Not enough talk of KRS-One or Brand Nubain in this discussion.

KRS-One is terrible.

Okay then, still a serious lack of Brand Nubian.

I agree

[quote=DFelon204409;14916859]Nah man. [I]The Grind Date[/I] has 3 songs that are individually better than any track on [I]Illmatic[/I]. and this is [I]The Grind Date[/I] we're talking about.[/quote]

This is completely absurd.

Cobert, Ampere and Diatro are doing a house show somewhere in pittsburgh on July 27 :smash:

Why is Cob doing a show with them?

[QUOTE=Dextomethorphan;14918667]Why is Cob doing a show with them?[/QUOTE]

I think he's addressing Cob, as in like "Cobert, I don't have any clean socks."

yah hahaha sorry. i was letting him no cause house shows are sweet haha.

I know I know. But it looked funny.

ha ha ha

c'mon buddy. get out and go see a show!

I question your actual listening of the album considering you are somehow able to make review long accusations after only hearing an album once.

Illmatic is as much a reinvention of east coast rap as 36 Chambers. Plus, they are both similar in their extremely minimal production. If you are a fan of rap and dislike these albums, I can't comprehend your attitude.

i completely agree

on a side note: if i had the money i would totally fly to italy to see La Quiete perform

[I]Illmatic[/I] rules.

id probably just wait til they came to town. love la quiete though.

I think they're coming here later in the year. I don't really know them, what are they like?

they're an italian screamo band, and as with other euro skramo ive noticed that they have more of a focus on the melody than most american skramo, and so imho the songs are much prettier

la quiete is beautiful.

My Ampere/Daitro split came. Amazing artwork.

been meaning to get that for a while. and that raein/lhasasasas whatever split.

Envy on July 21th
Sparta on July 22th

life is sweet

Better hurry. Only one pressing.

Jared nailed it. Illmatic is incredible. The gritty production, the fact that beats are straight up piano, bass and drums, and Nas' flow on that album is unstoppable. Definitely one of the best rap albums ever.
