Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Song is a classic. It could drop today and still be dope.


Probably my favorite song off of RTJ2. The beat is too grimy.

 

I love you @Cashius X

And on that inspirational note, Krayzie Bone hooked up with Flying Lotus for the GTA V soundtrack. And wow. Entrancing, captivating and versatile. Simply genius.

 
Opinions on Frank Ocean? I've always been a huge fan but even more so lately. I know he isn't really considered a hip hop artist but he does it all. Channel Orange is easily one of the best albums I've ever heard. Geniously written and the production is so good.

Best production on a song ever IMO

One of my favorites of his. Plus Earl is the man.

Shady XV dropped today. What yall think?
 

Not so subtle mention of LeBron at 0:39 in the new Eminem cypher lol.
 
RA is one of those rappers falling in the "criminally underrated" category.actually, 'dangerous three' from his last album had three of the most slept on rappers together on one track. so good.

i'd say i hope to see him live but living in cleveland i'm not really counting on it. place needs better rap shows badly (altho meth & red, krit, and ali in the past two months is solid but a rare exception).

as an aside, i was going through my itunes this morning and it was saddening to see the likes of jay electronica and blu. so much promise. i remember constantly checking the blogs for new tracks from those guys.

The show last night was out of this world... I have honestly never seen anything like it and it is by far the best rap show I've ever been to.... and there were only 70 people! the venue royally shit the bed when it came to promoting the gig and R.A. even cracked a few jokes about it on stage. since there were so few people who bought tickets the venue wanted him to do a shorter set because they couldn't afford to pay staff for the extra hours (which is bullshit, i might add 'cause it's easily one of the biggest music venues in my city). R.A. wasn't having any of that weak shit though. He said that he didn't care if he went over time, the crowd had paid to see him and they were gonna get their moneys worth. He ended up going 20 minutes over the alotted time, and whipped the crowd into a god damn frenzy on every single song. He had Eamon and A-F-R-O along on tour and they were both absolutely amazing as well, A-F-R-O especially has some mind boggling skills going on and he's only 17. Amazing performance all around only mired by the fact that the venue botched it by having no idea how to fucking promote one of the greatest rappers alive.
