Does anybody know who’s in the group?

Supposedly Droog, Hommy, Fahim. Not sure if it has been confirmed.

Droog is for sure. Mach has been in videos and pics in the studio with Muggs n Droog. Just not sure about who else. Im expecting some insane features too (outside of the 3 of them, if Fahim is involved)

And just like that the new clipping is my most anticipated album currently

 

[dhodo]

Damn, why have I been sleeping on clipping.?

CLPPNG is a fantastic album and the rest of their stuff is hit or miss imo, but this new one has me really excited for the new album. The Benny feature seems out of place but I'm here for it.

 

[dhodo]

CLPPNG is a great g-rap album. Wriggle has some dope experimentation. Splendor & Misery is a really cool concept album. Havent heard Midcity but I heard its it's cool.

What does g-rap mean? If I Google it I only get Kool G Rap .

There's a lot of info on the album on Sub-Pop's site, I think a lot of folks here will be excited to read:

Their third album for Sub Pop, There Existed an Addiction to Blood, finds them interpreting another rap splinter sect through their singular lens. This is clipping’s transmutation of horrorcore, a purposefully absurdist and creatively significant sub-genre that flourished in the mid-90s. If some of its most notable pioneers included Brotha Lynch Hung and Gravediggaz, it also encompasses seminal works from the Geto Boys, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, and the near-entirety of classic Memphis cassette tape rap.

The most subversive and experimental rap has often presented itself as an “alternative” to conventional sounds, but Clipping respectfully warp them into new constellations. There Existed an Addiction to Blood absorbs the hyper-violent horror tropes of the Murder Dog era, but re-imagines them in a new light: still darkly-tinted and somber, but in a weirder and more vivid hue. If traditional horrorcore was akin to Blacula, the hugely popular blaxploitation flick from the early 70s, Clipping’s latest is analogous to Ganja & Hess, the blood-sipping 1973 cult classic regarded as an unsung landmark of black independent cinema, whose score the band samples on “Blood of the Fang.”

Sounds like a clipping. Album for @Believer101.

 

[Jmcg85]

Anyone cop that VMP common sclusie

 

[dhodo]

Gangsta rap. The album explores the idea of making an experimental g rap album without using the word "I" while the character's ego gets bigger and bigger until eventually collapses completely.

Oh, cool, thought you meant something else.

 

[ITrustMyGuitar]

Supposedly Droog, Hommy, Fahim. Not sure if it has been confirmed.

Mach and Droog are for sure involved. Considering Fahim hasn't Tweeted about this, I'm guessing he's not a part of the group and it's just them but I def expect to see him featured.

 

[ITrustMyGuitar]

Earl retweeted this new album. Pretty weird.

I like this. IIye also goes by Pink Siifu and Ronee Sage and is a pretty interesting (and prolific) LA artist. Not surprised Earl likes him, they have a similar sonic palette, IMO.

Found this Jeff Weiss article on him...

An Interview with Pink Siifu

Max Bell chats with Pink Siifu about growing up in Cincinnati, dropping out of college, and his prolific output.

Does anyone know if these will be widely available or only from their store?
I don't want to miss this but would love to save on international shipping costs...
