stop saying livejournal rap. slug can hold it down.

[QUOTE=Amit;16258771]they don't say ****** enough for me[/QUOTE]

fixed

So is the new Atmosphere worth checking out then y or n? I didn't like "You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having", enjoyed Seven's Travels to a point and really enjoyed Godlovesugly and the Lucy Ford EPs. Haven't heard this " Strictly Leakage" business either.

guys more like Los Angeles

The new Grouch album is pretty sweet.

Other then that, haven't heard any new hip hop in awhile.

The new album is one of their best. Def a lot better than sevens travels, which I didn't like.

new nas song [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB7O_mSuzJA[/url]

not very good.

nas is coming to my town. i'm so pumped. lyrically i don't mind that song, but damn the beat is too repetitive for one that isn't that great in the first place. but really i can't believe nas is coming, i haven't been to a concert in such a long time.

anyway.... new roots is good as hell.

I love how dumb the lyrics to that Nas song is.

"Not mad 'cause Eminem said nigga, 'cause he my nigga
wigga, cracker, friend - we all black within, okay?
We all African, okay
Some Africans don't like us no way!
A killng happened in Johannesburg, yesterday
Slain artist named Lucky Dube, hijacked
Some say N-double A-C-P, keep us sidetracked
But I don't buy that, I buy Aston Martins
Faster cars than, NASA cars in, sparkin while ridin
Critics, eat a dick! Journalists see I'm rich"

This is like Kanye level laughable.

Holy ****

Rock the Bells lineup is amazing...

I will spend any amount of money to go

okay, the only rap/hip-hop i can stand:

rjd2
sole & the skyrider band
j dilla
dj shadow
the roots (some)

who should i check out? i'm starting to overplay these.

If you like RJD2 and DJ Shadow, definitely check out Cut Chemist, who is an amazing turntablist as well.

I've only really just gotten into rap, but I really started off with alot of leftfield non-typical stuff like CLOUDDEAd, Why?, Spank Rock, Deltorn 3030 and Dr. Octagon. I'm actually currently digging Organized Konfusion, who blow almost everyone else I've heard out of the water in the lyric department, and Pharoahe Monch's latest album, Desire, is really good/accessible too (i think anyway).

And has anyone here heard of The Herd? There an aussie Skip-Hop crew, really damn cool stuff they got going, I'm probably gonna see them sometime next month for the release of their new album tour =D

I know The Herd, they're alright, but nothing special to me.

Rabbit, check out Deltron 3030 for sure, some Doom and Madlib like [I]MadVillainy[/I]...and maybe some Blackalicious - [I]Blazing Arrow[/I]. Those three are awesome albums.

Alright so I am buying my tickets for RtB:

Sunday – August 3rd – Philadelphia, PA – Venue To be Announced

Featuring:
A TRIBE CALLED QUEST, NAS, MOS DEF, DE LA SOUL, RAKIM, METHOD MAN & REDMAN, RAEKWON & GHOSTFACE, IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE, DEAD PREZ, MURS, JAY ELECTRONICA, WALE, B.O.B., KIDZ IN THE HALL

^jesus thats such a good lineup.

yeah holy **** that sounds unfairly amazing

Good hip-hop rarely comes to Australia, which sucks. A lineup like that would be totally sweet.
We had Busdriver and Dr. Octagon in the summer. Busdriver was awesome but Doc Oc kinda sucked unfortunately. That said, it was at a festival and the crowd was small and sh[I]i[/I]t, so I hardly blame him.

nice man have fun at rock the bells...i went last year in new york it was sick, not going this year tho

Thanks man.

oh man so i found the a capella and instrumental tracks for lollipop

ethnic remix coming right up!

****ing awesome

****ing awesome as well

no it isn't!

I heard that Mos Def/Pharoahe Monch/Nate Dogg track from Lyricist's Lounge again the other day. That track really deserves to be way more famous than it is.

I've been listening to "Swishas and Dosha" by UGK everyday for the past 2 weeks.

Is it called "Oh No"? That song is dope.

Anyone a fan of uk stuff in here?

I like Dizzee. That's pretty much all I know.

[QUOTE=Jaded;16313047]Is it called "Oh No"? That song is dope.[/QUOTE]
Yeah. Wicked track.

I need to heard Dizzee Rascal.

The only UK stuff I listen to/know of is The Streets.

[QUOTE]I need to heard Dizzee Rascal.[/QUOTE]
[I]Maths + English[/I] is awesome, definitely look into it.

Boy in da Corner is better.

No wai! Well, it depends, me and my mate always have this arguement, he likes the rawness of Boy in da Corner, I love the refinement of Math + English.

Maths is probably slightly more consistent but Sittin Here, I Luv U, Fix Up Look Sharp, and Jus A Rascal are all better than any one song on it.

I dunno... Sirens is pretty up there.... Heh, but yea, that's probably a fair enough way at looking at it. Jus A Rascal is awesome.

I don't really like Sirens. My favourite off M+E is P[I]u[/I]ssyole. [I]Boy In Da Corner[/I] is better fo sho.

P[I]u[/I]ssyole and Where Da G's are probably my favourites. Sirens is pretty good too.
