i'm just billdifferen

Oh man, here we go! I really hope y'all brought like 3 pairs of headphones, a canteen of water, a sleeping bag, and about 30 dollars to pay the high electric bill I'm about to cause you, because today, we're about to take a deep dive into one of hottest music scenes of 2022:  CLUB MUSIC   Whether you're calling it Jersey Club, Philly Club, Bmore club, or whatever the hell else, it's hard to deny how crazily popular club music has become on a national, and even international, stage. There's been many factors that have led to the boom of this young dance music genre, however, I think that the most vital catalysts of club music have been its undeniable presence on TikTok and the promising wave of club rap that is spreading rapidly throughout the US and beyond.  First, if you don't have TikTok, I wouldn't call you a technological dinosaur, but I would say you are missing out on how a lot of music is getting popular nowadays. Club music on TikTok is a damn me

 man, y'all are already probably like: 2021 seriously feels like it has been the shortest and longest year ever. So much has happened. Some good. Mostly bad, but I think the saving grace for me this year was how much damn good music that was given to us. Even though every single publication and their mama are listing the same 30 albums/tracks/artists over and over again, the real ones know how much good shit we got over the year.    The one big star of 2021 for ME has honestly been Jersey Club music . If you haven't heard any Jersey Club shit this year, you either don't know me good enough, live under a fucking rock, or you just not a good person (I didn't make the rules there). I feel like it is the most popular it has ever been, thanks to stuff like Tiktok, but at the same time, it is pushing its sound into territories it has never seen before, making it seriously one of the most interesting music scenes in the world right now. I did a piece earlier in the fall about

Y'all.....I couldn't even tell you how long it took me to come up with that horrible ass title 😭     I listen to a lot of damn music. Always have. Probably always will. As a result, I am always on the search for new sounds. Back then, you had people sitting criss-cross-applesauce in record stores going through boxes of records, hoping they can strike gold, but nowadays, in the internet age, almost every single day feels like the gold rush. You just have such a vigorously constant stream of music coming from all parts of the world in almost every device around you nowadays. Because of that, you have loads of these new age crate diggers searching far and wide for the coolest music in the world. I guess I'd like to consider myself one of those. I love "digging through crates" on the internet. While a lot of the sites of my youth, like DatPiff, aren't as active as they used to be, I still have me my long-time saviors Soundcloud and YouTube to aid me in my eterna

   2021 got too much music. I quit. I actually hate music now.    No, but for real, 2021 has graced us with so much good shit in so many different genres. That's why my dedicated ass sat here and listed down 100 of the best of the year. Somebody has to! But, since we have a 100 here, there won't be a whole lot of writin', but I got links to all of them, so whatever you like here, you got easy access to it. But yeah here we go: 100 of my favorite albums of 2021.    100. Full of Hell - Garden of Burning Apparitions ( grindcore/power electronics/noisy ) Spotify | Apple Music | Bandcamp 99. LUCY - The Music Industry is Poisonous (Massachusetts weirdo bedroom pop) Spotify | Apple Music | Bandcamp 98. Mustafa - When Smoke Rises (beautiful singer/songwriter Sampha-like soul) Spotify | Apple Music 97. BBY GOYARD - The Secret Lies With Charlotte 2 (crazy white boy plugg) Spotify | Apple Music | Soundcloud 96. UNiiQU3 - Heartbeats (Jersey club queen making her most sophistica

It's been a little while....but WE BACK. Here's some stuff that's been occupying my mind this last month...              Again, What The Fuck is Going on in Jersey Now you know damn well I was going to bombard you with about 5 hours worth of club tunes for this little ass roundup, so don't act all surprised here. It's really hard to get a moment of rest with these club producers, as it seems that none of them have a "chill the fuck out" switch, because these folks don't stop pumping out some of the most ridiculous shit on SoundCloud. First, it seems like there's a contest going on in club music right now where crews are trying to see what's the most amount of people they can put on a track before the listener's head explodes, and I think Majin Krew might be in the lead right now with this 8-man/woman WWE Elimination Chamber match of a MegaLab track "South Park 2." Dude....... What the fuck. This 6+ minute surreal experience t

Actually following up on my word and doing more than 1 of these? - Insane.    I think y'all know the drill now, so here's some stuff I've been treating my ears to this past week and a half. Here we go.... 645AR IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER 645AR · Unorthodox (SenseiATL) It is really hard to fathom that I first heard this dude over 2 years ago now, with Bible & A K. That seriously was like a "B.C. to A.D" type instance for me, because the moment I heard that now iconic, absurdly shrill cartoon voice from the Atlanta native, every single thing in my life had an entirely different meaning. That song alone caused me to find anything made by him, and from there, I surprisingly learned that he wasn't born with that beautiful voice. 645AR's previous "pre-squeak" work when most of his shit was being put on Trap Daily is arguably just as good as his current output. Clearly influenced by Carti , you can still see AR slowly evolve into the enigma

 Album art is crucial. Happy 20 years to the GOAT   Seriously 60% of the time, I will listen to something depending on its cover art. I feel like, yeah the music is like the main part of all of this shit, but at the same time, the album cover is a very big part that brings the piece of art altogether. If that album art is shit, and/or nonexistent, there's a possibility that I won't listen to it. Tough critic right.... 😂 But seriously, there's a lot of people that just go into the album art itself, and I always feel like there's never enough people showcasing the work of those artists, as we get like 450 iterations of the same list over and over again, so I just wanted to share some of my favorite art of the year. No order really; they're all sick. Big love to all of these people involved. But yeah, here we go!!
