And you can’t forget about #KushandOrangeJuice & #FromWestsideWithLove.

Pill, Donnis and Big K.R.I.T. are the best mixtapes from the south arguably as well. There is more than Drake. Not taking from his ability to move to close to 1 mill units though. THAT’S BUZZ!

“what new york-reared artist, major or indie, has done that this year?”

how about ever?

I think Raekwon may be the first one. But then again he isnt completely indie.

NY still hasnt caught on to the Independent game yet. They still running to them suits to give them a fish instead of learning how to fish themselves.

TiRon and Curren$y have been two of my favorites. And I’ve heard of DS, but will check them both out though.

Tiron Is more like Kanye than Drake imo. Curren$y is exactly what you described him as.

this rap shit is starting to shape up, at least for the type of music i like. Tip’s album, some cool shit off TML, Kush & O.J., Curren$y (King Kong, & whats that song he has a video for? someone let ya boy kno), K.R.I.T. getting MAD spins on my ipod, J. Cole got a few new joints, Bawse got them bangers on that EP (B.M.F., Fire Hazard, MC Hammer) fucking Eminem (No Love is FIRE), sheeeit i even listen to a lil French Montana.
yea Drake has all the coverage, publicity, & shit but its still hella good (better?) music out there & i will find it.

NO reason to mention NY in this article. The only people that NY is “blaming” for its “issues” is this ridiculous yellow journalism campaign that has been formed against the scene. NY embraces other regions immensely, let’s stop the hate…. All four of these artists are dope and get love in NY, and even though I love Diamond District I know their numbers weren’t crazy enough to make anyone jealous…

I still hate the fact that good artists are always on boring and sometimes just straight up whack beats. I mean on mainstream yea the beats are catchy and sometimes simple, but sit there tell me that “Flex” beat wasnt hot. Just imagine a dope ass emcee on that beat. It would be an awesome joint. Good rappers need to stop worrying about being real Hip-Hop and just be Real Hip-Hop. Its ok to make exciting, interesting, and danceable beats. They dont have to be back to basics boom bap beats, because its clear those kind of beats are not marketable. I think the Cool Kids and even Ski Beats do a great job in making Boom Bap beats that are not boring and have beats that entertain the ear and can make you dance. Not just bob your head. I hate it when I hear a dope artist on a head nod beat, its cool.

From what I’ve heard from Ski Beatz his beats are more than head Nod, you can move your body, and thats what emcee’s have to remember. Your job is to Entertain.
