The NZA Posted June 20, 2011 Author Posted June 20, 2011 needed more bad lil wayne similes; ODB lyrics are to be studied only by future generations. redman answers all his math questions with the classic: "I scored 1.1 on my SAT/And still push a whip with a right and left AC" never even heard the vanilla ice on em diss, that's....something.

Thelogan Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 [/i]never even heard the vanilla ice on em diss Neither had anyone else, unless you count his mom. Quote
The NZA Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 method man, U-godzilla & Masta Killah (though he's lazy here) freestyle. tyler fans, skip to @ 8:00 for meth tearing up the Yonkers beat. Quote
Thelogan Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 Has it been 10 years already? That's some shit. Quote
The NZA Posted June 25, 2011 Author Posted June 25, 2011 and now something different: Who is Cocaine 80s you ask, well it's a collective including: No I.D., Common, Steve Wyreman, Rob Kinelski, Kevin Randolph, James Fauntleroy, Makeba and many more." The feature single is the track Summer Madness performed by Common. Quote
The NZA Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 hah, nice track axels. enjoying EL-P tonight, shit's kinda hard...some of you would dig it, ill put up tracks another time. meanwhile: stay classy, BET. http://www.dailymotion.com/embed/video/xjju49"><br /><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xjju49_211626225543_webcam" target="_blank">211626225543</a> <i>by <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/yardie4lifever2" target="_blank">yardie4lifever2</a></i> Quote
Thelogan Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 I like EL-P, haven't heard/knew about new stuff, but I liked Fantastic Damage. My only beef with him is that he kind of has that same style as a lot of the Definitive Jux guys. Or at least like Aesop Rock. Quote
The NZA Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 nice! i'm literally going through Fantastic Damage right now, then onto I'll sleep when you're dead. which is funny, cause ive yet to get into any Jux or Aesop at all. if you got any favorites, feel free to post em, man! Quote
Thelogan Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Definitive Jux is the label, a lot of the guys seem to have the same sort of flow, a bit like Sage Francis (who I also like). It's really hard to explain, but you'll probably recognize it when you hear enough. It's like a genre in and of itself. The following aren't necessarily examples of that, it's really more of a broad feel. "A homophobic rapper, unaware of the graphic nature of phallic symbols" A lot of great lines in that one. And another EL-P favorite, even though you've already heard it. 1 Quote
The NZA Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 good post. i'm keeping both EL-P albums, good shit when you're in the mood. and yeah, i think it was actually Jax that put me onto Sage Francis a while back, good stuff. trying to kill my massive hip-hop backlog...logans, which of these Saul Williams albums are his best? ive got amethyst rock star, not in my name, (self-titled) and inevitable rise & fall of niggy. thoughts? Quote
Thelogan Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Self Titled, but Amethyst Rockstar has some real gems that make it a very close second. Very, very close, now that I'm thinking about it. Those are the best two, though. imo. Quote
The NZA Posted June 29, 2011 Author Posted June 29, 2011 formerly unreleased track: 2Pac - Watch ya mouth its another Dre/Nas diss, with De La (?), wendy williams and others thrown in for good measure. personally, i think this makaveli era stuff wasn't his best work (emo-pac's too angry/kinda wastes his talent IMO), but it's interesting to see it leak all this time later. Quote
The NZA Posted June 29, 2011 Author Posted June 29, 2011 Lloyd - Dedication to my ex (miss that) - featuring Andre 3000 it's not amazing, but really, anything 3k even tries on these days is something, considering the last thing i think he did was some remix for kei$ha... Quote
The NZA Posted July 2, 2011 Author Posted July 2, 2011 Common featuring Nas - Ghetto Dreams (produced by No I.D.) track's nice, and Nas verse...he's stepping his shit back up lately. looking forward to his next album now. Quote
The NZA Posted July 7, 2011 Author Posted July 7, 2011 speaking of NO I.D. (godfather of chicago hip-hop, Kanye's mentor), dude's officially producing Common's next album. this is a time for rejoicing. on the note of great producers, some quality Alchemist love. ps FUUUUUUUUUUUUU Quote
The NZA Posted July 9, 2011 Author Posted July 9, 2011 ^ tonight i'm bumping Shabazz Palaces - Black Up, experimental hip-hop that's hard to recommend on here until i get a better feel for what'd work for some of you guys. as it stands, i'd only pitch it to DoJ to try out & see his thoughts at the moment. for reference, the MC hails from Diggable Planets (cool like that, etc). following that: Cocaine 80's (NO I.D. mixtape, impressions forthcoming), a Tyler summer mix and Wacka Flocka Flame - Flockaveli (chopped & screwed) just to see if i like it that way, that style made me like shit i wouldn't otherwise like say Mike Jones (WHO?!) in news more people give a fuck about - Outkast comin back?! Hip Hop Wired is here to exclusively report that Outkast's Big Boi & Andre 3000 will both have solo albums out by the end of 2011 & the duo will also release an album under Outkast by early 2012. HHW claims their "Rock solid industry source" has had "close contact with one of the members of the group," and man I surely hope this is all true. dre 3k has been kinda coasting since about '03 or so, but again any of you that slept on Boi's Sir Lucious Left Foot last year missed out. i need more of both of them, and so do you. *edit oh shit, this Cocaine 80s tape goes. check this out & get hyped about the upcoming Common/NO I.D. album with me: i love these summer tracks.
