With Nas, IMO, he needs to flow over old school sounding drums. Simple boom bap cadence. The music can be whatever, but underneath needs to be drums that are consistent and on time throughout. He sounded terrible at times on that Khaled shit because it was all over the place. I read that he now writ...

Mass Appeal posted about this on their IG so it must be true. I'm pretty shocked right now to be honest.

The last two Kanye albums grew on me. Took longer for Yeezus. I initially liked some of TLOP, but I grew to love a lot of it, especially after he added Facts and Saint Pablo.

I have a hard time believing this. After all this time out of nowhere Nas is dropping an album entirely produced by Kanye? Maybe 2 tracks, but an entire album?

^ are you kidding me? Half those of those would be among the worst on AEOM. I'm not, but again, I'm biased so my opinion is not the same as someone who is either objective or a big PAC fan. Again, at that point I hated PAC and Death Row so my listening experience then or even now is tainted with th...

Just tweeted that he hand produced all the albums he mentioned and also Nas dropping June 15th

AEOM is a double album, yet there are a higher number of bad songs on MATW :killacam: here's a new question: is the best song on MATW better than the best song on AEOM? So Many Tears Temptations Lord Knows Dear Mama Old School Death Around The Corner I'd rather hear these song than probably any son...

behave yourself at other ppls parties man

I guess if you listen to 2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted with a straight face I can see your point.

Someone had this on today at a BBQ and then I asked them to play Me Against The World and I don't even understand someone saying AEOM is his best record.

According to his Twitter, Kanye new album will be out June 1st and is 7 tracks.

Also, he and Cudi have a group called Kids See Ghosts and their album is dropping June 8th.

I don't know, man. I've become a pretty huge REM fan in recent years, no homo. The hits always held me back, but then I dove in and found out that they got like 100 good songs. I'm all up in the unreleased tracks and bootlegs and what not. Not sure if I'm just getting old (about to turn 40), but I ...

Mix 1 - Sermon sounded a bit off beat. Hook needs that extra horn/synth whatever it is sound the OG has for effect. Everyone aside from Sermon sounds great.

Mix 2 works better so gets my vote but you still need that extra piece in the hook imo.

Any way to throw these on youtube or something? Kinda much to expect people to DL and listen to both tracks. Much easier if they can just listen real quick right here in the thread. For example I am at the office and def can't download at the moment. Just a thought.

Can't wait to listen this weekend.

Also Cardi will never, ever spit anything as good as Nicki did on Monster.

Plus it is pretty plain to see that Cardi barely writes her own rhymes/songs. Not that YM wasn't a driving force behind Nicki, and probably helped her with some rhymes, but Cardi just has this machine behind her that has taken her from hood rat stripper to household name in a short amount of time. N...

Hair and make up is abbreviated H&MU not H&M. Anyone who see's H&M is certainly going to think H&M the retailer.

ask and you shall receive lol

Don't care much for either but in party mode I will rock with both, drink some champagne, smoke a cigar, and dance with a shorty. I generally like to put good vibes out into the world and I don't hate just to hate so I'm happy for both to be successful but for the record, who do you prefer? :phila: ...

from the list..

No. It's a terrible album for a host of reasons: Mos Def, the production etc. Your taste is a crime against humanity.

lol. stop.

Gotta add Mos Def - The Ecstatic to this list. Shit is superb after some nervous releases.

Another has to be Rakim 18th letter.

No doubt. Good one. And Droogs, yes it is a classic- modern day at least, but likely overall.

Was thinking about this today. Are there many? Didn't really rack my brain or go through my itunes, but name some..

LL - Mama Said is first and foremost to me.

Nas- Stillmatic

Brand Nubian- Foundation--- maybe??

What do you think?

Obviously any answer is probably right, but I rolled with Naughty. Treach is so good on this and is the man. But there is no wrong answer here.

They're all favorites tho..

Listened to half of this and superb as ever. Getting through yours ( or a lot of podcasts these days) is often a daunting task, but the end result is always well worth it. Great job as usual.
