[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan;16182812]El-P with Dizzee Rascal and Busdriver.[/QUOTE]

Holy crap what an awesome show. My problem with Dizzee shows, is that he brings in a pretty crappy crowd, in Australia anyway. I dig his stuff though, in moderation.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan;16187457]Atmosphere was something I got into right when I started listening to underground hip hop so it's always held a soft spot for me.[/QUOTE]

this

He's good live. And I think most of his new stuff is better than most of his old stuff.


I gotta see if El-P is playing near me.

I'm excited for Busdriver, to be honest. His albums can be meh but there are always some amazing stand out tracks.

Busdriver is reeaally good live, and when I saw him I didn't even know any of his stuff. He gets really into though and everyone has a good time.

He has more dimes than that sprint lady. Big L is awesome, if you haven't heard MVP you should. Because you know, his raps are unbelievable like aliens and flying saucers.

lol sporty theivz

Bought Graduation the other day. Kanye's a pretty bad and weak rapper....but amazing producer

Not really on that album though.

kanye is headlining lolla gay

get out the way yo, get out the way yo, Biggie Smalls just got dropped.

I know I'm way behind on this, but I just got Deltron 3030 and it's awesome.

Graduation is pretty cool except for some songs... like the one with Mos Def is reeeally awful.

Mos Def's a buster

This How I feel
 

I feel that hip hop is dead and rap is whack.:rolleyes:

dude that's the best song on the album

who is the first rapper in this?

[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aczWVwWfD78[/url]

is it "lee majors"? cuz if it is he's impossible to find on the interwebs...

Lee Majors is a mystery man.

He sounds whack but whatever. Like a Lupe Fiasco with less ferocity.

i like his rap in that song...was gonna check his other **** to see how it was. but thanks btw.

In hip-hop lines are often stolen from an artist and used by another, often in my opinion to pay tribute. Beats are also reused. Some of the examples I have found are as follows.

Boombox-Aesop Rock
Da Mystery of Chessboxin'-Wu-Tang Clan
"raw I'ma give it to you, with no trivia"

Always Coming Back Home To You-Atmosphere
Shook Ones Part II-Mobb Deep
"to all the killers and the hundred dollar billers"

Letter From the Gov't-Brother Ali
Officer-The Pharcyde
"I got a letter from the..."

and then the same can be done with beats in example.

Creation & Destruction-Immortal Technique
Long Kiss Goodnight-The Notorious BIG

My question for you is can you help me find similar examples

Ummm...
"I got a letter from the government" is from Public Enemy. "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos." In fact, the Pharcyde sample Chuck D saying it.

Kanye West on "Classic"
Rob Base on "It Takes Two"
