I just scooped up MF Doom's Scars and Memories for $5.00!!! That's right $5.00! It wasn't a bootleg and it was in mint condition with the bar code in tact!

Wow...excellent deal. Bar code in tact too, that's a pretty good steal. Did you get it from Amazon?

Yeah. I got it from Amazon. The guy didn't know what he had, and I took advantage.

How is that WC? Is it worth a purchase?

Purchases:

Raekwon-Shaolin Vs Wu-Tang

Spins:

Raekwon "Shaolin Vs Wu Tang"....Dope as shit.....not Cuban Linx 1 or 2 IMO, but this is the type of CD that could have been released instead of Immobilarity or The Lex Diamond Story. I'll spin it some more before I give a rating. If you can, get your hands on the Itunes bonus tracks, "Wu Crime" w/Rae, GZA & Killah Priest and "My World, Your World" w/Rae & Havoc.

X Clan "To The East, Blackwards"

I'll look for those tracks later. There is no reason for them to not be included on the cd considering it's not even 50 minutes long.

Lately I picked up:

The Reavers: Terror Firma...if you're down with Backwoodz, you'll dig this
DC the MIDI Alien...all around excellent, Mistah FAB's only competition so far 2011
Hayes Carll: KMAG YOYO...a country boy who drinks too much and smokes too much dope. He also happens to write some great songs.
Cunninlynguists...looking forward to this, I'm not even checking the tracks that are already out

I was going to go to Best Buy and grab Rae's album after dinner last night. I decided to wait and get it at the local mom & pop shop today, instead. I don't mind paying a little more, it's time to start voting at the checkout.

How is that WC? Is it worth a purchase?

Man I did not buy it and i'm a fan. Its a decent album just not worth the money imo. But thats off one listen. Its typical new school WC like I said on the amazon thread...lol. Meaning he's still on that same ole same ole style he picked up around Bow Down and Ghetto Heisman. Its not as good as his last album though.

Spins:

CunninLynguists- Oneirology

Kno sent me a zip file of it last night

LOL, how is it?

Also, link me up.

The album is amazing. The production really stands out and it is a lot different from any of their other albums. I already like it more than Dirty Acres and that is a personal classic.

And I'm afraid I can't link you up. I promised Kno I wouldn't give it to anyone. Plus he said he would break my other arm if I did (my left arm is currently broken) haha.

Kno wouldn't break your other arm, you wouldn't be able to jack him off if he did...lol...

By the way, I am a bit jealous... early access to the album is major love for his die hard fans.

Spins:

DC The Midi Alien - Avengers Airwaves --> I love it!

Spins:

Raekwon "Immobilarity"- After swearing not to ever put this on my Itunes. I put the CD on there Thursday night so I could spin this today to give it another chance. Unfortunately, this is as bad as I thought it was back in the day. The CD has its moments especially on tracks like Sneakers, The Table, Fuck Them, Live In NY, Yae Yo and Casabalanca, but overall this isn't even close to either Cuban Linx CD or Shaolin Vs Wu Tang.

Man I truly dig it. So much I put it in my top 10 for this year. I was very surprised he could hold down a solo album but he picked the right beats. Have you heard it?

Nah, not yet. I'll probably check it out, though. Joell never did anything for me as a solo artist.

wow nice to see you gave Bastard a spin

Bastard is the shit. I honestly wasn't feeling it that much when I first listened to it, but it has really grown on me. Can't wait for Goblin. Yonkers was crazy good.

Yeah man I finally got around to it after some more hype got behind him. When you 1st posted about them I think it was a overload and hard to focus on the quality over that quanity you posted. Bastard sounded pretty good I like they are craving their own lane.

Saigon - GSNT - all i have to say is this album is really really fucking good. At first i thought it was cool,, but it didnt hit me, then i spun it about 10 times last week and damn...this is some true shit right here. This is definitely an album that will grow on you. So many good tracks on here and it flows perfectly, a really well put together album. The song with Layzie >>>

Rza - Bobby Digital in Stereo (obviously hence the thread)

Canibus - 2000 BC

MF Grimm and MF Doom - Special Herbs and Spice Vol. 1

any HRSMN related track

Royce Da 5'9" - Build and Destroy

Recent purchases:

Pharoahe Monch- W.A.R. (We Are Renegades) (6 tracks in and the album sounds solid as hell.)

Cunninlynguists- Oneirology (Unfortunately I didn't pre order the album, so I got stuck buying the regular edition from Best Buy. Gonna give it a spin after I'm done with the Monch)

I almost wish I hadn't pre-ordered the CL. At least I'd have it. They need to get it together with the pre-orders.
