> still around. (Jay-Z & Roc-A-Fella are bearable lyrically, IMHO. Check > Jay-Z's "Dead Presidents" LP if you don't belive me.) actually, i kind of hate jay-z's lyrics...but i like his flows, in general. i think his stuff is better musically than lyrically, anyway-- i dig the faux-timbaland (which would be faux-faux-jungle) beats on his "jigga what jigga who" song. i agree that good hip hop is blowing up, finally. i think everyone has gotten over 2pac/biggie/last gasps of gangsta, and now there's a huge vacuum that everybody from CoFlow to eminem is rushing into. > their integrity and without corny ass pop beats. even Prince Paul, Brand > Nubian, Cool Breeze, and Blackstar had mild hits. plus, prince paul will be keeping it up with those two projects with the automator and other folks...i just dug out an old 3rd bass tape last week, and little did i know that prince paul did much of the production! > and for what it's worth, Rawkus' soundboming II comp debuted at #30 on > billboard last week which, for what it's worth, is amazing. bahamadia (guest on roni size's album) guests on a reflection eternal track that's just mind-blowing. > i'm telling you wack hip hop will die in the near future. well, not likely...there's always bad mc's and wack beats. BUT, we're in a new golden age! ooops...IDM content. well, hell, i just spent five days in the back woods of pennsylvania. the closest thing to idm i've heard all week was the lightsabers in star wars. r o b !
