[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo;17150548]we should really try and get a hip-hop forum made.[/QUOTE]
Funny you mention that....I was just searching around for a good hip-hop forum, couldn't find anything too great.

There are good ones, but yes we need one. This is here dumb, it's like a white boy music forum.

could you link me to one of these good ones?

Anybody scope the new Zion I album yet?

ya it's not very impressive. average to slightly above.

Fer sure on that. No changing pure west coast roots in my brainwaves, anyway.

i just cant get into west coast stuff that much... i like blu/exile, blackalicious, some dre, not much else i guess.

Yeah West Coast kinda sucks except for early N.W.A., and Tupac is decent.

East Coast is murda though

both coasts are fly 2 me

West Coast was hot back in the day but it's been sleeping since Tupac died.

Supposedly the Game brought it back but I try not to listen to him.

definitely

Ok, so Finale's Pipe Dream and a Promise might be a contender for album of the year...

[quote=LostChild;17151152]West Coast was hot back in the day but it's been sleeping since Tupac died.[/quote]according to you or spin magazine?

i didn't even like tupac.

[I]The Documentary[/I] was really good.

I like all three of Game's albums. None of them are really much above average but he'll end up having one hell of a greatest hits album down the road.

the game's next album will feature product placement via constant namedropping

Agree with that. I haven't bought anything of the Game's yet, but I would probably buy a Greatest Hits and leave it at that

It's true that he likes his namedropping.

The guy who just won best local rapper entered my rap battle :D

Nice, stoked on the new forum. Since it's a new thing, I'll give a quick intro...

I'm Aaron, I'm a student at university, and lately hip-hop's been my music of choice. I'm a drummer, and I play and have played anything from metal to swing....but like the music I listen to I prefer laying down grooves for the most part these days. I've become very influenced by hip-hop and jazz.

Favorite Hip-Hop Bands:

2Pac
Brotha Lynch Hung
Common
D'Angelo
Dre
Erykah Badu (more R&B, but I absolutely love her ****)
Fugees
Ice Cube
Lauryn Hill's Miseducation album
The Lost Boyz
Nas
Biggie
Snoop
Swollen Members (didn't really like them til I saw them live)
Talib Kweli
Wyclef's Carnival I album
Westside Connections

Those are the gists, getting into to more by week.


This probably wasn't necessary but I felt like doing it...
