Brand Nubian- "Don't Let It Go To Your Head"

As a dude who has lost a bunch of dough gambling on sports, I know that no one likes to talk about their losses... But I also know that only a dickhead bets $2 million on a series (especially when the Heat were laying 2 to 1 odds--a fact that this article omits). So I remember this asshole getting a...

.Q-Tip is better than Premier, imo, although that might be a bannable offense here. Ban that man! A few more: As I've said before, The Ruler's Back is a better album than Great Adventures of Slick Rick. Cappadonna is the third best rapper in the Wu. RZA (as a rapper) is highly overrated. The Leak B...

Cool, drizzle. If the moderators want to move it, feel free... I wasn't sure if the material was old enough for T.R.O.Y., I just knew that a few people would be somewhat interested...

Will a moderator please assist me in moving this post to T.R.O.Y.?

Here's an interview I did with 90's NYC rap group Dirty Face Angels about a year ago... If you never heard their music. I suggest looking into it. The link below contains MP3's of some of their songs. http://glockclipsandstocktips.com/2011/06/dirty-face-angels-interview/ In most hip hop historiansג€...

Yeah, I realize that not everyone was gonna be on board with those sentiments. I'm not sure if it's because I think The Sun Rises In The East isn't as good as everyone thinks it is or if Wrath of The Math is just so much better than people think it is. I love some songs on Sun... "Come Clean" and "D...

I'm gonna take Reasonable Doubt by a hair over Ironman. I won't select Amerikkka's Most, Word...Life, Sun Rises in the East, or College Dropout since I believe Death Certificate, Jewelz, Wrath of the Math, and Late Registration are all better than their predecessors. I know that the poll didn't say ...

Kreayshawn is NOT hot. She's not totally gross, but I'm turned off. V-Nasty is chopped. Pregnant at 15 and (allegedly) super gully? I'll uberpass. Lil Debbie, however, is smoking hot. Maybe not smoking, but certainly good enough for me to push up. I found this picture of her on another forum when sh...

Yo son, you don't know... That's Lil Debbie. She's their DJ! Since their crew's so tight, I imagine she's nice as hell.

She's like their Jam Master Jay, there's not a break that she can't catch...

I have to plead ignorance as far as who's down with who out there since I don't listen to any of them... Kreayshawn may have just directed Lil B's videos and that's all.

I'd be pleased to hear rappers are not co-signing this... But something tells me they are.

Drizzle, I'd estimate I've heard 2 or 3 Lil' B songs. It's not my cup of tea and I wouldn't endorse it, but I'm not gonna start a thread about him being the worst rapper ever. He's not THAT bad. V-Nasty IS that bad. The worst rapper ever kind of bad. Sylissez, why would I move my thread to that boar...

Wow. Hip hop in 2011. Wow. So I guess this chick is down with Kreayshawn and her stupid "White Girl Mob". I'm not totally up on these lames but I guess they're down with Lil' B and someone said they were loosely connected with Odd Future. I've been avoiding giving Odd Future any burn because their f...

Battlecat, good looking on peeping Archetype's "Bleed For Them". I'm very proud of that album.

Anyone who wants to check it out there's a DL link on page 36 of the uploading thread (and plenty of copies on Amazon for like a dollar)...

As I said earlier, I emailed an administrator to ask if this post would be cool. I was granted permission and was grateful.

No disrespect taken, blessingindisguise, as I would never want to contribute to any kind of spam on this board.

I apologize for the unintentional re-bump.

I think Rakim went through all of Paid in Full last year, plus a couple from later albums. KRS One was/is intergalactic. Wu did all of 36 minus a few verses maybe. Didn't catch all of snoop's set because I was beat, but he was supposed to do all of Doggy Style and was keeping at it when I left. If ...

I'm only gonna bump this once because it was a post I made a month ago. I hope some of you will take the time to listen...

Lauryn Hill was easily the worst part of last year's performance. Before the line-up was announced, there were a lot of Beastie Boys headlining rumors circulating and I was really hoping it was true. Nonetheless, this line up's dope. If you don't think so, we probably don't like a lot of the same mu...

Currensy-- I like a few of the songs I heard with Ski Beatz. Atmosphere-- The Lucy Ford EP. Big krit-- Haven't check it out. KRS-1-- "Love's Gonna Get You (Material Love)" Lil wayne-- Not a fan. Super not a fan. Mic geronimo- "Masta I.C."... Vendetta's not as bad as it's been made out to be. Cormega...

I'm a fan of Rapper Noyd but he didn't reach his expectations. First of all, I respect being able to make music 15 years but this isn't the NBA--being in the game 15 years isn't super difficult, especially when you don't sell records for 13 of them. Channel Live still make records! Expectations were...

I get the Young Zee love but what about the Pacer? I always thought there wasn't a question that he was the dopest in the crew. I would include him more in the "should've been bigger" thread than the "never lived up to expectations" thread. He made a bunch of dope shit whether people appreciated it ...

I'm surprised how many people here are saying shit like they're unfamiliar with PE, Del, and Brand Nubian records. I'm not standing on a pedestal because for some of the younger dudes--I get it; PE and Brand Nubian haven't been making major moves in the last 13 years. But I'm 31, and if you're my ag...

A Tribe Called Quest - Low End Theory De La Soul - De La Soul Is Dead Brand Nubian - One For All MF Doom - Madvillainy Del The Funky Homosapien - Deltron 3030 Ice Cube - Death Certificate Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt Nas - Illmatic Redman - Muddy Waters Wu-Tang Clan...

Rick Ross? Not a fan. I hate when he works with artists I like. I don't want to hear him on my Ipod. Stay off the Rae and Kanye albums- I'm trying to keep you at bay. With that said, Rick Ross IS NOT running on fumes. His career seems to be going in the right direction. His label won't win though. I...

First of all, I'd like to let it be known that I sought out permission from a moderator before I posted this because I'm not trying to fuck up the board here since it's like the only rap board I go on. Many years ago, my friends and I started a small label Dekagon Records. We've had some success wit...

"Teenage Love" is probably my favorite song on Great Adventures. It rarely changes and is definitely a high point. On Ruler's Back, my favorite song is "Venus". Right now. But it could be "Bond" one day, "Moses" the next, and "Runaway" the day after that. All of the songs (with the exception of the ...

As far as opinions that no one will agree with, I enjoy Slick Rick's second album more than the first. I'm not gonna argue the point, I'm just saying that I've listened to The Ruler's Back more than Great Adventures consistently for more than the last ten years. It just has more replay value to me a...

I picked Enta Da Stage. Buhloone Mindstate and Hard To Earn were the only other two I would consider there although those albums are all exceptional.

I can't believe five people picked Casual. Easily last place on my list.

I vehemently disagree with anyone who thinks Life After Death is better than Ready To Die. Good call on Clipse, Del, and Mobb Deep. I agree that both Tribe and De La second albums are better than the debuts. How about... Keith Murray- Enigma 7L & Esoteric- Dangerous Connection Would you count Slum V...

This is really dope... How's the album? Thoughts?

and also I am a fan of the wit of Paul Barman and he should have blown up more than he did :cheers: I'll second Paul Barman. Obviously I didn't think he would win over die-hard Sheek Louch fans (not that a group of ten people is something one should work hard to win over), but he's a very creative ...
