August Story Suggestion Thread

Dope idea yes!

kind of emo kind of white girl

The Self Sabotage/The Many Many Many beefs of Azaelia Banks. Would probs take soooo much research, but her attitude is just off the chain negative I feel you would compile it in the most classy yet petty way 😎

You should do a video on why 808’s and heartbreaks is one of the most influential albums of this generation

What is Too Short actually up to ?

Where did the Old head vs New head debate comefrom?

Love this idea. Most of Dre's shit has been ghostwritten since the NWA days.

The Joe Budden v Jay Z story above would go dumb hard. I’d also love to see one about Beast Coast in New York. Story about Pro Era, Flatbush Zombies and The Underachievers. That would be an absolute BANGER. Also good job on the X video bro. That shit was sooo good.

The history/industry of ghostwriters, I was just listening to snoop on the breakfast club where he said that jay z actually wrote “still dre” which made me go “how many of my fav rap songs are ghostwritten?”

An in-depth analysis into the persona's/era's of The Weeknd

Considering Wileys cancelled how about Kendrick Lamar story?

Defo. Wayne is 100% my favourite rapper of all time. Always love studying him in detail

Aye this is the most unique suggestion I've had in a while. Let me do a bit of background research on this and see if I can work an angle!

Arthur

100% need one on him soon

Arthur

ah man I really want to do a Wiley story ASAP. Such a bummer he's made these nasty comments! But definitely a great idea

Arthur

ayeeeeeeee

Arthur

oh yeah, and on the topic of rap albums in development hell, ofc u can’t forget about detox, i would love to see a video on how that kept getting made and unmade and ultimately shelved. anyway i’ll stop now 😅

They can literally be 4 min long you know so it’s not too time consuming 👌🏾

You know I was thinking would you make a second channel later on down the line and call it INFO LORES make that like a DJ Akademiks/ drama alert music channel then the main channel like it is, music/ hip hop history channel? I really fucked with the INFO LORES skit but I know you a busy man just wanted to know what you thought about it 😅😅

i hope u do eventually get around to doing a bio on aaliyah, but also about the incompentant bullcrap by barry hankerson at blackground recs after her death, p nasty and wild shit there. also i would like to see a video on the whole wiley vs. dizzee beef and maybe also one about the neverending quest for zach de la rocha's solo debut album, if that isnt out of ur wheelhouse. much love <3

Would love to see something on Lil Wayne, he has so many story lines. The shooting when he was a kid and the cop that saved him, his impact on rap today, beef with bird man, sex drugs rock and roll etc. The guy has been putting out hits since 1999!

I agree 😂 I would take time off work just to listen to that story with no interruptions. Possibly throw some dame dash in there 🤔

A little out of left field, but would be dope to hear about Higher Brothers and them trying to navigate both the politics of record labels and of the Chinese Communist Party. Talk about some opps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rILKm-DC06A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsQCNtCH2sc

The godfather of grime!

He already did one about the origins of drill and Chief Keef.

The chicago rap scene you should do a series where u go over every rapper in depth and go over the gang politics

Jay-Z and Joe Budden

Nicholas Jones

How about Wiley as the pioneer of UK Grime (he even got knighted in 2018). Could throw in his patronage and later beef with Dizzee Rascal and to certain extend Skepta and Stormzy.

Ayy
