Official Snowfall Season 5 Thread

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Good episode but nobody was rapping like that in the 80s

Another thing is Franklin has never met anybody from the girl family. That’s very reckless to get her pregnant. She mentioned her mother but I hope she shows up

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Jerome is the wild card to watch in all of this. nikka just trying to keep the peace. He making me sick though letting Louie get him into everything

This customer at my job rn looks like Teddy. I’m glancing over to look at him every few mins like

ehh, that would be too contrived especially after his girl last season being the opps plus melody flipping...i could see this new chick sowing discord between the crew and getting frank to further distance himself from louie, etc or outing his mom and her move against teddy. but her being a cop would be cheap, esp since louie already got a cop storyline

There were a couple times this episode where it seemed like they tried to tell us something was up with her....could be misdirection though.

@Lucky_Lefty knows he's dead wrong talking about Cissy might be a mole......you know you could have used a different word

RAKIM IS THE GOD EMCEE OF THE UNIVERSE/GALAXY

Fixed

Franklin gf growing on me. She’s definitely homely but the hairstyle does her no favors. She’s a natural haired type of girl. And I’m sure her casting is to show Franklin wants a girl like his moms.

this.

i posted the exact same thing in the TLR thread where folks were going in on her looks.

Wasn’t even thinking of it like that in the moment bruh lol

Jerome was just a nikka from Grove Street tryna sell weed bags and run a stereo shop. Now he’s trapped into selling major weight for the CIA to fund political uprisings

I noticed that - flow was too advanced and it ain't Cali style, the flow is East coast. What do you think is going to happen to this rapper kid, what's the angle?

But West Coast style is an evolution of a particular east coast track. Ice-T was using Schoolly D’s flow from “PSK” to make “6 In The Morning” which later inspired Ice Cube on “Boys In The Hood”.







Although I do agree the style of flow on that track last night was a bit advanced for the early 80s I know there were some MCs doing advanced flows early on. I’ll have to dig for examples because I’m drawing blanks at the moment, but I remember hearing a Melle Mel track from back then that blew my mind recently because I thought he only had one speed.

I'll trust you on this since my hip-hop knowledge is mainly from the 2000s. I am just nit picking anyway. I mainly want to know what's the shows angle with this story. Was Jerome pissed or interested in signing him?
