Bluetooth human being posted:Is Tech N9ne the guy who does that song about Malibu, Pineapple or something else (basically rapping about a mixed drink or something)? Cause I hate that song, but never heard anything else by him. Crybaby is pretty good so far though. if you want to hear Tech at his best you'd have to listen to Anghellic. If you don't like Anghellic you don't like Tech N9ne. e: I kinda didn't like "Caribou Lou" at first either (mostly because of the hook and the "poppyness" of it) but once that second or third verse kicked in with "Tarbender, I need a druther nink" and he flips out like "SAAWIIING BATTA BATTA (TECH, YOU'RE NOT MAKIN ANY SENSE!)" i was sold oh and big ups to alan for the crucial conflict/do or die nod. sometimes i feel like im the only one who remembers those dudes E.T.

alansmithee posted:Sage Francis is actually a very good MC and is someone who I think the way a lot of his fanbase reacts to him really colors how other people view him. I didn't listen to his last album really (still mean to), but I liked everything before that. eh I felt kinda weird even writing the "not very good at it" part because there was a song or two, once upon a time, that i kinda dug but my "too free form" comment still holds water i think. i couldnt stand to listen to an entire album of Sage but i do know that the dude can rap

hey everybody i dont have anything new to post but i jammed out so hard today to Juggaknots "Clear Blue Skies" album (or more truthfully the re-release of that album, aptly titled "Re:Release") that I felt it necessary to declare it "hey everybody go listen to Juggaknots again" day or week or whatever, whenever you can get around to it. here is some reasons why to do what I say: I could listen to Trouble Man on repeat for at least 20 minutes and for some reason Breeze's verse about giving birth to a rhyme turns me on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QVFG8VvP80 "next time I see you imma kill you" and was jettin. Hmm. that's different: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEXYQCY1gf8 behold the fungus among us: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZradKNT7SI so if you've already heard the album as many times over as I have it's probably been a while since you've listened to it so go ahead and rock out whaddya say ok and if you've never heard of juggaknots or this album or w/e then you're welcome

Jock said on the last page something like how Cee Lo "really can sing though" and I know what he meant but I feel like I should mention again (I know I said it in the last thread) that his album "Cee Lo Green and His Perfect Imperfections" is loving incredible and if I wasn't slightly zoned out right now I'd post a bunch of youtube videos to prove it. so as always, do yourself a favor and get that album ok gently caress it here's a couple for the road https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRxZ9gKD1oQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNp15l_rcjE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-02VRblPfMI

The Maestro posted:Also, re: cavemanthugshit and Juggaknots - Trouble Man is definitely in my top favorite songs ever, every time I listen to it I discover something new. Plus that beat is dope as poo poo. I really love the format of the album too, all the really short songs with a couple verses and maybe one chorus. Always checking for new Breezely poo poo, I think he's one of the most talented MCs on the mic, even if Re:Release/Clear Blue Skies is my only evidence (it's not). he's also part of Weathermen and has a killer opening verse on Aesop's song off None Shall Pass called Getaway Car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6rQvo5yYB0 ive been trying to think of a proper way to describe Breeze's flow and I can't pin it down, but I love it for sure. this is the most recent thing I've heard him on, if you've got something else let me know oh and like 2 seconds of google and i stumbled on this from an interview lol: quote:Robbie: You’ve got a unique flow yourself. How did you develop that, or was it a natural progression? and Breeze posted:“I’m Gonna Kill You”, is my favorite song I’ve ever recorded. If I never make anything like that from here on in, I’m good, because that song, right there is… I really couldn’t improve on it if I tried. Lyrically and musically and song structure-wise, that’s my favorite joint. E.T. NO HOMO fucked around with this message at 00:01 on Apr 24, 2011 |

For diversity day at my school, I made a presentation about the history of hip-hop, and I actually learned a lot that I never knew about. What are some interesting bits of hip-hop history that you guys would share? I like to think that I know a lot about the history of hip-hop, but at the end of the day I just love beats and rhymes. I fell in love with hip-hop when I heard what people were doing with words, I remember being amazed that people could do that (i.e. 16 bars of 8 syllable rhyme schemes), and it's a lot easier for me to talk about how incredible it is that 'MC Y' or 'Producer X' did 'Thing Z' than the sociopolitical undertones of why it exists in the first place. What were some of the things you discovered that suprised you? e: also a little bummed about Akrobatik, hope he pulls through. i'll listen to some Perceptionists today because that will help

HatchetDown posted:I've got an interesting challenge that's surprisingly hard for me. I have a friend who challenged me to "find him a rapper that goes harder than Eminem". While this sounds easy enough, he's not exactly what I would call a true rap fan. He's completely submerged in top 40 stuff so I can't give him a lot of the better rap I have because I think it'll go unappreciated. All I can think of off the top of my head that'll satisfy him is a bunch of old Three 6 mixtapes or maybe Kendrick Lamar since he's current. Any ideas? if he's the type of person who needs to be convinced that there are rappers that "go harder than eminem" you won't be able to convince him that one exists E.T.

im sayin, i could rattle off a list of rappers who have at one time or another "gone harder" or at least "as hard" as even early Eminem, but for someone who holds Em in such a high regard where he needs to have proof laid out before him that there are other rappers on that level, they really arent in a position to have that view changed hopefully your friend comes to this realization with your help and youre bumping Black On Both Sides this time next week
