  • Welcome to another episode of the Record Report!

    For this episode, we're heading back down south to listen to Atlanta rapper Trouble's debut studio album Edgewood.

    Mostly produced by Georgia producer MikeWillMadeIt, the original 16-track EP uses a different aesthetic to help Trouble's story of theft, grit, and perseverance. Edgewood also featured a wide array of stars including Drake, TheWeeknd, and Boosie Badazz. It was the only album to make the Billboard 200 before he died in 2022.

    In this episode, Ahmad and Vance talk about the album's complex production, Boosie's influence in the rap industry, and what could have been if Trouble had been able to live through his career.

    We also talk about what we listen to, how great Cowboy Carter is, and Country Raps.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report!

    In this episode, we'll be taking a trip back over the pond, and back in time to review Cymande's self-titled debut, Cymande.

    Dropping only a year after Funkadelic's Maggot Brain and long before other projects influenced the sound of the 1970s, Cymande is a project that uses several influences across the globe to create one of the earliest forms of funk music. Their story is told mainly through separate interviews and the documentary Getting It Back: The Story of Cymande.

    Like they always do, Ahmad and Vance choose their Top 3 tracks, talk about the international elements behind the complex production, and why Cymande's music is one that many music (and hip-hop) lovers should give a listen.

    We also talk about 'Like That', Amapiano, and take a look through Wale's Billboard charts stats.

  • We're glad to see you again for episode 5 of the Record Report!

    For this episode, we have Radio DJ and Skater SylvrDolla in the building to talk about Tyler, the Creator's 4th studio album, Flower Boy.

    Releasing in the summer of 2017, the Grammy-nominated LP faced tough competition in the rap genre with projects like Jay Z's 4:44 and Kendrick Lamar's DAMN. However, with its list of stars to grace the album from Kalis Uchis to A$AP Rocky, Flower Boy made a statement that summer by debuting at #2 on the Billboard 200, and was met with critical acclaim.

    As always, Ahmad, Vance, and SylvrDolla choose their Top 3 tracks, discuss behind-the-scenes notes from FLOWER BOY: a conversation, and find out how the project became a precursor to the Grammy-award winning follow-up Igor.

  • Welcome back to Season 4 of The Record Report!

    Ford this episode, we're heading over the pond to review Little Simz's third album The Grey Area.

    Dropping in 2019, The Grey Area was released to critical and commercial success, getting placed on television shows like Ballers, and even grabbing the spotlight on Apple Music in the late 2010s.

    From self-love to losing a loved one, the project paints a picture of a world that struggles to balance between a modern utopia and dystopia through Simz's stories.

    As always, Ahmad and Vance choose their top 3, debate if the album has grime influences, and talk about some of the stronger themes that the album had.

    We also talk about Cleo Soul, Schoolboy Q's new album Blue Lips, and songs for Happy Days.

  • Welcome back to Season 4 (and 50th Episode) of the Record Report!

    For this episode, we're heading south to North Carolina to review Little Brother's Sophmore album The Menstrual Show. At the time of this album's release, the group faced scrutiny for its polarizing concept, which references the offensive shows of the same name that were popular in the early 1900s.

    Despite the controversy, the group managed to create arguably the best album in their catalog. Using a satirical television show to make fun of the state of mainstream hip hop at the time, while illustrating the true struggles of a rap artist.

    Like they always do this time, Vance and Ahmad pick their Top 3 tracks, discuss The Menstrual Show's effects on Little Brother's commercial success, and how their music impacted Hip Hop's next generations to come.

    We also mention what we've been listening to lately, Kanye West, and old commercial jingles.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report.

    This week, we're taking a revolutionary stance with Dead Prez's second album RBG: Revolutionary But Gangsta.

    Dropping in the Spring of 2004, RBG was a project that spotlighted the duo's versatility in sounds, yet consistency in message. With features from rap stars like Jay-Z and Krazy Bone, the album doesn't hesitate to take a conscious approach to rap music in the 2000s with more southern sounds.

    In this episode, Vance and Ahmad choose their top 3 tracks, discuss Dead Prez's impact on the culture, and talk about the need for more diversity in hip-hop.

    We also talk about the Grammys, what we've been listening to recently, and how good Krazy Bone is.

  • Welcome back to Season 4 of the Record Report!

    To kick off the year, we're taking the trip to Philly with Jill Scott's debut LP Who Is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds, Volume 1.

    Released July 18, 2000, the Philadelphia star's Grammy-nominated project was one of the first to introduce a new sound to the music world. From Beyonce using He Loves Me in a 2007 live performance to samples being used to enhance new beats, Who Is Jill Scott was a success that continues to fuel modern music. It was also the album to introduce us to one of the decade's first stars in the soul genre.

    In this episode, Vance and Ahmad choose their top 3 tracks, talk about the album's musical connection to the DMV, and discuss her impact on the culture in the modern era of R&B.

    We also list what we've been listening to lately, talk about hip-hop blending into different genres, and Tierra Whack (Before SHOWER SONG).

    As we prepare for Season 4 (and 2024), we take some time to look back at the year and what we loved about the music world.

    Vance and Ahmad choose their favorite artists of 2023, Hip-Hop's 50th anniversary, discuss the genre's influence in the modern music industry, and women's grasp of the game currently.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report!

    For this episode, we're heading down south to VA to hear the sounds of Missy and Timbaland through the female artist's debut album Supa Dupa Fly.

    From Timbo's experimental beats to Missy's slick rhymes slide through some insane visuals, Supa Fly was a project that showcased the VA native's versatility as a musician. Her rhymes paint vivid pictures through a wide spectrum of love ballads, powerful duets, and unique bangers that made cars and clubs shake.

    Like they always do this time, Vance and Ahmad choose their top 5 tracks (or they try to) from the LP, talk about Timbaland's colorful palate of sample choices, discuss Missy collaborating with other female artists like Aaliyah, and mention her ability to arrange legendary songs.

    We also reveal what we listened to lately, and debate about Jay-Z albums we don't like.

  • Welcome back to Episode 10 of the Record Report!

    This week, we're reviewing Freddie Gibb and Madlib's first collaborative album, Pinata.

    With the album dropping reasonably early in March of 2014, it quickly became a standout gem in a very buzzing year in music.

    Pinata garnered critical acclaim thanks to a surprising blend of raw street rhymes from Gibbs with eclectic beats made by Madlib coated with Blaxploitation-themed skits and clips.

    From hustling out the streets of Gary, Indiana to building a home for himself in California, Pinata talks about Freddie's life at the time of his early rise to Hip Hop glory. On the flip side, the project features an incredible set of Madlib beats that mold classic love ballads and jazz numbers into bangers that the rapper skates on.

    Like we always do this time...

    We choose our top 3 tracks, talk about Freddie and Madlib's organic connection throughout the project, and also discuss Freddie and Madlib's trajectory following Pinata's release.

  • Welcome Back to the Record Report!

    For this episode, we're taking the train to Queens with our guest DJ Rugby Segal to review Nas' sophomore project It Was Written.

    Dropping in 1996, It Was Written reached both critical and commercial success thanks to a blend of beats from household names like DJ Premier, Trackmasters, and Dr. Dre, as well as Nas' ability to tell vivid street stories.

    As always, we choose their top three tracks, Howard talks about the album's immediate impact, and Vance talks about how It Was Written could be the album to make him stop trolling Nas.

    We also talk about what we're listening to, HipHop50 weekend moves, and iconic rap moments at Morgan.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report!

    This week, we're going back in time to listen to a Funky classic.

    We're talkin' about Maggot Brain, the 3rd studio album by Funkadelic.

    Dropping 2 years before Hip Hop was born in 1971, this album would later inspire the next generations in the genre.

    The 7-track LP is completely produced by George Clinton and is a journey through cosmic keys, crazy guitar riffs, and aggressive drums but with a savory soulful undertaste. While it managed to come out strong with critical and commercial success at the time, it ties deeply into rappers' minds from Los Angeles to New Orleans.

    As always, we choose their top three tracks from Maggot Brain, talk about the historical context of the project's success, and tell some of the stories we've heard about the album's creation.

    we also talk about what we're listening to, lazy producers, and Flying Lotus.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report!

    This week, we're taking a trip inside the mind of a musical genius.

    There are a lot of different opinions about Mac Miller.

    His original brand was polarizing in the Blog Era, but his musical growth always remained intact throughout his career. That seems to be how he made Faces, his 11th mixtape that was released on May 11th, 2014.

    Compared to many other albums, this one takes a serious dark turn. The Pittsburgh artist managed to blend jazz with modern sounds to illustrate the madness that he encompassed on his journey. Fortunately, there are bright spots that also boost his boisterous personality, and both highs and lows come together to create an experience that makes you both excited for Mac Miller's experimentation, but more concerned about the demons he faced.

    In this episode, we choose our top three tracks, talk about some of the samples used in Faces, and talk about how it felt to listen to the album knowing the struggles he faced in life until his end.

    we also talk about what we're listening to, and secret/hidden features in music.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report!

    This week, we're going overseas to hear a rebel's sound.

    We're talking about British artist M.I.A.'s 2013 Matangi to be exact.

    M.I.A's career was at a very weird period in the later part of the Blog Era. While the artist's diverse array of sound helped contribute to the early rise of international influence in the 2000s, her success also made her a target for controversy. Fortunately, Matangi was both a daring response to her criticism while still also managing to get people of different backgrounds to the dancefloor.

    In this episode, we choose our top three tracks, we talk about M.I.A's diverse musical connections to Hip Hop (maybe Baltimore Club Music), and talk how she's contributed to the rise of music across the globe in the modern era of music. Vance also talks about seeing Matangi up close at U Street Music Hall back when it first dropped in 2013.

    we also talk about what we're listening to, and horrorcore from a Brotha with a wild name.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report!

    This week, we're gonna take you back to 1996 with Tupac's first posthumous album The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory.

    When this album dropped, it was a very confusing point in time for the music world. It dropped two months after Tupac's death, and it wasn't even with his actual stage name. This was the first (and last) album under the moniker Makaveli, and for many fans, The Don Killuminati started the spreading of rumors that speculated Tupac was alive. However, the project had gems like "Hail Mary" and also began the rapper's musical run in his afterlife.

    In this episode, we choose our top three tracks, talk about the history surrounding the sound and message of the project, and kind of figure out why this album still resonates to this day for many rap fans young and old.

    We also talk about the album within the scope of "Dear Mama" and mention what we've been listening to lately.

  • Welcome to Episode 3 of your favorite music podcast, The Record Report.

    This week, we'll be taking a BUS RIDE (all puns intended) through Kaytranada's debut studio album, 99.9%.

    Following a slew of SoundCloud flips to get people to the dancefloor in the early 2010s like his flip of Teedra Moses' track "Just Wanna Be Your Girl," Kaytranada was on a steady rise in the music industry. The hype only kicked into a second gear when he signed to XL Recordings in 2014 and the label eventually announced that he would drop a debut album. "LEAVE ME ALONE" was the lead single that most fans knew, but the Montreal producer had a knack for teasing tracks from 99.9% throughout several live mixes while touring, from Broccoli City Fest to Afropunk.

    When 99.9% came out, the album met much-deserved critical and commercial acclaim for having such a refreshing sound in (what was at the time) the turning tide of music. However, what we didn't know coming back into it now is how much it's aged like a fine wine. Not only was Kaytra's debut a precursor for his historical Grammy-winning album BUBBA, but it included a wide variety of talent from young legends like Craig David and Phonte to artists that set the tone for the industry in the 2010s like Syd and Anderson .Paak.

    For this episode, we choose our top 3 songs from 99.9%, talk about the album's importance to the electronic/house genre at that time, and give our flowers to several underrated artists who made a splash in the 2010s from River Tiber to BadBadNotGood.

    We also talk about the lack of good R&B (from men) that doesn't focus mainly on sex, and mention what we listen to breaking shit in the gym.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report Season 3!

    Episode 3 is a real homecoming. We're reviewing Goldlink's debut studio album, At What Cost.

    This project was pivotal to the DMV for many reasons. On paper, "Crew" is currently certified 6x Platinum by the RIAA and even earned a Grammy nomination in 2018. But each song on the 14-track LP provides a different side to the city through versatile sounds and a slew of talent from the area from Lil Dude to Mya.

    We also have our special guest DJ Marauder in the building to talk about the making of At What Cost.

    In this episode, we choose our top three tracks, and Marauder breaks all aspects of the album.

    We also talk about how to truly build relationships in the DMV artist scene, Ray J, and what we've been listening to lately.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report Season 3!

    For episode 2, we'll be tasting a little Dirty Sprite. DS2 that is...

    While Trap Music was already growing as a sub-genre in the early 2010s with acts like Migos, Future was an artist to watch thanks to early bangers like "Tony Montana" and "Move That Dope." His 2015 run would be historical in many ways from DJ Esco coming home, to dropping both Monster and 56 Nights as a lead-up to his 3rd album, but DS2 was the album that would push Future to the forefront of the genre.

    DS2 was a project that not only made him a superstar, but it also was one of the projects to transition the sound of rap to the current decade. His music was everywhere and (aside from performing at festivals like Made In America), even finished the summer off with a Drake collab that helped pushed Apple Music into the streaming industry.

    We didn't know how much this new success (and pressure) affected him. Sure, DS2 was both successful and critically acclaimed, but after hearing his commentary for the album, you get a deeper dive into where Future was when he made his most known project.

    For this episode, we choose our highlights, Ahmad drops bombs throughout after listening to DS2's commentary, and Future's legacy since his magnum opus dropped.

    We also talk about what we've been listening to lately, protest songs, and juicing.

  • Welcome back to the Record Report We've made it to season 3, and thank you all for staying with us!

    For this episode, we'll be diving into Chance the Rapper's sophomore mixtape Acid Rap.

    When Chance the Rapper dropped Acid Rap in 2013, music was in a transitional period.

    It was a time when Chicago already had its lead star in Kanye West, who made mainstream headlines for My Dark Twisted Fantasy, and the growth of the GOOD Music record label. The Chi also had a budding internet music scene thanks to Chief Keef's 2012 viral hit "I Don't Like," bringing the city's Drill scene to a national audience.

    However, Chance reached the blog scene with his debut project, 10 Day Tape, but really started building momentum toward his sophomore project Acid Rap. The LP was the perfect storm for the artist, featuring a diverse array of sound as well as a slew of stars including Childish Gambino, Twista, Saba, Vic Mensa, Action Bronson, and NoName.

    In our Season 3 premiere, we choose our top 5 songs and talk about Acid Rap's greatness, how pivotal the album was in the music world at the peak of the blog era, and Chance's growth in the music industry.

    We also talk about listening to old Kanye in the 2020s and what we've been listening to lately.
