Pusha T “My Name Is My Name” Release Date, Cover Art, Tracklisting & Stream

    Earlier this week, Pusha T revealed that his solo debut on G.O.O.D. Music would be titled My Name is My Name.

    In a recent interview with HipHopSince1987, Pusha explained his title choice. “Basically, I was trying to pick a title that embodied who I am as an artist…and I wanted people to understand that Pusha is everything that I really, really am.”

    Pusha elaborated on the source of inspiration for his album title. “Actually, it’s a line in ‘Pain’ where I actually say ‘My name is my name.’ And of course, that line comes from Marlo Stanfield in the series ‘The Wire.’ It’s one of the more prominent catch phrases he said during the end of that series.”

    “He was just basically saying, ‘I am who I am. This is what I got. I stand on my name. I live this,'” he explained. “And if you know anything about his character, he’s young, brash, amongst a lot of heavyweights. But he didn’t care about any of the past or history. He was like, ‘Man, I’m out here to get my money at all costs. No rules, no regulations. I’m here to compete.’ I just felt like that really embodied my presence in the Rap game.”

    1. Man when i was a kid i loved Pusha but now im older i just find hi mad corny always going on about cocaine and shit dude is like 35 and his brother already exposed him

    2. THIS NIGGA DONE FELL OFF. THIS FLY THINKS HE ALL REAL AND TOUGH CUZ HIS MANAGER SELLIN DOPE ON A NATIONAL SCALE..BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU NIGGA?! U AINT DONE SHIT IN IT AND YOUR RAP PERSONA IS BASED ON COKE STORIES AND SHIT..LMFAO THIS IS PATHETIC..AND NIGGAS WANNA TELL ME ROSS IS FAKE?

CMON SON STOP THAT NON SENSE AND GO MAKE SONGS WITH JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE AGAIN ..IT SUITS YOU BETTER AND YOU LL SELL MORE THAN BEING JUST A COCAINE STORY TELLIN NIGGA EVEN IF U WAS NEVER IN IT….FUC THIS FLY AND ANYBODY THAT LOVES HIM

    3. pusha ur turning into a fuQ ni99a 4real let it go champ stop throwing rocks at the hip hop throne jack!!! stay in your lane & keep writing for yeezy & them boys bcos your cd is never gonna drop LOL

    4. One of the dumbest album titles I ever heard. These rappers are all out of ideas. I used to think he was kinda nice, but I think he’s trash now. This guy never has anything to talk about except for his fake ass cocaine stories. Nigga, you ain’t Nino Brown and you never were. You and your Brother were backpackers in middle-class Virginia, so stop frontin’. He’s in the same category as Fabolous…niggas full of witty one-liners but nothing to say. We’re not laughing at your dumb ass metaphors anymore. You need to try to evolve as an artist and as a man. At least your Brother is trying to be himself. Nobody believes you homey…your relevance among these dimwitted new school fans is hanging on by a thread, that’s why you’re trying to stay involved in beef and get some of that desperate ass limelight that all these fools are scrambling for. Your real fans got tired of your fabricated stories of being a cocaine kingpin.

      1. smh.. dude really was movin weight in VA.. his whole family been hustlin since hs grandma (literally).. and fab is really a goon..

      2. The only reason you believe that shit about his family and his Grandmother is because he said that on a song. And Fab is NOT a goon. He’s a pretty boy that’s not even that pretty. If you think these niggas are thugs, then you never seen no real thugs. These niggas are private school alumni. The thing is, these rappers in the industry are around hollywood douchebags, yes men, and conniving A&R’s that all make them THINK they’re thugs, and they really start believing it. It’s like, you can be a regular nigga in a city school, but then when a regular nigga from the city goes to a suburban school all of a sudden they feel like the hardest dude in the school. That’s what these rappers are. Regular city niggas, not nerds but definitely not thugs, but they’re cold stuntin’ around all these suburban rap fans and industry shit heads. They do not front like that in the streets, believe me. You can’t even find these niggas in the streets unless they’re surrounded by more bodyguards than the Pope. Peace.

      3. And another thing. Let’s say for the sake of conversation that he WAS moving weight. Does that mean that’s all he can talk about now? I know a lot of drug dealers, but guess what, they still do OTHER things in their life. They still have other things to talk about. As a matter of fact, most of them prefer NOT to talk about selling drugs, because it’s not a noble act that one should be bragging about all the time. Okay Pusha, we get it, you used to sell coke. What else you got? I mean, between your trips uptown to see ‘papi’, what else did you do in the mean time? What else did you experience in your life? There’s gotta be SOMETHING else you can talk about. Politics, religion, women, shit nigga at this point I’d rather hear you talk about golf than regurgitate one more glorified cocaine saga.

      4. The great Jay-Z not only made a press op visiting his old stash house (while buying someone’s menorah), on “3 Kings” he speaks on whipping coke. I presume a businessman of his stature has plenty more to rap about than sitting next an actor he doesn’t call back (De Niro) or watching a baseball team (Empire State Of Mind).

        While you think of that, search the Village Voice archives for the Fab story and see how flawed your assessment is. You should ask yourself why is the recording industry bent on investing in money, drugs and hoes music. Smarten up Sensaye.

      5. To add on, there is plenty of extortion, drugs, community/street involvement within this rap game. You have forgotten the likes of Jimmy Henchman exist. IDK about Pusha, but his manager was big time. Biggs was a part owner of the Roc. You’ve let the media and internet comments fool you into thinking there are not goons and criminals rapping right in front of your face.

      6. Jay-Z raps about other things too and has shown 10 albums worth of creativity and originality in his music. I’m not saying ‘Pusha-T’ should NEVER rap about drugs, if that’s a part of his life then it should be a part of his material, but thats ALL this nigga raps about. I know that there has always been a major criminal element in the rap game and there always will be, but it’s being exaggerated to point now where these niggas need to be checked.

        I don’t need to see footage about Fabolous, I met the nigga in real life, BEFORE he was a rap star and he was just a well spoken nigga named Johnny that was playing basketball and trying to be Mase. He wasn’t a thug then, and he’s not a thug now. You can’t become a thug when you’re in your thirties. Just ’cause you got yes men around you with guns who are waiting for a chance to do you a favor doesn’t make you a thug. It makes you a punk ass nigga that needs other grown men to keep you alive. I think you’d be surprised if you met a lot of these rappers man. They’re frontin’ more than you think. The guys who are the real criminals in the rap world are not in front of the cameras. When’s the last time you seen an active criminal that was TRYING to get on camera? Be sensible homey. The hardest rappers I ever met were rappers that don’t brag about how hard they are. Ghostface Killah, Camp Lo, Saigon, Ice-T, shit even MC Hammer would give it to one of these so-called superkillers in the industry now. Don’t let ’em spook you with their fantastic tales of drug supremacy. They’re lyin’ son. If you spent one week around these fools you’d come back eager to tell everyone how phony it was. They always got people ready to back their stories of the time they did this and that. But you never hear the stories about the time they got their ass whooped or got robbed or got played by some dumb ass chick, or in Fab’s case got BEAT UP by a chick. Shit, if I wanted to, I could put together a video that would make me look like the scariest nigga in the world and you probably could to.

    5. Of course someone of Pusha T’s ilk would use The Wire as a source of inspiration for his music. This guy has never lived has the street life. He is a complete fround. One of the biggest in the rap game. His more talented brother Malice has expolicity stated that neither of them ever sold coke.

      1. Nigga said Fab is a goon LMAO. I swear rap is really bad for alot of you naive mufuckas. Same thing applies with Pusha. Yall claim yall from the hood or from the streets but have 0 street knowledge on how things work with these rappers outside of “giiiiiiirl, i heard..” shit, lmao fucking lames.

      2. dental dam boy the kind of guy that needs to ask his mom for 10 dollars so he can buy a nick bag n then have 5 dollars for food when his boys go to get munchies at the store.. and uses the word swag to bitchs to cover up how broke he rly is.

      1. you my friend have to watch the series ” The Wire”

        was an HBO series and there you will find the answer

    6. Kind of silly using that title for a man who actually had to change his rap name once, cause his old one was too violent for good publicity (remember “Terrar”?) No hate though, I love king push NH… just sayin..

    7. ANOTHER ATTENTION SLUT IN THE INDUSTRY. HE GETS NO ATTENTION WITHOUT TALKING TRASH ABOUT LIL WAYNE, BIRDMAN OR DRAKE.

      AND HE IS FAKE, HE NEVER SOLD A SINGLE GRAM OF COCAINE, I KNOW WHAT I TALK ABOUT AND I DON’T SEE WHY KANYE SIGNED HIM, HE IS THE WORST RAPPER ON G.O.O.D. MUSIC.

      1. he’s fake.. look at ymca. lil wayne was in the boy band hot boyz when he was 14 and aint been anywhere near the streets since. he’s like justin timberlake when he was in NSYNC then went solo and drake played a retard on a tv show. Actually one thing about Drake is he is real, he’s a pussy and atleast he acts like it.

      1. Because everything else he’s put out titled Fear of God has been disappointing, he probably wanna put that title to rest, lol. Pusha’s the shit but on his own he hasn’t lived up to his potential at all.

    8. fuck deze lame ass nigga! nobody can diss da King od Hip Hop Lil Wayne. deze nigga lost da control. Birdman’s crew will find diz hoe ass nigga. fuck Pusha T and errbody who likes em. swag

    9. pusha is kool,,, his humble with his dope boy rapping even if it is fantasy,, rick ross goes on like his flipping 50 boatloads of snow every day !!

    10. PEACE

      Actually Pusha T whatever, Marlo saying ‘My name is my name’ meant he wanted to be remembered as a street legend/hood celebrity, bruh, just like the (fictional) Barksdale (real life) Pappy Mason.
      See cats like you need to invest in your instruction instead of living that illusory industry b.s.

      PEACE

      1. The Barksdale character is based on Melvin Williams not Pappy Mason. Also, Mason was an underling of Fat Cat Nichols.

      2. Never said the Barksdale character was modeled on Papy Mason, bruh.Point is Pusha needs instruction.

    11. THIS NIGGA DONE FELL OFF. THIS FLY THINKS HE ALL REAL AND TOUGH CUZ HIS MANAGER SELLIN DOPE ON A NATIONAL SCALE..BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU NIGGA?! U AINT DONE SHIT IN IT AND YOUR RAP PERSONA IS BASED ON COKE STORIES AND SHIT..LMFAO THIS IS PATHETIC..AND NIGGAS WANNA TELL ME ROSS IS FAKE? U AINT BOUT THAT LIFE TERRENCE…U HAVE A PRIVATE SCHOOL NIGGAS NAME! CMON SON STOP THAT NON SENSE AND GO MAKE SONGS WITH JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE AGAIN ..IT SUITS YOU BETTER AND YOU LL SELL MORE THAN BEING JUST A COCAINE STORY TELLIN NIGGA EVEN IF U WAS NEVER IN IT….FUC THIS FLY AND ANYBODY THAT LOVES HIM

      1. These are actually facts and not lies lol . His real name is Terrence, and he isnt as big as he seems in his dope boy stories.

      2. ^^^ This faggot ass nigga siding with YESSIR. There ain’t no facts here aside from his name. It’s just a big rant filled with hate and lies.

      3. I AM GAY. YES, GAYER THAN dentaldamboy, YEBO (MY OTHER USERNAME) AND JASON COLLINS OF THE NBA. I MAKE DRAKE AND JOJO SIMMONS LOOK LIKE “REAL NIGGAS”

      4. and your hero lil wayne is so real right. kids been in hotboys since he was like 14 and aint been in the streets since. he was basically in a boy band (hot boyz) and now he’s got a solo career. he’s basically justin timberlake and just as hard.

    12. 80,000 firt week. 340k when its all said and done(if that). It seems Kanye is the only one on his label who can generate platinum sells and legitmate buzz. I wonder why he even thought signing this lame would be a lucrative opportunity. I wonder what Cyhi da prince is gonna do when it’s his turn?

    13. YESSIR is my nigga. he says da truth. Pusha T and Good music fans cant call Rick Ross or Lil Wayne fake. dey are more real den deze pussy ass faggots. swag

    14. Wait so Drake and Wayne have ghostwriters..Drake was born into a middle class family..Wayne pays for blood acceptance..and he copied the clipse fashion style in the mid 2000s..Then you have pusha t who is a great lyricist, had an album receive the XXL(one of only 7 at the time), and had a manger and longtime friend go to jail for leading a 10 mil a year drug ring…yet pusha is fake according to you? How much more proof do you need? I guess the absolute only way you ignorant fools will admit he is real is if he goes to jail for selling?

      1. So Drake should have been raised in the ghetto and sold drugs like Frank Lucas? He’s realer than Pusha T simply because he doesn’t pretend to be anything other than himself. Let’s be realistic. If Pusha was really selling that much weight why would he need rap?

      2. Its not about being “real” anymore. Most rappers are fake and they all lie. We just want something that sounds great while riding and something that we can kinda relate too, with a good beat. Name a rapper who never lied in one line… Im waiting… exactly!

      3. I really don’t understand how Drake pretends to be someone he isn’t, he admits in his songs (i doubt you actually listen) that he grew up in a good home.

        Also, every rapper you listen to is fake, none of them are really selling drugs and killing people.

      4. I went to school with drake and the guys was a deadset joke, no friends and he got bullyed constantly, would never touch a drug either, this niggas just a spoiled jew

    15. Pusha had the best verse on Dark Fantasy (So Appalled), he dropped Exodus, one of the best cuts of the year and he tore New God Flow the fuck up, I been checking for him since I first heard Grindin’. Love The Wire, and Marlo my favourite character, I cannot wait for this to drop.

    16. “Drake is pretending to be something he’s not, so he’s not real at all”

      Which is what? I don’t see him doing interviews in bulletproof vests, or doing videos holding Glocks.

    17. Pusha had the rawest verse in the Name Me King song on Jesus Piece. Then he crushed the Wrath of Caine, what more do you want? The album is goin be fire, the dude be spittin. I said I wasn’t buying anymore albums other than TDE, but i think ima have to make an exception for this one.

      1. Wait a minute. What I meant was that I was hoping to learn how to be sweet and charming to women just like him. Want to especially pay attention to the lips because girls love beautiful lips.

    18. GIVE ME A CHANCE
      Youtube is all about finding new artist, & though I been rapping for a while im still consider a new artist. I just want my music heard thats all, im not looking for no record deal, getting famous ‘r anything like that.! so please just spare a few sec. to check me out, & if you like what you heard please SUBSCRIBE so ill know you actually listen & support

      **TURNS ON TYGA**

      1. 1. ME AND YESSIR AIN’T THE SAME PERSON, YOU DUMBASS

        2. FUCK YOUR RATINGS, LOOK AT PUSHA’S NUMBERS, HE BARELY GOT PLATINUM ONCE, IN ERA WHEN EVERY JACKASS HAD AT LEAST DOUBLE PLATINUM ALBUMS. THEY HAD ALBUMS PRODUCED BY NEPTUNES WHO WERE MAKING HITS AFTER HITS AT THAT TIME. WHO COULD FLOP LIKE THAT WITH ALBUMS FULL OF PHARRELL PRODUCTION?

        3. MY NAME IS MY NAME IS EITHER GOING TO BE PUSHED BACK OR WILL FLOP AS A MOTHERFUCKER.

      2. Personally I’d rather listen to a 5 star album that didn’t even go gold than an album that sold 18 mil and is shit like Please Hammer, Don’t Hurt ‘Em…

      3. COSIGN @…?

        id rather bump a beast album that sells 2000 albums then weezys IANAHB2 which sold 400k but is complete SHIT

        when everythings said n done, people are dying fromm old age and your money is useless the only thing u got is your legacy. sure u sold 300k but ppl remember u for droppin shitty albums.. up til now ppl remember clipse as monsters and pusha T..well his album didnt drop yet so ill reserve judgement but if its anythih like wrathe of caine..itll be fire

    20. pusha’s dope as hell. he goes in on every track he’s on. also he doesn’t dress like a fancy pants lil girl like half of hip hop these days. this album is gonna be ill and all the shit talkers know it. just watch

Great to see Pharrell/Neptunes having involvement and The-Dream ain’t a joke when it comes to making music, all his shit is critically acclaimed. That Kendrick track will be interesting, K.Dot has made a name of killing rappers on their own shit but Pusha can definitely handle himself. And getting producers like Just Blaze, No I.D. & Nottz to make up the rest is dope as fuck… 100% will be top 5 of the year.

    23. I’ve been a long time fan of the clipse bruh. Anyone who claims that Pusha sucks might not understand his lyrics and thats fine. In all honesty he has been a worse rapper since joining good music. The we got it 4 cheap mixtapes, lord willin, and hell hath no fury are all classics. Road til the casket drops was also ridiculous, and til the casket drops had some good ones but too many commercial songs.

      I think when he first arrived at good he was still putting out amazing stuff. His verse on so appalled is one of the best in recent years; however, he has since put out pretty average stuff for Pusha T. He hasnt been given a good beat in god knows how long.

    24. Tracklist for Pusha’s album

      1. i sell coke
      2. i sell guns and coke
      3. i love money
      4. coke and guns
      5. its snowing
      6. collombian connection
      7. black mobsta
      8. money coming out my ass
      9. bullets and guns
      10. boss
      11. king of coke
      12. i’m your pusher

    25. HAS HE EVER RAPPED ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE THAN SELLING COKE, COUNTING MONEY AND BUSTING GUNZ? HE IS REPETITIVE AND BORING AS HELL. WHY DID KANYE SIGNED HIM? I REALLY DON’T SEE ANY POINT. ALL THE CLIPSE ALBUMS SOUNDED THE SAME, THEY BASICALLY SOLD THE SAME ALBUM WITH SAME FORMULA SONGS AGAIN AND AGAIN, NO WONDER WHY EVERY ALBUM FLOPPED HARDER THAN EACH ONE BEFORE.

      1. ok give it a fuckin rest.. we understood you when u posted it 5 times already in the same blog, on top of that you addressed it a few other times under different names..we get it you dont think pushas nice.. he dont care and noone who fucks w pusha cares if u dont like him..fuck off

      1. dont over heat your computer reloading this hhdx article so you can rewrite different posts hatin on this dude, makin it seem like ur 10 different people smh

      1. yeah including you, pasty ass white bitch tryna talk mathematics n shit i am the statistic king NIGGAAA!!

      2. not rly sure if u noticed but the same IP addresses would be for ethe ppl hatin on pusha..theres like 1-2 ppl here going under different names 2 say the same shti about pusha and his songs.. they do it in every post about pusha..why. if you already hate the dude why u on his posts?

    26. long time pusha/clipse fan. def will peep this album if its like wrath of caine ill be good. and ill cop it. i only buy albums worth buyin now adays bec so much shit gets released ill def listen on youtube before i spend money on it but ims ure pusha will deliver that fire.

      the same dude or 2 guys keeps hatin and is workin overtime to deliver 20 posts dissin pusha under different names- get a life

    27. All of the pathetic Pusha T stans have resorted to accusing regular HHDX posters of posting under multiple names. Guess what you fucking morons…it’s not just a few people making anti Pusha T comments. Get this through your heads…most rap fans don’t care about Pusha T and don’t buy his music. That’s why he’s poor and lives with his brother still.

    28. I am very confident now that this will infact be the best rap album of 2013. It isnt even saying that much, and Pusha hasnt been as good on good as he was before, but still. He will have stellar production and his lyrics are always on point. Magna Carta and Yeezus are not much competition, and I have yet to hear big sean or drakes but well see.

      1. The fact you would even mention Big Sean or Drake as potentially having the best album of the year really tells me all i need to know about you. Faggot.

      2. Even if she a girl she right. Jay n Ye’s albums were both average (compared to history) and any “hip-hop head” who dont listen to modern mainstream need to wake the fuck up. K-dot, Sean and Drake to name a few run laps of rappers in the last 20 years

      1. why would you even compare the 2..different artists and material..just respect the music for what it is..music..comparisons are killing hiphop

      2. Doesn’t need to be as good as Kendrick’s to be worth listening to… although with this tracklist I doubt it will be.

    29. Goodness….the suspense is getting ridiculous and the expectations are riding really high with all these setbacks! I’m a huge fan of both his group/solo stuff but Pusha really put pressure upon himself.1.

    30. Gucci Mane is the realest rapper outthere:

      – this nigga throws bitches out his car
      – shoot niggas dead
      – beat niggas up.

      Gucci aint no fantasy nigga like:

      – mobb deep were 12/14 years old when they met at the school of arts,
      – nas escobar lol nigga only had a ticket for parking his car wrong
      – 2pac never gangbanged
      – rick ross is a legend but not a streetlegend but a foodlegend
      – ice cube was bullied at school and this guy calls himself a G?
      – Eminem says he hate gay people but did a song with Elton John???

      Gucci aint nothing to fuck with

      Fuck the YMCMB and Ja-Rule Army they cant hang with the Gucci Mane Army!

      1. Can someone get this black person to ever shut up? Just wondering how he has time between eating watermelon and picking cotton all day….smh

      2. if you ask me the realest niggas are the ones who get away with their crimes and dont keep getting caught doing dumb shit and going to jail every year.

      3. The jokes on you bigot, that troll is white like you! lol

        Watermelon and cotton? It’s 2013 you still studying that 1900’s klan pamphlet?

        All on a Black music site, commenting on n!ggers, spending your life moments, but let me guess, you like the music, huh? lol, another confused soul.

    31. Pusha one the best mc’s around but people don’t respect lyricism much these days haven’t heard a single from this unless he puts out sum thing that really blows up I cant see this selling more than 50 thousand first week.

      The bar code is dumb Kanye is a fuckin lame u know it was his idea chipmunk faced fuck-boy

    32. i like the 2nd cover. finally a release date pusha has been banging out some good music so hopefully when i listen 2 the album itll be good enuff to buy

      to much shit out for the last 5 years to just buy it bec back in the day u knew u were getting a good album no matte rwho dropped..now there might be 1 good album for every 10 artists who drop..esp on majors

    33. my roomate’s sister makes $79 an hour on the laptop. She has been fired for 5 months but last month her income was $16165 just working on the laptop for a few hours. look at here… http://www.Cafe44.com

      how can u put MMLP before encore and you havnt even heard it yet? but i mean encore was so shitty that it wont take mucht o beat that so i guess so

    34. GUCCI MANE is the realest rapper and heres why.
      1) all other rappers rap about being gangster shooting and killing but they havent done it.
      2) Eminem raps about killing he hasnt.
      3)Jay z raps in open letter about sending shots he hasnt.
      4)Nas raps about how he is a queens thug but he wasn’t.
      5)Most of the rappers rap about stuff they havent done yet you all support them and say its real rap.
      6)When rick ross does it you all claim he is fake and say its fake rap.

      This shows that hiphop fans are hypocritical and all these real hiphop fan wanna be’s are just some unjustified haters whose opinions are just as irrelevent as the swag fag rapper fans.

      GUCCI MANE KILLED A MAN HE WAS A DRUG DEALER BEFORE RAPPER HE HAS STREET CREDENTIALS HE IS THE ONLY RAPPER THAT RAPS ABOUT FACTS THERE FORE BIG GUWOP IS THE REALEST RAPPER IN THE RAP GAME AND THATS A FACT!

      1. lol he killed a man by accident, shooting while not even looking!!!! WOW you country dudes are sad pathetic clowns!!!!! LOL

      1. …The only unique thing about this is that the second cover has Pusha blacked out, you can go to Best Buy and see a ton of rap covers with the rapper on them.

    35. By the look of the album cover, it looks like it’s gonna be a very dark and artistic album… that’s what’s up. I’m tired of all these blan radio club songs. Let’s bring it back to Hip-Hop.

    36. what Marjorie replied I am dazzled that anybody able to get paid $5697 in four weeks on the computer. Read Full Report… http://www.Cafe44.com

      the last song on his first album mentions how big of a wu-tang fan he is…just saying. the song’s called thank me now – probably my favorite joint on that album

      1. ^this one right here is a real weirdo.

        We skip your comments, hhdx deletes many of them, you’re not funny, you babble utter bullsh*t, all that racist stuff yet you be right here, flipping thru articles of Black people.

    37. pusha t is good rapper and a horrible artist. all his mixtapes suck, he can’t craft listenable sings for radio or riding around, and his beat selection is always off. he got signed to good music as a ghost writer and he’s still getting jerked over there. the album will not be good, it won’t sell shit, and push will go back to thinking he’s more important than he is releasing lousy mixtapes.

      clipse is dead and pusha t is a washed up bum.

      1. how you know he getting jerked, you be there? if you there why you commenting on hhdx instead of handling that business?

        thought so.

    38. Everyone sleeping on the barcode concept, the album is called MY NAME IS MY NAME, the bar code is stating he’s a name not a number…. a human being not an animal, it’s a demand for respect and equality, saying he’s as good as anybody. quite dope if you know what the concept behind the barcode is.

      1. pusha was on dj skee tv’s show and skee asked him about the bar code. pusha’s answer to what it meant was 100% different than yours haha.

    39. pusha t is pushing 40 years old and he’s still a loser in rap. he’s had the neptunes and kanye in his corner and he’s still a loser in the eyes of the major label system he so desperately wants to be accepted by.

      this album is sure to fail. 2 solo tracks on your solo debut? he can’t do the heavy lifting and he’ll do anything to sell, in turn destroy himself and go further into the red to cover feature costs. you thought the clipse had a hard time selling records? wait til this junk drops. never again. at least the clipse were putting out good music aside from the last album. pusha t has zero solo records of note and has been pushing this solo act for years. i smell commercial flop and critical failure coming a mile away.

    40. Pusha T’s album will be one of two things: a) a big flop or b) he pulls a 2005 Andruw Jones and blows everyone away out of nowhere. While I hope it’s the latter, judging by the tracklist I think it will be the former

    41. wow he only got 2 songs without features thats wack as fuck he might as well have just made a clipse album if he cant hold down a song on his own

    42. Pusha T had to secure some our friend’s help, Rick Ross just to be relevant. He will bomb while Rick Ross will be richer. Realest boss in the suburbs, all platinum albums, and a terrific crew that beats out NWA. BAWSE!

      1. His last album is at 4x platinum, selling 436,000 copies. He’s also the realest nigga alive and I’ve seen him in crime, shooting other gangstas.

      2. A damn lie. His last album went gold like his other albums; none of them went platinum. He’s the fakest nigga alive and never committed any crimes at all. Also, his “crew” will never beat out N.W.A.

    43. This is going to be the next Flop Montana. That’s a term I made up where an artist has an album with almost nothing but guest feature and yet still bombs badly.

      1. french had big radio hits though like pop that and probably 3 times the features… so this cant be considered a flop on the same level

    44. disappointed seeing the track list, but i guess i shouldve seen it coming. recycled numbers on the board. the same washed up, tired features everyone on a major label has used over the past couple years – jeezy, 2 chainz, big sean, future, ross. certainly looks like a stab at commercial success rather than at making a classic album. at least liva and pharrell are on there.

      i have a feeling hear ye him is going to wind up being better than this

    45. rick ross on there? fuck i guess i wont be supporting pusha t.

      lol who am i kidding i wasnt gonna buy that shit anyway

    46. Gucci Mane = realest rapper ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      – T.I. snitch to the feds
      – Young Jeezy was never bmf
      – 50 Cent snitch and was never in jail but a youthcamp
      – Game was never a banger but lived the life of his brother in his lyrics
      – Nas Escobar never sold drugs
      – Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
      – Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
      – 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherfucker. Oh and i like his music so fuck you.
      – Mobb deep are the biggiest pussies in rap they are short as midgets and keep talking this g shit but never did g shit.

    47. pusha t looks like a cock roach on the cover.

      someone hit him with a raid can and get him outta here.

      bout to flop and disappear. all these features can’t save him. people don’t give a fuck about pusha t. internet geeks that download albums and stalk instagram pages don’t count. happy 40th push.

      1. Damn, you’re a total fag. Pusha prob won’t sell that much but that muthafucker is no question one of the realest/illest rappers in the game. You’re fuckin stupid. I just don’t get why he’s doin’ tracks with Officer Fat Fuck.

      1. hell hath no fury only had 12 songs. and so does hear ye him. and till the casket drop didnt have many either. it has nothing to do with kendrick. #dickrider

    48. As excited as I am about this project I have very serious doubts after peeping the track listing. Far too many features for my liking. Time will tell…

    49. Pusha, dog….You’re really killin me, bro, with this Rick Ross collabing shit. I don’t understand how a real dude like you would make music with a phony fuck like him. WHY?? It makes you look bad, can’t you see this?!?! What are you doing, man? You’re killin me over here! I’ve always respected you and wanna keep that respect, but why do you continue to do songs with that fake fat piece of shit?

    50. he got two songs with himself and the rest all features? smh this album might be soft, i fuck wit pusha but those all those features tho

    51. I feel y’all on the features but really future Kelly dream pharrel and Chris are probably all singing hooks and really don’t count as true features…that’s 7 solo tracks

    52. i dont get why ya all mad, nowadays 70% albums are loaded with features, 4-6 tracks solo..

      Hold On Ft Kanye West & Rick Ross

    53. Exactly. Dr Dre 2001 had someone on like every song. A lot of these features are for choruses. People need to shut the fuck up. This will be a great album. Clipse always delivered and so will pusha. Only thing i’m a little upset about is the 12 track album. Thats ok if theyre all perfect like hell hath no fury, but weve already heard Pain and its not perfect. Who I am has about 4 bars from pusha which is a joke. I guarantee you they leave some songs off that are better. Kanye is kind of losing it and thats a shame for pusha t.

      Kanye and pusha together in like 2006 wouldve been insane. Kanyes production is just going downhill and is his taste.

      1. HAHAHA how you gon’ compare chronic 2001 to Pusha’s new album? Last time I checked, Dre ain’t a rapper; the nigga hardly ever even writes his own bars!

    54. so man features and the only ones orth checking is kendrick and pharrell

      rick ross… hahahahaha

      pusha just exposed himself as a joke

    55. so pusha loves being vocal about how shitty wayne is then he goes and puts rick ross, 2 chainz, jeezy, big sean, and future on his album? yeah, that doesnt seem at all hypocritical

    56. True that shit, thats some poppy ass bullshit. He should come out more independently without the feature push; it so played. He needs that to solidify himself as a top tier hip-hop artist.

    57. College dropout and 2001 had a shitload of features. Who cares? Most are doing choruses. You people need to stop being followers and think for yourselves. Have a little perspective. Pusha t doing all his choruses and all three verses on 12 straight songs wouldnt be great.

      1. tell the artists to stop being followers and try something different. It seems like every major album that comes out these days has the same who’s hot right now features. i expected this from Pusha though.

    58. On first glance it has too many features. Though I’ll give him a pass on some of these in which the feature is probably only supplying the hook.

      Still, personally I’m disappointed to see Chris Brown, The Dream, 2 Chainz and Big Sean, they’re all fucking lames.

    59. I have to space out their names because HHDX won’t let me post tem without it saying:
      “Error Submitting Comment
      You have been temporarily blocked from posting.”
      Y E S S I R, Y E B O, Ja Rule fanboy, the Drake stan (y o u n g s t a), D E N T A L D A M B O Y, S O I C Y B O I, B E A V I S & B U T T H E A D, B O Y, E y e C o n t r o l, F R E S H 2 D E F, B o b y a h e a d, R I C K Y R O Z A Y, the Anally Pussified Anon Guy (Anonymous & :^) who says “Everything You Say Is BULLSHIT LIES” and “Haha Good Joke”, Q u o t e m a n, is the same pathetic fuckface immaturely replying, cosigning and arguing with himself (as other trolls) to look convincing because he is a waste of fucking space in real life.

      This comment section is a humongous piece of elephant shit now with the same bullshit posts and arguments being made by little ass high school/middle kids everyday. Only very few posters here are legit now. Fuck Generation Z, Alpha, and almost anyone born after 1994. Go the fuck back to your KanyeToThe, LilWayneHQ, Tumblr, HotNewHipHop, WorldStarHipHop, Twitter, OddFututeTalk, TrShady, or any other faggot-like website you came from. Between bullshit TMZ-esque articles and its editors and the retarded “hip hop” stans, it’s safe to say that this site (along with much of the Internet and the world) is officially dead and pointless!

      1. woah tell us why you mad?

        First of all I’m me and ONLY ME

        Second of all unlike them lames I ain’t on all day I’m a part time troll you should know that. I’m the anti-troll I will hack if I got to there

        Three dentaldamboy/drake runs rap is my son

        Four Praise Ja Rule

      1. it dropped in 2004 its called Untold Story maybe should…..WAKE THE FUCK UP YOU AINT FUNNY BOOOOOOO LAME

        WHO’S MANS IS THIS??????????

      2. JRA ethered you, lol

        where them “ja the formed the universe in his loincloth” comments? balance yo sh*t up, you 3 steps away from big ghost.

        now take that with you out my foxhole I got fvckboys to shoot at. 1

    60. Looks like Pusha & Friends Presents. There’s some shitty features on this. There’ll be at least 4 filler tracks is my guess.

    61. I don’t know what Pusha talking about, but this is actually from the Bible. It’s essentially what God says about himself in Exodus 3.

      “Moses said to God, Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they ask me, What is his name? Then what shall I tell them?

      God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: I AM has sent me to you.

    62. THAT COVER IS RIDICOLOUS, WHAT DOES IT EVEN MEAN? AND THAT ALBUM IS GOING TO BE JOKE, HE AND GOOD MUSIC ACT LIKE THEY ARE CREATIVE MULTITALENTED GUYS AND THEY ARE, ALL EXCEPT PUSHA – HE IS GOING TO RAP ABOUT COKE ON ALL OF THIS SONGS AGAIN AND AGAIN, THE SAME DAMN TOPIC AS HE COVERED WITH CLIPSE OR RE-UP GANG.

    63. when the critics praise him and the intelligent listeners(as you have to be to understand the clipse shit) go crazy, you will all still be listening to lil wayne, 2 chainz, and jay z new shit.

      This album will not be as good as hell hath no fury or lord willin, but honestly if its got 6 or 7 great songs itd be more than I could say for other rap albums today

    64. as Mario answered I am inspired that anybody able to earn $9239 in one month on the computer. did you see this site link——–> http://www.jobs47.com

      To find a mountain path all by oneself gives a greater feeling of strength than to take a path that is shown.

    65. Too bad they’ll buy your album to hear the OTHER artist on it.

      Maybe if u had Drake feature.. It might go gold

      Yours truly,
      Your Name Is Lame

    66. as Travis answered I am impressed that a student able to get paid $9540 in a few weeks on the computer. this page… http://www.Ucan3.Com

      This faggot has a pink tuxedo. You dont see Gucci walking in a pink tuxedo. Probaly Nas had a after party with Mr. Cee!

    67. dem thin azz braids is funny as hell. i cant see him selling more than 30k 1st week. does pusha t’s fanbase buy cds?

    68. The thing I never understand about features, why not get features that are not featured on every other album? We already kno what Ross, 2 chains, Lil Sean and Meek are going to say. Go get Raekwon, Cube, Ortiz, J Cole or Scarface that would be a breath of fresh air. Nobody wants a feature with 2 Chains, smh these artist just dont get it. Pusha T making a big mistake.

      1. don’t forget to blame the fans who keep clicking on to those names you mentioned

        and for rap music purposes, calling big sean lil sean is a diss to the original lil sean

      2. MAYBE BECAUSE MOST FANS ARE LESS OR MORE CASUAL AND THE WIDER MASSES WILL MORE LIKELY RECOGNIZE 2 CHAINZ AND RICK ROSS THEN SCARFACE AND JOE ORTIZ ? GET IT GENIOUS ? ALSO ICE CUBE IS NOT SELLING MAJORLY ANYMORE IN 2013, WOULD BE OK STILL TOUGH AS LEGEND FEATURE. THINK ABOUT IT IN A BUSINESS WAY, THINK MARKETING. We hiphop heads are bored of Nicki, 2chains and Future on every song, but the masses mostly only remember those names, the less famous the feature is the less people will recognize him.

        THEY DON’T GET ? FAIL NIGGA. THEY PROFESSIONALS.

    69. This nigga on that Game type shit. The features and the name dropping destroyed Game. No matter, what Games career will always be tarnished by names and features.

    70. I sold dope in the sleet in the hail and the rain
      Just so you can say too many features? O what a pain
      All the years that me and my brother struggled thru the winters
      We still giving to the poor, pitching snow white dinners
      Christmas and Thanksgiving, we made sure them junkies was eating
      So that means Jodeci ain’t the only one’s feeding
      You fans are ingrates, philistines, and also backstabbers
      Everything you do? From talking out to the ass to talking ass backwards
      All I wanted was to make it on my own
      And maybe move out from under my brother’s home
      I just wanted to make the best music
      And you stabbed me in the back. Et tu, Brutus?

      1. whack, stop pretending being somebody you’re not.

        Also pusha sold crack to fiends but now is the good guy cause he bought him dinner

    71. Random topicRemember Ems worst album Encore. Well, the album shouldnt of sounded that bad. Check out this site. It has an interesting twist on the album. It also tells how to download how the album should of sounded. It will give ya something to listen to until MMLP2 drops. Check it out

      http://www.eminemalbum2014.com

    72. WOW. Not impressed by the track-listing. WAAAAYYYY to many features. As dope as everything looks/sounds, Pusha does not have enough solo joints for his first solo album, EVER! too bad to, Pusha had a lot of promise for this album. I guess he’s pretty much the Killa Cam of GOOD Music :/

    73. 10. Wiz Khalifa

      Wiz has been a rapper that I have followed in the past few years. I love a lot of his songs but a lot of his material is the same. Other than weed, women, and living the good life, Wiz Khalifa doesnt have much more to say. Theres no substance in his words, but not everyone needs or wants substance. His delivery and the ability to throw a party by rapping is what makes him popular, not his ability as a rapper.

      9. Bone Thugs N Harmony

      If you dont listen to a lot of rap, you wouldnt even know enough about this rap group to dispute this ranking. I do like them a lot, but I thought I needed to have at least one overrated rap group. Their flow is actually one of my favorites but most rap groups have great flow. Thats the point of forming a group. There are some songs they have that have some great lyrics, but in most of their songs, their verses are incoherent. That being said, their lyrics dont mean anything to me. This group goes way back and theyve got too much credit for how mediocre their entire career was. Anything after The Art of War was garbage, but people still love them because they werent full on rap. Their more recent albums have been criticized for being extremely violent. Strength & Loyalty, released in 2007,was tight but thats only because it had Mariah Carey, Twista, will.i.am, and many others. When you put BTNHs R&B rap flow together with someone like Mariah Carey, youre bound to get something great.

      8. Drake

      Why couldnt he stick to playing Jimmy Brooks on Degrassi? Take Care was just leaked and thats really the only reason hes on this list in the first place. The album isnt bad, but why are people so obsessed with him? I thought he was a teenage girl fad, but I had four personal friends tell me that hes their favorite rapper. Whats up with that? His flow and delivery is odd at times and I get the feeling that hes trying too hard. Most of his lyrics are about how no one believed in him and now hes on top. That type of material only gets you so far in the rap game and sooner or later hes going to need to pick up a drug addiction so he can give every one some fresh material. If it wasnt for Lil Wayne, Drake would still be trying to differentiate himself from Jimmy Brooks. Drake gets big names to get big results and thats why everyone loves him so much.

      7. Method Man

      Dont get me wrong, Im all about Wu-Tang, but the fact of the matter is that Method Man hasnt done anything since Wu-Tang. This one doesnt even need to be broken down. He just doesnt have the musical talent that some people think he does. None of his material is different and he still delivers his lines with the same scratchy voice as he did in 1993.

      6. Puff Daddy/ P. Diddy/ Sean Combs

      As the business man of the list, I had to make sure I drew the line between great rapper and great producer/ promoter. Look, Puff changed the rap game and helped many influential rappers make it big who otherwise would have never had a chance, but thats the only reason he was popular himself. Think of any song that you like that has Combs in it and tell me if any other artists are featured in it. He used HIS artists to help his own rap career. Type in P. Diddy on Youtube and look at what the first five options are. All five are songs that feature some other artist. When you listen to Diddys lyrics, you get the feeling that he definitely didnt write them himself, and his material is so cliche that it angers me to know people put him on Biggies level. Diddy has some great lines and uncanny ability to produce great songs but hed be nothing without those surrounding him. His only real musical creation worth noting is Ill Be Missing You, but of course thats also because Faith Evans kills it on the chorus.

      5. Gucci Mane

      He isnt looked at as one of the greater rappers of all time, but too many people like him for him not be on this list. Lets look at one of his more well-known songs, Lemonade. The first verse is,

      My Phantom sittin on sixes, no 20s in my gun

      Your Cutlass motor knockin, because it is a lemon

      My rifle Georgia peaches, but you look more like a lemon

      These sour apple bitter bitches, Im not fuckin wit em

      Im truly stupid paid thats just how I feel today

      At no point in that verse does he rhyme one word. Obviously all rap fans dont need a lyrical poet to meet their needs, but come on Gucci, rhyming gun with lemon is just too far.

      4. Snoop Doggy Dogg

      Snoop is definitely an icon of rap. Hell, hes been in the rap game for 20 years now. My problem with Snoop is the fact that hes been rapping songs for all twenty of those years. Other than a few singles here and there, the only good songs youll hear by Snoop are on Doggystyle or when hes featuring on The Chronic. Unfortunately, Doggystyle was his first album so since then, one could say that he hasnt recorded one good album. Look, Snoop Dogg is one of my favorite rappers but thats because of his personality. He started the for shizzle language for gods sake. Not to mention his never-ending crusade to get marijuana legalized is just oh so admirable. But when it comes down to how good this rapper has been throughout his career, Snoop just doesnt make the cut as one of the best rappers ever as he is presumed to be.

      3. Lil Wayne

      What is there to say about Mr. Carter? Theres just too much to say. I love the fact that he is always trying to experiment with new sounds and that most of his music is free. Love it. But that doesnt make him a good rapper. He possesses many of the attributes above but it seems he isnt able to combine all of them to make one great album. And I always get that feeling that hes trying to change the game too much. Whether its his rock anthems or his hood ass shit with Hot Boyz, he tries too hard to get you to change your lifestyle to his. I always feel that sense of unsatisfaction after each Carter is released and that has much to do with the fact that he is a man of many singles. Ive been known to bump some Wayne every now and then but when you deem yourself, best rapper alive, you better get ready for some lash-back.

      2. 50 Cent

      For me, 50 Cent represents all that is terrible in the new age of rap music. He was the pioneer of writing catchy hooks and shitty verses. He was no desire to rap about anything unless its about having sex or robbing people. Other rappers have some sort of basis to rap about. Eminem has his 8 Mile roots and tears himself apart every time he spits a verse. Kid Cudi has his inner demons and drug addiction that make his lyrics powerful to the listener. The only powerful thing thing that comes out of 50 Cent is his bellowing, G-Uniiiiiiiiit. The only song that I ever put on repeat by 50 was Candy Shop (the least creative rap song of all time), but hey, it was catchy. Ill give 50 Cent kudos in one category, hooks. Ill take you to the candy shop, Ill let you lick the lollipop, go head girl, dont you stop, keep going til you the spot (whoa), is pure genius for a hook but the rest of the song is horrendous. Ill break it down for you now, baby its simple, if you be a nympho, Ill be a nympho, in the hotel or in the back of the rental, are just some of 50 Cents lyrics in Candy Shop. Hes the type of rapper whom I can finish every one of his lyrics because he uses no puns or any play on words for that matter. The only thing worse than 50 Cents rapping ability is his acting in Get Rich or Die Tryin.

      Tupac

      For all those people about to come to my house because you got thug love for Pac, hear me out. Let me just start out by saying this, All Eyez on Me is still one of my favorite albums of all time and 2Pacalypse Now isnt too shabby either. The problem I have with Tupac is that by many peoples standards, he is the best rapper of all time. I would put him in my top ten favorite rappers of all-time easily but hes not the best and that is why he is on this list. Tupac Shakur is the most overrated rapper of all-time. Seeing it is Tupac, Ill give him the decency to break it down for you. Flow/Delivery- All Eyez on Me is by far Tupacs best album because he lays his rhymes down so effortlessly and all the words seem to fit perfectly. Bottom line, he was amazing on that album. But lets not forget, that same year OutKast released ATLiens and that album is a masterpiece as far as flow and delivery go. Now here is where most people make their argument on how Tupac is the best rapper of all-time; lyrics and storytelling. Dont get me wrong, Pac is one of the most influential lyricists that rap has ever seen but hes just not the best overall. When Pac released Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z in 93, people started to realize that he wasnt some ordinary thug from Oakland. The thing most people dont realize is that in 93, Enter the Wu Tang was released by the Wu-Tang Clan which I highly regard as the best lyrical album of all-time and rap group by the name of A Tribe Called Quest, released Midnight Marauders, which I believe is the best story-telling album of all time. Im not saying that you have to agree with me but I only ask that you think about other rappers of that time. If Tupac hadnt been killed, he wouldnt be the legend he is today. Because of that legendary status, in my book, he is the most overrated rapper of all-time.

      1. 4. Snoop Dogg you made a mistake… the fo shizzle language was started by E-40 in the Bay Area, and Snoop took it and started using it

      2. Anonymous – take care wasn’t the album that just leaked it was NWTS

        I know dude same guy posted this like a week ago and i told him the exact same thing

      3. who the hell made you a hiphop expert i hope is your opinion cause i disagree with some with snoop 50 cent and pac and bone

    74. Pusha T is trying to eat, let him eat. Music is all about features nowadays, name one hit song without a feature right now. name it

      name it

      name it.

      i will give you time to look for it unless you rock pop.

      1. Tyler, J.Cole, Kanye, Drake, KRIT, Cudi off the top of my head have all had well placing solo songs this year. Thats just 10 seconds off the top of my head.

    75. Pusha got bars but he couldn’t carry this album as solo as everyone wants. People saying there’s too many features yet less is more and I want only the best Pusha verses, plus most the features look like hook/singers only. Only really about 7 or 8 guest verses gonna be on this depending on the track formats.Still gonna be twice as many Pusha verses.

    76. This was hot. I’m 3 minutes through so far and im putting this right behing drake’s new album. Pusha T coming back to the top.

    77. ppl complaing about his features but look at Ross every album he came out with has 95% features.. but some how he ones of the best in ppl eyes when most ppl only give his album a second look because who has on it

      1. I’m not a big fan of Ross but he sounded a little bit better on this track. Actually seemed like he’s rapping on this track instead of the normal “Grunt than Halfassed verses” that he normally does

    78. People complaining about the features when most of them are hooks only. People complaining about the number of tracks when really it has the same amount of tracks as NWTS (The Year’s Most Overhyped Album but compared to the rest of the letdowns that came out this year it’s the best) & GKMC, only difference is that those two had deluxe editions. People can’t appreciate shit these days. You can tell the album’s gonna be great just by the snippets. The nigga got Joaquin Phoenix, An actor, to produce a track. Joaquin Muhfukaing Phoenix produced the first track off this album & it’s surprisingly dope. MNIMN just might be Rap’s Surprise AOTY. Hopefully it’ll sell like it.

      1. Drake’s album had 2 out of 15 songs with guest rappers, this one has 5 or 6 songs with guest rappers out of 12. 15% compared to around 40%. Big Difference.

    79. GUCCI MANE is the realest rapper and heres why.
      1) all other rappers rap about being gangster shooting and killing but they havent done it.
      2) Eminem raps about killing he hasnt.
      3)Jay z raps in open letter about sending shots he hasnt.
      4)Nas raps about how he is a queens thug but he wasn’t.
      5)Most of the rappers rap about stuff they havent done yet you all support them and say its real rap.
      6)When rick ross does it you all claim he is fake and say its fake rap.

      This shows that hiphop fans are hypocritical and all these real hiphop fan wanna be’s are just some unjustified haters whose opinions are just as irrelevent as the swag fag rapper fans.

      GUCCI MANE KILLED A MAN HE WAS A DRUG DEALER BEFORE RAPPER HE HAS STREET CREDENTIALS HE IS THE ONLY RAPPER THAT RAPS ABOUT FACTS THERE FORE BIG GUWOP IS THE REALEST RAPPER IN THE RAP GAME AND THATS A FACT

    80. Recycling lyrics (40 Acres) and two tracks (Pain & Numbers on the Board on a 12 track CD. I expected more from Push …

    81. 1. Kanye West’s Yeezus is da biggest flop of 2013
      2. Pusha T will be da biggest flop of 2013
      3. GOOD, Roc and Shady Records are over
      4. Drake will sell 1 milli first week
      5. Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter V will sell 1 milli first week
      6. YMCMB and MMG represent true hip hop

      swag

      1. has lil wayne even announced tha carter V. I dont even think he should do that because he is not who he used to be. Tha 4 previous carter’s have all been his 4 biggest hits. He is not capable of that anymore. Just retire weezy, tha carter 2,3,4 are some of my favorite albums ever but you suck now.

      2. “. Pusha T will be da biggest flop of 2013”

        everyone knows hes gonna outsell Ace Hood and Rich Gang, the real biggest flops of 2013

      3. french did over 50k so thats probably around where pusha will be, maybe im wrong cant see him selling more than 2 chainz though (64k)

      If you think I forgot something or have a disagreement please comment.

    83. these are some long ass snippets…and because of that…I can tell this isn’t going to be as a great as I thought

      1. my classmate’s step-sister makes $84/h hourly on the internet. She has been out of a job for 6 months but last month her pay was $20791 just working on the internet for a few hours. Read more on this site..>>>>
        g00.me/Zgm4c

    84. I love frank ocean i think he is a fantastic artist & potential legend in the music making industry, chris brown is alright; i don’t really judge an artist by what he/she has done in the past or their public image, i get my opinions about them as artists by the music they make so the fact that chris abused rihanna in the past does not make me like his music less then i do now so don’t label me as one of those non-intellectual public sheeps who judges artists by what they’ve done . After reading the whole comments section i’ve come to understand that Mr.Brown’s supporters seem more of the “speak first think later” type of people & Mr.Ocean’s fans are the type of people who are mature, calm, collected and are less likely to bash on another artist because they are in completion with their favourite one’s. Getting to know the details before speaking on certain subjects is key to make a valid point i believe. Alot has called his coming out as a public stunt which in all honesty i believed was true at first (thats how i knew of him) but that was not his intention, there is always a story behind the music he makes and his coming out is just apart of those; he wrote that to make some of his tracks where he mentioned a man as opposed to a female as the love interest make sense (making an open letter is a better way to address real life situations then singing about it) after streaming channel orange for free weeks before he released his debut album “Channel orange”, people and critics alike noticed him using the word “him” instead of “her” to call a person he holds romantic interest in so he wrote his story to clear all the speculations surrounding him being a gay man and made it clear that he is (he is bi-sexual). i hope that clears the question about people who think he posted that post on tumblr for “public attention” to promote his album at the time. When their careers have ended i truly believe it will be frank ocean who will make the mark (Bigger impact) on the music industry decades from now, he will be viewed as a musician who has elevated/pushed music to another scale of composing & story telling whilst chris brown will be known as a pop icon who has sold millions of music, garnered awards & topped the billboard list time and time again. Stop the hate frank ocean & chris brown fans and start appreciating the fact that you are able to witness your favourite artists make music. Peace

    85. not going to lie..i was hoping this album would be dope but in the back of my mind i knew it wouldnt be..and these snippets confirm that

    86. this is okay i expected a bit more i though pharrell and kanye should have shoulder most of the beats along with nottz but for the most part its okay.

    87. lol, opinions off of snippets

      like reading a paragraph and talking about the whole book

      something really wrong with y’all

      1. horrible analogy unless this hypothetical “book” is only a couple pages long..consider the length of each snippet measured against the length of the respective songs, then rethink your analogy and try again.

      2. Realize most people have short attention spans so those snippets need to grab them or else they won’t care. That’s the world we live in.

    88. am I the only one that notices that this nigga has a feature on EVERY SONG but 2 damn dude u gotta prove you can make a stand alone album 2 or 3 features is cool but 10-12 seriously?

      1. I do not wAnt him singing on his choruses.. Leave it to the cbs and Kelly’s man.. But 12 tracks is not a full album..

    89. The streets use to tell us when an album was a classic like illmatic, OBFCL, Ready to Die, Get rich or Die trying. Now you have Hipsters and people who have only been listening to hip hop for 5 years and the so called Hip Hop Nerds, since it’s the cool thing now, tell us what is a classic. Some of these people are Hipsters and Hip Hop Nerds and their insight of Hip Hop Culture is through concerts and Laptops from their safe Condos. And might never understand why people in Oakland love E-40, Gucci Mane in Altanta. And don’t even have black friends that might give them a real understanding of black culture, so now we have less knowledgeable journalists who have the means and connections writing about Hip Hop.

      These good old days of the Source and XXL are gone when they got their information from the streets. Not from Hipsters who love East Coast rap and Jay Z, but can never understand a Devin the Dude and Scarface from the South.

      1. I am white and i agree with you. But you should know nowadays the world is like a ghetto. Maan, where i am i saw people dying in the streets because of the cold and misery and people trying to sell horse to lil kids. So don’t come here talking about blacks are the only ones that understands how is like to live surrounded by human misery

    90. PUSHA T IS GARBAGE. CANT PICK A BEAT TO SAVE HIS LIFE. WACK FEATURES. FAIRY TALE RHYMES AND CORNY ASS HOOKS. THIS ALBUM SOUNDS WACK. WORSE THAN CLIPSE LAST ALBUM WHICH WAS BUTT. PUSHA T IS GONNA FLOP SO HARD AND THE MUSIC IS GONNA SUCK TOO. TALK ABOUT A WASHED UP BUM AND A MISSED OPPORTUNITY. NEPTUNES WERE HOLDING THIS GUY AND HIS BROTHER TOGETHER, WITHOUT THEM HE’S A NOTHING.

    91. Pusha is one of the better freshman of the new waive of artists over the last couple years, and once his debut album comes out, EVERYONE is going to be wanting to sign him, trust me. He’s got bars, style, looks (handsome, braids) and he might go gold first week. Everyone in my subdivision listens to him, and most kids at my school. Hopefully Pusha signs with MMG or someone big because he deserves it.

    92. Im a Pusha fan but this doesnt sound good. Dude is getting lamne with the lyrics, flows and beats. Maybe he could better retire. Dude cant hold an album by his own. Go make a clipse album

    93. as a young money groupie bitch with no accounting experience, I can confirm that pusha t’s album will be a classic and drake’s album blows.

    94. 1. Drake and Lil Wayne are my real best friends forever. I’m with them all the time.
      2. Drake is so cute, and Lil Wayne is the sexiest rapper alive.
      3. Drake’s ‘Nothing Was the Same’ will sell 1 million in its first week
      4. Drake will outsell Eminem, Jay-Z, Kanye West and Pusha T combined
      5. Lil Wayne’s ‘Tha Carter V’ (2014) will sell 2 million in a week.
      6. Drake and Lil Wayne are the most popular rappers on the planet
      7. Eminem, Jay-Z and Nas are boring.
      8. Kanye West is trash
      9. I’m not gay
      10. Wayne and Birdman kissing is father and son moment. It’s not gay behavior, it’s normal.
      11. YMCMB members and employees are not gays.
      12. Birdman is the richest hip hop mogul of all time.

      YMCMB we run da rap game. swag

    95. upto I saw the bank draft which said $4192, I didnt believe …that…my cousin woz like truley erning money part-time at there labtop.. there uncles cousin has been doing this for under nineteen months and as of now repaid the loans on there apartment and got a top of the range Nissan GT-R:. additional reading http://www.Fb39.com

    96. Everyone complaining about the features needs to calm down. The majority of features are performing the hook only. Album sounds dope judging by the snippets, a little disappointing that we have heard almost half of the album already, he should not have released that many tracks prior to the album release. I’m pretty sure I heard pain a year ago. I will reserve final judgement for when I hear the record as a whole.

    97. damn i had high hopes for push,,,but this shit dosen’t sound cohesive,,,,the songs don’t clique together,,,to make the project sound complete,,,,he spits, but his content is shallow and baseless

      i feel niggas should make an album cd for a cause,,,, not just because,,,,

      this project is non-cipher kid

    98. Ppl sayin about all the features but if u break it down at least 5 of them are just tuna be singing the hook. U won’t notice it like u think when. Listen to it

    99. he def bit mase flow on that one song wit kelly rowland. mase needa make a comeback like the 90s over again ja rule mase busta dmx etc

    100. before I saw the paycheck which had said $4463, I have faith that…my… best friend was like truly making money in their spare time from their computer.. there uncles cousin has done this for less than twenty two months and resently paid for the dept on their appartment and bourt a great new BMW 5-series. useful link http://WWW.FB39.COM

    101. If Pusha is reading this, I just want to let you know that you’re 36 and you’re still rapping about cocaine, on every single fucking song. I don’t understand how Kanye backs up this faggot.

    102. LOL….im not cosigning it…..but why are jokers complaining about his album talking about slangin….when the ninja told yall off jump his album name is called “My Name is My Name” for a reason…..and even had a video that’s been posted on this site explaining the title for those who still didn’t get it…lol sigh….too funny

    103. Remember the Encore? It was disappointing to say the least, the album could of been better though. Here is a site that tells you why and gives you a way to hear the album the way it should of been heard. Not to mention give you something to listen to until the MMLP2 drops.

      http://www.eminemalbum2014.com

    104. WAYYYYYYYYY TOO MANY FEATURES smh got 6 other niggas rhymin and like 5 niggas singin on your album wit only 12 tracks -______- Push can spit but he fuckin up his project with a lack of solo songs on his DEBUT sound like he’s tryn to draw in other ppls fans smh shit sound iight from the snippets so ima show love regardless but smh at all the features.

    105. This pussy is the most over rated “rapper” today. Simple bars and no flow, using a bunch of 12 year old white boy features to sell units because he knows his flow won’t sell shit.

    106. As an accountant for YMCMB I can confirm Pusha T does not want to go to war with YMCMB. Wayne already said that if Pusha disses one more time, he will go Jackie Chan on him. The YMCMB army is built for war. Wayne a certified gangsta. He got 3 tear drops, did a bid on the island and all that. Wayne ethered rappers and even caused permanent damage to Dez Bryant’s knee. Pusha is wack. All Wayne has to do is throw him a rock and Pusha will fuck his life up again!

    107. some people call wayne a pop star.. like no ceilings was pop? carter2 was pop? lil wayne is pop when he shows up on every kids bob, and i don’t think his lyrics gonna make the disney channel cut. it sounds cute when y’all say it.. but it doesn’t make sense.. wayne is no where near pop.

    108. How can someone listen to this dude only niggas worst than Pusha T are Pimp C, Inspectah Deck, MC Ren, Bizzy Bone, and Waka Flocka Flame

      1. 2001 was a compilation album helmed by Dre. MNIMN is a debut solo album. They cannot be compared in any way, shape, or form.

      2. No. 2001 was a Dr. Dre album with a lot of features. Jusst like MNIMN is a Pusha T album, with a lot of features. and the Chronic was Dre’s debut solo album, which also had a lot of features, but once again that doesn’t make it a compilation album.

      3. Album sucks, all the hype you would’ve thought this cat could’ve came a bit harder. PLEASE DO NOT COMPARE TO CHRONIC 2001

    109. Its so funny looking at the pusha t haters profiles on twitter. If theyre from Florida, Miami in particular, they will hate. If they are huge Drake or Wayne fans(this can be seen sometimes on profiles through other posts and such), they will probably hate.

      For TODAYS RAP, Pusha is one of the most consistent. Hell Hath No Fury, Lord Willin, and all the re up gang shit was great. Stop hating on everything dude. Take a minute, sit back, listen to that Clipse shit. you will then see why Kanye spazzed like that, and you will see why your favorite rappers put pusha t among their favorite rappers.

      1. ive never heard any rappers list pusha t among their favorites, kanye might say that might thats his artist so what else would he say

    110. The only song that sounds interesting is track 11….. and well…. we know future will ruin that.

      Throw away album.

      1. Pusha T is without a doubt the most accomplished lyricist signed to a major label. REAL hip hop heads need to get behind this album. My Name Is My Name will be as good as expected or even better based on the snippets. Shout out to Danny Brown whose album “Old” is being released on October 8th as well. It’s going to be a good day for hip hop.

      2. “Pusha T is without a doubt the most accomplished lyricist signed to a major label. ”

        this is a hilarious statement to be made about a nigga who raps about nothing but selling and cooking cocaine.

    111. My name is my name says it all. People like Push keep hip hop alive with their amazing concepts. Now we will see if the critics know their stuff when judging this album. All the way in Africa and i seem 2 know more than these Americans.

    112. up to I saw the receipt which was of $6215, I be certain …that…my neighbour could actualie making money in their spare time at there computar.. there aunt had bean doing this for under twelve months and by now took care of the dept on there villa and bourt a brand new Buick. go right here… http://www.Fb39.com

    113. how can people look at tracklist and say if itll be good or not, without hearing the actual music? funny thats a hater in pure form.

      so far everything push put out been fire.. king push is my shiiit.

      i wish blocka was on the tracklist tho

    114. yall know what to expect from push. either u like him or hate him if u hate him keep it moving im diggin it tho. if by now u dont know he only talks about dope then u ben under a rock for the past 10 years nigga.

    115. man this album would have been really damn good if it wasnt for the weak, poppy production it kind of ruins it in a way. Pusha was on point though. After a few listens i would give it a 7/10

      “i might sell a brick on my birthday, 36 years of doin dirt like its earth day”

    116. album stinks. wack features wack beats lazy flows and bullshit lyrics.

      all that and it’s gonna FLOP harder than a whale dropping from the sky.

      pusha t is finished. 40 yrs old and his debut album is wack as fuck with all that major backing. tried hard to be a radio nigga and it’s gonna blow up in his face.

      looking like a worm with braids on the cover. guys all DONE.

      1. wayne and drake suck. so does pusha t.

        pusha t is really pushing the envelope featuring chris brown on a pathetic attempt at delivering a cross over hit. the dream. rick ross. every feature here is designed to sell records, not make good material. he’s trying hard and it’s not working. soundscan will make it clear to pusha t. instead of flopping with a good album he will flop putting out a weak album. the internet will care for 1-3 days and move on to some other garbage.

        drake and wayne know their fanbase. they know how to market their garbage. pusha t has a small group of fans that expect a certain thing. he will never crossover. he’s been in the industry over 15 years. no neptunes. no chance.

      2. what do you expect tho hes signed to kanye ofcourse he gonna put out a trash album full of weak ass mainstream features

    117. Myspace? REALLY? Y’all gonna make me go to fucking Myspace to stream this album? NO THANKS. I’ll wait a few days.

      I didn’t even know myspace was still around LMAO

      1. white hipster faggots? LOL

        whos your fav rapper just curious

        Pusha t gotta be one of the hardest mainstream rappers out

      2. Anonymous:
        one of 15,000

        good work pusha white hipster faggots into kangay are feeling it bruh

        shut te fuck up monkey

    118. Sad that we have so many tasteless rap fans on this site now. If you listen to any current hip hop, you would not be upset with this album in any way. It is much better than anything coming out these days. If you dont fuck with the clipse, you have either never heard them or are TASTELESS like I said

    119. The content of this album is just super repetitive Id rather listen to Juicy J, Meek Mill, Ransom and 2 Chainz. Those latest efforts run circles around this. Just in subject matter alone.

      1. fuck outta here Juciy J, Meek Mill and 2 chainz? LOL pusha t aint for you you’re too stupid for this shit

    120. Just Damn,

      In a year ladled with many major releases, Pusha Ts, My Name Is My Name some how manages to buck both trends and every other major release, to be become one of best records released
      this year. In many ways it seems to be Yeezus done right, while the rest reaks of raw undiluted metaphors and lyrical skill. But where Yeezus and Magna Carta Holy Grail failed, My Name Is My Name gets it so right. Pusha T has undoubtedly cemented himself as a true quality driven artist with this LP.

      Every track feels carefully thought out and is mechanically sound, while all featured artists are utilized to their max potential, enhancing both the mood and style of the album. (Especially Kendrick Lamar on Nosetalgia) All of the beats are both creative, while still folding into the album nicely. Particular Standouts include those done by the Neptunes and Good Music.

      Pusha T is quite effective at painting a lifestyle good bad turned to artist hungry to reach the top of the game. While Yeezy, excellent production serves as a suitable backdrop. The different between this and Yeezus, however is that Pusha T, truly retains the lyrical ability to back it up.

      It is difficult not to reap this album enormous praise, when it so perfectly delivers on exactly what was promised.

      Perhaps the only real “issue” with this LP are the questionable additions of MC; “Big Sean” and “2 Chainz” neither of which can even come close to holding their own lyrically with Pusha. Both of there versus feel unintentionally awkward and funny on and all but introspective and fascinating album.

      Yet, neither of them are truly enough to detract from the album as a whole.

      Surely, a classic in the making.

      A 4.5 out of 5.
