[QUOTE=The Jungler;13296394]I was just listening to more Magnificent City. Its pretty bad, that goes for Aceyalone as well.

Madlib and Shadow are pretty awesome thouugh. Have you heard any Quasimoto? Madlib is pretty awesome on those records.[/QUOTE]

[I]Magnificent City[/I] is just bad all together. Aceyalone has proved to be one of the best MC's out there though, so I am under the impression RJD2 just game him no real room to work.

I haven't heard any Quasimoto. I have heard his stuff with the Lootpack, Madvillian, and his solo work; none of which is really that fun to listen to.

Quasimoto gets a little irritating after a while.

Yea, i definantly like him much more when he is featured on a track.

I stopped listening to [I]The Outsider[/I] after a couple of tracks. Should I give it another chance?

At least give the entire album a chance before you give you opinion on it; you could be missing out on some really badass music.

The site needs more flippin Hiphop reviews. I think I'm going to do a few.

[QUOTE=Cocaine;13298444]The site needs more flippin Hiphop reviews. I think I'm going to do a few.[/QUOTE]Please do. I'll be writing a few in the future as well.

Does anyone use the review section of this site? It seems most of it is just word of mouth telling each other what is and what isn't good.

nope, i could careless what other people's opinions on a particular album is, i listen for me, therefore it's pointless to me

I can understand why you guys don't use the review site as much as the forums, but if we ever want to see a Hip Hop forum here, then we need to really push the review site. I'd love to see you write a Hip Hop review Antiant, you might not like reading other people's oppinions, but it'd be great to see you put accross your own.

I've gotta review some more Hip Hop too, I swore that I would, but havn't gotten round to it. I still pln on reviewing one or both of Dizzee's albums, it's just about finding the time.

Also, if you guys don't have time to write full review, maybe do soundoffs, or at the very least try and post in the Hip Hop listening Parties. the current one is for Cypress Hill, access it here;

Then why do you discuss albums here? I care about the opinions of others, because they can help me find stuff I enjoy.

When I get the time and the motivation, I'm gonna review [i]American Hunger[/i].

Can you upload Dizzee Rascal's albums (or at least [I]Boy In Da Corner[/I]) to the mailing list?

[QUOTE=Rams;13301062]Can you upload Dizzee Rascal's albums (or at least [I]Boy In Da Corner[/I]) to the mailing list?[/QUOTE]I'll get on them tonight.

The new Ice Cube single is pretty cool.

1337 post count.

I wouldnt mind trying it either, but not any time soon. It's too huge, I'm not ready!

So I'm [size=5]DIGGING[/size] blackalicious atm

You know what really annoys me? Skits. I'd like to know who could possibly think they could [I]improve[/I] an album by including skits.

I know.

Skits are rarely funny. They infuriate me.

You guys listen to Atmosphere?

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased;13302889]You know what really annoys me? Skits. I'd like to know who could possibly think they could [I]improve[/I] an album by including skits.[/QUOTE]The skits on Operation Doomsday are really awesome, though they're barely skits.

And yeah, I listen to Atmosphere. Fu[i]c[/i]k You Lucy is one of my favorite rap songs of all time.

Deltron 3030 has cool skits.


I need to buy Blackalicious albums that aren't Blazing Arrow.

Yeah.

Skits are cool sometimes if they go along with the whole story of the album.
I don't mind listining to a song and than suddenly just hear 40 minutues of something other than singing.

Actually yeah, the skits on [I]Deltron 3030[/I] are possibly the least irritating I've heard. But they still don't make the album any better.

[I]The Craft[/I] is worth a listen. It's nowhere near the brilliance of [I]Blazing Arrow[/I], but it has some great tracks.

I don't remeber the Deltron skits. I should probably relisten to that CD anyways.

I don't even really listen to them.
They just play.

Maybe they'd help me understand the album better.
So Maybe I should check out Blackalicious as well.

Yeah, everyone that hasn't checked out Blackalicious should check out Blackalicious. [I]Blazing Arrow[/I] is the album you need.

the Lucy Ford EPs are bloody amazing, I was listening to it earlier today. His later material is still good, but he seemed to lose it a little over time. This line's a personal favourite of mine:

I'm not that much of a hiphop aficionado, but Blazing Arrow is the best hiphop album I've heard.
