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.

Suns shining, always gets me in the mood for something a bit different. Listening to some Jedi Mind Tricks at the moment, pretty impressed so far, always see them being recommended so I thought I'd take the plunge. Very different to my usual taste anyway.

I never liked Cypress Hill, don't know why. I think it's more for stoners to listen to when they are off their heads.

Download?

I don't have any filesharing stuff - don't trust it.
I'll keep an eye out though, and ask my friends if they've got any.

Lately I've been listening to more of that mix CD and a bit of Cypress Hill too, who are alright.

Hmm.. I don't really like the orchestral beat.

Did you check out any of the songs I recommended? Most of those rappers can rap circles around Gangstarr.

The songs are all very different and they sound "mixed" rather than naturally leading on although the mixing could have you fooled. I think it was the rappers sounding different on different tracks made it sound like a compilation.

Still very good though. :-)

Just that one to my knowledge, but you should be able to tell if it's all Gangstarr, because it will be the same guy rapping and the drum beat on all the songs should be very similar if not the same.

EPMD - Symphony 2000

Excellent song.

And Asher, what was the name of the Big L mixtape you bought?
