listenable for me personally.
This journey has been pretty incredible to watch, and not to rush things BUT I can’t wait for you to get to the technical technical Era of Em. Wha we are hearing now is really child’s play compared to his future stuff. You seem like a hiphop purist an it’s gonna be really interesting to see how you react to the way he structures his verses and the multi syllable schemes he uses which seems like for an eternity. Some of this shit is gonna blow your mind
taking my ball instrumental made me laugh out loud
Respectfully 🙋♂️😂
