Hip Hop

shakepeare's got nothing on the rza or the gza

meh. he used words longer than 'yo' and uhhhh

although this was fire:

In '93, Wu-Tang Clan dropped their first LP
We went platinum, whoo-peesh, yeah we flatten 'em
Pockets got fat and um, went and got Cap and 'em
Staten's on the map and um, Brooklyn Zu is bombin' 'em
All around the world, Killa Beez start swarmin' 'em
You can't stop us, you can't block us
Rock us or mock us, knock us or top us
Better sit back and watch us...

RATKING is killing it in nyc right now. played a show last night that was insane

I've been listening to this a lot lately. Something about it so good right now.

Far better than the majority of the new releases I've heard over the last year or 2.

Snow Beach is such a great track.

Not listened to it yet, but The Roots new album is streaming now.

Isaiah Rashad - Soliloquy - YouTube

The newish album by Open Mike Eagle, Dark Comedy, is a good listen.

I thought this song was funny (the video though was a little bit too 'high concept'). Apparently Hannibal Buress can rap. I didn't know.

Ah cheers man, I should upload mine as one file.

Love this tune at the minute

Jeru The Damaja - You Can't Stop The Prophet - YouTube

For some reason whenever I think of Jeru the Damaja I also think of Jakki the Motamouth.* I'm not sure if you dueds ever listened to him. He had a record I liked called God vs Satan that came out like ten years ago. He teamed up with Copywrite a bunch and I think was somehow involved with some of the Def Jux dudes.

I think his best song was on R2DJ's deadringer record, F.H.H.

RJD2 - F.H.H. ft. Jakki - Deadringer (HD) - YouTube

*It's a little disingenuous to say "for some reason". There is an obvious reason.

Will give it a go, just listened to this properly for the first time.

Nas - Nasty (Explicit) - YouTube

Its interesting, I haven't really listened to Nas since 'Stillmatic' and 'Ether' but when I do I am pleasantly surprised that I enjoy it.
