[BIG DADDY!!!]

Ive just recently got back into hip hop. I thought that after 2pac and Biggie died it went downhill big time with Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre loosing form and the emergence of Eminem (I just cant take him seriously). So could anyone please name a few classic hip hop songs that I should download and any tracks that I should have already

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

I don't no why the hell I keep hanging here even though I don't like hip hop at all... :undecide: Maybe it's just too obvious, I'm stupid...

 

[Jeannette]

Maybe you like, but don't know about that yet.

I'll tell you some :

Xzibit - Alkaholik
DMX - Where the hood at
Sean Paul ft. Blu Cantrell - Breathe
50 Cent - In Da Club
50 Cent - Patiently waiting
Method Man ft. Redman - Da Rockwilder
Eminem - Superman
Eminem - Soldier
Eminem - Say goodbye Hollywood
Angie Martinez - If I could go
Twista feat. Kanye West - Celebrity Overnight

etc. etc.

I'd say Luniz "I got five on it"- NECESSARILY and Ludacris "Move".

I kind of like Eminem despite the fact that he's a moron sometimes... :undecide:

 

[Jeannette]

See... But, you're right, sometimes he is, but his music is great.

I've downloaded 'X' from Xzibit and 'Move' from Ludacris and they're simply great.

Here are, in my opinion the future leaders of where hip-hop is going, in a positive and creative sense.


The Roots- Need I say more? A true hip-hop band.

Kanye West- Brilliant producer, and damn good lyricist with a flow that most rap veterans would kill for.

Blackalicious- If you haven't heard Gift of Gab rhyme, then you aren't a true hip-hopper.

The Streets- obviously

Talib Kweli- the "other half" of Black Star, but also the better half, IMO

Common- eclectic, smooth, and does his own thing with style. I can respect that.

Dilated Peoples- Someday, this LA based group will hit it big, they deserve to.

Jurassic 5- absolutely amazing group. 4 MC's, 2 DJ's, and some of the best track layering that you'll ever hear.


edit-I copied this from another post I had done about 5 months ago. Didn't feel like doing it again.

He's 32.


His new album "Encore", comes out Nov. 16th.

Nope, he's 32.


Anyway, the big hip-hop album that's coming out will be Nas' "Street's Disciple", coming out on the 28th.


That, and De La Soul's new one "Grind Date" also on the 28th, should set the rap world straight again.


Big, Big day for new releases if you're a hip-hop fan.

Never been that much of a fan of Nasty Nas. :undecide:

I am anticipating this new album from Em though.

The best MC on the planet, and one of the top 5 all-time, along with Tupac, Biggie, Rakim, and Chuck D.
