It's Bigger than "The Hip-Hop Thread"

I like How I Got Over, but Im not hella all over it or anything, it's the same way I feel about Reflection Eternal's new one.

I actually recently discovered Crown City Rockers released an album last year.

I gave it my first listen yesterday, and as a group who's been compared to Roots,

IMO it's waaay better than HIGO.

but I definitely needa give it a few more listens before I kno for sure.

Thanks for introducing me to that Ski Beats mixtape, will definitely be looking out for that.

Also, where is that Curren$y track "Nothin' But Us" from?
 
a couple of recommendations I picked up on the neogaf, thought Id pass them along to yallz!

up-SHAD_TSOL_web.jpg


Shad - TSOL

who is this guy? sum canadian? Never heard about him, but a lot of ppl were cosigning him so I checked the record out.

The Illz - The Pursuit LP

also never heard of this, but I really liked the cover and it was free so I downloaded it. Very glad that I did!! The dood kinda sounds like Big Pooh, with a dash of Big Noyd.

and if u havent heard Rakaa's Crown of Thorns yet, get it.

Im heavy rotationing this record for the past few weeks. AOTY material for me.
 
Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou for that Shad album. Best part is those aren't even the best songs on the album.

Shakaa album was good. Production is good, but forgettable.

i like Damian's flow. It has that jamaican accent in there. pretty cool.
but yeah, this song is so powerful...
damn..

Anyways, i grabbed this compilation of albums from this site from which seems are the essentials of hip hop.
pretty good track, map or referral as to know the albums that you need to at least listen.

pretty solid list..i have about 25 of these albums from about...102 albums?
lol

I also like that Rock The Bells lineup
The ticket, however, is around 100 dollars :drool:
Damn it. i bought the Plastic Beach ticket for NYC already. :bomb:
 
I do not recognize:

row 5 column 3

row 4 column 6

row 7 column 5

row 16 column 1

any help??

but yah, definitely a good list. I can think of lots of stuff that's missing, but always good to know there's still stuff out there I havent heard yet.

discovering old music is the best thing!!
 
85 albums.. I own 64 of them... yikes. actually it's 84 albums, Ghostface is on there twice.

Decent list, that M.I.C. album is straight up not good. there's a little bit of DOOM/Madlib dick jocking on that. and I'm a huge DOOM/Stones Throw fan.

[quote name='JEKKI']I do not recognize:

row 5 column 3 - DJ Shadow - Endtroducing

row 4 column 6 - Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique

row 7 column 5 - can't see it barely haha

row 16 column 1 - have never seen that before either

any help??[/QUOTE]
 
Yes.
16-1 is Transitions by Arts the Beatdoctor
and
7-5 is Metaphorical Music by Nujabes
i recognized that nujabes artistic album pattern
 
I went to Rock The Bells DC.
Murs & 9th = awesome
Jedi Mind Tricks I wasn't a fan until yesterday seeing them live was mad cool.
Thats all i saw on the Paid Dues stage. On the Main stage ATCQ was the best they brought out busta and shut it down. Q-Tip took off his pants and was rolling in boxers LMAO!!!!!!! The biggest disappointment was Lauryn Hill she Looked and Sounded TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! She was late they skipped over her and Tribe came on. Then she came out and it was bad. Nas had to save her!

[quote name='DestroVega']new Kanye track Monster on his blog... shit is bananas.

http://www.kanyeuniversecity.com/blog/[/QUOTE]

Straight ass beat but everything else fell a little short for me after Ye's verse (pharaoah / sarcophagus set up was dope). Ross and Bon's contributions were borderline irrelevant. I'm so used to Jay upstaging Kanye on his own shit I sort of wish he'd kept up with tradition and I haven't felt Minaj since day one so not much has changed there. Still feeling her hot air balloon breasted self and that retarded ass air-headed delivery of hers WAAAAYYYY too much.

The Beanie shots plastered on Nah Right's comment box are pure LOL though for real.
 
[quote name='senorwoohoo']Ski Beatz dropped and the beats are dope but the Mos Def vocals have been removed...super SUPERLAME[/QUOTE]
This was very disappointing. I'll probably just replace it with one of the many versions with the vocals that is floating around the web.

In other news, Cube's new one is good. Very much in line with his previous one in terms of quality, consistency and variety with more West Coast flavor (duh).
 
I've spent like the last whole month listening to the two Typical Cats records for my first time ever...

I actually think this year has had a lot of great hip-hop releases... like A LOT of stuff Im really feeling,

but got damn!! These 2 records destroy anything I have listened to all year!!

seriously... Im so excited now coz I kno they got a shyt ton of solo stuff!! I feel like I found a fukkyn treasure chest full of classic underground hiphop!!
 
There is this "deal" that i managed to grab.

http://www.undergroundhiphop.com/st...-Bombay-LIMITED-EDITION-39.97&UPC=HLLABB712HT

i been contemplating this nicely designed Hieroglyphics hat for 40 and like 10 more for shipping on hellatight.com for quite a while

however, on ughh.com, you can grab one and add a shirt or anything above 10 dollars and get free shipping

so i grabbed this shirt as well

ANTI09TS-2-Full_Front.jpg


also, you can add a "Best of" cd of known artists when you spend 35-50 or more.
i grabbed a Best of People under the Stairs CD since i heard of their group before but never heard their music.

very pleased with my 56 bucks purchase and free shipping :D
 
The Hiero fitted would be a delicious edition to my collection but I can't justify dropping $50 on it yet. Checked out the vid though so I'd best get off my ass to set up this new monitor later so I can hear that long awaited Deltron shit.
