I've tried to start listening to Hip-Hop like 4 different times, but I never end up "getting it". There's about 5% of really good stuff that I like and the rest is just... meh.
He just has a crush on Donald Glover (completely justified, I should ad).

really? weird. This morning I was looking through my torrents and saw I had downloaded that whole album, then I come on here and tbob posted one of them. Either a big coincidence, or it was tbob that recommended them or something. was probably drunk and I don't remember, idunno.

Well it couldn't hurt at least. Although I should say I listened to those Wiz Kalifa songs you posted and I did not like that at all, so anything along those lines is pretty much out the window, I feel.
so no #basedgod pretty much?
What did you think of that tonedeff song I posted earlier?

I dunno, it sampled a really sweet piano tune but the song didn't really get anywhere.
Really, my biggest problem with hip-hop is that I don't tend to focus on the lyrics until I've heard a song multiple times already because I'm generally much more interested in the melody. And the majority of all Hip-Hop (that I've heard anyway) is very centered on lyrics while the melody is usually simple and repetitive, so I get bored too quickly to ever get in to the lyrics. And, tellingly, much of the Hip-Hop I actually do like is the kind with more interesting melodies. For example, B.O.B
EDIT: Also, by "melody" I don't exclude vocals.

Bitch I've been down with the Gambino since he released a free EP that I can't find anymore a few years ago.
Think it was Idk that first brought him up over here, I actually didn't know about Camp until he started posting songs from it here.

This is true though. He is a magical man.

Actually I'm totally the same way. What they do with their voice plays a huge role for me on top of the beat. Have you listened to Cudi's pursuit of happiness? Make sure to listen to the whole thing, has some really good Ratatat bits.
On my phone but I'll link you some good stuff when I get home, since I'm sure Ark will post different things than what I have in mind.

Music is really hard because you can't judge it as quickly as videogame and movies. I mean you can change opinion over time about those too but with music that's pretty much a rule rather than an exception for me. If I made a top 10-20 albums list it would contain almost solely of stuff that I though was "good" at best the first time I listened, and some stuff I didn't care for at all.
