Best of TDE (Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, Jay Rock & ScHoolboy Q) Playlist

I won’t front, when I go to the gym or for a run, I need some super upbeat shit to help me power through that last mile or set. Disclosure, Duke Dumont, Julio Bashmore, Tensnake, Kelela, A-Trak or the likes are blasting through the headphones.

But sometimes, you just need to hear that Kendrick Lamar and ScHoolboy QMichael Jordan” or Ab-Soul and Q’s “Druggys With Hoes Again” to hit stride, though. And this is just talking about the Top Dawg Ent. side of things because DMXRuff Ryders Anthem,” Freeway and Peedi Crakk “Flipside” and Kanye WestStronger” are always go-to in the spectrum of rap gym songs.

But back to the Black Hippy music, those hard tracks are just the tip of the iceberg. The whole collective has solo tracks and introspective shit that supersedes the “gym material” and can still get plenty of burn (and has) for years. Which is what this playlist is.

This is some of the best stuff I’ve bumped over the span of Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, ScHoolboy Q and Ab-Soul’s careers. Yes, SZA and Isaiah Rashad, we’re sorry you were left off. Technically this is Best of Black Hippy, but same difference. I can’t even call it a true “TDE GYM” playlist either, because Soulo’s “Moscato” or K. Dot’s “Blow My High” doesn’t really say ‘keep running‘.

Anyway, I’m sure you have your own individual picks that probably look nothing like mine, but for those who just need some player TDE tracks to cruise in the whip to, you’re welcome. They’re in no particular order past “Terrorist Threats” because I got lazy and I may be missing some big singles they released, so sue me. I like what I like. Yeah, ScHoolboy Q is flooded on here.

You can always share your favorites in comments and shit on my picks. Be my guest.
