    Anyone heard of this kid? Young white rapper out of Pittsburgh just released his first mixtape on Rostrum Records and its getting rave reviews in the states.

    http://www.datpiff.com/Rostrum_Records__Most_Dope_Mac_Miller__KIDS.m143884.html

    I downloaded it myself and have to say I am quite impressed. Tracks like "Kickin Incredibly Dope ****", "Nikes on My Feet", "The Spins" and "Kool Aid and Frozen Pizza" are very enjoyable and that was just on my first listen.

    He is talented and predicted for big things, check him out.

    Fantastic free download. few of you probably have it already, saw a few of his videos posted in a young MC's thread a while ago.

    well worth 3 minutes of your time and 57.7mb of your interwebs.

    Cheers, this isn't too bad

    Nice beats ( really like how he flipped the Lord Finesse - Hip To Da Game beat on Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza ) but I dunno he's doing the exact same thing that the likes of Curren$y, Starlito and Wiz are doing, except he isn't near those guys - still not bad for an 18 year old

    Yeah i first heard about him from Wiz Khalifa's twitter. Suggestions that he will be involved with Taylor Gang and they are from the same area so they are bound to work together soon and working with them should be good for him.

    Really loving The Spins, Nikes on my Feet and Koolaid & Frozen Pizza. My standout tracks from the tape.

    I made a thread when i downloaded K.I.D.S. There are opinions in there.

    Not mad about his flow, need to listen to K.I.D.S though. Smoke DZA, Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa makes superior stoner Hip-Hop.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    He is class.

    This.

    One of my favourite rappers at the moment. Getting bigger and bigger all the time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    He is unreal, really love his style. Pity he didn't come to Ireland as part of his European tour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,342 ✭✭✭Bobby Baccala


    hes awful


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,997 ✭✭✭Shapey Fiend


    Nice beats. Decent flow. Stupid content. Clunky metaphors. Annoying videos.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger


    Been listening to his stuff for a while now.

    His beats are quite good but I'm not overly gone on his rapping style tbh.

    The beat to Nikes on my Feets is fantastic though


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,734 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    I like Mac Miller, but some of his stuff is very forgetable. There are about 7 songs from Best Day Ever which are really good. The rest are just average.
    I think he has a great flow and has something to say, he has cut down on the tweed references which i like.
    On paper, i shouldnt like him. I was even showing my missus some of his videos and she couldnt understand why i like him.

    His new track off upcoming mixtape '92 till Infinity'. Bound to go down well here as its produced by DJ Premier.

    Not bad at all, I think he has done more stuff with Premo for the Blue Slide Park album as well.

    Didnt know he was dropping a new mixtape either.

    I quite like that tbh

    Nice chilled beat behind it and his lyrics seem better than usual imo

    This kid is great, first heard about him when he released "Donald Trump" earlier this year, have his 3 most recent mixtapes in my iTunes and listen to them all the time. He gets better and better, I think his album will be great, really looking forward to it and the new mixtape too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 160 ✭✭YungJoshy


    Check out his track "Snooze" that my fav.

    Nice. Love that track too.

    Outside, Ride Around and Best Day Ever are probably my favourites.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,048 ✭✭✭Da Shins Kelly


    He's gooooooood. So many great young people coming through in hip hop right now. Exciting stuff.

    Do you not find him mad cringey though? His delivery is bad enough but he drops some proper clunkey lyrics that make you just wonder how the **** anybody listens to him.
