Should be in the top 5 of anyone's favourite hip hop albums imo.

Have started work on those recommendations with WTC's Enter the Wu-Tang.

Very cool stuff. The soul music samples are awesome, the structures are bizarrely entertaining (very casual), great storytelling as well. A nice change away from the artificial sounding stuff.

Apocalyptic Raids 10-12-2007 10:34 PM

if you like that then you should also check out GZA - [I]Liquid Swords[/I] and Raekwon - [I]Only Built 4 Cuban Linx...[/I]

Yeah check out Liquid Swords if you like 36 chambers. As for myself, I don't like Only Built 4 Cuban Linx that much, but alot of people do.

Also, check out some Native Tongue stuff, like Mos Def - Black on Both Sides, Black Star, A Tribe Called Quest and Common, those are all favorites of mine. Most are pretty accesible too.

I've always wanted to go to a Stones Throw show like this but I never can make it out when they come around.

Time 10-13-2007 04:42 PM

^^is that at Sonar or Black Cat? those are pretty cool venues. Madlib's pretty awesome, I'm not gonna go to that show though

ATM 10-13-2007 04:49 PM

It's at Black Cat. Venue is kind of crap, but I can't miss Stones Throw.

Time 10-13-2007 04:55 PM

yep that show should be pretty awesome, can't say I've ever been to a hip hop concert though. Wu Tang's coming to Sonar, but it's with Three6 Mafia and Paul Wall so there's no way Im going.

ATM 10-13-2007 05:03 PM

Yea, I saw that they were coming to Baltimore. I'm without a car these days, though. I did see Wu Tang this summer and Ghostface last week :)

I want to go to that Rakim, Ghostface, and Brother Ali show at 930 club.

Will do. Thanks for that.

Only women and Canadians like Butch Walker.

[QUOTE=Splat Out Plath;15409591]also butch walker[/QUOTE]

I'm working on two fronts right now: punk and rap/hiphop.

Butch Walker (born Bradley Glenn Walker III on November 14, 1969) is an American recording artist, songwriter, and record producer.

Why would you not go see Wu and Three Six?

badtaste 10-13-2007 08:46 PM

[QUOTE=Splat Out Plath;15409631]make an exception :([/QUOTE]

Name a song (or few) and I'll give it a go.

Holy crap how were they?

I would kill for awesome acts like that to come to Australia. But it will never happen :(
