Always good to hear the classics. With true lyrics. It´s sad what some rap has developed into but hey hip-hop ain´t dead.

I personaly love stuff like: A Tribe Called Quest, Arrested Development, AZ, Beat Junkies, Big Daddy Kane, Big L, Blackstar, Brand Nubian, Common, Das EFX, De La Soul, Dialated Peoples, Gang Starr, House Of Pain, Ice-Cube(the old stuff), Jeru The Damaja, Masta Ace, Mos Def, N.W.A., Naughty By Nature, Odd Squad, People Under The Stairs, Poor Righteous Teachers, Public Enemy, Run D.M.C., Souls Of Mischief, Talib Kweli,... and many more (just to get a taste)

Now YOU have good taste in music, sir. Don't forget Jurassic 5 (nice Warpig, they're my favorite), Brother Ali, Blackalicious, Ozomatli, The Roots, Pharcyde, Bone Thugs, Wyclef, and of COURSE, the ever credible, Skee-Lo

Just gonna bump this instead of making a new thread.

The Detox single featuring Jay-Z is supposed to drop on Friday, that’s of course if Dre doesn’t decide to pull a Dr. Dre.

Nah Right » Dr. Dre’s “Under Pressure” is Dropping on Friday

His first single in ten years and he has even confirmed his album is coming this year. But I think



uptempo...

For me 2Pac was the end of the hip hop era. Don't get me wrong he was probably the best at his art but he made it cool to be a "gangsta". He wasn't the first to write about being a hard core gangsta and how cool it was to have alot of money but he became such a success that it actually influnced the people who listened too it in a bad way. Now all popular hip hop is about being a gangsta and having alot of money. Most modern hip hop is such a waste of time.

2Pac was the real deal. His followers are not.

A nice old school hip hop record: The official sountrack of the movie Friday. Alot of good stuff on that CD.

From memory:

No rapper can rap quite like I can
I'll take a muscle-bound man and put his face in the sand
Not the last mafioso, I'm an MC cop,
Make ya say "Go LL" and do the wop
If you think you can out-rhyme me, ya boy I bet
Cause I ain't met a muthafucka who can do that yet

Gets a little foggy after that.

I was the original suburban white kid who dug rap.
