Unrelated to the above trashtalk;

I thought DangerDoom's substance was actually really good, it was just practically ruined by those awful skits.

skits aimed at people who watch cartoons and are casual hip hop fans at best, what an idea

I thought Grind Date was nice. Funniest thing was Ghostface putting out that "pretty toney shoulda got his dough" solo version of the track from it, apparently dissing de la... They should leak or put out AOI vol 3 somehow, just for completeness. I can't stand an incomplete trilogy. That never leake...

Ha I knew I was being a little reckless thinking they were in the same year, I thought they were in the same school year at least maybe...I merged them in my mind since 97-98 was the era when I'd walk to the store on the release dates, sometimes at midnight. I remember a ton of people in the store a...

I was always bothered by the title "Invetro" because it showed an obvious lack of understanding of what the term "In vitro" means. Although people love to give some convoluted explanation that is really a stretch. 'see the fetus is in such a terrible environment it's like it's an artificial lab sett...

I'm really impressed with Factor. Only Death Can Kill You was really good - that, Soul Doubt, and Speakerface are Awol's best albums IMO. Also outstanding is Myka 9 "1969" mostly produced by Factor (if not exclusively by him?). I didn't like that Chandelier EP as much by comparison though. But I'm d...

Thanks for upping that Why, I barely knew that and Leaving You Again existed. Maybe we'll track down some of the other tracks eventually. As far as ebay, one frustrating thing is that the release of "Maximum Strength 2008" really confounds ebay searches. btw does anyone know if the version of "Ghett...

Thanks for the info! I had no idea that the version of Why had nothing to do with the sneak attack track. The tracks you mention as definitely being from the album all were on the 2008 tracklist. I always thought Knowledge Reigns Supreme and Aquarius were probably from the album since they were on J...

I think hiphopsite offered some sort of lost del demos as a bonus with some releae a while back; I used to grab tons of those special offers but missed out on that one. I think I got some lost del demos off the net but wasn't sure if it matched the tracklist or what.

Here are the lyrics from "Only One" from ohhla.com. It's obviously different from the track on kristyles, and sounds pretty nice from the lyrics. It says transcribed by ohhla.com, does that mean flash himself had the 12" and transcribed it? I haven't been in touch with that guy for maybe 10 years. I...

Thanks for upping that; doesn't seem like it fits any of the missing tracks from the planned re-release though. btw, weren't all the tracks from big timer on the strictly for the breakdancers/emcees cd? I have the full tracks on tape somewhere, but honestly I won't be able to do any tape ripping or ...

Oh yeah, I never heard (of) that Patternfall Wars album...but a reference to the Chronicles of Amber??? I love those books, in fact I just got my wife started reading them yesterday.

Oh, nice! I have Stop the World on CD, nice album...I only had a dub of 30 Daze, that one song on there was fantastic, what was it called, eulogy or something? (too lazy to check the tracklist before I post)...gotta download those nother ones though, thanks!

I was just flipping through the old thread - I should dig up the Double Trouble single with Mad Lion - only one version is in the other thread - I remember there were multiple vastly different mixes with different lyrics that were all great (well, at least two). Can anyone reup the Outta Here demo t...

For some reason I thought Bread and Jelly was a Japan only 12". I could be wrong. So this song I thought was a rare gem is on itunes? Pretty funny! Travellin Man remix was always a huge favorite of mine too. Say what do you recommend for ripping from vinyl? I always just used a microphone jack on th...

You are thinking of "Musically Inclined" from the Funky Precedent compilation. Great song. I think it was on one of the Making Tracks albums too. "I'm from a wicked" clearly was direct at ATCQ. "it's not a quest, but a long road, when i see the west serving you at project blowed, you gon' bust my we...

Nah "Intelligent Wise" is almost certainly the same as "High School Rock" from the High School High soundtrack with the Rakim vocal sample. but it certainly confounds google searches for the 12", you just get Conscious Style w/PRT and Wise Intelligent (what a great album that was!) "Only One" from t...

Bread and Jelly feat Volume 10 is the joint!!! I'm doing to d/l this in case anything else on here is as strong as that. Maybe your sound quality is better on Bread and Jelly, although I think my copy is pretty good. I want to find the vinyl for that - I think that's pretty rare though, never seen i...

Shit, you're right!!! It WAS Van Gough. haha I don't even have the MP3 album of it, any good??? Is it that big of a deal that I passed on it... It has its moments, not spectacular, but it has some very good moments like "TV Guide". Goldyn Chyld overlaps but has a few more very nice moments like "Th...

I hate myself for this, but back in the early 2000's I saw a rare promo "test press" type copy of the album on CD from Priority Records at Amoeba Records in SF for like $12 used, and my dumbass passed. *sh...

The real version of Ras Kass' Goldyn Chyld LP, anyone around here have that??

What I'm looking for is the real version of Ras Kass's "Goldyn Chyld" album - NOT the version that's floating all over the internet - that one is pieced together with tracks from Van Gogh and extras. The real version should have an Xzibit sample rather than Nas on the Goldyn Chyld rmx, and lord know...

I wanted to jump in and add some stuff in that last KRS thread but my account took a while to get activated. Here was a little compilation I made of all the white label / unreleased joints from this time - some of these were upped in the other thead, I figured I'd up the whole thing (I think the sou...
