MattMan999 09-10-2005 10:50 PM

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.

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. :)

Robert Crumb 09-11-2005 01:11 PM

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

Iai 09-11-2005 04:02 PM

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

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

Delay Pedal Boy 09-11-2005 05:09 PM

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.

Kurtz 09-13-2005 09:30 PM

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.

[QUOTE=Glass Onion]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:[/QUOTE]

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

Interstate 09-23-2005 08:07 AM

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

Deconstruction 09-24-2005 07:26 PM

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

Illmatic 09-24-2005 07:30 PM

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.

gaslight 09-24-2005 09:30 PM

Also, has anyone heard TZU?

Deconstruction 09-24-2005 10:02 PM

[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?

Jaded 09-25-2005 05:51 PM

Just got Illmatic, and I'm pretty impressed.

Jaded 09-25-2005 06:03 PM

ZEROthirtythree 09-25-2005 09:25 PM

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