Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
[ QUOTE ]
Jay I'd imagine you've never heard of Talib Kweli (he's not hugely recognized in the States) who is featured in the new avatar (ballin). He's unreaaaal though. His new album Eardrum is quite excellent too. [/ QUOTE ] is this a joke william? talib is huge in the states if u want a person who won't sign with big record companies even tho they nag him constantly with huge deals, and is the top artist its brother ali or atmosphere. They are both much better than whats out there. its ashame they tour constantly and want to be kept underground cuz less people here them. |

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
yeah kweli is the reason I started listening to hip hop, I had kind of dismissed it before I listened to the Black Star album. On that note if you like intelligent, articulate guys like Kweli, listen to Mos Def, probably the 'Black on Both Sides' album.

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
you guys in the states who like talib should check out k-os. Dude is super sick, but he never really made it in the American market.
His best CD IMO is Joyful Rebellion |

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
Jesus christ I'm listening to K-OS right now. This thread makes me so happy. Any of his 3 albums are really really good, but year I probably like Joyful Rebellion best. He's got a pretty serious alcohol problem right now.

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
Yikes. I've recently taking a liking to the song Fantastique by K-OS though.
Mos is sick, Talib, sick, Common, meh solid, you guys will probably like Lupe Fiasco too if you like those 3, Kanye, sick, also Hi-Tek, De la Soul, Strange Fruit Project, Gang Starr, and my boy RHYMEFEST BABY. |

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
I went through a huge hip hop phase in my late teens. Eminem at the forefront.
Bone Thugz - Crossroads for the win tho. Crowded House are the greatest band in the world. James Taylor is also awesome. |

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
Don't know if you guys have ever heard of Cormega, but he's pretty dirty too. Him and Nas are both from the Queensbridge area and were rivals growing up. The Saga (Remix) is his best work imho.

Re: ***SSNL LIFE THREAD NOV***
Y'all will like Let There be Light by Nas, and probably most of Hip Hop is Dead.
BTW Nas is so so so so sick. His list of gold just goes on and on, but I would say the bulk of it is more hood/angry. |
