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.

Shame on a ni99a
Brooklyn Zoo
Cuttin Headz

I got Lifestylez.. Listened to the first 3 songs so far, Put it On is good, MVP isn't, No Endz No Skinz is.

Er, I hate 50 cent/G-Unit. G-G-G-G-UNIT!! Hehe what crap. I mean, feuding with Ja Rule?! Pfft how pathetic is that. Most of the Hip Hop Artists out now all are the same with no different styles and talk about the same stuff. Only a few actually entertain me anymore.

The only few modern artists that have entertained me who are releasing records now are, Kanye West and Eminem.

Jay-Z and Nas have both gone so downhill with their silly poppy songs. (I know I can/ Hard Knock Life). Compare Illmatic, one of the best albums of all time to God's Son.

Hmm. Does anyone know any good ODB songs, or any good artists/songs in general for me to look at?

I got that Hip Hop by Royce.....it's ok...

:¬D

I like G-Unit, Beg for mercy has some good songs on it. As Asher said Banks and Yayo are good, as well as Young Buck.

It's just 50 Cent who I suppose lets them down but they need him to appeal to the mass market.

I still like 50 Cent, many songs on Get Rich or Die tryin' are great, it's just the ones he realased that aren't too good.

They're not that bad, Banks and Yayo are good.

It's like it's going back to the good old days of Hip Hop, one MC just there spitting. Makes a change from the usual barrage of multi million dollar videos and 50 cent quality songs (a deliberate pun). Definitly is good to have a song that's not going on about how many times that rapper got shot, how many ho's he has, how much money and jewellery he's got and what he's car is riding on.


Just like to take this time to also say G-Unit is the worst group ever to smear itself on rap music.

Me too I love that song Hip-Hop.

Starting to get back into Royce da 5'9" now. Hip Hop is excellent and Mr Baller is good too. Might actually go out and buy this album.

Black is Back is good, or what 've heard. It's 9th Wonder remixing like every song.

Anyone heard The Grey Album? It's accapellas from The Black Album over tracks all made from samples of The Beatles' White Album. It's by DJ Danger Mouse who released a really good album last year with Gemini. You can't get it any shops (legally at least) but it's on bittorrent and soulseek to download. I don't like Jay Z but there are some really good tracks on there and it's worth downloading just to pee off Paul McCartney.
