His and the slangcorp websites are both down so I can't link you to any free music as of right now, but if you're digging neural circuitry I'd recommend the "Magic Bullet" EP, It's his most recent work aside from Useless Eaters so it's pretty close stylistically, other than that just go chronologically, Involvement and then Realistic Expectations, Both are one itunes as far as I know and they dope, also when slangcorp.com comes back up just go through and download everybodies poo poo because GDP's on at least one or two songs per each artists album and vice versa, the entire camp is sick.

Seriously drat good read, I've been listening to everything for the last hour or so. It's such a good list I can't really fault his choices even where our opinions would differ. (except Stay Fly, I still think that was one of the best songs of 2005, and my favorite). I see stuff like Ghostface f Jadakiss "Run" and UGK "Game Belongs To Me" and im like YES.

There's a Complex list of the 50 greatest rap samples done by Kon and Amir (might've got talked about in the last thread). It's really cool not just to see the samples but how they're used. I remember one that stuck out was "Lyrics to Go" which just has a stretched out Minnie Ripperton vocal sample.

Yeaaaah, that's one of my favorite samples. So when I got FL9 the other week it was the first thing I tried to make a beat from. Then I realized that it's also used in Me Against the World and about a million other songs, so I kind of gave up on it.

The Bay Area has you covered good, with some of the best (in my opinion) underground gangster rap you can find, stretching from the late 80s to the present. Most of the best stuff was from the 90s, such as:

GLP - Gafflin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KG9iGrDNGYY
IMP ft. Cellski, Chewy-C, Dre Dog - Frisco: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoM0SmeRcxw,

11/5 - Kill A Hoe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otlwXEFY5mo&feature=related

...but here's some newer stuff from within the past 5 years...some is pretty drat good, some not so much, but its all underground gangster/hustler poo poo that most people have never heard of:

Davinci ft Ones - slow ridin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ca5_z-VP7K8

^and those dudes are all just from San Francisco, except for The Coup, Ant Dog, Rappin Ron, and Stunnarifik who are all from Oakland, and Spice-1, who's from Hayward. Here are a couple other examples from Oakland and Vallejo:

J. Stalin - That Quick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lTpnCpDqk8

and one more from SF/Vallejo:

Krypto & S.B. - Tell me What u See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGp_eJTB2SY


Gangster rap has always been big in the Bay Area, especially during the 90s. Back when LA's G-Funk was popular, the Bay Area had a similar style of gangsta rap called Mobb Music, which is what all of that older stuff is that i posted. The Bay was never as well known though, because most rappers did stuff independently (and/or were killed/went to prison, etc), and for the most part never showed up on the radio, or on MTV or BET. Despite that, some pretty decent followings managed to pop up outside CA, in the northwest, midwest and south, such as Kansas City, Houston, Portland, and Detroit.

chopper city posted:

Also post links of more white rappers like GDP rapping about k-pins and heroin because I EAT THAT poo poo UP

Nocturnal Hustlers, also out of the Bay Area:

He's only got 3 albums and one mixtape to my knowledge...

His mixtape and his new album are largely junk. He's got some nice lyrics, but the production sucks on a lot of it and he doesn't sound too involved (he's been quite open about the process behind the latest album so it's not really surprising). Supposedly they're putting out a version with Shining Down and I'm beaming on it soon so I'd check for that. Also look for SLR, don't know if it was off anything but it's a ridiculous track.

As for his first two albums might as well check them if you liked what you heard on Youtube. I prefer F&L but don't know if that's a common opinion.

Best album has to be The Cool. Certainly the most cohesive and this was before Atlantic was too scared to be different. Besides from what I've heard about his Fahrenheit mixtape series, none of them are particularly good.
Here's a few of my favorite tracks by him:

Checked the interview, it was interesting. Why did you choose to lead in with a Deltron 3030 song?

Also I thought it was a bit depressing, tbh. I remember hearing about that promotion he did where you could get a song/album/verse with him (part of his album package) and like there's a lot of rappers of way less profile who charge $10k for a verse, not a whole EP. I wonder if he would've kinda catered more to a different fanbase if he would be getting a bit more support. IIRC he's from Oakland and I know the bay area usually supports their artists pretty strongly. Just seems like a lot of the Deltron crowd has moved on, and he doesn't have many "rap" dudes left. Or maybe I'm wrong, idk.
