when i saw cam'ron i stopped...and jumped out a window. to each their own, but y put up lists to advertise ur bad taste in musack? this is y i hate joining hip hop groups--or even reading hip hop blogs cuz mofos get me upset when they name their top 5 and it includes lil wayne, and master p--at that point im deleting my account cuz i realize will prolly never have a decent convo with them about music.
anyway, k.i.m...

Half of yall probably never heard that album, and diss Dipset if you want but Thes in an interview even said he listens to them I think.
Anyways my rant is over, looking forward to the new album. -

I got some friends who turn their nose up at anything beyond J5 which although is great (I must confess I don't really listen to them anymore) is pretty safe.
Its no coincidence that these are friends whose music tastes aren't really based in hiphop.
however I gotta credit Shadow with the Funky Skunk mixtape (which got me into more crunky stuff), and Doom's Special Herbs mashups (one particular track was dark as f*** with Cam'ron and Ghostface), which helped me to understand different elements. -

Anyways, just read my last post, and I come off pretty hyped. My bad, we're all P.U.T.S. fans here which means at the end of the day I like you people. It is BS not one PUTS cd is on that list.
Anyone have a favorite cd from this year? I know it's gonna P.U.T.S. when it drops but I heard that Slaughterhouse and Redman & Method Man album is kind of nice. -

Anyone who knows who MF, EL-P or even Del is, should know or have an idea of who the P is. I'll give these dudes the benefit of the doubt and say they must just not know about em. Someone send these guys a copy of OST
Since were on the subject though:
Deltron...mmm...okay
Cam'Ron? please
De La...f*** yes!
Common, Water for chocolate. Any thing Pre-Kanye I can get down with.
Common, Be...ho hum
Any of Eminems first few albums...yes
As far as Lil wayne and T.I. go, Ive never heard either album but the numbers dont lie.
Black Star missed it by 1 year, released in 98
Where's "Things fall apart!?" are you f***ing serious?

I think Blackout 2 is the only new Hip Hop Album I've brought this year.
A few tracks really stick out for me, 'Ayo', 'I Know sumthin', 'City Lights'.
No wonder Double likes it, its a smokers album.
"Is that Donalds weed?!" (love that from the dvd)
Any rapper that mentions Kush gets my vote and add tupper wear to that and you're on a winner!
I've been mainly buying older Hip Hop albums this year 'Paul's Boutique'... What an album possibly the "best" (in my opinion) Hip Hop album ever?!!!
Cypress Hill 'Cypress Hill', so dope, phat beats and B Real's voice sounds so good. Muggs' production is so underated. This album is better than Black Sunday (although that has some dope tunes).
Also DJ Skully 'Bring it Back' a 2005 (I think) mix cd.
DJ Skully is one of the best DJ's in the world people need to know this!
Check out his 2002 DMC World Final set. So tight, musical and that Money jumper... Fresh!
He didnt win the final but Kentaro was something else that year "No walls between music".
Anyway I go on!
PEACE. -

Inspectah Deck, Keith Murray, EPMD, Ludacris & Pitbull also performed at that concert and were real nice. But seeing Meth & Red and seeing Meth stage drive into the crowd was the real highlight.
