11.15.23 | Good shit man, so many classics here. The good ol Def Jux days
Props for 20, that album is still way too overlooked for how good it is |
Butkuiss
11.15.23 | I’m actually surprised that with the current wave of 00s nostalgia in almost every other cultural medium no hip-hop artists are going for an dusty classic era Def Jux aesthetic, but I guess it’s something that modern technology and production methods make a lot harder to recreate. Turntablism especially is almost a dead art at this point too - I don’t hear much scratching on newer hip-hop records. |

11.15.23 | bliss n eso were my real gateway into hip hop but number 3 was my first real WTF hip hop moment. |
Butkuiss
11.15.23 | Don’t worry, I seriously debated throwing Scribe and Fast Crew on here mate |
bellovddd
11.15.23 | how many dudes you know flow like this? |

11.15.23 | the Eminem diss then fort minor lol
I don’t really listen to him anymore but I probably wouldn’t have gotten into hip hop at all if it weren’t for Em. |

11.15.23 | “ I’m actually surprised that with the current wave of 00s nostalgia in almost every other cultural medium no hip-hop artists are going for a dusty classic era Def Jux aesthetic” For real! Good point about the current wave of 00s nostalgia. I get what you mean about it being harder to recreate now but at the same time, with how advanced it’s gotten now, you’d think a skilled producer could find a way |
Butkuiss
11.15.23 | I think the easiest way would honestly be to buy a vintage sampler and learn that - but why would anyone when DAWs are just so much easier. |

11.15.23 | My formative hip hop list would look almost identical if I made one haha. Good shit. Maybe I’d throw in Typical Cats s/t, remove a couple unknowns and call it a day. |
Butkuiss
11.15.23 | I would implore you to check out any unknown on this list, they’re pretty much all worth it imo |
Jash
11.15.23 | So much goodness on here, even found a few I didn’t know which I’ll be checking out soon |
artificialbox
11.15.23 | I defs will! I’ve also been on a hip hop break for the past couple years but that new Aesop Rock album compelled me to revisit a few older favourites and I’ve been enjoying it. |
Wildcardbitchesss
11.15.23 | Never heard 3, 5, 6, 10, 11, 13, 18, 19, 21, 22, 24, 25, 30, 33, 39, 45, 47, or 49
…I have homework I guess |
Wildcardbitchesss
11.15.23 | 12 is def my favorite of the ones I have listened to tho, incredible record |
Butkuiss
11.15.23 | 6, 18, 29, 42, 47 and 50 are probably the ones here I would posit are probably most nostalgia-based inclusions here, but I still think they’re worth a try for the curious listener whose tastes seem to align with mine otherwise. |

PotsyTater
11.15.23 | Not sure why I’d run away screaming from it |
Butkuiss
11.15.23 | Mainly the inclusion of Eyedea, Slug, Cage, Aesop, Sadistik and Mike Shinoda.
I was making a funny 😌 |
Emim
11.15.23 | Pretty close to what my list would look like, just needs more P.O.S. |
PotsyTater
11.15.23 | There are enough absolute all timers in here to make the puberty-hop barely even register, fret not |

11.15.23 | Thanks for this, G. Some stuffs I haven't really heard that I will add to the spin list.
If you haven't already heard it... The Body of the Life Force - Afu-Ra
