[Fire!]

Anyone know who made this beat? Can't remember...

[prog]

I think Just Blaze, but don't remember.

I kinda want to take this thread in a different direction, more toward the production side. Way past favorite producers and all, but what samples made you rewind when you heard them?

For example, these tracks blew my mind when I heard the samples:

**** that song yo,don't get me wrong,I love tech,but that strong is str8 trash. Doesn't hold a rhyme scheme for ****.If I want to hear hispanics spewing socialism i'd be watching a Che Guevara video.

Prog, I like you producer list. Only changes I would have is Dre instead of just blaze and Bomb squad for RZA.

 

[IAmBlu3]

aye, what rappers do ya'll think should just stop rapping? And i mean rappers that were good and aren't now or you can tell are way past their prime. not just bad rappers like most of the people on the radio.

I think Snoop, Jay-Z, Diddy(lol) and maybe even Eminem(if he puts out another album like Relapse) should put that mic down.

Discuss

hopefully no one catches any feelings or anything like that.

 

[Jane]

i agree on snoop i guess, and diddy definitely haha. hov i think still makes good music occasionally, so i dont think he should just outright stop. eminem i HIGHLY disagree.

i cant think of any other atm lol, so if you suggest more ill tell you my opinion on if they should stop or not :b

 

[IAmBlu3]

Jay-Z, i'm still iffy on. I think Rakim should definitely stop. Eminem....I'll listen to relapse 2. if it sounds like the first, he should retire. I think all of D-12 should retire Proof was cool but i really don't like the rest of them(excluding shady).

 

[soap]

roffll

i think alot of tech's political lyrics are nonsense

he still has amazing presence on the mic which makes stuff sound legit

but ya, i found that funny

 

[Luigitoilet]

I used to be obsessed with Tech and thought he was the greatest rapper ever but really, as I've said before, he's more of a slam poet than anything. At his shows he's always yelling to "turn the beat down listen to this ****" and doing a cappella. His flow tends to be average and at times even off rhythm and he has some lazy rhymes. He has some amazing lyrics and lines, it's just his delivery isn't always with it imo.

 

[IAmBlu3]

ahh technique. so lyrical, yet no flow whatsoever. he goes off beat on acapellas smh. but rev. vol. 2 is still one of my favorite cds : )

 

[Doromac]

Hey! What y'all be thinkin' of new Luda album.

I be a bit disappointed.

 

[IAmBlu3]

i haven't listened to it yet, but i heard it sucks. That "My Chick Bad" song is terrible. BUt i don't think this album was supposed to be his solo one. I knew he was supposed to do this one with shawnna and then start work on his own solo album. Either way, i'm disappointed, Luda -__-

 

[Doromac]

Yea. It's pretty **** bad, considering all his other albums ranged from great to ****ing amazing.

I can bear with some of the songs, but otherwise I really don't like this at all. I went back to listening to Word of Mouf and Chicken n Beer.

 

[rhan]

Need new track for the Ipod. Spread the word.

Or just yell out some tracks here. I need new **** to listen to.

 

[soap]

Need new track for the Ipod. Spread the word.

Or just yell out some tracks here. I need new **** to listen to.

new track?

i get hella sick of listening to one new song.

i like albums

people should list their top five most played albums. doesnt have to be new at all. just curious what peoples favorites are

mine would be like, no particular ranking order

drake - room for improvement mixtape, 2pac - 7 day theory, jin - the emcee's properganda, talib kweli - reflection eternal, and recently have been super hooked on blu - below the heavens

 

[rhan]

Wurd. Room for improvement I got on my **** already but everything else is fair game. Bout to check them out right now.

 

[Linguini]

7 day theory is one of my top 5 favorite albums of all time, every song on that album has over 100 plays on my itunes haha.

Gorrilaz-Gorrilaz
Relapse/refill-Eminem
MMLP-Eminem

[IAmBlu3]

Relapse? really? i didn't expect that to be on anybody's list.

would gorillaz really be considered rap? they kind of have their own weird sound.

 

[Suspect]

He said top 5 most played albums, so i just listed my fave albums instead since those are my most played actually. He didn't say rap/hip-hop only tho.

Relapse Re-fill is the **** idgaf what anyone says

 

[Jane]

His flow tends to be average and at times even off rhythm and he has some lazy rhymes. He has some amazing lyrics and lines, it's just his delivery isn't always with it imo.

the lyrics make up for it for me

Hey! What y'all be thinkin' of new Luda album.

I be a bit disappointed.

havent heard but i am ready to be disappointed when i listen. lol

Relapse Re-fill is the **** idgaf what anyone says

[I.B]

Yo I hope you guys listen to J. Cole

Iv'e been keeping track of J.Cole for a mad long time,since before he was signed lol. Him, B.O.B, and Asher Roth are my favorite relatively new artists. Can't wait for B.O.B's album coming out this month,and J.Cole's is going to be dope as well this summer.

B.O.B>>>>>Drake
