Welcome to the Rap Report. Corona is affecting everything, including hip-hop. Some of it's negative: RIP Fred the Godson, but some is positive: shout out to Swizz and Timbo for these great and hilarious Verzuz Battles! And Knowledge realized that some of this trap/drug music is basically the new alternative rock.

Music discussed:

• Singles
  • Travis Scott and Kid Cudi - The Scotts
  • Juice WRLD - Righteous
  • Trouble ft Jeezy - Medusa
  • Isaiah Rashad - Why Worry
• Albums/EPs/Mixtapes
  
  • Stalley - Pariah
  • DaBaby - Blame it on Baby
  • Westside Gunn - Pray For Paris

Welcome back! Today we talked about all of the artists who have recently made stinks about their record deals, mostly Kelis, Mase, and Meg Thee Stallion.

The highlights of our Reasonable Shouts were two local artists, Nu Jersey Twork and Deetranada. Then the album dissection:

Jay Electronica's A Written Testimony had us scratching our heads, Eminem's Music To Be Murdered By had us somewhat split, and we both liked Royce's The Allegory A LOT!

This was an odd show. There was no news so we talked about OT Genasis' gem/parody song, Never Knew, which is my favorite song of 2019! Then we had short talks about a bunch of new albums.

New Music:
Fred The Godson
Griselda - WWCD
Stormzy - Heavy is the Head
Atmosphere - Whenever
French Montana - Montana
Max B - House Money
Game - Born 2 Rap

Today on The Rap Report we review Dave East's Survival and Earthgang's Mirrorland, and discuss Joe Rogan's plan to buy that Wu-Tang album that no one heard, along with some music recommendations.

**We're working with a new recording environment so please excuse the audio quality!
