9th Wonder and Buckshot-The Formula

Little Brother- Getback
Little Brother- And Justus For All

LB is creeping up my list of all time fav groups. I shyed away from these two albums at first because of 9th Wonder's absence, but honestly these albums are BANGERS, especially Getback. Phonte is a beast and Big Pooh isn't far behind him on these joints.

Little Brother is gay

Fuck you Shon.

I co-sign Linker, Fuck You Shon. Little Brother is awesome!

Little Brother is gay. And mad overrated.

Fuck you too Steven.

Co-Sign, y'all niggas is crazy!

Today I've listened to...

Kooley High - Kooley is High
Willie Bobo - Spanish Grease
Little Brother - Separate But Equal (The Drama Free Edition)
Fiend - There's One in Every Family

What the fuck? How is Little Brother gay? If you think dope hip hop is gay, then I guess Little Brother would be gay.

I think you are gay...Are you dope hip-hop?

I think that quote was gay

Co-Sign times infinity!! Little Brother is one of the most lyrical groups of all time. I love their originality and deep subject matter.

The Minstrel Show, The Listening, and The Chitlin Circuit 1.5 are all fuckin CLASSICS!

"

Quote of the year! haha

I just can't get into Little Brother (. none at all.). They make good music, and I like The Listening, but that's about it

Personally, I like the Minstrel Show better than The Listening although both are great albums. If they're not your cup of tea that's fine, but they definitely ain't gay.

I went to a Little Brother show and Phonte asked if he could get into my Chitlin' Circuit... if that ain't gay I don't know what is.

That would make them gay. Also, Rapper Big Pooh only has to take a big poo after hanging out with Phonte...

**GONG** Don't quit ur day jobs guys

And I think your an asshole. But who cares? This is a hip hop forum. Last time I checked, you talk about hip hop in a hip hop forum and not about wondering if someone is gay....

Damn Game Theory, those some heavy words to be throwin' around in a forum when you so new, slow your roll cowboy.

I don't wonder... it's pretty easy to see you swing the other way... I was just pointing out the wackness in your analogy.

You're pointing out the wackness in my quote by calling me gay? Dude if you think my comment was wack, then fine. Just tell me it was wack. Don't call me gay. It was a fucking joke man.

Look, I'm not here to start shit over the fucking internet. That shit is for middle school girls. I'm just here to learn about good hip hop that I don't know about. So can we end this bullshit?

There's no beef man. It was a joke... meant to highlight the fallacies of logic. Nothing personal at all. I don't mind LB, don't find them as dope as everyone says, but nonetheless I have bought all their CDs and still own them. They still gay though.

"Don't call me gay. It was a fucking joke man."

.... Pot, ke...

Dammit!! I knew it was to good to be true!...lol. I like his album it has a good sound and flow to it.

Marco Polo & Torae-Double Barrel
Public Enemy-Muse Sick-N-Hour Mess Age
Public Enemy-He Got Game
Public Enemy-It Takes A Nation
Rakim-The Master

that's a helluva list Terry, you've been bumping some HIP-HOP!

for myself:

Buckshot and 9th Wonder-The Formula (this has not come out of the changer since I first bought it)

Redman and Method Man-Blackout 2
Public Enemy-Yo! Bum Rush the Show
Busta Rhymes-Back On My Bullshit
Guy-Guy
Median-Median's Relief

You don't hear anyone talking about Median anymore, they use to praise that album like the 2nd coming on amazon. Still a good album to me but I don't play it much anymore.

Powell, Terry, anybody did you check out Asher Roth?

I bumped the Asher Roth when it was released, and I haven't listened since. It was ok for what it was, but i am definitely not the intended demographic.

I checked out Asher Roth. I like his deeper songs the best, the weed song was funny, but the album has some stinkers on it. Dude should never attempt a club song ---EVER! His biggest mistake is trying to grab everybody at once. In my opinion he has serious potential to disappear though. Needless to say, his album (in general) was a cd that I was glad I tried before I bought it. I think if he stayed on the serious tip, or done some spoken word style stuff, he would have done better. Overall, he gets a 2 MAYBE 3 stars out of 5 because I don't see myself replaying the album at all. Three stars is pushing it though.

OC - Word Life
J Dilla - Jay Stay Paid
Marco Polo/Torae - Double Barrel
AZ - Pieces of Man

J Dilla - Jay Stay Paid (good so far after one spin)
Jedi Mind Tricks- Violent By Design (big disappointment so far, no where near as good as "Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell")
Blue Scholars- Joe Metro EP (It's Blue Scholars, they never disappoint...duh)
Canibus- Rip the Jacker (I bought this a long time ago but never gave it a real listen until now, because lately I'm becoming a Jedi Mind Tricks stan and I gotta listen to all of Stoupe's work. Man I was sleeping hard on this album, I'm loving Stoupe's production and Canibus just kills it on the mic)
Jedi Mind Tricks- Animal Rap Ep (I usually don't buy singles, but man the "Animal Rap" remix is just nuts that I had to get a hard copy of it and buying the single was the only way I can get my hands on this masterpiece. Dope ass beat!)
