Cudi's perfect track record of having 0 good albums is still in tact

Apparently a new Jay Rock single is out on Apple Music. I do not have Apple Music.

Edit: Damn I summoned you.

That jay rock song is whatever, what happened to his grungier, tougher voice tho. I don't listen to Jay Rock for this lame shit. Of course I don't listen to him but yeah..

And?^^ Doesn't CDQ just mean studio version and not ripped from a stream?
CDQ means CD quality and generally is regarded as a steady 320kbps (yes, i know that's not technically right nerds, just going by ripping standards). soundclouds max encoding allowance is 128kbps so you're never gonna get CDQ on soundcloud by virtue of the platform

the ear can't hear more than 128kbps anyway

(I see. Used the wrong term. Just meant to ask if it's a stream rip or not.)

O, and apparently SC recently changed it to 64kbps Opus:
SoundCloud recently swapped its audio format from 128 kbps MP3 to 64 kbps Opus and some users are not happy about it.

[...]

Though the numbers may seem like the streaming service has cut its audio quality right in half, it's not that simple. Users have pointed out that Opus (the successor to .ogg) is a higher quality format than MP3 and a 64 kbps Opus file generally sounds better than a 128 kbps MP3. However, users are still reporting hearing a noticeable dip in audio, both on the browser and SoundCloud Go app.

Kids See Ghosts is my favorite of the GOOD drops so far. The production sounds polished and full, Kanye's performance sounds polished and focused (even when he might not be saying anything of note), Cudi is Cudi, and it's the most interesting and diverse musically. The title track is my aesthetic. If Kanye could get some good ghostwriting with a 10 track joint like this (and just stfu outside of music) he could win people over again tbh.

I really hope Nas got this level of care because gotdamn I need a rapper to really tear into these beats. Pusha is one note and Kanye/Cudi aren't those guys.

i feel you didn't mean to get all EEERRR EXCUSE ME SIR ACTUALLY on you.
the sc sound format issue is a whole different ballpark. though also kind of a moot point since sc has always sounded like ass

As a brown man, my only wish from Nav is for him to make videos with fellow Brown women. It would be dope to see videos with some hip hop videos with some sexy south Asian women.

Gunna's year. As a smart man once said:

"I told Gunna it's your time to eat (eat)" —
Navraj Singh Goraya

Dude has been killing it this year. Even his features have been fire.

Also...why the fuck isn't kids sees ghost on spotify yet? I'm pretty sure Ye wasn't up at first either.

Also also, I love hip hop era because we can have more heated discussions without having to worry about catching a ban. (Not that I have time to read posts that are the Bible)
