Please learn to read, one of the first posts in this thread mentioned Moment of Truth.

Lyin,

I would find your posts in this thread a lot more tolerable if you didn't keep couching opinion as fact.

Questioning the authenticity of Atmosphere and then bigging up Cam'ron just seems odd, to me, but whatever.

NT,

I can see where you're coming from with Aesop and Atmosphere, I don't reallly agree with your assesment of your music, but it makes sense.

WRT to Gangstar:

Primo is god, obviously. Guru however, bores the living daylights out of me. Some very very good individual songs, but I cna't deal with Guru over the course of a whole album.

Re: The Hip-Hop Thread, or Dids\'s Top 10 Hip-Hop Albums
 

I concede the point Dids, but others seem to be gleaning much from the content of my posts, rather than focusing om the tenor. For that I am pleased.

I'm more than just a casual observer to this musical phenomenon, so perhaps I carry extra baggage. Also, I mentioned GS's Daily Operation in my thread as well. Guru seems to elicit that love/hate reaction; I enjoy the way he seems to cut right through a record via what seems like normal speech. He's talking right to you. I also really like his short verbal capsules.

I like Guru. His voice and rapping style have a great flow. He is very easy to understand and can spit some crazy [censored]. Premo lays it down. Gangstarr is ill. Full Clip FTW.

Re: The Hip-Hop Thread, or Dids\'s Top 10 Hip-Hop Albums
 

Obviously not among the best albums ever, or even close, but I have not been able to stop listening to Monkey Barz by Sean Price for a week or so now. Sean P absolutely kills [censored]. Jesus Price Superstar is also good, stronger lyrically, but weaker production wise.

Boot Camp! Gotta love 'em. Sean has managed to resurrect his career to some degree, good for him.

Seriously, I'm shocked that it took a solid ten page worth of posts before the BCC was mentionned again. Enta Da Stage, Dah Shinin' (Soud Bwoy Bureil is quite possibly the illest rap beat of all time), Nocturnal. I know that they slipped horribly with the release of the first Boot camp album, but their classics can't be denied.

Smif n Wessun remains the best live show I've ever seen. Such good energy. Their stuff stands the test of time.

Suite, Sound Bwoy is the backdrop song on my MySpace page. Ha. Where you from, sir?

Montreal via Haiti. I actually missed the damn Boot Camp show in Montreal and I heard I missed quite the classic. Grr..

"Boom bye bye/in a botty bwoy head/
