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.

OK, thanks anyway. I think they're from the 'Things Fall Apart' period, but I'm really not sure. I'm sure I can find something on the net.

What do you guys think of 50 cent?

Oh and I heartily reccomend

Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol.2

Good album.

Good question but I haven't got a clue, I've only seen a couple of their videos. My guess is if it was a couple of years ago then the songs would be off the Phrenology, god knows which songs though.

Sounds like a job for Tiltawhirl.

10 points goes to anyone who can tell me which songs, by The Roots, have the videos like:

Video 1: Kind of a pish-take on the generic Rap video, with the cars, booze and ladies. The 'Beat-down' and 'Blurred-out logos' shots also feature and are pointed out.

Video 2: The guys are on a stage of sorts, and every time the curtain closes and reopens, they're in a different position i.e. on the wall, upside down, backs facing the audience etc.

these might be the same song. I haven't seen either of them for years but want to check them out again.

Cheers.

Buy his album - it's next on my list. Just got Common - Be. Excellent.

Has anyone heard John Legend's new song "Ordinary People"? I didn't like his previous song with Kanye West in it but this one is good.

I wouldn't buy his album but I might download this song.

I did.

:D

Please take that comment in a non sarcastic way!!

Then clearly your taste in hip hop is as good as your taste in football teams!!
