@ history made the rules. Look at the rappers that show up in the GOAT debate. They rap. They don’t genre hop to the latest pop trend. SMH at you Aubrey fans.
Kendrick cracked my Top 10! Greatest MCs list because he is good to great in every aspect of an MC. His variety in albums is what OutKast and Kanye did meaning they are all totally different but potent. He has passed a few legends now but it’s going to be hard to accept from many. Peace - Tony
My favorite verse of the year is the last verse of "Meet the Grahams." That verse and the way it was delivered, especially at the end, has stuck with me. I think about it every time I hear about Drake's antics or see him on my screen. 😂
BEST Rap Roundtable to date!!!!! Sooo GOOD!!! Everything KDOT!🙌🏾 The way yall gave that KING 🤴🏾 his well deserved Crown! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you Gentlemen!!!🤎🤎🤎🤎Yall are the MVP POD for that!!!🫶🏾
This is definitely the Best Rap Podcast that is out right now..these guys are so authentic and they keep it real..I look forward to watching them expand in 2025..
The talk about the first week sale completely ignored the various bundles that artists and labels keep putting together to manipulate the charts. Travis Scott's "Days Before Rodeo" is a prime example.
We’ve talked about bundles on previous episodes. In fact, we did that 2 weeks ago. But we were more focused on how important the metric was in this conversation. Keep tapping in
This is the best hip hop wrap up I seen all year for one reason, the fellas called everything down the line and how we all seen everything play out rather if they liked the artist or not. I feel like I seen A lot of people lowkey trynna to downplay how amazing of a year Kendrick had it was his year without a doubt never understood the group of people out there thats saying alot of he had a good year, But.........
I been peepin yall since during the battle. Yall have become my "can't miss" pod! This solidified it. Yall the only bunch to give flowers to Euphoria! Lol. Yall I played dat shit to hell man! It's so good. Much love man keep grinding. Da game need yall!
Cin was on point about 50 becoming formalic. In an old interview. 50 said "God Gave Me Style" was the 1st track he made for hisn2nd album. He said his gma heard it & told him to keep doing what made him blow up. That was the beginning of the end for 50. Didn't follow his creativity.
Ma$e was spot on with the record sales talk when it comes to your prior work...If your last album was fire, your next album gets the hype based off of that.. It's common knowledge of if the last was great, the next one should be better..Great point once again
Love the show guys. Thanks for all the content this year. One thing, are you seriously saying that you don't like any of the songs on Missionary? I liked more than half the songs on there. Happy new year.
I don't get why people act brand new to rap beefs. In a beef it is about who wins over the crowd. When the crowd chooses, that’s not a collaborative effort to end someone. That’s not a conspiracy cause the crowd just wants to be entertained and wow’d. Kendrick put on the best show that had the best music/disses.
People say sales don't matter until they're able to use sales to make their favorite rapper sound important. Sales aren't everything but the most impactful albums usually have a sales history that coincides with the impact. First week sales show the level of public interest and sales over time show how satisfied the people are with the music.
50 Cent thinks he did it all himself. He had the Eminem co-sign and the Dr. Dre co-sign. GRODT does not get made if he’s still with the Trackmasters. 45:33
It means more now because people don’t even listen to albums anymore. As soon as the first week sales come out and it reads 20 thousand people will say it’s trash and won’t even listen it
Mase did his thing on the "first week" topic. To answer Jar, the only rapper I've seen recently do bigger numbers after their album drop is Doechii. However, this is an anomaly.
Deni I appreciate your choice. But can you give me one album (2024) that can top the following GNX’s trucks. * Man at the garden * Wacced out murals * Heart part 6 * Reincarnated * Dodger blues * Luther * Gloria * squabble up…. Shoutout to @Mase as of you speaking of now you described GNX at best. Shout out to Sincere too. Jav, i am commenting as of you speaking now. But i know you are going to say GNX is the best and explain it best just like Mase.
Kanye's music was 3x better than 50's by the time that face off happened too. That's the point no one is making. Same with Kenny and Drake. Kenny's music is just better at this point, and IMO, Kenny's music was always better than Drake's.
Hi gentlemen-I am in agreement w/ all your choices except Ladies MVP as I feel it's def Megan (Megan Act II was dope & that TYG Rock-influenced joint is great), plus she had the Tour & always has more endorsements than ALL THE RAP GIRLIES combined so yeah-but do love what Doechi is bringing and Glo & Meg needs a collab album-then KDOT for the Male MVP & Euphoria def is my fav...thoroughly enjoyed this review/reaction!
You guys should listen to the video of Kendrick and Dave Free when they were in NY. Kendrick consistently alternates between more the GKMC/Damn/GNX vibe and TPAB/MrMorale. He doesn’t it intentionally because the commercial hits aren’t his primary focus. He’s focus on quality and longevity and knows his audience is complex. MrMorale is a fav of mine personally but the beauty in Kendrick is he can do it all without compromising artistry or content
He planted his flagpole is wild...🤣Cin be out here saying things inadvertently.😂 I kinda liked Missionary tho 😭esp outta da blue, thank you, gun n smoke, and a few others. It wasnt really bad in my opinion.
Kendrick shouldn't waste his GPT (God's precious time)on him .Besides if 50 makes any diss track I won't listen to it or reactions.#Oneverything 😂 😂 I'm on some bullshit too .💯👋🏽
Cinsere nailed it on the Kanye vs 50 take. Kanye wasn’t no new guy 50 was initiating a challenge with. Kanye was two classics in. There wasn’t any group of artist trying to dethrone 50, Kanye did that by himself. Kanye was the voice of the ppl after College dropout and Late Registration. 50 ran into a buzz saw. It’s worse for Drake because Kendrick isn’t on the beat machine half the time, he’s a savage on the mic. Drake knew better but his pride got him phuced up lol
Serious question, since everyone can SEE the numbers, and we’re talking how we’re talking…do you think it’s the NUMBERS that we’re talking heavy about? In a rush to hate you failed to use your brain.
Love y’all but TDE Roundtable is right, Euphoria is the song of the yr? That’s straight insane I’ll give you not like us but I can name 10 songs better than Euphoria, and this Doechi hype is ridiculous she’s no Che Noir
Doechii was MVP. Her complete album was amazing. Her performances and roll out have been way better than Glo. And she is what an MVP is about. Jarv I’m sorry I love you but you buggin.
Dude with the white coat capping even when he said album of the year. He didn't wanna say it. Like that set it off. Feature of the year. I know yah gotta listen to him 👀 He struggling & his body language
All respect but yall should do your research before speaking... Doechii had her best week of sales last week eventhough her album dropped about a month ago
This is my FAVORITE found podcast in 2024. I love the energy, honest opinions and lack of glazing. Keep this energy going in 2025!
🤟🤟🤟 the same is her
Yup found them thru the great hip hop war of 2024...glad I did
@@rainmaker1169same here
Frfr favorite podcast 4 hip hop. Love from NC
It'll be interesting because the last few artists 50 put his arm around fell off pretty hard after.
That’s crazy
@@TheCompanyMan the infamous XXL cover with soulja, him rocking with 69.
“Sandra, sit down what I’m about to say is heavy, now listen.”
That’s verse of the year.
Don’t forget to clear your throat 😂

Good comments on Kendrick. He’s a generational talent.👊🏽
54:06 Can’t be the GOAT in rap when 40% of your catalog ain’t rap. Drake is pop and that’s cool. Just stay in that lane.
Who made those rules? You? Who made you king ?
@ history made the rules. Look at the rappers that show up in the GOAT debate. They rap. They don’t genre hop to the latest pop trend. SMH at you Aubrey fans.
Kendrick cracked my Top 10! Greatest MCs list because he is good to great in every aspect of an MC. His variety in albums is what OutKast and Kanye did meaning they are all totally different but potent. He has passed a few legends now but it’s going to be hard to accept from many. Peace - Tony
Couldn't agree more.
@@nikk796 basically what Nas has been doing his entire career??? Even the 6 hit boy albums all sound different and structured different
@@humblebragger500yea at a higher level but we know as much as the media loves kendrick, they dislike Nas.

One of my best findings in 2024 is this podcast. In my top 5 hip hop podcasts list.

A lot of pods gave flowers to euphoria, its actually the best record from kendrick in the whole exchange

While I enjoyed both albums, GloRilla gets my vote for MVP. Doechii, I believe, will earn it next year if she continues on this trajectory.
I love this podcast. Good vibes for 2025
Shoutout to The Rap Roundtable 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 happy and prosperous new year 🎉
Much love @ Rap round table From Tigray,Ethiopia

The illest pod right now, salute to the guys
50% of his catalogue is pop r&b and stolen styles. He's not an emcee. So he's not a goat. And he has 👻s so nah
It was contrived

Mase. I love the way you explained GNX 🤟🤟🤟
Dope show as always , aside from the music seeing your pod get more and more traction was one of the highlights of 2024 for me … 🎉🎉
Dochii for MvP 😁

What about the Dr. Dre and Snoop Record??? Redman? Ice Cube dropped no love?
16:36 yall should have added video clip.

I dont believe Wayne or Snoop
Many people don't believe them, but they generally get a pass on their lies because they're respected.
Jarv is spitting, Jarv is really spitting yo
A pause within a pause 😂
What about @ wacced out murals last verse
Yoyo @Theraproundtable y'all gonna make the live shows download downloadable again ???
Salute to RRT in 2025 happy new year best podcast out
Shout out Jarv for mentioning Blue Lips. I think it’s hands down the best album this year. GNX fire too.
Always gotta find your tribe
I won’t lie that 50 pov by Jarv was elite
And on point
50 was def falling off already
And the comparison with drake 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Ma$E cooooked lil baby. 😂😂😂
The boy went from working with dudes that bring a different flavor to wearing other dude's style like a mask.
TRR has to tell us which podcast they don’t F with, for the culture! Salute until 2025

This is a bad year for Non Writers & Reciters!
Doechi tiny desk should be seen by the team, because there is no way you would pick any other female rapper outside of Doechi.
You guys should listen to the video of Kendrick and Dave Free when they were in NY. Kendrick consistently alternates between more the GKMC/Damn/GNX vibe and TPAB/MrMorale.
He doesn’t it intentionally because the commercial hits aren’t his primary focus. He’s focus on quality and longevity and knows his audience is complex.

I completely agree GKMC, then GNX , DAMN...Top 3
You gotta fit OD and section 80z
Ya’ll truly packed up lil baby 🤣🤣🤣
Only thing i liked recently was that central cee jawn and it was really about Cee
Yes Meg!!! But Glo too
I guess 50 should see himself in Jarule too
No Cyn, GNX is raw. But Tyler’s is still 🔥 too. Relax
Opinions bro
@ nah, he was talking too slick. Thats why Jarv had to step in
💯
Az chike on peekaboo
I cant see them saying anything abt yall just white coat. He was sooo uncomfortable. I love yah & yaf funny
