Any Boogie Down Productions
[I]Return Of The Boom Bap[/I]
[I]KRS-One[/I]
[I]Kristyles[/I]
[I]Prophets Vs. Profits[/I]

The guy has 6 or 7 classic albums to his name.

So I just bought the new Jedi Mind Tricks album, and I can't stop listening to "Uncommon Valor." The part where RA the Rugged Man comes in is amazing.

New Jedi Mind is alright. I haven't listened to it much though.

Thanks AR and rams, will see what I can do.

[QUOTE=Pwntendo;14343696]why are you comparing nas to metallica?[/QUOTE]

Master of Puppets was a classic and so was Illmatic (note: this is opinion, although it is shared by many, before people start saying that Master of Puppets sucks or whatever). So many artists never achieve that classic status again no matter how hard they try. In ways, a lot of people automatically dismiss new albums as not as good because they have this mindset about this is what Metallica should be or this is what Nas should be.

I personally like how Nas and Metallica have evolved. I personally really like Nastramadus, which I think is possibly better than Illmatic, although a lot of people see that as Nas' worst.

I have heard a lot about KRS-One and Rakim but I have never heard any of their albums. Anyone got any recommendations on where I should start?

get Eric B & Rakim's [I]Paid In Full[/I] and KRS-One's [I]Return of The Boom Bap[/I].

I can see where you're coming from with the Metallica thing but I don't think it's really that similar. Metallica had already built up a reputation prior to [I]Master of Puppets[/I] with [I]Kill 'Em All[/I] and [I]Ride The Lightning[/I]. DJ Shadow's career would be a more accurate comparison.

Rakim's - The 18th Letter if you want some more up to date beats, sometimes i find it hard to get into older hip hop . . .

Yeah thanks. I also find it hard to get into older hip-hop sometimes as well.

Hangar 18 is nice.

So I'm really liking Sage Francis.

What have you heard? Most people here hate him, but I am a big fan.

Mostly just stuff on like, the 30 myspace pages that he has. I like his lyrics and the content of his songs. Why do people hate him?

anyone heard of dr octagon? that's one of my favourite trip hop group.

Some people find him whiney and too wordy.

[QUOTE=antihippy;14390657]anyone heard of dr octagon? that's one of my favourite trip hop group.[/QUOTE]

who? too underground for this forum buddy.

Dr. Octagon is one guy too.

lol oh noes he used a word thats more than 5 lett0tz!1!


Seriously though escape artists is an awesome song. I have to find some of his albums

Yea, do so. I'd get A Healthy Distrust first, and then pick up Personal Journals.

Yeah I'll see if my FYE has it, they should. I heard some of his spoken word too and some of it is pretty dark.

Escape Artists is a good song.

You've listened to him and don't realize why people hate him? His flow sucks and he says nothing.

To each is own, I really enjoy his work.

[QUOTE=Rams;14394642]You've listened to him and don't realize why people hate him? His flow sucks and he says nothing.[/QUOTE]

I don't really care what other people think of his flow tbh I like him. Plus, you saying he says nothing is an outright lie. Read his lyrics, a lot of them actually pertain to real problems.
