Many thanks for the KMD & Slick Rick guys

Had this playing in my head this morning for some reason. Nice Diamond D produced standout track off of the fairly average Shadz of Lingo album.

Rocks the same break as Gang Starr 2 Deep

When I first heard this album I didn't listen to this song much.. Please don't hate me but I actually think it's the weakest track on that album. Maybe it's the singing (or warbling) that ruins it for me but compared to the rest of the album, it doesn't quite stand out for me. I do think that Mic G...

@ HeRBaN LyRiX - Really cool to see someone giving this album a bit of love. This was a firm favourite of mine back then, I still have the cassette somewhere. I still think it's an unfairly overlooked album. Slightly dated sounding now but aged a lot better than others from the same era. His follow ...

That's fucking dreadful. Shit looks & sounds like a GAP advert.

Cycles - classic. RIP.

I'm a bit late on this one with most of the albums that I would have put in my top ten having already been mentioned (esp. KMD - Black Bastards, Pos K, Casual - Fear Itself, Smif N Wessun). The albums below are off the top of my head so I'm sure I've missed out some gems but I don't have access to m...

Great song. This and Ill Bill's 'Power' feat. OC & Cormega are my fave tracks of the year so far.

Fuck Compton - one of my favourite tracks from 91. Ultramag - one of my favourite groups of all time.

Very sad. R.I.P.

Unreleased Masta Ace material from '92 just released over at Chopped . http://www.choppedherringrecords.com/uploads/images/chacestickres_400.jpg Damn! I was bed-ridden with a flu for a few days and almost missed this! Coloured vinyl appears to be sold out already but I managed to place my order for...

EPMD all the way. Never was a big Beastie Boys fan, although admittedly Ill Communication was a good album.

Man, tell me about it, I regret it already. Giving them away is almost like taking the pet dog to the vet to be put down! However various circumstances force me to part with them.

I'll be selling off my Raekwon 'Cuban Linx' original purple tape shortly. Does anyone know roughly how much $$$ this goes for at the moment? I think someone from the board told me last year but I couldn't find my tape back then! http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/6560/pc270906.th.jpg I also have a ...

re: file sharing - I use this one: www.wetransfer.com
There's a 2Gb upload limit but so far I've not come across any other restrictions.
Dropbox still limits you with a free account after a while.

Man, so many good albums in there and so many great memories (I was 16 when these came out). It's quite tough, but I'll go with these as a Top 5: 1. Souls of Mischief - 93 'til Infinity 2. A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders 3. Wu Tang Clan - Enter The Wu-Tang 4. Del The Funky Homosapien - No ...

Likewise, thanks for the Scars & Pain,

Black Mafia Life is criminally under-appreciated in my opinion. I'll stick my neck out and say that it's one of the best 1990s West Coast albums ever. I would love to give BML my vote but In God... was just such a killer album. I loved how militant it was compared to One For All. Video version or Di...

Ice T. Cold Chillin was easily the best record label of it's time but there's nothing on Biz's album that can fuck with tracks like Hit The Deck, Lethal Weapon or This One's For Me.

Apart from the two bullshit, generic "party joints" - 'Get Your Groove On' & 'Move Ya Body' the Mad Skillz album was and still is a solid listen. Admittedly, his full potential was not realized on the album. He was capable of better, as were the producers on the album, but my vote still goes to Skil...

That's Raw Breed 'Rollin Deep' from 1992

Big Daddy Kane 'Mr. Pitiful'

Easily Positive K for me. I was always disappointed that he never followed up with another album back then. Production and rhymes on Skills were impeccable and the album has aged far better than The Goats IMO.

Definitely Dare Iz A Darkside. At the time it was a little difficult to get into and a lot of the album appeared a bit...samey..but now I can definitely appreciate those albums that were harder to digest and not immediately accessible. Behind Bars was a major disappointment especially after tracks l...

Chi Ali over 9th Wonder beats...should be interesting and looking forward, though admittedly I'd much rather hear some collabos & beats from his old Native Tongues fam.

Very difficult one as 'Power' is my favourite Ice-T album but I went with Eazy E.
