HatchetDown posted:Because how Virus sounds appeals to more people in the fan base I'm dealing with. I completely agree, he's kind of burnt out but he keeps chugging on producing music every day or else according to him he get's "real irritated" when he doesn't and it's taken a lot of steam out of his style. He also made mention of how every time he tries to get a little experimental his fan base hates it so he has to expand his sound in small doses. I think he just needs to get hooked up with a good producer again so he can concentrate more on writing his raps. Liked the interview- I'm a Del fan, nothing to be ashamed about.

Honestly if I was having a party and could only play rap I'd just put on Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa and Young Money poo poo... totally depending on whos gonna be there, of course. Basically the idea of any party is to play music that guys are gonna enjoy listening too (like jock mock said) and that girls can get slutty to.

phractured posted:How many of you guys know a decent amount about the history of hip-hop? 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 guess I don't really know much about rappin before around '87-'88. The only artists I know of from before then are the really popular ones like Sugarhill, Kurtis Blow, Fat Boys, Beasties, and LL. I think my favorite thing about listening to rap is recognizing all the callbacks/homage type poo poo that goes on, which I think comes from Jazz. Like you might hear a good line or melody, and think "Oh he took that from Blackstar" and then you listen to Biggie and hear it again, and then you listen to BDP and you're sure that's where it came from originally, until you find out that KRS-One lifted it from an old dancehall track. Here's a question for you: Where did "6 million ways to die... choose one!" come from? I ask because I've heard it so many times in rap but I honestly don't know. I'm sure it's from a dancehall tune.

Speaking of WTT, I just got finished with it. It's a pretty good album, I guess. Hov doesn't really make the kind of music I usually listen to, but I felt sort of obligated to listen to it cause of all the hype. There were a couple songs I liked, so I'm gonna leave it in rotation. The RZA beat surprised me by how good it was, one of the best I've heard from the abbot in a long time. What did yall think?

I don't know who started it, but I kind of like this trend of rappers dropping EPs in addition to mixtapes now. I guess they're gonna serve as a replacement for "Retail Mixtapes" since they charge money for 'em. It's a good way to get music out and still get paid while your debut is stuck in label-hell, I suppose. edit: Now that I think of it, Roc Marciano and T3 from Slum Village both dropped EPs recently too.

CII is and probably will stay my favorite Weezy F, probably cause it was my first time I REALLY heard him. See I wasn't into mixtapes back then, so I'd only heard Go DJ, Fireman, and at that point. But I heard this dude going off in the record store to the clerk about how Lil Wayne was the best thing in rap, whatever whatever, so I picked up his latest instead of the 2nd-gen Wu-tang or whatever crap I was thinking was good at the time. Actually now that I think about it, I think I picked it over Nas' Street's Disciple double-album that had dropped around then. What a good choice that was. After that I discovered you could download mixtapes online (for free!) so I went pretty much just went HAM after that, lost interest a couples months after CIII dropped. I guess that was.. drat, like 6 years ago now. Related note: I think some of you all forget or just never experienced how much fun that backpacker phase actually is when you first get into rap. I feel like since I grew up during the Puffy shiny suit era/turn of millennium NYC era. I got exposed to a lot of garbage. And not there wasn't a bunch of good poo poo that came out in that time, what they were playing on rap radio and MTV turned off a lot of white kids who couldn't relate, I think. So when you get your hands on something like Operation: Doomsday or Blackstar for the first time, or even aTCQ, it feels like you've found some lost and rare artifacts (no pun) that you can play to your friends and try to impress them. I must've played Illmatic at least once to EVERYONE who got in my whip for about 3 months. I remember listening to Del's Both Sides of the Brain all the way home from Marathon Key to my hometown like an hour and a half away with my friend, and also that Deltron 3030 album. It's like you discovered some rare art form, like a whole different format that's been under your nose the whole time. Does that make me a culture vulture? Maybe. The difference is that I'm gonna rep this poo poo forever. I'm gonna be like that Michael Bolton character in Office Space, blasting Geto Boyz from my Toyota Corolla as I drive to my lovely office job. And if they ever drop another Deltron album, you're gonna catch me standing in line, on release day.
