@@MaidenHelllhis contract was up and he is moving now how he wants to with no one above him to control his direction or sound. Why work for someone when you can be your own boss? No Shady artist other than Em has had longevity under the imprint. 50 had a few record years, Slaughterhouse broke up under the imprint. Yela did his 4 albums and his contract was up. There have been multiple other artists i can’t even name that got signed and never went anywhere. Shady records seems like where artists go to get shelved. 50 and Yela have been the only truly successful artists to have come from Shady. Successful, different than talent. They have all had talent.
RIP Mac bro he would absolutely be up there with Kenny if his addiction didn’t change him. The growth from K.I.D.S. to Swimming was insane. He’d most definitely be on top today
Dude, a lot of his leaks dated from Late 2017-Summer 2018 are legit some of Mac's best music. He had to have had to hard time deciding what to leave out of Swimming. I wish he'd got to do the trilogy speculated to have been in the works.
Mac Miller’s musical evolution almost brought me to tears when I realize how much I missed out on because Loud just wasn’t for me and then hearing swimming years later Gah damn that’s what you call an artist all the way
swimming dropped in the midst of a breakup I had. Senior year high school shit it was due to my drug addiction, never thought I’d ever find anyone again lol it was pretty sad I even started doing fentanyl that November in 2018 as my Xanax bar dealer said ‘I don’t have xanax anymore I have dope though’ I’d always say no I’m good until I caved. Anyways I dropped acid the day this album dropped and it was just on repeat while I was driving around. Completely unsafe I remember being in traffic and seeing all the cars moving backwards so I put my car in reverse just to shake my head and realize I was tripping out lol. Anyways this album played for hours and hours, I did play acid rap by chance as well that was a mixtape for my generation really, but it didn’t feel right really. Swimming just hit me man I wasn’t even paying attention to it at times, I threw it on my phone while coming up on the tabs, only 90ug each I took one and another an hour later so I think it didn’t really count or do anything. The album didn’t get me through the breakup in fact my addiction spiraled at that point until I got a DUI at 18, went to my first rehab. When I heard he died I was so drunk I just didn’t even care, I mean I cared but it was more like an oh shit no way I thought he was doing better and honestly I was way too focused on putting myself in a coma every single night to be able to sleep, but it was upsetting. I live a new life now I was given a second chance after being in a coma from a drug overdose last year, I was supposed to have brain damage or be on oxygen for the rest of my life. I ended up waking up from the coma and went back to my sales job and was successful, and am still in sales. Took a little paycut, they put me on suboxone I’ve been clean for over a year now, I don’t even count the days or even realize I hit a year until I saw the date in November. Fentanyl free. My toxicology was Xanax and Fentanyl, I was also on research chemical benzos like clonazolam which my girlfriend forced me to quit thank god bc that would have fully put me out and I’d be dead for sure. Anyways I have a new life my new girlfriend doesn’t understand when I put in earbuds and listen to swimming, or faces. Only at certain times I’ll listen to it but I consider faces and swimming to be Macs ‘magnum opus’ as they call it haha. And I’m not a huge Mac fan either, 2020 till now even for me was all detroit/flint music, LA music, Mac sometimes. I never was a mega fan but he is a legend in his own right and I appreciate his contribution to not only hip hop but music in general and making music that makes me….. feel. Which I don’t like feeling lol.

The fact that Mac was in this list is crazy. Honestly probably the reason he put so much effort in his music. Big Krit and Kendrick are no jokes to have as contemporaries.
2016 is the best in terms of influence and artist success. Pretty much everyone from that class is still doing numbers to this day, except for Desiigner but 'Panda' is considered a timeless classic. That whole class changed the sound of hip hop. Say what you want about those boys but they did something on that day.

2016 is better all around. Mac and Kendrick and a few others are the only ones with careers, while everyone in 2016 still has a career and is going strong. I live Kendrick, he is my favorite rapper but him mac and a few others doesn’t beat all of 2016.

Kendrick by far was and is the best of that Freshman Class. They rightfully put him in the middle of that cover photo. So much has changed since 2011 and that was just 13 years ago.
nah, apart from Lil B it was mostly trash. this was the era where a lot of rappers started "sharing" the same kind of "sound" and the music sounds dated because of it. Kind of like Migos and mumble rap. That style will not be looked upon fondly. not because it's bad, but because it was copied and overdone.
@Pedro Esquivias No, that was 2014 until now. Rapper that came out early 2010s were way more original and creative. People seem to forget that there are different subgenres to Hip-Hop, but now, most rap music you hear today is trap or drill music. Besides, the Migos were popping like that during those years. It was like, 2015-ish
Bruh he literally gave damn near every artist he mentioned their flowers. If glazed Kendrick then he pretty much glazed everyone else lol. U Niggas r weird asf 😂
Mac is the only rapper that i was really affected by when he passed, his sound and the way his albums progressed. It feels like growing up too me RIP to an icon.

Lil b the best rapper here 💯💯
You can't be serious right?
@@JIMY414 yes they’re serious. Lil B is top 1 of all time
@@d0m0n33k agree
Lil B is a rapper of all time!
ARTIST*
Lil b is the best one here
I discovered Mac Miller post death, and he became one of my fav artist, that boy was a musical genius.
Kendrick by far was and is the best of that Freshman Class. They rightfully put him in the middle of that cover photo. So much has changed since 2011 and that was just 13 years ago.
Can we all agree that 2010-2013 were the best years for current Hip-hop? I miss those days
Doesn’t seem like anyone really agrees with you 😂.
@@elmokirkwood3969🤣 lmao give the man some likes
nah, apart from Lil B it was mostly trash. this was the era where a lot of rappers started "sharing" the same kind of "sound" and the music sounds dated because of it. Kind of like Migos and mumble rap. That style will not be looked upon fondly. not because it's bad, but because it was copied and overdone.
@Pedro Esquivias No, that was 2014 until now. Rapper that came out early 2010s were way more original and creative. People seem to forget that there are different subgenres to Hip-Hop, but now, most rap music you hear today is trap or drill music. Besides, the Migos were popping like that during those years. It was like, 2015-ish
You can just hear the 🥜 hugging as soon as Kendrick’s description comes in
Bruh he literally gave damn near every artist he mentioned their flowers. If glazed Kendrick then he pretty much glazed everyone else lol. U Niggas r weird asf 😂
Trying to strike a chord ....
Was it cap tho? This was also made before the beef. So if it wasn't true then it definitely is now
I’m so thankful for all my blessings. If love to visit this era again tho.
Mac could really rip it off the top like a g that kid had mad talent
Best cover ever on my mama we love and miss you mac 💎🔥
it’s so good to see krit gettin love in the comments
2016 was a pretty legendary class too.
Meek looks so sweet in that magazine cover
That 2011 cypher was where I first saw Kendrick. It's what had me looking for his music, then I found Section.80. Fan since then.
I Remember this class changed a lot of things the following year after the announcement. Fred the GODSON RIP
THIS SPINS PLAYING THE BACKGROUND GOLDEN RIP MAC 😢
Mac is the only rapper that i was really affected by when he passed, his sound and the way his albums progressed. It feels like growing up too me RIP to an icon.
Based God paved the way man. All these rappers should be payin more respects to em
BIG KRIT DESERVES BETTER
The diggy simmons J Cole beef was a wild time to be alive
Jdub is out here to Support the Rookies. Nice 🔥🔥🔥💪 Nice to see him having a fun time also
Man... That 2011 class was crazy 🤜🤛
Bro this is the perfect vid describing that class
It’s like you’re basically said everyone was crappy after you said this was one of the best lineups
Kendrick in the middle like the star he is 💅🏽😆
