what rap/hip-hop are you dudes listening to lately?
i'm all across the board in terms of styles and regions. right now the south is killing everybody in terms of production and keeping things fresh.
also, the bay area is really putting out some great stuff right now. it's sad that there's only a handful of decent mc's making worthwhile music from the east coast right now. shoutouts to new orleans too.
top 5 mc's right now:
the jacka
big k.r.i.t.
currensy
gucci mane
wale
some jams i've been rocking:

this shit is pretty interesting. churn up a bunch of assorted drugs and drink them up.
POS is nice! i'm digging that. laid back.
die antwoord is a bad gimmick. nothing more than that. id rather jam on some dirt nasty if i want hipster rap.
mitchy duz it is probably one of my favourite mixtapes ever. the songs with strong arm steady/phil da agony and krondon are also rad.
anybody hitting up the smoker's club tour???? currensy, big krit, smoke dza, mac miller, etc etc... looks so good. already grabbed tix.

can anyone suggest any other white girl rap-talkers who are also within the realm of pop music? extra bonus if it's catchy, has lots of hooks, and 14 year old girls would like it.
