Congrats, you guys do a great job.

Of course he ran off the stage, what did you expect him to do stand there and fist fight some herb who runs up on stage? BTW he came back out and performed Infrared. LMAOO

This is great.

One of the all time great albums and BCC from 93-97 were up there with whatever crew and the first installments from each group are some of the best albums of the 90's The show was really dope the other night. It felt like old NY in there for a few hours. Gonna listen to this on the train Monday mor...

Real story: My boy, who is a tough dude, been to Rikers a couple of times, was up north once etc. ended up one night in the early 2000's in Miami with Tyson coked up and everyone was already trippin on E and was smoking trees. Like 5 AM type shit. Mad people there- Tyson all the sudden started buggi...

Uff need a couple of these. Copping this weekend.

And yes, Fabio is a standout and the Gotti HBO movie sample is splendid.

Shit is crazy as I assumed it would be honestly. As I always said, Roc is great in doses, but those doses, especially the first couple of weeks after the project drops are always fantastic.

Grand Groove is my choice although I like all of these songs and Soul By The Pound Remix has extra nostalgic feelings for me.

LOL, fuck this scumbag

so many fuckin classics one of the GOAT

Great job but for me it should be more consolidated. As soon as the sample comes in you should have mixed in the Mos joint and then maybe went back and forth. Just my opinion. That is how he used to do it at live shows.

This dude continues to impress. I won't lie, I am slightly out of touch but always gain knowledge on the street level of Hip Hop from this board so thank you for putting me on to this dude.

Great track list as always- have a long ride out east this weekend will def be bumping this.

I used to hate on new music a few years ago but I've come to learn that I can almost always find something I like from any given artist. Even if a majority of the shit is trash, I will like a song here or there. Hip Hop as we all know it died a slow death around 1997. But to dwell on that shit is as...

This album got some spins from me man. I think it's cause I like Nore on DC. Some of it is cringe worthy but I was surprised it made it more than a week in my rotation.

Yeah Step, if we start listing songs there are so many. It was the last truly great year.

Also both Shabazz The Disciple 12 inches - Death Be The Penalty and Crime Sage were next shit.

Best non-album single cuts of 1995: AZ - Your World Don't Stop O.G version Biggie - Who Shot Ya? Biggie - One More Chance remix 2Pac & Dr. Dre - California Love Luniz ft. Dru Down etc etc - I Got 5 On It remix J-Live - Braggin' Writes Hmmm. What else? Mad Skillz- Skillz In 95 Artifacts- Who I Am Co...

Absolutely. Same thing happened to a lesser extent from Daily Operation to Hard to Earn. Shit got darker and harder between 92-94,95

g rap's album would have been much better if he replaced the regular versions of "fast life" and "it's a shame" with the "fast life" buckwild remix and "hey mister mister"...

Imagine a song like Hey Mister Mister coming out today?

This is really difficult. Mobb Deep Rae Smif N Wessun Gza Mic Geronimo # 5 could easily have been AZ, Big L, Fat Joe, G Rap, 2PAC, etc Cause Mic G is just a personal around the way favorite (and it is actually a really well put together album) and it's impossible not to have GZA in there. LS is a fa...

Perfect example for me is something like The Lox- We Are The Streets

Album was very good when it came out. Now I cringe when I hear some of it. Just did not age well but it was dope when it dropped.

Also, music doesn't "age", it is inherently good or bad from the start... You just realize years later that you were influenced by a fad... Everything ages and changes; music is entirely unique to every individual. You can listen to Beethoven or some fancy shit like that once every year and it woul...

Gucci with the outrageous hottake

I'm taking 94 by a slight margin because as far as albums go it really was kinda the best year in Hip Hop History. 93 was amazing in it's own way of course but I mean 94 is just too relentless.

Fuck, this is difficult.

Rass Kass
Fab 5
Crooklyn Dodgers

I think.

Can't Stop the Prophet remix is crazy tho. As is the Dynamite Soul Remix.
