As a writer, the moments are few and far between where you feel as if you are penning in your genuine language: scribing the words, thoughts or sounds that are inherently etched upon your soul. In these moments, your thoughts run naturally and authentically, with a clarity and simplicity that cuts through even the most complex thought. That is the beauty of the perfect hip hop track\u2013 the unique combination of an impeccable beat, matched by purposeful flow.\u00a0 The involuntary head nod when an artist snaps, coupled with the pondering moment when the double meaning of a potent bar strikes.<\/p>\n

Today, it is my pleasure to come to you as both: the writer and hiphop head, with the opportunity to introduce a playlist that feels as if it were composed with an innate understanding of my music preferences in mind. \u00a0From top to bottom, TodaysHipHop playlist<\/a><\/em><\/strong> represents some of the dopest lyricism, premier features, and genre-bending music in the rap game over the past few years. The Today\u2019s HipHop<\/em><\/strong> staff will be regularly updating and expanding the playlist to showcase the freshest out, and will be considering submissions from labels, managers and artists.\u00a0 With 2,000+ listeners on day one, and new heat being added regularly, TodaysHipHop<\/em> <\/strong>is a must follow, showcasing tracks from some of today\u2019s top hip hop artists in the Chill Lyricist category, including J Cole<\/a>, Saba<\/a>, Bas<\/a>, Joey Bada$$<\/a>, Kota the Friend<\/a>, Smino<\/a>, Isaiah Rasahd and more.<\/p>\n

You can sample the playlist below, or checkout the official playlist on Spotify<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With great difficulty, I\u2019ve ranked my top 5 tracks (one track per artist).\u00a0 As the playlist grows, we will periodically provide write-ups on some of our favorite new additions.<\/p>\n

You can stream the playlist on spotify HERE<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

5)<\/strong> Amphetamine<\/em> \u2013 Smino (feat. Bari, Jean Deaux, and Noname) \u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Smino has long since been a better rapper than your favorite rapper and a better singer than your favorite singer.\u00a0 Nearly eight minutes in length, and featuring Jean Deux, Bari Allen and Noname, this track leans on dark ambiance, silky-smooth delivery, and lush vocal layering. \u00a0\u00a0Amphetamine <\/em>is the final track on Smi\u2019s 2017 breakthrough album blkswn<\/em>, and nearly eight minutes in length.\u00a0 <\/em>Produced by Monte Booker, the instrumental is broken into two parts a bit downtempo and open, with typical Booker organ melodies leaving lots of space for Smino\u2019s lonely tone, and ferocious wordplay to breathe.\u00a0 Several bars stand out in the St. Louis rapper\u2019s first verse, but right off the bat he hits you with an emotional gut shut, followed up directly with some typically clever wordplay: (\u201cWhy they take lil bro instead of me?\/I hurt when you hurt, we was siamese\u201d).\u00a0 Chalk full of soul, emotional writing, and beautiful collaboration, Amphetamine <\/em>is a must listen.<\/p>\n

4) Life \u2013 <\/em>Saba <\/strong><\/p>\n

Pushed by murky, dark and an almost creepy aesthetic, the instrumentation on this joint sets the stage for Chicago and Pivot Gang rapper Saba to spit with ferocity, honesty, and grit about the experience of a young black man from the West Side.\u00a0 This track is lyrically heavy, painting vivid pictures of struggle, loss, and angst: (\u201cMomma mixed the vodka with the Sprite\/They killed my cousin with a pocket knife\/While my uncle on the phone\/He was gone for more than half my life\/He got out a year and then he died\u201d).\u00a0 This track is about tone, Saba\u2019s savage flow, and godamn, the bassline goes in. Be sure to peep the video for some dark aesthetics to match the content. Look for more Saba soon as the playlist grows.<\/p>\n

3) Tribe <\/em>\u2013 Bas (feat. J.Cole) <\/strong><\/p>\n

Fans of EA sports \u201cFIFA\u201d will recognize this bop from the soundtrack.\u00a0 Pushed by an upbeat, banging instrumental, this is one of those tracks that hits you with instant good vibes and positivity.\u00a0 Produced by Childish Major, in collaboration with Cole, this song is quite simply a celebration.\u00a0 Bas goes in, his verses emphasizing the finer things in life from the perspective of a Dreamville rapper, and speaking realistically about the good vibes he\u2019s feeling for a lady friend.\u00a0 It’s easy to appreciate Bas as a down-to-earth, humble ass dude.\u00a0 You see little-to-no bravado in his lyricism, and that remains true here, even in a track that discusses the rewards of success in such an optimistic fashion.\u00a0 And of course, Cole goes in:\u00a0 (\u201cGod shuffled the cards, dealt me a hand with impossible odds\/Put an obstacle course up, look, and I conquered them all\/With minimal effort I’m fresher than sock in your drawer\/They spinning my records so heavy, I’m topping the Forbes\u201d). If you\u2019re looking for a combination of soul paired with trap drums and 808s, good vibes mixed with a banger, this is your joint.<\/p>\n

2) Church<\/em> \u2013 Kota the Friend <\/strong><\/p>\n

Selecting the Kota track from this playlist to write about was the most difficult process.\u00a0 Brooklyn\u2019s Kota the Friend is just about the most consistent spitta out right now, dropping project after project that deserve to be spun front to back.\u00a0 Church <\/em>comes from Kota\u2019s 2019 sophomore album Foto<\/em> and exemplifies the sincerity, vision and introspection of his lyricism.\u00a0 In typical fashion, Church<\/em> is propelled by a lofi style beat, with a pensive guitar rift, and an airy canvas for Kota to paint with his vivid pallette. Kota\u2019s understated delivery, positive messages, and impeccable beat selection make him an irresistable choice for lovers of effortless, meaningful hip-hop.\u00a0 (\u201cSunday love will not make you forget who you was\/You don’t gotta change if you do not want\/Bitch love yourself.\u201d) As his name implies, Kota the Friend is the rapper that is there for you when you are feeling sensitive, vulnerable and in need of enlightenment.<\/p>\n

1) Under The Sun \u2013 <\/em><\/strong>(Dreamville, J.Cole, Lute, DaBaby) <\/strong><\/p>\n

Hip-hop has rarely seen the first track on a compilation album go as hard as this one. I vividly remember connecting the monitors and leaning back to listen to Revenge Of The Dreamers III <\/em>for the first time, expecting an intro or mood setter and hearing this beat drop.\u00a0 Christo, (responsible for much of Dreamville stud J.I.D\u2019s production) cooked up the beat, sampling \u201cI\u2019ll Be Waiting for You\u201d by the Argo Singers. The sample is flame, the drums go in, and Cole\u2019s cadence off the bat is absurd.\u00a0 Kendrick\u2019s two-line hook is enough to get your grandmother going, and strong features from Lute and DaBaby candy paint a delectable collaboration.\u00a0 (\u201cI woke up for some money, ayy, lil’ bitch\/Too many opps in here, tell me who you with, ayy!\u201d)<\/p>\n
