De La Soul Is Dead set a standard for skits on albums. Definitely my pick.

pretty ill shit

their output is crazy. fuckin' with the hustle on their part.

Yeah I noticed that, too. That and the song with Lil Wayne and that PURE song can go. Other than that, outside of the OBFCL albums, he got the production mostly right on this one and rapped his ass off, imo.

It was good to chop it up with at SXSW, Mike, about everything and what you're doing at UGHH. And I'm glad you did what I requested and bragged about your Miami vacation. Good shit, bruh.

+ Yelawolf Yelawolf ended up doing the Kid Rock thing and making more songs geared for the white people who like rock, country, and Americana shit. But Yela can rap circles around Kid Rock no question. I don't know if that pleased Shady and Interscope but it looks like he is still there. Slaughterh...

Actual lyrics pulled her card. But let's never bring this Ether beat up again. It was terrible back then and its terrible now. Nas killed it and made it what it is. But the beat sucks by itself.

Doing a show with him on Feb. 4th. Dude is nice.

Voting for the homie, Hezekiah. Salute for including him on the list.

Oakland Blackouts. That beat was fiyah. Del and Opio trading off bars was crazy to me.

I don't know what it is but I did not rush to check out that new YG. I'll give it a listen finally today because I liked the last one. Some reason, I was not trying to hear the new shit. Probably because I was listening to the new Joe Budden, Isaiah Rashad, Schoolboy Q, Tribe, and Z-Ro albums way mo...

Hezekiah
"GODS" [EP]
- features Peedi Crakk, Bilal, Blu, T3 of Slum Village, Ishe, Freeway, STS, Queen Jo, and The Bul Rey

Was my fav. Roots album by them until Game Theory and How I Got Over came into the picture. The title track having bagpipes in it always fucked my head up. Pretty different and innovative at the time.

Felt like this was the best one as far as the beats go. And Killer Mike delivered his best verses on this one. El-P did ok on the verses but I think I liked his verses more on the first two. Especially the second one. I feel like he really went in on that one. "Call Ticketron" is definitely one of m...

Stumbled upon this. Not bad at all. Forgot when I had heard about this dude before but I dig this.

This forum is comprised of many posters who just have an inability of publicly supporting one another. Which is ironic when you consider the album title. I am reminded of this every few years or so. I see all the views, all the link backs and know people are listening directly from this site, but o...

Wait, you "really enjoyed" Jarobi's rapping on this album Ardamus? Yeah I did for the most part. Didn't say it was the best in the world but he didn't ruin the tracks. My opinion. I just wanted to make sure I understood that. Jarobi isn't really a rapper, he is a friend and it was kinda like here b...

Yeah I did for the most part. Didn't say it was the best in the world but he didn't ruin the tracks. My opinion.

Salute to listing these albums. I forgot some of these even dropped. Definitely voted Denzel Curry, Onry Ozzborn, J-Zone, Sims, Kemba, Yoni & Geti, and Elzhi.

Another option would've been "it's really a Kamaal The Abstract album featuring members of Tribe". Just sayin'. True. This thread wasn't really gonna be about getting into all that, though I do agree. Interesting to see it tied up as to whether or not the new one is better than BR&L. The Take It Pe...

There is only so much you can monetize on a message board. Besides, this forum, even in the current state get more visitors than that forum and they're backed by a store. I'm telling you, the store is what makes that site valuable. The outlet it gives artists to sell their products directly is why ...

Hold up, don't Slug run Fifth Element? Guess they were willing to help regardless of comp, too.

Felt like TDE ran shit. Voted Isaiah and Schoolboy.
Ab-Soul's shit was pretty good, too, imo.

Voted Blueprint, Royce, and T.I.
Especially T.I's EP. "Warzone" to me was the best song that came out all year.

Another option would've been "it's really a Kamaal The Abstract album featuring members of Tribe". Just sayin'.
But I voted better than Love Movement and Beats, Rhymes, and Life.

Its crazy, I haven't kept up with DIEMON as much but Russ blew up. Salute.

good shit, mike.
