Travis Porter, FKi & MGK - Differenter Gang (Mixtape, 2010)

Differenter Gang is an Atlanta supergroup comprised of post-futuristic swag trio Travis Porter, hipster weirdo rapper/producers FKi and Machine Gun Kelly, an Ohio expat who comes off like a frat boy version of Yelawolf minus the talent and vision. So they’re batting .666 in the name of eclecticism, but you do have to commend them for actually living up to their name and putting together a rap crew that so willingly crosses demographic lines. The tape feels rushed and way too short (especially after you make the necessary playlist chops - bye bye MGK solo tracks) but not nearly as schizophrenic as one would expect. FKi’s production is huge and Travie continue to make small steps in terms of rapping ability. TP remain the obvious stars on the tape but it thrives on compromise, as the others fold their unique sensibilities pretty comfortably into the Travie formula.

“Be Free” is like the swag rap “Hey Ya.”

Trey Sungz f/ Gucci Mane & Wiz Khalifa - “Bottoms Up (Remix)” (Not Googling It, 2010)

If Gucci and Wiz being on the same track seems significant it shouldn’t because it’s not. But it’s cool for what it is. And that is insignificant.

Astoundingly, they aren’t rapping about kush.

Domo Genesis - Rolling Papers (OFWGTKA, 2010)

oddfuture:

Domo Genesis Finally Releases His Album Rolling Papers. Flooded With Bitches, Weed, Females, Marijuana, Sluts, Green Shit And Grocery Stores. Produced By Tyler, The Creator And Left Brain. We’ve Promised You Fucks This Album For Months, But During That Time We’ve Put Together A Really Good Fucking Album. So Roll A Joint, Grab A Bitch, Make A Toaster Strutal and Swag This Shit The Fuck Out. ( Click Photo To Download)

The latest entry in the rapidly snowballing Odd Future catalog. For people (fucking f*****s) who have been thus far turned off by the more deviant aspects of the Wolf Gang then this this might be a good place to start, as Domo is more interested in smoking your sister out than raping her.

Tyler is still probably going to rape her though.

Uh… lyrically. Yeah.

Here’s the full Zoo York Mixtape video reuploaded on our Vimeo. Props to the T.R.O.Y. Blog for the assist. G’head & waste some time while you’re at work.

Yeah this is my favorite skate video of all time and I never even skated. Tons of vintage Stretch & Bob footage here - Meth & Ghost, Busta, Fat Joe, etc. - as well as footage of the late great Roc Radia absolutely murdering shit. It’s weird that it took so long for hip hop to embrace skateboarding when skateboarding embraced hip hop so many years ago. The artists that did catch on early - Hieroglyphics and their very deck-ready logo stickers, for example - managed to cash the fuck in.
