[QUOTE=JonM]Oh my God. Get [i]Aquemini[/i] too.[/QUOTE]
Ugh, I want to but I'm kind of in debt at the moment.

I'm really looking forward to getting some of their older albums though, because I like Stankonia tons more than Speakerboxx/Love Below (even though it was harder for me to get into at first).

Kyle 07-19-2006 02:39 AM

[I]Aquemini[/I] is my favorite of the ones I have heard.

In other news, I review Kanye's [I]Freshman Adjustment[/I] today...

thank you! Can I send you anything in return?[/QUOTE]
Sent, tell me if you didn't get the link.

I'm always interested in obscure, unknown bands/music. If you got something good which you don't think I'll have, you may upload it for me. I'm always willing to check out new music. :)

I dont kno why I just cant get into Kayne. I cant remember (I think it might have been Amit) who said that not liking someones music because of their personality is stupid. But I really cant help it. I think his attitude and cockiness has really thrown me off from him.

Kyle 07-19-2006 08:06 AM

Yeah that is pretty stupid, if that's the only reason you don't like him. But if you don't particuarly dig his styles either, then I can understand why his arrogance would put you off completely. I got into Hip Hop music through Kanye though, so I'm forever grateful for that...I would have missed out on so much great music.

Yeah, but his arrogance and cockiness transfers into his lyrics. Thats why I don't like him.

I got a real treat headed your way.

Kyle 07-19-2006 11:13 AM

[QUOTE=Dand]Yeah, but his arrogance and cockiness transfers into his lyrics. Thats why I don't like him.[/QUOTE]Yeah, but that then becomes a musical factor, and not just purely based on personality.

Sent. I'm diggin the Cunninlynguists a lot, thanks for that.

Kyle 07-20-2006 04:11 AM

Hey ATM, this Swamburger & Descry album is really tight! Have you got any information (tracknames etc) because I can't find any matches on google at all.

LF96 07-21-2006 05:39 AM

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]Sent. I'm diggin the Cunninlynguists a lot, thanks for that.[/QUOTE]
Hmm, strange, I didn't receive anything... :confused:

Isn't there a PM system down here?

ATM 07-21-2006 02:40 PM

argh, really...

ill try and resend it

Kyle: I actually have no info on the album, because I recieved it from a friend, but i really dig it

Kyle 07-21-2006 03:35 PM

Oh ok, it's kinda odd that there is no information what so ever though. I've never really seen that with an album. Oh well, I'll just enjoy it for the music :)

gaslight 07-30-2006 04:51 PM

I've been looking for "Wishing" by Ed OG on the net but can't find it, can any of you guys hook me up?

Dice 07-30-2006 09:40 PM

Any Rakim fans?

ATM 07-30-2006 09:56 PM

Only when he was with Eric B. I have 18th letter, which is just Rakim by himself, and its not terribly bad just not very good either.

Dice 07-31-2006 02:28 AM

I never really liked Eric B a whole lot- It was hilarious how in the video clips he'd just stand there in the same pose the whole time.

I agree the 18th Letter could be better- but he's bringing out a new album this year -supposedly- so we'll see how it goes.

I really do suggest everyone check out Styles Of Beyond, 2000 Fold & Megadef. (They're working on a third album right now)

And Apathy, also. He's featured in a few of their songs and seems rather good, I'm getting his album now.

Yea definantly check out Apathy. He is part of the group Demigodz, and a very talented MC.

Lately I cant stop listening to People Under the Stairs.

JonM 07-31-2006 09:39 AM

I love them. They were my big discovery of last semester.

ATM 07-31-2006 09:43 AM

Yea, such good summer music. Right now I am listening to "San Fransisco Knights". Such an awesome song.

Alright so I hear that the new J5 album is wack, but should I still try and see them when they play near me soon?

Glitterati 07-31-2006 12:04 PM

I'd still go see J5 if they came here, go for it.

I'm digging MF Doom a lot lately. So ridiculously good.

MF Doom \m/

which albums? Ill tell you which you need to get next.

Glitterati 07-31-2006 05:27 PM

Right now, MM..Food? which is pretty cool.

ATM 07-31-2006 05:32 PM

Hmm I'd go for either Madvilliany or Operation Doomsday next.

Kyle the 2nd 07-31-2006 05:42 PM

Defintately see J5, the new album might suck (havn't listened yet), but they're still a [U]great[/U] live act.

Robert Crumb 07-31-2006 09:28 PM

I think they'd be pretty good live, too. Feedback wouldn't deter me from seeing them. Ticket prices, on the other hand...
