If you remember what happened when both of these records dropped, they weren't much celebrated or considered as instant classics. Dumbest post of the year? Yeah, that guy is all types of stupid. Impressively stupid. Were you around when "The chronic" dropped? Even The Source had to correct their re...

the chronic and , dre 2001, were definitive because they just were, we all have our memories listening to that shit and being wowed all the way through If you remember what happened when both of these records dropped, they weren't much celebrated or considered as instant classics. It took a while. ...

Can't pick up one specific song right now, album is banging from start to finish and you can't really find 2 tracks with similar moods on it.

We lost one of the most, if not the one, brutally honest artists ever. Who else had the balls to say "I'm the brokest Rapper you know" before him? No-fuckin'-body. May he rest in peace, condolences to his family.

@freezy i like the beats too but you gotta admit, when talking to my diary comes on you're like oh..... there's dre Honestly, when "Talking to my diary" came on, I was like "OK, I just heard one of the best pieces of music I've heard in my life" lol. I can totally understand what bothered you thoug...

chronic and 2001 have the definitive dr dre style, this does not I strongly disagree. Dre's the kind of guy to have recorded a trillion solo songs in his lifetime, how many of these did we get a chance to hear? Not even a hundred. "Compton" is just the latest phase on his musical path, and it's fuc...

Thanks a lot Basta! Honestly, I really doubt it was recorded in 1992, most of these tracks definitely sound like something from the mid-90's. "Ya too strong", "Everybody wants to be a G" or "Ups and downs" (with a Snoop Dogg cameo and Soopafly's name being shouted) are perfect examples. Which makes ...

They didn't even reached $50,000, I guess this final album is doomed for good. Unless 'Face changes his mind and decides to jump in just for the thrill of one last epic album, but I highly doubt it. That's fucked up.

lol, I really like that album. The crossover west-coast stuff was a total failure, but listen to "Ready Or Not", "No Pain" and "Neva Faded", even the last 2 tracks (which were clearly filler) Yes Ya'll and What U See. Might not have aged really well, but that's authentic east coast shit right there...

I understand the point Joe was trying to make, but if you listen to Master Ace's 2nd album, a lot of the tracks are east-coast rooted heavy bass joints, there were only a few tracks that had a west-coast tinge to them. The rest was unmistakably NY. Yup. And most of these tracks were less embarassin...

You never heard "Top ten list"?

Coming from your mormon ass I'll take that as a compliment.

Just talked to him a few days ago, I was like "It's cool to be teasing us about the albums, but now we need release dates!", and he told me it would drop for sure. He doesn't know for sure if it will only be digital or if physical copies will be pressed up, wait & see.

Great, another mormon.

That's what I fear. But even if that's the case, I'll buy the CD. Better than nothing.

Yup, I hope they won't master from the Tape that was used for the 2 vinyls, because the sound quality was not that good.

Did any of y'all manage to download Hawk's mixtape? Seems like it's only up for streaming.

This one was real dope also, love the way they played with this vocal sample :

Should have simply titled it "Lost", it gave a perfect description of his current mindstate.

Black Brut on the mic, Zekwé Ramos on the beat. Highly addictive.

Well, you know how it goes... Ego is mankind's worst enemy.

She said in the interview w Werner motown let her keep the masters. From what she told me, every artist involved (producers, guests) have been paid in advance by the label, which is definitely a good point if she eventually decides to release it. As long as she makes sure the credits are right so p...

If Paula herself doesn't have this - how can she be able to release this "one day" ? Or what that "gave her a helping hand with this shelved album" means if she still doesn't have this - even after that "helping hand"? Just wondering to get the facts straight... Not owning a promo CD doesn't mean s...

Yeah, I've been in touch with Paula the last 2 years, I arranged her interview with Werner Von Wallenrod and gave her a helping hand with this shelved album. One indie label seemed really interested, but meanwhile she apparently signed a deal to get her rap career back on track, and we didn't talk a...

As far as I know, Paula doesn't even have this CD. That's crazy.
