Everyone has writers but it doesn't sit right when Nas does it. Side note: Rick Ross kind of addresses his CO past again. Read the #3 point. I think Rick Ross is a comic book character and it's entertaining. Ka (Brooklyn emcee) gets interviewed. I didn't get his record but I should. You should too.

i agree with all of that except for the horrible placing of SDE which is clearly cams most slept on album after dipset re-wrote his rap history and probably his 3rd best.

You're probably right, it came out before I really was listening to Cam and I always kinda slept on it therefore proving your point.

Cool Buff Man posted:What the gently caress are you even talking about cardedagain posted:funny how being dead doesn't entail ghostwriting. Jesus how the gently caress do you not understand? Those were some pretty simple statements. I'm talking about the things that Nas was upset with during his "Hip Hop is Dead" phase i.e. lyrical content and censorship. He clearly states so in some of his lyrics on songs like "Hip Hop is Dead", "Hero", "Carry On Tradition" and more. However, I never heard him mention ghostwriting as a problem...perhaps because it happens so much. Who knows?

I endorse that Cam post. Very fine opinions on his work you got there. Speaking of ghostwriters, do you think JR Writer wrote for Cam or vice versa? It's hard to tell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYb-B1j4ul8 dips are fire, get your flier- posters, yall jokesters like Richard Pryor

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Q4bYvgyLb0 Gunplay is loving crazy (or good at acting like it) and is still the most interesting thing out of MMG. The song starts at 1:50 if you don't want to see all of his antics. Fair amount of drug use in the video if you are somewhere that might get you in trouble.

Just saw that video on someone else's blog. Gunplay is different at least. I think he'll self destruct though. Betting gun charge + assault. Any takers?

Gunplay loving rules, dude's nice. And his videos are wild. Wish MMG would give him a bigger presence cause he got a lot of the Waka energy going on, with a more lyrical rhyming and more of a sense of humor. Also don't know if anyone mentioned it when it first came out, but dude GDP put out an album last year that's totally in the late 90's/early 2000's DefJux mode (couple sounds could easily pass as Co Flo). If you dig that kind of thing, I really recommend checking out "Useless Eaters"

It's definitely got that cluttered/tense vibes that DefJux stuff had. Did one dude do all the production? I couldn't find out who made the beats but the sound's so cohesive I'd be surprised if it wasn't one dude. I didn't see anyone mention it but Jeremiah Jae's LP is pretty sweet. Sort of reminds me of madlib or maybe shabazz palaces. I think it's interesting that the vocals sort of take a backseat to the beats.

Anderron Shi posted:I love how Cam-focused this thread always is. He dropped anything new in the past month? I'm assuming it's cause most everyone here was in high school during the height of Dipset and loved em back in the day. I admit, there's a lot of stuff to "ironically" appreciate about them: their clownish (but so on point) slang, wearing pink, their careers falling apart, Killa Season the movie, but Cam is a really great rapper. I once liked Juelz and the subsidiary members of the dips until they became super corny. Remember the beefs with Nas and Jay and the video of Jimmy and Cam getting beat up at the Rucker? I don't know if he's done anything recently, probably not, but that was a weird and gross rear end movie Cam made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuUFetPJUEI
