Shit was the best track on Graduation, yet wasnt on Graduation officially. Shit was a great collabo and worked perfectly. I thought Graduation was just ok compared to College Dropout and Late Registration, but it is great compared to his recent output.

I'm not trying to start Yeezy cycle again but yeah, I think all three are great in their own way.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

The Glory is classic status for me. Still one of his all time best.

I KNOW, I LOOK BETTER IN REAL LIFE

 

[Recon]

I honestly really like everything but Barry Bonds and Drunk And Hot Girls. I really like Homecoming too.

 

[Acid08]

I honestly really like everything but Barry Bonds and Drunk And Hot Girls. I really like Homecoming too.

Pretty much. Flashing Lights has grown on me, wasn't a big fan for a while.

Barry Bonds is just absolutely horrible.

 

[T Dollarz]

I honestly really like everything but Barry Bonds and Drunk And Hot Girls. I really like Homecoming too.

Agreed. Both versions of Homecoming are nice.

 

[Complex Shadow]

Flashing lights hands down the best song on the album.

 

[T Dollarz]

Everything I Am is an underrated song. So chill.

 

[Acid08]

I really like Champion as well.

Tell me what it takes to be number one...

 

[victreeb3l]

I actually liked that one.

If you had to pick 1, favorite song on Graduation?

flashing lights easily. top 5 kanye beat IMO

drunk and hot girls is so damn funny too. "ahh rah rah rah rah thats how the fuck you sound, you drunk and hot girl" cracks me the fuck up every time i hear it

Blu & Exile - The Narrow Path

Oh lordy. Trying to tell my folks that flowin' ain't easy. Driving down this yellow brick road until it frees me. I need a pen, I need a pad, I need a place to go to get this shit lifted off of my soul.

YES.

Blu & Exile- The World Is (Below The Heavens)

I was trained to be a soldier for god
But as soon as I used my own thoughts I kinda got lost
In this smog called reality
Where hell is a fallacy and Heaven is a fantasy created by man
So don't believe in it
You came in here with nothing then your leaving with
Nothing so retreat from this
World of deceit
But my people it's time to rise
Realize there's a heaven whether you think it's inside or in the sky
Reach for it before it's gone eternally
And you stuck here below the heavens for eternity

 

[T Dollarz]

Fuck that's a great verse. There really isn't a bad song on here. A perfect album top to bottom in my eyes.

 

[CRS]

Anyone down for some turntable.fm?

 

[T Dollarz]

Never heard of it. *looks it up* Holy fuck, definitely.

 

[The M.O.B]

Anyone down for some turntable.fm?

I was hoping we could make this like a weekly thing, like once or twice a week we could get everybody in there.

EDIT: Maybe we could have Ace premier his mixes here before releasing on Gaf?

 

[CRS]

Never heard of it. *looks it up* Holy fuck, definitely.

[bakeray]

turntable is so fun.. been using it at work for a few months, has so much potential.

 

[T Dollarz]

Okay yeah we're doing this more often.

 

[PBY]

Digging this album:

 

[Esch]

gafhop turntable is stimulating the right corners of my brain

 

[IrishNinja]

for real, ya'll need to get on this
before ace finds it and wrecks our east coast shit, haha

 

[Gucci Messiah]

This thread is awesome! I had no idea there were fellow MC's on GAF...Any way I could get into the OP? I've got a soundcloud and have managed to get a couple of features on indie hip hop blog college-of-music. I also checked out the "Appalled" remix you guys did a year ago which was pretty dope, I'd love to spit a few bars with you guys if something like that happens again haha.

Well, here's my soundcloud if anyone wants to take a look: http://soundcloud.com/t-wally

Still new to rap, a lot of people don't realize how important timing and delivery is. Controlling your breathing is something I've also learned about through trial and error haha.

As for what I'm listening to now, Chiddy Band, Kid Slim, and Childish Gambino are constantly in rotation. I'm more into indie hip-hop, not really into most of the stuff you hear on the radio...

 

[Blackace]

before ace finds it and wrecks our east coast shit, haha

funny that you say because I am starting to work on a 92-00 old east coast mix...

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Was "Bittersweet" ft John Mayer officially on Graduation? That was probably my favorite song but I can't remember if it was included...if not I'd have to go with "Good Morning" or "I Wonder" So many good memories of this, I remember getting into arguments with friends over if Graduation would sell more copies than 50's crappy album haha.

Am I still the sole member of drunk and hot girl defense crew ?

[Acid08]

What the actual fuck is going on with that mixtape cover?

Well he's definitely not standing in a gym. Looks like his head is photoshopped onto his body and that hat is shopped onto his head.

 

[Blackace]

What the actual fuck is going on with that mixtape cover?

you weren't with him when he was shooting in the gym!

 

[The M.O.B]

Turntable.fm was such a good idea for tonight, hours of good shit.

We gotta do it again when people are less busy.

 

[Complex Shadow]

you weren't with him when he was shooting in the gym!

Fucking :lol. I don't know why I luaghed so hard at that.

 

[IrishNinja]
