I like Atmosphere quite a bit. Especially Sad Clown Bad Dub II.

You guys listen to Binary Star at all? My buddy bought Masters of the Universe for 5 bucks before they got big cause they're from around here. I'm just now listening, but so far it's pretty cool.

Kaiwaz 01-16-2007 12:12 AM

Any of you guys get into Deltron 3030?

sgrevs 01-16-2007 12:14 AM

Just bought Dan the Automator's [I]2K7[/I]. Anyone heard it yet? Haven't given it a listen yet but will do a bit later, pretty excited, got some wicked voices on it, Ghostface, Zion I, Hieroglyphics, A Tribe Called Quest, Chali 2na (Jurassic 5), Mos Def, Lupe Fiasco...

Kyle 01-16-2007 05:00 AM

That sounds sweet^^ I'll probs check it out.

Flagjacket 01-17-2007 06:14 PM

DJ Drama and Cannon got arrested today for making mixtapes. The Atlanta PD are trying to play it like they're two bootleggers.

Jawaharal 01-17-2007 08:09 PM

Someone please recommend me some rappers/rap groups that have the same general sound of Clipse.

It's all basketball themed which takes away from it, in my opinion. I've only heard it once though because my friend put it on at work.


And yes, Binary Star are great. One Bee Lo's solo albums are really good, too.

Very much so. It's one of my favorite albums. The sequel's almost done being recorded, too. :thumb:

ATM 01-18-2007 06:17 PM

Yea I think the beats are done and Del just has to lay down the vocals.

That's true, it does detract from it a bit. Had I known that I might not have bought it. I'm glad I did though, it's still really good. The song with Fabolous is surprisingly strong, one of the best for sure.

ATM 01-18-2007 07:11 PM

At least it's better then:

Spat, what was the name of that group you were talking about quite a bit at one point? JJ Messiah and something?

ATM 01-18-2007 07:27 PM

I'll have to investigate.

Anyhow, meant to post this album:

Hey guys, you know who's good?
Jurassic 5.

Discuss.

antiant 01-19-2007 07:41 PM

i don't like them.

Yeah Jurassic 5 are great. There newest album isn't as good as previous albums but it is still pretty good. I like the song with Dave Matthews, "Work It Out".

Also digging Snoop Doggs new album at the moment, Tha Blue Carpet Treatment.

[QUOTE=sgrevs;14060112]Hey guys, you know who's good?

Discuss.[/QUOTE][I]Break[/I] is such a good song.

sgrevs 01-21-2007 07:41 PM

Agreed.

Chali 2na must have the most recognisable voice in all of hip-hop. Seriously, you couldn't possibly mistake it for anyone else.

Kyle 01-22-2007 06:07 AM

New RJD2 leaked.

Neoteric 01-22-2007 06:14 AM

Jurassic 5 are good.

I've recently been trying to get myself into some more hip-hop, I've been really liking Illmatic :)

Sepstrup 01-22-2007 10:44 AM

Here's me making my typical recommendation: Blackalicious. Check out Blazing Arrow.

Kyle 01-22-2007 01:54 PM

New RJD2 is wierd....it seems to sound more indie than anything.

sgrevs 01-22-2007 10:13 PM

I've never listened to RJD2. Should I?

Hieroglyphics [I]Full Circle[/I] is sick.

ATM 01-22-2007 11:06 PM

New RJD2 is more electronic then hip hop. It's not bad though, just not really what I expected.

I am still digging the new Brother Ali.

Hmm grabbed the new Dalek because apparently they are done with the whole wall of sound thing.

i want thatttttt ive been listening to [I]third eye vision[/I] religiously lately..

i actually came to the thread to post about how much i like oakland blackouts

thats probably my favorite song on the cd

im listening to del's [I]no need for alarm[/I] because i downloaded his discography a while ago but havent actually checked all his stuff out

i think im gonna listen to [I]both sides of the brain[/I] instead. i love that

antiant 01-23-2007 01:11 AM

oakland blackouts = the shyt, def. a favorite

Kyle 01-23-2007 07:18 AM

[QUOTE=sgrevs;14083693]I've never listened to RJD2. Should I?

Hieroglyphics [I]Full Circle[/I] is sick.[/QUOTE]Yeah, you'd definately dig the first album it's killer. The new one is kinda different though, i'm not convinced by it on first listen.

sgrevs 01-23-2007 08:18 AM

Thanks man, looking into it :thumb:

[QUOTE=sgrevs;14083693]Hieroglyphics [I]Full Circle[/I] is sick.[/QUOTE]
I thought that album was rather mediocre, really. Bought it for cheap and only listened to it twice. Maybe I should give it another try though.

I heard the new RJD2 only had a few samples in it and it was mostly RJD2 playing all the instruments himself. That does sound good, I think, plus the tracks on his myspace are quite good. I'm gonna have a search for the leak.
