anyone else ever noticed that John Mayer's "Waiting On The World To Change" sounds a helluva lot like "What's Up Fatlip"?

fuck y'all leaving me alone tonight. It's all golden age tonight. Common, Redman, Keith Murray, Lords of teh Underground, whatever. It's all old skool t'nite.

listening to some of the oldskool stuff you posted. really good as always. |
dunno if i ever bother to mention it in my posts but NR's tastes are much different than mine.
honestly Wayne, Kanye, Jeezy, Drake & Kendrick are probably in my top 10. i'd be a liar if i said otherwise. everybody here hates Drake but i think he's brilliant. i don't care about his lyrics, i listen to him for melodies and atmosphere. i fucking love trap music in general. Juicy J is the shit. so is Gucci Mane. i also listen to 90's southern rap shit like Three 6, OutKast & Hot Boys all the time. when it comes to up and coming rappers i really really like Schoolboy, ASAP Rocky, Big K.R.I.T, Freddie Gibbs, Chief Keef & Gunplay. of course i try to keep it diverse and listen to all kinds of music. but i don't care what other people think about the music in my iPod, am not a fucking hipster. |
I like Drake, but don't love him. I thought Thank Me Later was excellent, but didn't care as much for Take Care.
Jeezy is awesome... but I don't really follow him too closely. I'm with you on trap music. I think where we differ is a lot of newer stuff. Like I've never even listened to any of those dudes you mentioned beyond Big KRIT. |
true. and of course we both love the classic 90's shit like 2Pac, Snoop/Dre, Wu-Tang, Quest Tribe, etc, etc.
|
Take Care was my fav album last year. i'm a big fan anyway, i also love So Far Gone. a bunch of my fav Drake songs aren't on any of his albums.
for instance, all the songs he dropped prior to Take Care that didn't even make it to the album. |
not rap but Crystal Castles III is one of my most anticipated albums atm.

"Fear" is one of my fav Drake songs ever. |

"I didn't cry when Pac died... but I probably will when Hov does" is one of the most honest lyrics I've ever heard in a hip hop song. |
So apologies to bring squaredom into here. Anyone have any idea of decent rap books out there?

yeah. Check The Technique is excellent. It's like essays about the making of 30 or so classic albums. I loved Dirty South which is about the history of southern hip hop in all its facets. I've read a lot of others (Jay-Z's Decoded, Born to Hold Mics (about Illmatic), the Wu-Tang Bible, etc) but those 2 are dedfinitely ones that stand out to me most. |

"Rules of the Game" is one of the best Lil B tracks ever.
|
LA Weekly has their Classical Editor review Lil B's CHOICES AND FLOWERS:

and here's a long essay about how terrible Lil B is:

didn't anyone get Choices & Flowers? I remember him talking about making his "classical" album but I never even knew it came out. I'm gonna get it.

I have to admit, Lil B's insistence on releasing an awesome new LP and/or mix tape every two weeks is borderline infuriating. I'm always like, "no way.. Too soon... This one has to suck." And every time I'm pretty much blown away. It's exhausting. Doesn't ill B know that some of us are old farts, and have a hard enough time staying on top of our favorite artists without some punk shooting out new releases like the Beatles in the mid '60s? |
Quote:
hahahah right? How do you even be a Lil B fan? It's impossible to keep up. I can't actually get familiar with most of his tapes before another comes out. But my favs this year so far have been H2O, White Flame and (yup) God's Father. But jeez, these still waht? 6 or 7 weeks left? Who knows what he could put out. |
wow. the new Roc Marciano is incredible.
some prod by Q-Tip & the Alchemist, though most of it was done by Roc himself. and there is his 25 fav albums list which i found really cool. http://www.complex.com/music/2012/11...vorite-albums/ |
Wu-Block comes out next week, guy.

i'm more excited for Twelve Reason to Die tbh. |
I keep forgteting about 12 Reasons. When does it drop?
Wu-Block, I've seen the tracklist. Lotsa Wu and Ghost is on every track but 1 I think. |
Quote:
February '13, pretty soon. though i think i'll lose it only when he finally announces Blue & Cream. i think Rae wanna drop OB4CL3 next year, as well. |
December is gonna be a pretty big month for hip-hop.
new releases by Big Boi, Game, T.I. and Chief Keef. |
