I'm not like a huge Dilla person by any means, but this J-Rocc mix is phenomenal:

Thank You Jay Dee: Act 2

there's something kind of distasteful about this I think...

http://www.datpiff.com/images/tapes/Codeine-Overdose-mid14229-large.jpg

^this from a dude who loves the "make it rain" remix which makes about 8 katrina jokes

anyway it is distasteful but what's the point of complaining about the cover of a comp tape from some dude named "dj envy"

anyway what is on that w/r/t music-- old shit i imagine. anything newish worth while?

there's no katrina reference in R. Kelly's verse

and he is the definition of taste, as everyone knows

that cover is Luda, Rosss and (who the fuck is that? Yung Joc?) staging and intervention for Weezy.

and=an

um yeah it's great it's more or less new freestyles and mixtape cuts for about two thirds of it...I mean "new" as in the past couple weeks...it's a good roundup of pretty much every southern rapper that's hot right now

lol it does look like that....and yes thats Yung Joc

Yung Joc kills this funny song by Hot Styles (who?)

25. Plies-who hotter than me

^^still waiting for an answer

wow "No Matter What" is pretty awesome

some dude named "dj envy"

not a hot 97 listener obviously

oh this dude

DJ Envy (born Raashaun Casey on September 3, 1978) is a Mixtape DJ from New York. He is known as New York's leading mixtape purveyor

"oh"

envy has some good tapes.

TI goes in for some Jigga circa-Black Album uplifting self-mythologizing:

http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/audio/id.4740/title.t-i-no-matter-what

this t.i. song is pretty hot. these synths sound like the ones from "dat girl right there" except they're pretty annoying in this song. really ruins the vibe imo. guitar is awesome though.

ethan will love the "let go and let god deal with it" line

man I loove the synths on this....I think the beat is incredible

(he's actually a pretty bad motherfucker but lol jazz mixtape)

"DRE WITH MORE BIG BOI, CD'S WITH MORE PLAY"

you know i was all set to be mr. hater tots on that song but the second and third verses are pretty great

i could do without the LET'S SAVE BRITNEY AND LOHAN AND K-FED verse but what can you do

and that lone horn that comes in after the sample is sublime-- very reminiscent of "circles"

I believe I was a little hater-ish on it at first but I love it now, and yeah the second and third verses are sick....he really can't do wrong, or at least rarely ever does

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51SQPFCE7NL._SS500_.jpg

that album is great

except for "girls gone wild"

it has like 4 really good tracks the rest is just mediocre especially by his standards. not to mention that for a great singles artist "money maker" and "runaway love" are two of his worst ever.

i still don't think he's rapping as well as he used to, i mean maybe he drops a super hot line from time to time, but at least he's got his boisterous attitude back and he's still a good technical rapper so that makes up for his straight-up lyrical deficiencies now i think

4. Girls Gone Wild
5. Ultimate Satisfaction
6. Mouths To Feed
7. End Of The Night
8. Woozy

like this stretch was real fucking boring iirc

"Mouths To feed" and "Ultimate Satisfaction" are two of my faves from that album...

which has reminded me to put this on
