The Hip-Hop FC

[-Bakkun-]

I am surprised that this hasn't been done before so I'm creating it : The Hip-Hop FC !!! If you're the kind of person that hates hip-hop...

DON'T POST YOUR STUPID "RAP IS CRAP" COMMENTS HERE.

Here's the deal ; If we can get at least 20 members in here, I'll start making a list of good albums with help from other members. Why with other members ? Because I'm kind of new to good(been listening to mainstream for 8 years) hip-hop (just started listening to Black Star, Mos Def, and Immortal Technique and I'm loving it). So just post to join :P

[TriSal]

ooii, is it already dead in here????

[Nybarius]

Rap is something you do, hip-hop is something you love. I'm in.

Check out the Music Cult, by the way -- I set up an FTP and uploaded a whole lot of dope hip-hop.

I hope we get to do recomendations that'd be cool also mixtapes and stuff!

[BlueCheese]

What I have been listening to recently

Masta Ace - A Long Hot Summer
Common - Be
Little Brother - The Listening
O.C. - Starchild

[Niabingi]

yeah trisal sat was proper interesting! where abouts are da rappers from?

I think we should just put up resommendations and crap regardless of amount of members

[Solemn_Thinker]

I agree with Niabingi. In fact, I'm going to put up a review of K. West's new album "Late Registration" later this week (or whenever I get a chance :sweatdrop)

[BlueCheese]

I really didn't think much of Late Registration. I was very dissapointed. Anyway new Little Brother album in 9 days, can't wait for that.

[Maffy the Love Doctor]

count me in, i'm a big fan of hip hop (mostly stuff from the '80s and '90s but there is some new stuff that i like :)).

[TriSal]

yeah trisal sat was proper interesting! where abouts are da rappers from?

They from Sweden. Loop Troop are starting to get more famous here in europe, glad you liked it.....

[Niabingi]

I really liked late registartion I felt it was a huge improvement on his first album which was for me a resounding dissapointment, I felt that he has a good sense of musicality and alot of talent as a producer and the college droupout just didnt deliver!

sweden... I have heard that there is a good hiphop scene out there!

Im gonna tell everyone to check out commons new album Be since I love da guy and its been an age since he had a good album I want as many people as possible to check it out!

[-Bakkun-]

Did you hear the news ? BET banned Little Brother's video because it's "too intelligent for BET's audience". LMAO

[BlueCheese]

Oh your kidding me? That is stupid, Little brother are awesome.

Edit: What part of that video is too intelligent?

[-Bakkun-]

No, it's not the video, BET thinks their audience is not interested in intelligent hip-hop. MF Doom and Mos Def were banned for the same reason (the list of banned MCs is much longer though).

[BlueCheese]

Well that is bloody stupid. How can they ban such awesome stuff.

[Solemn_Thinker]

Well that is bloody stupid. How can they ban such awesome stuff.

Easy. The executives in control of BET think their viewers only like booty-shaking, gangter-posing, and showing off material wealth. Which is funny because few of us, regardless of race, can actually afford or even want to live a lifestyle like that. There's also the issue that no one Black owns BET...

I'm still writing the review for LR if anyone actually still cares. Overall, I feel that it improved on what TCD did good, but it's lacking something. There are occasional misses, but it's definitely one of the better albums of the year so far.

On another issue, I think 2005 has been a bad year for rap. There are no real standouts lyrically outside of Common's BE. (I'm sure there are others, but I don't know about them/they got poor promotion). The Documentary was a good debut, but it wasn't much, The Massacre was weak, Who Is Mike Jones was poor, and the list continues. The only albums I'm waiting for is The Minstrel Show and Nasdaq Dow Jones.

[BlueCheese]

Great albums this year:
O.C. - Starchild
Jneiro Jarel - Three Pieced Puzzle
Common - Be

Minstrel Show from the sampler sounds amazing, I think it's a good year.

[pnoypridz]

nice club im joining

can someone upload me the new little brother

[BlueCheese]

It's out on 13th, all people have heard is a sampler.

[pnoypridz]

oh ok cool thnx for the info

http://www.theemcee.com/media/video/Top5compressed.wmv

watch this vid... this is my fav vid ever

[sik4rilz]

i'm in. late registration is sweet. lol.

[Niabingi]

BET is ridiculous in my opinion anyway I mean I aint an american but when I was out there I really didnt enjoy watching music vids on that channel anyhow I cant beleive they banned such goood artists!

Im very much looking forward to Little Brothers album as well, albums of the year so far would have to be me just repeating what everybody else has said!!

I wanted to ask people about local hiphop! anyone got any local hiphop they think is good?? (non mainstream i guess you could say!)

[Aman]

I'm joining.

[BlueCheese]

Bought Nicolay's instrumental album called City Lights Volume 1.5 today (he's the guy that teamed up with Phonte from Little Brother to form Foreign Exchange). It's seriously good. Definately worth checking out.

[Niabingi]

[Niabingi]

[BlueCheese]

Yeah man it's good, really like it.

[Niabingi]

Yeah man it's good, really like it.

then I cant wait till I get paid so I can go buy it!!
okay to fuel some discussion here let me ask you opinion on the best groups in HipHop.... (dont list like 20 keep it to aorund 3)
mine is..... Outkast.... I have my reasons but i wanaa check how many people will agree with me before I explain!

[BlueCheese]

Oh Outkast are amazing. Especially there early stuff. I absolutely love Aquemini.

I'll say De La Soul.

[Dat_Nigga_Jamal]

what the fucc is this fc stuff about? also who would join a suge knight fc

[Niabingi]

what the fucc is this fc stuff about? also who would join a suge knight fc

:blink
no i wouldnt joing a suge knight fc....

oh and good choice BlueCheese! De La Soul were definetly on my shortlist but Outkasts consistency won out in the end...(never a bad album thats an amazing record)

[BlueCheese]

Indeed, I remember when they wern't famous over here and Ms. Jackson had been available on their album for months. Then suddenly everyone was singing it. I was like wtf?

[Niabingi]

hahahaha yeah me too I was secretly quite pissed of cos before I viewed them as an exclusive thing (well in the uk at least) and if people knew than they knew but suddenly they were everywhere!

still waiting for others to post on their favourite hiphop groups.... or anything to stimulate a conversation that isnt just between me and BlueCheese!

I see your from the uk as well bluecheese are you a fan of any Uk HipHop or grime?

[BlueCheese]

I like UK Hip Hop but I must say I don't know that much about it. Favourite is definately Skinnyman, his album is up there with the very best Hip Hop albums.

I remember being in school and suddenly hearing "I'm sorry miss jackson" I was like wtf did you just say? But it was just so strange cos they came so suddenly and that album had been out ages.

[pnoypridz]

imo best rap group are the jurassic 5

[BlueCheese]

Interesting choice, they make some great stuff.

[Niabingi]

I like UK Hip Hop but I must say I don't know that much about it. Favourite is definately Skinnyman, his album is up there with the very best Hip Hop albums.


yeah it was a good album for definate but I really dont like skinnyman at all his persona and knowing him and what i know about him makes his music seem false...... alot of my friends rap so im quite in tune with the Uk hiphop scene...

imo best rap group are the jurassic 5

very interesting choice very "alternative" they are however a very cool and talented group not quintessentally hiphop but still hiphop enough to count..

[BlueCheese]

Ok so what UK artists would you reccomend?

[Niabingi]

hmm good Uk artists.... Roots Manuva, Klashnekoff and Jehst is okay his lyrics are kinda abstract though...
Most of the people I think are really good are just people I know to be honest...

Anyway its payday today so im gonna get the new Little brother at last!!

[BlueCheese]

Well I know about Roots Manuva and Klashinekoff. Have albums by both of them. Jehst I know nothing about.

Yeah definately get LB album, I think it gets better from each listen but I have to say there aren't too many amazing songs on it but it's solid throughout

Oh and another fantastic group is Cunninglynguists.

[Phraject]

I'll join, hopefully there's some space left.
I mostly listen to Grime (mix of 2Step and UK Garage) like Wiley, Lethal Bizzle.
But ofcourse plain rap is also cool.
Like Three Six Mafia, Public Enemy, Wu-Tang (especially 36 Chambers) and stuff like that.
I'm also a big fan of The Prodigy, although it isn't rap.

[Niabingi]

There is more than enuff room grime is cool im not huge on lethal bizzle i like wiley like roll deep dizee rascal and kano... I do think that it is an unrefined art its still finding its feet which is what makes it so interesting....

36 Chambers is a great and classic album it should be law that all must love that album anyway dont worry we will guide you safely down the path of hiphop and introduce you to many new and amazing things...(slight exageration but still) so welcome to the fc Phraject post loads and be active

Man bluecheese I cant stop listening to little bros new album it siiick

[BlueCheese]

Yeah it's good isn't it. Really solid throughout. Whats your favourite song?

[Phraject]

Btw, what do you guys think of Shook Ones Pt. II? From the old Mobb Deep (I'm calling it old right now, for I think it changed styles when it signed to G-Unit)
I think it still owns after all these years.

[Niabingi]

great great track infamous is a great album!
not so sure whats gonna happen with Mobb Deep now that they signed to g-unit 50cent label whatever you wanna call it.... especially cos 50 cent is cack!

as for my favourite track on the minstrel show bluecheese im so unsure its not even funny!
whats yours?

[BlueCheese]

Lovin' it is good, I'll have to listen to it again tonight to give you a better answer. I'll put it on after I finish Jneiro Jarel album.

[Niabingi]

Jneiro Jarel.... which album? three-piece puzzle?

[BlueCheese]

Indeed, can't get enough of that album. It's ridiculous that it's not that well known, even amongst Hip Hop fans.

Your right can't decide a favourite song from Little Brother album, it's all very consistent. No one song absolutley stands out, I feel the same way about Cunninglynguists. Every song is good.

[Niabingi]

dude cunnylinguists rock! they are so f***ing tight! aint heard the whole album yet though..... im gonna d-load it tonight!

[BlueCheese]

Which album you talking about? Yeah cunninglynguists rock, it's hard to find a bad song by them. Whenever I end up listening to one of their albums, I have to listen to another one of theirs. They are just soo good.

[furious styles]

sweet, the FC is finally active..i'll be contributing to the discussions and such soon.

[Niabingi]

im talking will rap for food! i have slowly got more and more of their tracks some random stuff from mixtapes and what have you and some album stuff but i wanna find a site where i can just download the whole album in one shebang none of this investigative crap im doing now!

[BlueCheese]

Ah ok, make sure you get Southernunderground too. It's a great album as well. If you want I can upload them both but it won't be up till tomorrow.

[cloin]

Bluecheese talked me into joining, so I'm here to do so. I guess I know enough to at least keep up.

[BlueCheese]

Hehehe good man. Seriously don't worry about knowledge, think about it this way, if you like something and don't know everything about it then you have lot's of opportunies to enjoy new stuff. Besides from what I have seen of your posts you know a fair amount. You shouldn't be so modest, have a little confidence.

If anyone wants the two Cunninglynguists albums I have just uploaded them.

[cloin]

I made a simple banner as a peace offering.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v698/naturalbornstupid/hip-hopfc.jpg

*edit* should you decide to use it, please host it yourself because my photobucket bandwidth is shit.

[FitzChivalry]

FC starter seems to be underground-only. Anyways, I'd like to join. Though, I'm getting bored with hip-hop, I still like it.

[cloin]

Thus far I've stuck pretty much to the underground as well. What little venturing into the mainstream I've done has left me largely unimpressed. What's going on in the undergound is much more intelligent and innovative.

[Narutomasterfan71]

plz i must join i love rap its in my blood, i'm black but race has nothin to do with music, rap gives you feelings of either sadness, happiness, anger, or even calmness, its all how the beat and lyrics are and i love that about rap, i enjoy the feeling of having a ruff day and just putting on an album to make me feel better, rap is alive and growing and anyone who says rap is for people who can't sing (i.e. my old spanish teacher) they can continue listening to watever crap they enjoy but for me VIVA LA HIP HOP/RAP

[Niabingi]

Welcome welcome to the colin, 9Tail-Hokage and Narutomasterfan! post loads let us debate and discover hiphop together!!

Bluecheese thanks alot for the cunnylyguists albums man! much appreciated seriously...

I was thinking that we need to get some direction to this fc now like i mean more of what bluecheese did putting songs on usendit for each other and what not! I was thinking it'd be cool to make a hiphop fc mixtape kinda thing so we pick a theme and every fc member picks a couple of songs to go with that theme.... if i explained that clearly i dunno

[BlueCheese]

Yeah that sounds like a great idea. Enjoy the albums they are both great. What theme do you wanna do?

[Niabingi]

theme is kinda hard to pick i was hoping to get some inspiration from other members.... dont want it to be some corny crap like it should be something kinda specific yet quirky.. original i guess... i just have no idea what at this moment

[Kucheeky Badkuya]

I'll join too.

[BlueCheese]

Ok man well I haven't got any good ideas either but hopefully someone can come up with something.

[Niabingi]

I'll join too.

and many welcomes to you be active and contribuitary! (spellling??)

hmm as regards a theme i'll keep thinking about it and see what happens... this would be easier if more of the members here were active in posting here

[BlueCheese]

Yeah it would, but this FC is really starting to grow (finally!) so hopefully more members will talk.

[K-deps]

any here a big fan of tupac or bone thugs n' harmony if so wat r ur favorite songs by them mine are

tupac:hit em up
BTNH: lets ride

[Niabingi]

okay I adore, love and cherish Tupac as far as HipHop goes as an MC tupac was very very important... more than so many others... as for favourite song cmon thats way to hard im not a fan of hit em up i like the songs that really show his conflicting nature a poet and a thug if you like.... you should check out one of his tracks called "words to my firstborn" (not letter to my unborn child which was recorded after he passed away and his vocals were put on top of some michael jackson track from the bad album)

as for bone thugs they cool but im not really a huge fan just cos i never took the time to explore their music

[DrunkenYoshimaster]

yo Im definately down for hip hop so can I join? and yeah bone thugz and Tupac are nice with it. Some of my favorite childhood rappers. "lets get PODed"

Anyway my dawg Weezy's new mixtape dropped today The Suffix, its seriously hot but what else would you expect from the youngest of the hot boys: http://files.filefront.com/LWSUFrar/;4200080;;fileinfo.html

if youre hatin on the south think they cant flow, aint about nothing deep and are hesitant to check out the whole mixtape at least check out this one freestyle, its one of the tracks bout the hurricane on there: http://s37.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2E655RDNFA4B6320YML0M9Q882

thats 14 from the mixtape., 11 also got alot on it, and a bit on 9

[BlueCheese]

Wow how come so many members joined today.

[Niabingi]

Wow how come so many members joined today.

No Clue!!!!

anyway welcome drunken yoshimaster and im gonna deff check those tune you posted! my pc is working d-loading bare stuff at the moment so i'll give them a d-load in a little bit

[Kucheeky Badkuya]

Here is my little hip-hop/rap rant:

I remeber this thread awhile ago, but I can't find it, well, I used the search button but couldn't find it. I remeber that jkingler made it. I also thought of an idea may a s-mod please auto-ban users, who drop by and say, 'Rap sucks' and thast all they wrote tha=ey don't post why and such. Saves us one last user to argue thirty pages and don't that user doesn't learn a thing.

Flame me or hate me, I love hip-hop and rap, you can't do anything aboutit. If you wanna flame me, don't flame me here. Prove me wrong of the errors you see. If you can prove me of some of my ideas are wrong than I guess I would be wrong.

I was almost a few seconds close in cracking skulls in the 'Does Rap Suck Now? ', I know I shouldn't be like that, since music has styles for everyones tastes, but some users in that thread, bitch, bitch and bitch. They listen to one rapper, lets say, 50 Cent and they think rap sucks. Well, 50 Cent may/do suck, but you should at least listen to different styles of rap, not all wanksta rap. Try groups that are more with empahize of lyrics and not how many girls you gave STD's to.

I made this thread for users who respect Hip-Hop/Rap for what it is, and listen to it and tell there opnion and why it is good or why it is bad. If you says a group stinks, why? Post song lyrics, names, beats, etc, to back up your reasoning.

Another reason for this thread is to teach a person here and there that Hip-Hop/Rap is good, and more people should listen to it, no matter where you from, age, race or religion. You have to remember that music is the universal language, not langague for one.

http://forums.narutofan.com/showthread.php?t=60937

[BlueCheese]

Yeah I saw it man and posted in it too!

[Niabingi]

i didnt see it or post in your thread but i will do for true!

[-Bakkun-]

Welcome to all of you and glas to finally see the FC active :D Since we've got 20 members, me and other members will start making a list of classics that will appear on the first page. If you think we forgot something, just PM me ! So here are my first suggestions for the list : AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted, Straight Outta Compton, The Low End Theory, Black On Both Sides, Black Star and Aquemini. What do y'all think ?

[Niabingi]

hmm its hard to say in regards to good albums... its a bit bait like, i dunno i think we should try and do more specific stuff
I maybe made no sense here!

oh and has anybody else downloaded the cunnylynguist albums that bluecheese put up on yousendit? if not i strongly advise you to!

[BlueCheese]

No I agree like when we had the discussion on which group was the best in Hip Hop.

[Niabingi]

yay exaclty something specific a new thing each month and or like i siad a mixtape at the end of the month ith the tracks we think were the best choices... something like this

[Niabingi]

So i was thinking in line with the whole mix-tape thing i was talking about and trying t think of a theme how about best collaborations? like tracks which guest star or feature a different artist that are of a high calibre we're not talking about that Ja rule ft J-Lo junk im talking proper stuff

I already have two in mind but i'll put my first selections up if everyone thinks its a good idea for a "project"

[BlueCheese]

Nice idea I'll give it some thought

[Niabingi]

okay im posting my first track on the theme of collaborations

A Tribe Called Quest ft Busta Rhymes - Scenario

[pnoypridz]

im listening to Rakim Paid in Full right now and that album is awesome

it sure stood the test of time

[Niabingi]

........
this place is really dying a death!

[-Bakkun-]

I hope I'm the only noob here who didn't give Liquid Swords a listen through all these years. Classic. Go get it somewhere. NOW !

[BlueCheese]

........
this place is really dying a death!

Ah sorry man, I need to think of some songs from your theme.

[Solemn_Thinker]

For the theme of collaborations, might I suggest...

Kanye West and Jay-Z: "Diamonds From Sierra Leone Remix"
Notorious BIG and Jay-Z: I can't remember the song, but I know the hook goes something like... "Jay-Z and Biggie Smalls, N****** s*** ya draws...where you from (BROOKLYN!!) going out to all..." It continues on shouting out various neighborhoods in Brooklyn. It was BIG and Jay at their greatest.
Method Man and Redman: "How High" and there's another one, it was more like a freestyle though than an actual song. I don't remember much from it unfortunately.
Tupac and Nas: Thugz Mansion Remix (Both Versions)
Eminem and Jay-Z: Renegades
THat song with Tupac and Scarface, I forget the name.

Did anyone see the new videos from Common's album "Be"? There's two: "Be" and "Testify". Unfortunately both songs are pretty short, especially Be, but I like both of them. The way the videos are set up do a lot for both songs. I like the "Be" video more than the "Testify" video, but "Testify" is really well done.

[rimpelcut]

you can count me in, I used to own 100GB worth hiphop but then something error'd. sorry, salam alaikum.

[Niabingi]

Eminem and Jay-Z: Renegades


the original is actually a collab between Royce da 5"9 and Eminem the beat and eminems verse are exactly the same I prefer hearing royce flow on this though even though Jay-Z is a better rapper i dont think he got or suited the essence of the song... if anyone wants to hear the original I can put it up on you send it! just let me know

welcome loco! welcome new blood is always a good thing

[Niabingi]

bump..
a shameless and unapologetic bump!

[-Bakkun-]

Bumpitty. Just got into Cunnylinguists.

[BlueCheese]

What you think?

[Solemn_Thinker]

Has anyone heard that Talib Kweli album yet? I haven't had a chance to get it yet...

[BlueCheese]

Yeah I have and to be honest it's not really that great.

[Niabingi]

I have to agree with blue cheese I was well dissapointed with Kwelis latest effort!!

hey Bakkun are you enjoying the cunnylinguists?

[-Bakkun-]

Southernundeground = good stuff.

[BlueCheese]

Yeah damn good stuff.

[-Bakkun-]

Bump... The FC is dying:cry

[Enigma7]

Lol such a coincidence.. listening to Eminem while reading this thread.. im in!

[Niabingi]

okay well drastic measures must be taken I think im gonna upload the album upwards by a london rapper called Ty I think that he is quite good and all so I will share it with all the fc members and we can discuss it I guess
Local hiphop rocks

[BlueCheese]

Ty is awesome, I missed the chance to see him live which I am really pissed off about.

[dbcomix]

who is TY?

[Anthony J. Crowley]

Joinage. Nujabes owns my soul. <3

[rimpelcut]

can I join

[-Bakkun-]

Y'all should check out "Sleep (of Oldominion) - Christopher"

[-Bakkun-]

This FC is not dead yet. I shall revive it by posting my latest discoveries.:P

Quasimoto - The Further Adventures Of Lord Quas
http://glazba.monitor.hr/recenzije/0037/slike/quasimoto.jpg
One of the weirdest and funniest albums ever. Dope beats. Just get used to his voice and you're set.

Deltron 3030
http://www.mumbleboy.com/imagefolder/4SOM/deltron1.gif
Very sci-fi sounding, great album. Flawless rhymes by Del. Hip-hop at it's best.

Hieroglyphics - 3rd Eye Vision
http://www.littlebeat.pl/catalog/images/preview/hiphop/hiero_3rdEyeVision.jpg
The best of Hieroglyphics. What more can I say ? A Classic !

OutKast - ATLiens
http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B0000013GT.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg
Another futuristic album. Big Boi and Dre's best album (tied with Aquemini).

[Mukuro]

i'll join.

plus hip hop and rap are 2 diffrent genres...

:temHip hop is a culture. Rap is a form of music which falls under this culture.

Rap is Hip hop music.

[Kush P]

Whoa?? Hip Hop FC? Didnt see it before..Its a big influence to me, sign me up

[-Bakkun-]

You're all in !

[Kush P]

Hmm right now..Im lovin the old bone thugs classics, I also found my old Ice Cube albums and some damian marley...I dont think much of most of these new rappers..

[rimpelcut]

I like 50 cent's music

[Kush P]

LOL..50 is funny looking. what do you like about his music? his flow, lyrics or just because he's a hussler??

[rimpelcut]

I have the album "The Massacre". I like the tunes and I like his voice, atleast on the albums. Also I listened to his music when I was high.smile-big
The image that 50' portrays and the things he says brings back memories.
When I first heard it I found it lacking things in singing and flow and such but then I got high and started eating the soup I once hated.
I see 50 as a certain karakter that I enjoy thinking about. Sometimes he shares some wisdom. Why don't you like him?

[Niabingi]

I really cant stand 50 cent because his musicality is just bad, his lyrics are basic and his flow isnt all that. He made his career of the back of his so-called gangsterness unyet he doesnt portray anything that seems real to street life. Oh and he also perpetuates nearly every negative myth or stereotype there is about Black males.

[Kush P]

Yep all that and he's still looks funny...50s flows ok on hooks but weak on these probably ghostwritten verses LOL!! but still he made some money, just not enough to be legendary...I rather listen to Biggie still :P..here's somebody who's fat, poor, ugly but has the greatest flow and rhyme skills in hip hop history if you aks me..

[rimpelcut]

how is the street life?

[S.o.L]

I'll join even though this FC is pretty much dead. And oh yeah stop putting Rap and Hip-Hop in the same category. It's not the samething.

[BlueCheese]

Rap is a part of hip hop so I don't see the problem

[S.o.L]

Rap and Hip-Hop are two separate genre's, they sound completely different. Rap is stuff like Dem Franchize Boyz or Yung Dro. WHhle Hip-Hop is stuff like Naz or Lupe Fiasco.

[BlueCheese]

Hip hop is a cultural movement, of which music is a part. The music is itself composed of two parts, rapping, the delivery of swift, highly rhythmic and lyrical vocals, and DJing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DJing), to compose either through sampling (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_%28music%29), turntablism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turntablism), instrumentation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_%28music%29) or beatboxing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatboxing). Another important factor of hip hop music is the fashion that originated along with the music.

I agree with you however that decent hip hop is quite different from what comes out from artist such as those you mentioned.

[-Bakkun-]

Bump. Y'all should listen to Common's Resurrection and Like Water For Chocolate if you never did.

[elektroniks]

Can I join

[jdama]

I would like to join. Hip hop is the greatest living culture on the planet. I make beats and am part of the growing hip hop scene here in Beirut.

Since this is an anime forum, I think y'all might be interested in this Japanese hip hop crew I discovered when I took a trip to Osaka last year: BUDDHA BRAND. They sound kinda like De La and the Beastie Boys combined with a whole lot of Japanese rare groove funkiness.

[spirit of the nine-tails]

You just ask to join and then your added onto the list of members!

Dunno. I liked Snoop's older ish. Sean Paul is Dancehall I think but his music is pretty good too.
