listening to this new dj premier record which is mostly retreads of old stuff, a lot of it on his excellent time 4 change tape from a few years back. plus a few no marks and styles p. i'd never heard this nygz remix with freddie foxxx and lady of rage (!) tho.

yeah its not as good as the 1st one but i like it. 'rockin and rollin' is esp dope, should be a single imo
i wonder what tracks they cut from the version they sent me.
― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 18:29 (thirteen years ago) link
the roach gigz track i really really loved last year wasn't on the mixtape

I don't think this is necc true.
― tears of a self-clowning oven (The Reverend), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 19:34 (thirteen years ago) link
(Which isn't to say swag cru is highly interested in it either, but I still think that's a false assumption.)
i dunno, ethan cast a weird "LOL you like cannibal ox" pall on this whole board and now i'm always extra cautious when posting this shit

i had one beans record that i really dug, can't remember the name but it was more like a weird electronic jazz record or something, some "real" jazz dudes played on it...cool stuff but not much rapping iirc
― the medina green preservation society (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 19:44 (thirteen years ago) link
this beans song is cool he says shit like "illustrious" and "exploding isotopes" and shit...maybe it's time for a backpacker revival

if anything my taste in rap is as informed by adapting tim & moonship's ideas to rap music as it is being influenced by ethan & dk (nev mind the influence of serg / noz / etc). i know e likes to make it seem like he invented me or something but thats basically his own self aggrandizing ish
― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 19:51 (thirteen years ago) link
(& s reynolds, and academics like elijah wald, & hugely kelefa, who has probably more directly influenced by approach to rap writing than anyone, but w/e)

you should post stuff like this anyway, i think most people who read this thread enjoy a bit of undie rap as long as its not too stale & backwards-looking

oh yeah just for the record we're counting the dirty money album as a rap album

just curious -- why we only doing albums not traxx? not enuff consensus?

is das racist rap? is the cee-lo/craig street mixtape?
― predeep natsvitika (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 22:29 (thirteen years ago) link
i listened to the roc marciano track on the das racist mixtape, seems like rap, tho only one of them is really passable at it as far as i can tell. dunno the second one
― zvookster, Tuesday, 4 January 2011 22:33 (thirteen years ago) link
hey wait a minute, who gives a fuck how long it took to build the sistine chapel, I'm not an art historian but surely if anything, it's the frescos that weren't 'built' in a day.
