does anyone else know what I mean? If you like a certain song or two by an artist A LOT but the rest of their work is just meh. I feel like rap is the worst genre for that.
 
Been bumping that Schoolboy Q album from January. Still likin' it, love the flow switch.
 
yeah camron is always entertaining. maybe not the most deep or thought provoking rapper but im not always tryin to listen to deep shit. another funny line from that song

"roll a coward up, he a chicken wrap"

I've been a fan since I can remember... me and my buddies used to sit around and share his freestyles. He deadpans everything perfectly, stretching out the words so that they sound clear and awkward. And regarding Jim Jones, he has replaced Camron in who I really listen to when no one is watching. He stuck with his style, even though it never sounded particularly catchy, and now it's honed into something so distinct and funny that it's on the same level as Camron.
 
^ I loved Tech in his rolling days. I haven't caught up on his material in years though.
 
Yeah! We were just talking about A Tribe Called Quest in the OD Social thing. This is the best thread in the NEMD Forum! I was scrolling through all the threads and I see BULLSHIT ones: Nicki Minaj, R Kelly? What the hell.
Then I saw "90s hip hop/rap". I smiled :)
 
^ Like anywhere else in the world, you have to filter through things to get to what you want.

R Kelly thread is actually very silly.
 
Is anyone else loving Drinking From The Sun by Hilltop Hoods or is that just me?!

These guys are amazing, used to never be too impressed until I heard Fifty in Five and this new album which is exceptional.

Apologies if there's a aussie hip hop thread.
 
mm

If there's one thing I wish I could do again for the first time, it's listen to 36 chambers, only built 4 cuban linx, and iron man. The wu tang collection is so vast and deep, it was my version of a comic book obsession. Rza kept the sound and themes coherent and ethereal at the same time. You knew that what you were listening to was real, and the fantasy elements served not as a front for insecuritiesbut as an illustartion of the realities these guys had to create inside their minds to block out the pain.
