weezy mean mug = b+

looks more "put-upon" than "hardman"

Does anyone know if the Fat Joe/Diddy remake of "Party All The Time" will surface or did it get scrapped? I heard that it won't be on the album but I would be seriously disappointed if the world never had the chance to hear this potential masterpiece.

ROLL WITH THE MAFIA SIX
AND WE AINT BOUT THAT BULLSHIT

eMC album is great.

i really like the new erykah badu song produced by 9th wonder and the video is pretty slick with the live action album covers and all.

does anyone know who the Bake Up Boys are? They seem southern maybe but Jim Jones is in their video, like that song....

DL'ing that Caltroit mixtape by Bishop Lamont and Black Milk, pretty excited

also:

I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS?

maybe i'm alone on this but it takes me till like the 3rd chorus every time to spell out independent right

that boosie freestyle vid is tight

"i'ma ratchet n*gga/it's off the head"

i really like the new erykah badu song produced by 9th wonder

did anyone post this yet

http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/mixtape/id.353/title.re-up-gang-we-got-it-4-cheap-v-3

nah right has download link

i think hoos and i are probably the only ppl really fucking w/ this though

m@tt and whiney too i guess

i like clipse!

ethan and deej hate them i guess?

i dunno, i think they are good rappers, i actually like the mixtapes better than the albums cuz i like them going off other ppl's beats besides neptunes...

i didn't see the DL link on nah right? is it on the front page?

http://nahright.com/news/2008/02/04/we-just-think-we-better/

it's in there

yeah i remember you reviving the wg4c 2 thread. i think ethan/deej/al/rev(?) think they're garbage though

fyi a few songs on there are mislabeled. switch the one called "good morning" w/ the one that has the actual "good morning" beat. same for "roc boys". those are the only ones i caught though.

sweet got it

i like clipse

i like clipse (sometimes)

still so embarassed at how amped i was about hhnf. luster wore off after about a week, but i'd already called it my #1 cause i suck at the teat of hype.

but i will listen to this and probably like it.

but hey at least i haven't posted on that vampire weekend thread

clipse are good, the hype far far outweighs everything tho ... they are not the second coming of epmd or something

the whole idea that they released THE BEST RAP ALBUM OF THE YEAR ISNT IT CRAZY HOW MUCH BETTER THIS IS THAN 99% OF RAP??? is what's so absurd about everything. I enjoyed a bunch of the tracks on their second album, but the whole overanalysis of their lyrics, everyone picking apart generic references to bapes, it just got really ridiculous

srsly tho when is the second coming of epmd

lol yeah deej otm esp. since theyre basically just punchline rappers who know a lot of words that mean coke

i mean at least with cannibal ox, they sounded different than 99% of rap ... not better, but it made more sense that people would rally around it

I think what was the most frustrating thing about The Great Clipse Herb-A-Thon 2006 for me was that their first album was, like, way better and no one gave a shit

I do love me some Clipse tho. But I wouldn't want to admit it in the presence of corny indie fuxx0rs

my biggest problems w/ hhnf is a. it was narrow b. it was no fun c. the beats sucked some balls. no "virginia" no "young boy" no "when the last time" no "cot damn" and the list goes on and on.

my fave part of the whole hype was def the "skeletal, minimal beats match their stark, unforgiving lyrics". i mean lofuckingl

What do you mean by "narrow"?

my fave part of the whole hype was def the "skeletal, minimal beats match their stark, unforgiving lyrics". i mean lofuckingl

yeah i LIKE hell hath, but jeez no to be all sick mouthy on the tip but the mastering was hellishly harsh, and the beats were already harsh to begin with, i think that more than anything made it not have legs for me.

like i said above i like the mixtapes just to hear them go hard over other people's beats....like "Cry Now" off the new tape is probably better than most of hell hath..

...but yeah honestly i always imagined if lord willin' had disappeared and they never got the p-fork hype, ethan would be posting shit from "what happened to that boy" with "^^^^^^^the realest" after it

fyi i still jam lord willin herb-a-thon or no

rev:

focus wise. it's probably my fault for being tired of coke-talk after listening to hhnf, but on lord willin at least a lot of that stuff was framed in a larger narrative ("young boy" about selling coke as a come up, "virginia" in relation to the state [even though they don't really talk about themselves all that much in the song]). and i respect their "we got fucked over and our lives sucked and we had to sell coke so we cut out all the fun songs" (i.e. a "when the last time" which is just a great song about going to the club, but widens the focus of the album) thing but it didn't work for me.

like ill take "comedy central" and "i'm not you" over like every song but 2 on hhnf

^^and those are back-half album cuts mind you

yeah I like their old stuff fine. i just think the nu-Neptunes stuff on the last album was garbage, and don't really care to hear their mixtape shit (but then, i don't really care to hear some of my favorite MCs' mixtape shit), and they seem to have gotten really smug as their lyrics have become more repetitive and monomaniacal. maybe the beats they get from Danja and Dame Grease on the next one will be good, though.

Thus far (and just like on HHNF after the new wore off) I'm actually liking Roscoe P Goldchain (?) the most. But then I really dig alliteration, and obv he does too.

dude's "bodies like kill bill" was eventually my favorite verse of the whole record

lol skateboard p's "house is paisley"

i would def. support switching out sandman for roscoe on the re-up starting lineup

"chains on my neck like i'm fresh off the amistad"

0_o!
