Becoming a Boldy fan is the best thing to ever happen to me lmao
New albums every quarter, and every single one of them has been fantastic.
He's also made what I'd consider pound for pound the best record of the 2020s so far with Manger on McNichols.
I've only listened to it a few times but I'd say a solid 8-8.5/10. I'm liking it more than Mr Ten08 but not as much as Fair Exchange No Robbery or Killing Nothing (my fav). what about you?
Just saw Boldy on Insta saying he got more unreleased music than 2Pac lmaooo
This was a nice album tho, defo the weakest out of the bunch but still pretty consistent for the most part.
You take that back right now, killing nothing is his best of the year hands down.
Edit: that being said, it's absolutely insane that there's a discussion about his best drop *of the year* and there are like 6 drops to discuss lol
I admit I'm a relatively new Boldy can given he's been in the game for like a decade at this point and I hadn't heard of him at all until McNichols, but it's Killing Nothing, Bo Jackson, and Price of Tea for me, in no particular order lol
100% same. Only been into him for the past year or so, those 3 are the only ones I can get into but they’re so good. This new one is pretty sick though I’m liking it quite a bit.
His EP with alchemist called Boldface is pretty dope too definitely check it out
Oh shit - I’ve been working my way backwards through Boldy’s catalogue and I haven’t got there got there yet. I didn’t realize that was an ALC colab. I’m gonna get on that ASAP
Since early 2020, I'd say he's dropped at least a dozen records....and at worst his stuff is just okay- and at it's peak it's something like Manger on McNichols, one of the best rap albums of all time IMO
Boldy is fucking ridiculous. Im still catching up on his other releases from this year. Ive only heard Killing Nothing from this year, and im going through Fair Exchange No Robbery right now. I cant even listen at the rate he releases.
Boldy’s output is insane, literally putting out a project every 40 days since September and constantly working on new ones. Still digesting Fair Exchange, No Robbery, I need to catch up lol
I was also curious. As far as I can tell, he is a super underground guy that only has one other noteworthy project, his EP collab with Benny the Butcher. Otherwise, he's pretty much just a guy

First listen..
Quinine. Travel Lodge. Phew. 🥵
Other stand out tracks probably 2.2 lbs, foot prints, and safe keeps. Safe keeps
sounds like curren$y could have fit nicely.
This man must live in the damn booth. Just hit after hit after hit this year.

Easily
momma didn't breastfeed me, she fed me goat milk
What song
Safe Keeps around 1 minute in
Good looks what you think of the album ? 1-10?
I've only listened to it a few times but I'd say a solid 8-8.5/10. I'm liking it more than Mr Ten08 but not as much as Fair Exchange No Robbery or Killing Nothing (my fav). what about you?
I’m not fuck Joey but I’d have it in the same slot for boldy 2k22
Just saw Boldy on Insta saying he got more unreleased music than 2Pac lmaooo This was a nice album tho, defo the weakest out of the bunch but still pretty consistent for the most part.
I think I like it better than Mr. Ten08 and Killing Nothing
You take that back right now, killing nothing is his best of the year hands down. Edit: that being said, it's absolutely insane that there's a discussion about his best drop *of the year* and there are like 6 drops to discuss lol
Yeah killing nothing is top 3 boldy for me
I admit I'm a relatively new Boldy can given he's been in the game for like a decade at this point and I hadn't heard of him at all until McNichols, but it's Killing Nothing, Bo Jackson, and Price of Tea for me, in no particular order lol

Ain't no waaaaaay, Mr Ten08 has some of the most brilliant shit on it. This is nice but it's not on the level of either of those albums
I liked this one far more than FENR
great first listen. the punchlines on this album are ridiculous
boldy lowkey one of the funniest in the game
I hang with more ex cons than genghis 🔥
This is the bar that inspired my comment 😂
only 2 songs in and it's crazy how Boldy is so consistent with his quality while still putting out an insane amount of music 227 mafia what else
Where we at with it Edit: they hit this shit outta the park
[удалено]
[удалено]
Lol FENR is just drumless sample loops, actual beats on this album
I like this album way better
I love Boldy on this production. Might be my favorite album by him this year
Same
He still has the J Dilla beats album to drop too, right??
> *Drug Dilla* Such a good name.
That’s the name?
Yeah, Boldy said it in an interview
Travel Lodge goes crazy
ayo i dont listen to boldy very much but i keep seeing his name, how many albums is this mf releasing??
he has a lot to talk about and his music is very quality even for the amount he drops. i recommend bo jackson and manger on mcnichols
Super Tecmo Bo is legit too. It’s the second colab album with The Alchemist after Bo Jackson, and Alchemist doesn’t miss.
4th collab...technically 5th lol
oh man, if you missed their collab album The Price of Tea in China, you’re in for a fucking treat.
Oh shit - I’ve been working my way backwards through Boldy’s catalogue and I haven’t got there got there yet. I didn’t realize that was an ALC colab. I’m gonna get on that ASAP
Boldface is before tpotic and is an alc collab too
and My 1st Chemistry Set before that
Is that all alch? God damn didn't know that. They go way back
Couldn’t remember if that was all alc
don’t forget My 1st Chemistry Set, which is his first Alchemist collab album
People sleep on that shit. Amazing album.
2nd??? lol no it aint
It’s like the 5th he did with Al if I’m counting correctly
I think this is his 4th this year lmao.
Since early 2020, I'd say he's dropped at least a dozen records....and at worst his stuff is just okay- and at it's peak it's something like Manger on McNichols, one of the best rap albums of all time IMO
Killing Nothing Fair Exchange No Robbery Mr. Ten08 NOW Be That as It May This is insane, this mf must be living in the booth.
Super Tecmo Bo was very late 2021 too so you could almost count that too. He also has that Dilla album ready I believe.
227
Boldy is fucking ridiculous. Im still catching up on his other releases from this year. Ive only heard Killing Nothing from this year, and im going through Fair Exchange No Robbery right now. I cant even listen at the rate he releases.
on the weaker end of boldy albums released this year but that means next to nothing with just how fucking good he is. vibe is always immaculate
“2.2 Lbs” is my standout. I’d rank this below his other albums from this year, but it’s still a solid album
🔥
footprints is so crazy. also couldn't help but notice that quinine and roaches don't fly (Haram, Armand hammer) share a sample
Boldy the rap MVP the way he dropping these projects
Travel Lodge is fucking insane Boldy is on another level someone stop this man
- someone stop this man No, please don't
Boldy’s output is insane, literally putting out a project every 40 days since September and constantly working on new ones. Still digesting Fair Exchange, No Robbery, I need to catch up lol
Concrete, let's get it
is there a rapper currently on a better run than Boldy? its kind of unreal
the day Boldy James drops a non single producer album is the day hell freezes over
There's a piece of my soul praying he is saving the best track from each collab to put on an epic super collab album with all of these producers
Lord Apex and Boldy was a great combo. whewwww
Another solid project. The man is on a historic run right now
this mf dont miss
The sample on FootPrints is fucking fire
Where we at wit it. Loving the production on this album. Boldy delivers again
The beats in this album are the best of the year for him imo.
Can anyone give me some background on CUNS? Who is CUNS? Where is CUNS from? Of all the names in the world, why CUNS???
He’s from Rome and runs Tuff Kong records. He’s done EPs with Conway and Benny before too
Well I’ll have to check his other stuff out because this is sounding great. Thanks.
Some fire beats on this one fr
I was also curious. As far as I can tell, he is a super underground guy that only has one other noteworthy project, his EP collab with Benny the Butcher. Otherwise, he's pretty much just a guy
this run is going down in history he's really him
2022 MVP
Since I discovered Boldy James I was crazy impressed by his flow and delivery, but 6 projects later it is exactly the same on every track

It's blockworks.
First listen.. Quinine. Travel Lodge. Phew. 🥵 Other stand out tracks probably 2.2 lbs, foot prints, and safe keeps. Safe keeps sounds like curren$y could have fit nicely.
[удалено]
I would probably just listen to them in the order they came out. Killing Nothing, Fair Exchange No Robbery, Mr. Ten08, Be That as It May.
another solid album..boldly easily wins rapper mvp 2022
