Excellent spoken word over beats style stuff from Saul Williams (who just added another reason to make me jealous of those of you attending the diskono nights!) and Sarah Jones. Intros and stuff by Kool Keith/Sir Melinik and De La. Lots of underground shzitz like talib kweli, Cipher Complete (any relation to the Cipher who just released an album on Bomb?) My only complaint is that the J5 track had no cut chemist scratch work outs or anything, and an overall lack of turntablist action, but then again it is the LYRICIST lounge... it's excellent. np: mike zoot: all in my own... i was thinkin about ordering one of his twelves from the ps: thx to those who spoke up about my good trading\ mlt _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
