haha suchfriends, yr my boy. I love you, man.

but please don't sleep on the East, "the East is the seed."

what I love most about Dr Dooom is that whether on the 90s shit or the recent new Dooom album (which is also the fucking SHIT!) is that he takes the whole diss-a-nigga flows that Tupac started with Hit 'Em Up but didn't make it personal. He disses ALL KINDS of MCs and busters but never ever names names! genius!

He proves you can talk a grip of shit without it having to be personal or directed at anyone in particular.

Yup my copy of the Score still gets play but when it first came out it was in the deck for atleast two weeks straight before I pulled it out and listened to something else.

I know it's awesome. Except on the new one he disses Simon from American Idol by name. Haha. So weird. But yeah, Doc Dooom pretty much just makes diss tracks aimed at every rapper that isn't himself. Haha.

that's what I'm saying. That record was so evey day for me for months when it came out.

but Simon has it coming! Doc had to drop dime!

"fuck american idol, Simon and his whack ass.. he can kiss the bottom of my foot and paula can kiss my black ass!"

"the kind of guy who could piss on jazz funk and blue grass.. paint yr face black I bet all yr assets you'll come out with a blue ass.." genius!

haha. I wish all his newer albums were as consistent. His last GREAT album to me was KOOL KEITH PRESENTS THEE UNDATAKERZ from 2004 which is so so so under rated. That album is hilarious. Total mockery of horrorcore. And the beats are soooooo good minimal southern space tracks.

Since then, Dooom 2 was by far the best thing he put out.

rap is about the stories suchfriends, not the dancing,. go listen to mc hammer if you wanna dance and shit.

I woud rather hear a simple hard beat, with a hard rhymer, than any danceteria bullshit.

give me EPMD, Rakim, PE, Geto Boys, scarface, too short, slick rick etc etc

but then again, I am old.

agreed. undatakerz is one of the better since the 90s, but I do really dig the Mr Nagatco shit, I think that album is fly. His best work is with Kutmaster Kurt who is the DJ in Undatakerz right?

blind folks be like somebody turned the lights off...

and you have a beard, so...

scarface.. too short.. slick rick.. you can c-walk to ALL this shit.. and Too $hort IS YAY-ar-ee-uh fool! He is one of the pioneer originators of that style! and rakeim.. well I can only dig a bit of it.. the Prince Rakeim album is my favorite has the most grooves..

I don't mind if you tell a story but let me get in the groove over the track.. its music, not a lecture! Its rap, not thanksgiving with grandpa!


I chill with a bunch of wu nutz and other east coast riders.. none of them can dance.. and none of them care. But this shit is the west son, its not called a backyard boogie for nothin ;)

I don't know the identity of the DJ. He wore a mask, so it could've been. But I don't think so. I think the whole Undatakerz crew was unknowns. And I'm guessing from the South for the most part. At that time Keith was really fascinated by like No Limit artists and stuff.

Nogatco was a good record. So was Project Polaroid.

Do you like The Game? I love his 3 major label albums. They're pretty much much just homages to classic Death Row era shiz.

I like the post-50cent Game fo sho! After all, I chill in compton, its kinda mando! when in north long beach you have to bump the black knights, snoop and sublime. when in bompton or watts da game and eazy e is absolute essentials.. these are local area soundtracks!

Even DOCUMENTARY is good, since Dre produced. I'm not a G-Unit fan, but The Game was too good for them. He's so much more complex than they are.

People listen to the Black Knights? I had no idea.

I rocked Sublime all summer. One of my favorite bands in high school.

fuck yeah.. not as much these days, people are lame and into all that radio shit, but some OGz still keep it real

some shit you gots to keep to yrself my man.

I personally like both of Hill's solo albums quite a bit. MTV Unplugged is very underrated to me. She is arguably kind of crazy though.

Oh and yeah, it is amazing how few hip-hop acts actually manage to make it to 4 great albums. In addition to others mention (especially Doom), I'd say Jay-Z has probably done it, but that's countered by the fact that often the albums between the classics are real disappointments...

sorry to be so negative.. but gay-z fucking sucks!

but true, it is very difficult for 4 album masters, but then again, isn't that a challenge for most artists of any genre?
