Thank you very much.

[QUOTE=Illmatic]Yeah, but both albums as a whole are just lackluster and blah...and the only songs that stick off of either are "Web" and "The Seed 2.0"[/QUOTE]
"Star", "Water" and "Boom!" are not to be forgotten imo.
I think Do You Want More?!!!??!, Illadelph Halflife and Things Fall Apart are all classic tho.

Hey don't mean to hijack your discussion here but I need help. I've started listening to abit of hip-hop recently and I remember this rap vid i saw awhile ago. I think it was by a guy called K-os and he was walking around and had alot of people wearing masks which I thought resembled Crabs in some way or another. It had a kind've swingy Jazzy feal to it. Anyone know what track I'm talking about?

EDIT: Okies just found the album only, The song was Crabbucket. So yeh....I'm pretty much new to this whole Rap and Hip-hop thing. Recomend me some that isn't Gangsta rap. Thank you :thumb:

Does anyone like Haiku D'Etat? I think if anyone's heard Busdriver and hasn't heard these guys they should! They mix it all up just like Busdriver does, their "coup de theatre" album's great.

there's a song!

Any Edan fans?

I have a couple of songs by Edan, that I got from you, I think. They're good, if I remember correctly, but they're on my other (University) computer, so I haven't been listening to them much for a long while now.

:eek:

I was just sent a DJ Qbert album. This is seriously amazing.

I saw him live he is amazing fast, I just can't get into DJs though. I never tried and don't know a lot about it but it just seems like it doesn't involve any talent I could be and probably am wrong. Also does anybody know why he just uses one turntable instead of two?

Anybody else like Common? "Be" is really good, imo.

i always liked 7L&Esoteric among many other rap artists.

oh, and if you think that Busta Rhymes or Twista are the fastest mc's in the hip hop world, you should ask me to send you a song from a Romanian band, called R.A.C.L.A (in aproximative translation that means coffin) I tell you guys, i couldnt believe what i was hearing while playing the song. Absolutley amazing. Then i saw them live play it and i was stunned ever since.

yahoo id if anybody is interested : missanntrophe (just leave a message that you are from this forum so i know)

Bus Driver is pretty fast or something

*doesn't know much about rap*

yes busdriver, and all of them, i heard all of these guys on the thps games, lol. but they are good.

Tech N9ne anyone?

Does anyone here like 50 cent or Eminem?

[QUOTE=G&L RF]Anybody else like Common? "Be" is really good, imo.[/QUOTE]

I saw Common about a week ago, and he was pretty cool. I liked it when he got people break dancing on the stage, and then he was breaking himself. He also got Talib Kweli (who wasn't as good by himself) to come rap with him. I don't have any of his albums, but I might pick one up sometime. I guess I might try and get "Be" if you say it is good.

[QUOTE=MattMan999]Does anyone here like 50 cent or Eminem?[/QUOTE]

1. No.
2. I used to, but not anymore.

[QUOTE=MattMan999]Does anyone here like 50 cent or Eminem?[/QUOTE]
I despise 50 cent. His lyrics are completely worthless and the musical parts of his songs are shi[COLOR=White]t[/COLOR] aswell. And Eminem is just annoying and not too great.

I'd upload it YSI.com for you, but that's kind of illegal in MX now.

Get Resurrection, it's way better than Be. Both the production and the lyrics are better on that album, in particular the production. :)

Any Zion-I fans out there? Wanna recommend me an album?

I think the production on Resurrection almost ruins what should have been a stone cold classic, personally.

[QUOTE=Robert Crumb]Any Zion-I fans out there? Wanna recommend me an album?[/QUOTE]

I'm a Zion-I fan, but don't have any albums.

Deltron 3030 is highly recommended.

[QUOTE=Iai]I think the production on Resurrection almost ruins what should have been a stone cold classic, personally.[/QUOTE]
Hmm, to each his own I guess, but to me that production is just lovely, while the production on let's say Go! and Testify just make me fall asleep.

As for Zion-I, I only heard True & Livin (their newest) and it's very good, recommended. I've also heard some people say it's their best, so I suggest you'd check it out.

A local rap station here played Tupac literally all day :cool:

Anybody else remember that it was his anniversary?

Cool, I'll give it a shot. Heard some of his stuff before, don't think I really gave his stuff a proper chance.

That's a great song. I like K-os.

Downloaded [I]Revolutionary Vol. 2[/I] by Immortal Technique the other day, very, very good album.

Rap is horible rock is good

[QUOTE=d-1]Rap is horible rock is good[/QUOTE]

Read the rules and you'll know why I banned you.

New Blackalicious in 4 days!!!!

Does anyone know if there will be a new Jehst release anytime soon?

Does anybody have the Tupac: Resurrection Soundtrack and the track Thugz Mansion?

I've tried to ignore all of Pac's posthumous material...I don't think it's right that the rap industry keeps digging up his corpse to make it dance for money.

Also, has anyone heard TZU?

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]Most of his posthumous singles have been pretty awful in comparison to what he released while he was alive. Which would lead me to believe there's no chance he could ever be alive, as no living person could enjoy such a memory-raping.[/QUOTE]
Do you have any of his albums you are willing to trade?

Just got Illmatic, and I'm pretty impressed.

Anyobdy here like Blueprint?

[QUOTE=Flame In The Ashes]the track Thugz Mansion?[/QUOTE]

I have that
