Oh I'm all about opinions.

I'll be honest. I'm not familiar with with the first two. Maybe I'll go DL some of their stuff and take a listen.

ONYX S-13 · 04-27-2006, 10:45 AM

I've always like Guru.. Even my pops likes him.. Jazzmatazz is still my favorite.. I haven't listened to it in a looonnngggg time though.

s14xman · 04-27-2006, 11:32 AM

i loved the WU-Tang old stuff, and the first string of solo albums. But now ..eh. Thats funny PHILLIP i was just pulling that album out yesterday!! wiered. More recently i find myself listening to Atmosphere's lucy ford album, i just found that one in my case a while ago and kept listening. Big Hiero fan as well.

You are familiar with Scott Storch, you just didn't realize it. He started with The Roots and branched out on his own as aproducer, he co-produced a few songs with Dr Dre, Timbaland and a few others. His own tracks are fetching damn near a hundred grand each right now.

SimpleSexy180 · 04-27-2006, 11:42 AM

9th wonder and j dilla beats = unstoppable.

I would have mentioned Jay Dee, but he passed a couple months ago, but with no Jay Dilla, there is no 9th Wonder.
This chick I know introduced me to 9th a while back.

SimpleSexy180 · 04-27-2006, 12:33 PM

yeah it sucks he passed so soon. I downloaded a torrent of 1.7gigs of beats and songs he has done, good shit.

damn that would be dope to meet 9th.

It was really quite random the way it happened.
My buddy was working on my car in Raleigh, I drove mom's Kia up there to deliver some parts and such, met Kristin for lunch while I was there, L.E.G.A.C.Y. happens to call her while we were at the chinese place...
"That was legs, at the mall with 9th and Pooh, wanna meet them?"

... took all I had not to appear like a fucking groupie that day.

SimpleSexy180 · 04-27-2006, 12:41 PM

HAHAHAHAHA seriously. i would have acted like a girl. your a lucky man.

Damn son I got owneddddd

I agree with Philip, I am RZA's biggest fan, but there are other producers who are currently doing "better" work. RZA is just revolutionary in some sense cause he shaped and changed the game. People have tried to emulate the power of the Wu (i.e like Boyz in the Hood: FAIL) but its not possible anymore I don't think. Maybe Houston could stage something, but I doubt it.

Some producers like Timbaland, Pharrell, Dr. Dre, Alchemist, Kanye, etc are all making some hot tracks these days. Whether or not its mainstream or underground or whatever is besides the point, any music that makes you feel it is good music.

As far as Scott Storch goes, his name is being dropped in songs like no other. It's like DJ Clue revisited. Oh but I dunno about Storch's latest work he did for Ice Cube.. that song blows ass.

I've been feeling a lot of Cool & Dre's new stuff as well.

*NemeGuero* · 04-27-2006, 01:35 PM

Lil' Jon is getting annoying. Kanye's head is 20X too big for his skill.. and Dre always brings heat.

Timbaland will forever be a bad ass mutha fucka.

that is all.

See, someone here sees that the point here is not to be so blindly espoused to what one feels is "underground" or whatever the fuck they call it to needlessly hate anything that they see is "mainstream."

Kanye, love or hate him, is SERIOUSLY nice with his ASR and MPC, so much to the point that his ego would be well warranted if he would just shut the fuck up about it.

... that is all for now

Yes, Evel Kanyevel is dope as hell man (well, musically).

Who cares about his ego, that fool makes sick beats and definitely is helping the game move forward, both on the front lines and in the shadows. And damn man, if I did the stuff that Kanye did, I'd have some sick ass swagger too.

Check this video out, this is hilarious:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4XOI...20john%20mayer

The Common album he's working on is gonna be bananas. And let's not forget his work with Keyshia Cole, John Legend, Lupe Fiasco, etc.

*NemeGuero* · 04-27-2006, 04:45 PM

Where have you heard hits from the new Common? Hook a brudda up!

Pharcyde
cunninglynguists

and
KRS-One! I have wwaaaayyyy tooo much of his music. And an autograph.

Haven't heard any Common leaks but if the last Common album was any indication, its gonna be ill. Common has always been hot, just like Twista, UGK, Jamie Foxx (yes, musically), who has just recently got their shine. I'm actually glad the industry is finally giving them their time for all the years they've been putting it down.

KRS One has always been dope, but his older stuff was way too hip hop for me, like the BDP stuff. Oh, and "Step Into A World" was my most favorite...and probably his most mainstream joint as well.

The bridge is ova, the bridge is ova, buddadbaibaibai!

*NemeGuero* · 04-27-2006, 05:26 PM

LOL, so that's how you spell it! hahah

Damn, you got me excited with thoughts of new leaking Common.
Yah, BE was the shit. Ask Echo how hard I bumped that album.

haha

And the whole Reasonable Doubt album is just pure classic IMO 22 2's...

wu tang dropped some dope stuff back then but ghostfaces's new cd is kinda disappointing. liquid swords is among one of my favorite cd's.

you guys seemed to forget the Roots, Blackstar and a tribe called quest. i am a 17 year old chinese boy, i only had access to so much hip hop back then so i cant tell you about the stuff from the 80's.

im hearing crazy stuff about the roots new album, its suppose to have appearances from everyone.

MF doom is crazy and ill and stuff, i just got his Operation Doomsday cd. pure fire.

*ManoNegra* · 04-27-2006, 06:21 PM

So no one's heard The Coup's new joint yet then?
Dust Brothers, Dan The Automator, Danger Mouse (getting played out as I type this), Rick Rubin, DJ Krush...
And I agree, Ghostface's new album was a let down but again, I've never been A Wu fan.

Oh, never man. Blackstar is my favorite of all time. Roots are dope, but I never got into a tribe called quest.

I didn't like the mix of jazz into it. Not to say I don't like Jazz in hip hop.. but I didn't like how they did it. I mean, I didn't give them much opportunity after an early shut-down.. but i have yet to hear anything too exciting from them.

jessfx · 04-27-2006, 06:37 PM

pharcyde has been ill since forever. genius gza liquid swords has been one of my top albums for a long long time... and i'm only 20, haha. i love wu-tang. the rza's production has been on point, i think. ...well i just like the grimy beats. har har.

gang starr has forever been ill. primo is off the charts. primo does great production. as does pete rock. you can never go wrong with pete rock beats. i have to say though, when i saw guru at rock the bells last year i was like

*sigh.

last emp. binary star. jean grae. emanon. edan. percee p. mf doom. afrika bam and the soul sonic force bwahahahaah. planet rock! fuckin' grandmaster flash and the furious five... white lines+the message!

mad love to j dilla forreal though. he put it down.
rip james ["jay dee"/"jdilla"] yancey.

alexchanman · 04-27-2006, 06:38 PM

1999 was the year to be listening to hip hop. all that stuff came out around there.

then there was the whole whiteboy rapping excluding vanilla ice. beastie boys are monstrous, and there are these whiteboys from boston, 7l and esoteric. try and find this song, 7L and Esoteric - speaking real words, if you cant find it, IM and i can send it you. its absolutely sick.

and oh yeah i forgot a few, outkast - ATLiens, Mobb Deep - the infamous before they sold out.

You should also try on 7L and Esoteric's song "Word Association," and another GREAT album to look for is WordsWorth's "Mirror Music," words is EXTREMELY nice on the mic, his punchlines and wordplay are amazing and -- get this -- not one curse word from him the whole album.

Although METH and RED made a sick ass album too called blackout, I actually own it on vinyl and MP3.
