High Powered; may be old to you, but new to me.

Girl in bodega is the same as gaptoothed chick from 'One More Drink'? Well served when filmed at an angle from below.

i remember hearing "brooklyn girls" on shade 45 or maybe the other sirius rap station in like early summer way before this whole the blog rap thing really took hold and thinking it was pretty good. he's probably recorded 200 songs since then

those halcyon days

yup. and might i add in regard to my depressed posts yesterday, i feel validated somewhat:

Now the best rappers are not rapping, going to jail, and just sucking. Now that Wayne has officially evolved into the hip hop personality sphere occupied by such irrelevant recording artists as 50 and Snoop Dogg we have no true rap stars. Kanye is leading the pack, but off the cliff.

The hipster hop crossover (not to be confused with the blogo thundercat rappers, an embarrassment in their own right, but honestly not even worth acknowledging at this point - I am talking 808s, “Swagger Like Us”, “Brooklyn Go Hard”, Jim Jones rhyming over MGMT, etc.) of 2009 will be looked back on as one of the lowest points in hip hop. Lower than snap hop and hip house and all that

hip house wasn't that bad!

</doug lazy>

yeah you can't get much lower than snap hop or hip house jesus fuck that guy

girl i'll house you alone makes everything worth it

blogo thundercat rappers

hip house wasn't that bad!

^^^makes so much sense w/the username

man that scarface is nice. thank god for old rappers.

i have no problem with hip house, and it's well known that he has defended snap harder than almost anyone (and I think at one point he argued for the D4L album over Stillmatic or something like that)...so I don't think he was really knocking snap or hip house or whatever else. also who cares that whole phrase is almost a non sequitur. snap is and was maligned is the point.

too lazy to link to my blog post about jeezy being rap's only true rap star - but jeezy is rap's only true rap star

ti?

http://jumptheturnstyle.com/?p=2043

^this shit is truly a time capsule of ;_; btw

also i think noz is being facetious about the hip-house/snap hop thing

yeah t.i. sold the fuck out though - his verses on "live your life" are underrated but whenever that numa numa sample kicks in i feel like im being punked

and that song is AFTER live your life

er AFTER "whatever you like"

ha, I first heard Numa Numa BECAUSE of "Live Your Life", so I don't have any negative association with the sample

t.i.'s uh "selling out" doesn't seem a permanent or irreversible thing though, just trend-hopping

the only thing that bugs me about that song is how rhianna pronounces shit like a leprechaun

lex otm

no noz really has silly opinions about some of that shit

who remembers his post about 'no good women rappers'

oof, forgot about that one

what other rap stars are there right now besides young jeezy

t.i. WAS arguably the biggest rap star circa king but now his pop songs are worse and so is his rapping - jeezy's just as successful now as he was and he's done it on his own terms - as far as rap goes as an intersection between an art form and a commercial business i don't see anyone more vital to the game than jeezy

Internationally, i don't think ppl don't care about jeezy or t.i., it's all about 'Ye and has been since at least Late Registration. And maybe fiddy if they still care about him in 2009 ("I Get It In" dropped today).

I know you're intersecting success with ppl you rate, therefore those guys don't apply, but just saying re:stardom. Anyways...

Percival Fats (Born Percival Hindenburg-Fats) Is NOT Lupe Fiasco (Born Wasalu Muhammad Jaco). Although he is a dear friend,' it read 'Lupe does finance the band but is NOT I REPEAT NOT THE SINGER IN JAPANESE CARTOON. He is however the producer and we value his participation very much haha

Q-Tip song for the Cadillac Records OST - "(Evolution of a) Man" is nice in a throwaway way.

The RZA f, Kool G. Rap, Inspektah Deck & Suga Bang (from Afro Samurai: Resurrection) - You Already Know - not really feeling this yet, but it did make me bump "Cameo Afro" from the first one, which was cool.

@Matt upthread, yeah High Powered is on the album, has been around for a bit. Really good. Took me a while to like it tho, and i don't think the video does anything for it.

Noz likes Trina.

And Medusa. A heady mix.

im kind of feeling the new 50 single -- beat is weirdly hypnotizing

zzz 50 trolls interscope intentionally lame flaming 2% of the track with genius

idc @ trend partisan fader blogger worked into polemic frenzy.

i lolled, what was he so mad about

oh, i'm dumb :/
