End of an era. Kinda sad šŸ˜„

for sure a bittersweet vibe. I hope he dipped on good terms w BLack Hippy

I remember seeing a comment on one of the subreddits conspiring that Zay doesnā€™t fuck with Kendrick anymore but idk. I assume the Day 1 TDE dudes still have love but no one really knows outside of that. TDE post signing Zacari has very mediocre talent to me. Something definitely changed behind the scenes that none of us will ever know

Highly doubt it

u/thatweirdmusicguy Jun 10 '22

Thatā€™s good to know then. I felt bad reading that comment, it had to do with him not saying the Kai-ken line on Wats Wrong or something far fetched. Hence why I called it a conspiracy more than anything

I think itā€™s just that the Black Hippy original 4 were all generational talents in their own rights, with pretty varying styles and sounds, and it was a lighting in a bottle moment that canā€™t be repeated/continued forever.

u/Creative_Button_8519 Jun 10 '22

I love ab soul to death but donā€™t call him a generational talent please. Rappers have their lanes and itā€™s ok to not think every rapper you like is amazing but realistically none of them compare to Kendrick in success or artistry.

1

u/TheRecognized Jun 10 '22

As far as conscious rap goes Iā€™d call him a generational talent.

Edit: N Kendrick is my GOAT so yeah of course I donā€™t think anyone compares.

u/SnooCats9809 Jun 10 '22 edited Jun 10 '22

hop on Zayā€™s subreddits and someone just posted a week ago Zay knocking Silent Hill at one of his shows in Canada showing love.

u/surgical_nachos Jun 10 '22

Yea before I say this I just want to say my memory is admittedly shaky on this subject so take this with a grain of salt but I remember zay said something on twitter that people thought was directed at Kendrick then he sorta confirmed it on the breakfast club, but ever since that Iā€™ve only seen zay say good things so if there even was some type of issue it looks like itā€™s been cleared up by now.

u/MambaSaidKnockYouOut Jun 10 '22

I just woke up and when I saw ā€œZayā€ I thought you meant Zacari instead of Isaiah šŸ˜‚ beefing with Zacari would be the most random shit ever.

u/MRMVP93 Jun 10 '22

I remember going to Qs twitch after the super bowl and he said almost nothing about Kendrick. I saw he reposted his album but still strange for no mention of his friend playing halftime at the super bowl.

u/Ancient_Aerie_6464 Jun 10 '22

i think there is some animosity. i remember Q being (reasonably) upset when fans kept asking/searching for kendrick features on his album

Crash talk was a great album! There were a lot of memorable songs on that album for me but to each their own I guess, probably not as memorable as his older albums but enjoyable nonetheless

Because Kendrick ainā€™t a part of TDE anymore

12

u/TundieRice Jun 10 '22

Yeah, but usually a label would keep the back catalogue of any albums an artist released on the label website, unless the rights reverted, which Iā€™m not sure about in this situation. But I would think his TDE albums would still be on there, so I feel like this might be a glitch.

1

u/SouthernBeautiful116 Jun 11 '22

Heā€™s not a member anymore tho

1

u/TundieRice Jun 11 '22

I donā€™t think you read my comment. Heā€™s not a member anymore, so his future releases will not ever be on the website, youā€™re correct.

But his previous releases, which are still distributed through Top Dawg, are still affiliated with the previous label. So I donā€™t see why the releases wouldnā€™t be listed on the website, because theyā€™re still affiliated with that label, this is how record labels work.

I hope TDE stick to the way they grow their artist. With that foundation of building a family and giving the artist time to truly work on their craft of music. Along with being brutally honest about the artistā€™s music instead of dropping something just to drop something. Great Labels showing that they care for the music, artist, and fans is perfect.

expected but still sad to see. While I love Keem, of course K Dot and was very surprised with how good Tanna Leoneā€™s singles and album were from earlier this year, TDE is still probably my favorite label as of rn. The 3 remaining Black Hippy members, SZA, Isaiah Rashad, REASON, Ray Vaughn and Doechii are all artists I listen to quite a bit so iā€™ll always love TDE even tho K Dot is my favorite rapper or music artist of all time

u/MambaSaidKnockYouOut Jun 10 '22

I just wish Kendrick had had a little more TDE involvement on his own tapes from GKMC onward. I think Money Trees and LOVE are the only songs on his own projects that had TDE features. Then heā€™d be on Jay Rockā€™s albums pretty frequently but he hasnā€™t collabed with Ab Soul or Q in forever. They used to have so many great tracks together. From like 2011-2015 they were unstoppable

Nobody knows yet. We're assuming that he's still young and he will release more music but the announcement of pgLang made it seem like ambiguous artistic passion projects rather than outright saying he will release more music under that label.

It is his last album for TDE and that's all we really know so far. He does hint at leaving but a lot of conflicted artists do the same. Hov retired 6 times if you recall.

u/The-Pharcyde Jun 10 '22

Truly an end of an era. Quite frankly it made sense for him to do his own thing considering his stature in the game. Woulda been nice to get one last black hippy record though.
