We seem to be starting quite a few at the moment, so lets keep it all in one place.

This is your centre for enquiring about/recommending/talking about any albums, songs or rappers.

Enjoy.

Okay, with a fortnight until the allegded return of Tupac Shakur, or 2pac, from death, what is there to make of this? Can he be still alive, considering that he had good reasons to keep his head down? Or is just a hyped scam just made by fans and schemers who want to stir things up?
If he did come back, how well would he be received? Would the industry forgive and forget, or would the fans hate him for lying to them and would he get in trouble with police for faking his own death? Might he actually get shot for real by a true fan distraught after being lied to?

Could it be that he is alive but won't come back, or is it all just rubbish (check out tupac.com, go to the 'Is He Alive?' link and read before giving your verdict here.

General Tupac: Favourite album? Favourite songs? Favourite lines?

Discuss muufus

Yeah, just the Rakeem/Rakim similarity got me wondering, specially as I don't have any actual Rakim music but I have loads of Rza so I couldn't compare.

Your way off - Rakim.....as in Eric B. & Rakim.

Cool, just found out the release date for Tical O.

Excellent...

28th October. Like 3 days before Halloween.

Which makes no difference..

Heh, yeah, and you'd expect oh so much more from Rza.

Just a quick question, im confused.

Is Rza/Prince Rakeem the same as Rakim?

Yup, tis good. Also check out Liquid Swords by GZA.

Don't be conned into thinking that Raekwon's 2nd album's good. It's not, it's bloody terrible.

Oh and U-God's album's worth a look, forget the name of it. Oh and Inspetah Deck, Uncontrolled Substance is also good.

Oh and Old Dirty B'sterds first album's good too.

Problem with Wu solo stuff is some of it's excellent, some of it bloody tripe. RZA, Bobby Digital springs to mind in the tripe section.

I got the BEST album ever yesterday. Seriously, you all need it, even those who hate Wu, gerrid you'll lvoe this judging by your passion for Supreme Clientele.

Only Built 4 Cuban Linx by Raekwon, guest starring Tony Starks aka Ghostface Killah.

Brilliant beyond brilliance.

Hey, got NWA's greatest hits today.

Funny as hell :-)

I've got 'white lines' as one of mine!!

Just dowonloaded Rappers Delight ringtone for my phone.

Quite cool..
