seriously, every time i hear that line in the song now i crave that garlic bread they used to have at the wendy's superbar

― violent j (sandboxhulkington), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 16:23 (seventeen years ago) link

haha I hadn't noticed that, awesome.

I think my favorite weird CP graphic lately has been that picture of the cat with thick marker Xing out its eyes that ran next to at least 2 different book reviews recently (both of which had plot points about cat murder).

sometimes i kinda want to quit my job and just photoshop nonsense for the paper all day

since I finally stopped adjusting my top 06 albums and committed to a 'final' list the other day, i should post the hip hop top 10 here before I start wanting to drastically change it again:

1. T.I. - King
3. The Roots - Game Theory
5. Birdman & Lil Wayne - Like Father, Like Son
6. Nas - Hip Hop Is Dead
8. Ray Cash - Cash On Delivery
11. Lupe Fiasco - Food & Liquor
12. Young Dro - Best Thang Smokin'
14. Styles P. - Time Is Money
17. Field Mob - Light Poles And Pine Trees
21. Rhymefest - Blue Collar

― Al (Alex In Baltimore), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 16:44 (seventeen years ago) link

how is the whole ray cash album? (aside from being yr number 5.) i didn't even know "bumpin my music" was a rick rock beat until a few days ago.

― violent j (sandboxhulkington), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 16:48 (seventeen years ago) link

it's really consistent in an unspectacular but enjoyable way. like a baby King.

― Al (Alex In Baltimore), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 16:50 (seventeen years ago) link

"Payback" is great and the "Bumpin My Music" remix is one of the best songs I heard all year. I don't like the album as much as Al and I find it confusing that he's checking out crack fiends' 'tight ass jeans.'

― deej (deej), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 16:52 (seventeen years ago) link

hah uh that is Ray Cash is checking out fiends, not Al.

― deej (deej), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 16:53 (seventeen years ago) link

hhaha true, that song is weird, but the beat is great. i think it's just that i forgot about the album for a while, and then put it in the car a few weeks ago and realized that there's not a single wack song on it, which is hard to say about even some much better rap albums.

― Al (Alex In Baltimore), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

if only i knew amon's real name...i would have asked them to look into buying his nas-with-burger picture like they bought sean carruther's nikolai-volkoff-with-vacuum cleaner.

i have "beef" w/ CP

― amon (amon), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 18:42 (seventeen years ago) link

haha what, do you work for the Talking Head? or the National Great Blacks In Wax Museum?

― Al (Alex In Baltimore), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 18:44 (seventeen years ago) link

nah, i just refuse to work for joe maccrappyartdirectorwithashittycolumn

― amon (amon), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 18:57 (seventeen years ago) link

it was awhile ago so more like a dustdevil of beef at this point

― amon (amon), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 19:28 (seventeen years ago) link

so, small enough to inhale, I guess. his column's definitely a bit overly wacky but Funny Paper = G.O.A.T.

― Al (Alex In Baltimore), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 19:36 (seventeen years ago) link

he's a good graphic designer and movie reviewer but freelancing for him is a waste of time. i hope they treat/pay their writers better.

now i'm imagining nas scraping ground beef into little lines and snorting them

what, do you work for the Talking Head?

i was gonna ask about this, but now i see the article. yeesh.

one month passes...

Rhymefest WTF?

― The Reverend (Rodney J. Greene), Thursday, 15 February 2007 04:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Is there anything new that's good in hip-hop right now? I'm not being rhetorical, but it's been a while since I've heard anything.

― Shadowcat (A-Ron Hubbard), Thursday, 15 February 2007 05:21 (seventeen years ago) link

TVT's Hyphy Hitz comp is really good. A few odd singles I've been into: UGK "The Game Belongs to Me"; Trick Daddy "Tuck Ya Ice"; Mike Jones "Mr. Jones"; Wes Fif "Haters Everywhere".

― The Reverend shines like a lighthouse (Rodney J. Greene), Thursday, 15 February 2007 05:36 (seventeen years ago) link

That UGK song is really great.

― 31g (31g), Thursday, 15 February 2007 06:29 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah it seems like after the glut of 4th quarter releases, there's barely been a single major label or high profile rap release in the first couple months of 2007. mostly people dropping singles and mixtapes to gear up for albums in March or later. i'm kind of using the lull to dig back into older shit. this thread was way better than the rolling snap thread on the real ILM though.

i had a dream about a new mike jones video featuring kanye in an mf doom-style mask. wtf??

― violent j (sandboxhulkington), Thursday, 15 February 2007 15:33 (seventeen years ago) link

it started out sampling some children's song but then went into the lil jon beat from the heineken commercial.

― violent j (sandboxhulkington), Thursday, 15 February 2007 15:33 (seventeen years ago) link

actually it only covered half of kanye's face, so i guess it was more like mfantom of the opera.

― violent j (sandboxhulkington), Thursday, 15 February 2007 15:35 (seventeen years ago) link

i also missed amon's "beef" upthread

― violent j (sandboxhulkington), Thursday, 15 February 2007 15:39 (seventeen years ago) link

kanye rapping about women is really annoying. see: throw some d's remix

One of These Things (Is Not Like The Others)
Words and Music by Joe Raposo and Jon Stone

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn't belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

― and what (ooo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 16:54 (seventeen years ago) link

As do Nas & Kanye. As much as I hate to say it, KRS sounds like an asshat.

― The Reverend shines like a lighthouse (Rodney J. Greene), Thursday, 15 February 2007 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

KRS-One hasn't been on a hit single this decade. Easy.

― White Collar Boxer (DomPassantino), Thursday, 15 February 2007 16:57 (seventeen years ago) link

the just blaze beat on the juelz santana nike song (or at least the one that was used on a nike commercial) is pretty boss, altho not particularly ground-breaking

― max (maxreax), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Saw a video by MIMS last night. I have never encountered such a talented and idiosyncratic individual in my life.

― rappist (HGULTRUISLIM), Sunday, 18 February 2007 09:02 (seventeen years ago) link

The rapping is a lot moving to me. Many hit the songs from Rakim have excited it and the dance has rendered me. I cannot imagine living without to play these impressive tracks of dry blow of the same stimulant in cold mine jeep.

J-Kwon has rendered it a lot tipsy with its cold song. Deej from ILX says to me approximately a lot, better tracks from the dirty south. Black people will play this music and this is the music that I will always play in order.

― pablo (Pablo), Sunday, 18 February 2007 10:30 (seventeen years ago) link

why is everyone so crazy about this plodding Juelz/Blaze bullshit?

― Al (Alex In Baltimore), Sunday, 18 February 2007 14:10 (seventeen years ago) link

I'd kill to have Juelz NOT on it with his "SO GLORIOUS...(uh)...VICTORIOUS" bullshit, but I'll roll with Just Blaze as long he's on the bombastic triumphalism thing.
