DSCF9265_ndv29q.jpg


why the fuck is there a Buster Sword here?
 
Yeah so Q-Tip is my favourite rapper and The Neptunes my favourite producers so the OTHERtone radio show with Pharrell and Q-Tip was everythingggg to me.

It's up on Connect on Apple Music.

They talked about the history of Tribe, the history of The Neptunes, first meetings, influences, etc and played some great music.
There was a Tribe mix, an old unreleased Tammy Lucas song from '96 when The Neptunes were still working with Teddy Riley, People's Instinctive Travels... 25th anniversary is coming up and Pharrell has a Bonita Applebum remix for it (the song that inspired him to produce in the first place), Tip played and talked about working with Jungle Brothers, Pharrell with Clipse and on and on.
They also played this new track:

Busta Rhymes - Master Race (Produced by Pharrell)
 
Just realised Meow the Jewels has PRINCE PAUL & DAN THE AUTOMATOR REMIXES ON IT!

Fuuuuuuuck, listening ASAP

EDIT: official release is tagged as (Price Paul Remix)
One of the true legendary producers and you can't even spell his name right smh

About to check out Meow the Jewels since it's been sitting on my desktop for a minute. I'm feating off of The Epic which shot itself to top five on my AOTY list.
 
Another snippet from the Q-Tip/Pharrell show...

The original version of Midnight by A Tribe Called Quest had verses from Ad-Rock and Pharrell on it!

You know, I actually like a lot of the production on A Better Tomorrow.....

Tendai one of members of Shabazz, is already an extremely competent producers and accomplish multi instrumentalist so the addition of Flying Lotus and Thundercat especially seems frivolous at best. Ishmael's somewhat methodical rhyming style works with sparse rather than maximal production in my humble opinion.

Skull Duggery- Hoodlum Fo’ Life

Hoodlum_fo_Life.jpg


Sighs….ok. Silkk finally released his long awaited debut album “The Shocker”. It’s time for another soldier from the No Limit camp to demonstrate their pure skills……meh. Skull Duggery released his debut album entitled “hoodlum Fo’ Life”. If you was bumping Down South Hustlers, you may have listened to a song by this fellow soldier called “Darkside”. If not, remember the commercial on Silkk’s first album where Master P gave you a snippet of a song by Skull Duggery? Yep…it’s time for this up and coming rapper to shine. However, this album is like a cloudy day with a blood moon that shows up for a few minutes.

There are some good moments on the album like “Sea Level”, “The Circle”, “Crooked Ass Cops”, and “My Hood”. Yet, there were plenty of duds on the album that made me doze off listening to them. Master P really needs to chill with the whole Quantity>>>Quality type of albums because it really shows on Hood Fo Life. The features consists of the No Limit camp and some random rappers that I guess were from his TSO group, but they still couldn’t keep me focus on listening to this album. At least one of my favorite groups out of the No Limit roster (Ghetto Commission) made their debut on the album, which was a huge plus for me.

Bottom line, it’s all on you if you want to check this album out. I’m nonchalant about reviewing this album and even recommending it because….it’s not that good. There are some highs, but a whole lot of lows because of the boring tracks, Skull’s meh delivery, and just an overall boring experience altogether. This album is like watching a low budget version of the movie “After Earth” with Kevin Hart as Will Smith and Steven Seagal as Jaden Smith. I’m going to leave it at that weird comparison.

Overall Score: 5.0

just got two records in the mail: Red & Mef's Blackout! and The Roots' Game Theory

gonna have a couple beers tonight and jam out

I seriously think that Game Theory was The Root's best album to this very date. They went hard throughout that whole album. I need to pick that up and Rising Up for my vinyl collection.

These no limit reviews are killing me. What a fucking waste of time. Absolutely hilarious.

Gotta spread the gospel some how some way, even though the recent review got me feeling like "I could be riding a bike" or some shit. At least Kane and Abel's debut album will be worth the review tonight.

yo this is really nice - is her album like this? damn


this is on deck, thanks as always des


the real story here is what tyga thinks people watching him fuck is worth


bout to plat bloodborne tho #noragrets


never get tired of this track right here

I hope Ra stops comparing him to legends. Let an artist be himself or herself. I see the same thing happening to Tink, ie Timbo constantly comparing her to Aaliyah. Come on...

yeah, it does no one any favors, really - rap game equivalent of COD KILLER

Right there with you, with an additional thought. RA is a 40+ (like a 49 year old woman, he doesn't want to be telling people his age) year old white dude. A) He probably needs to recognize that while he has a lane, he's really in no position to talk about what hip hop needs, or what constitutes passion for the art form and B) The fact that a 40+ year old white dude is feeling it is probably a good sign that the 17 year olds on the come up aren't going to be feeling the dude at all.

i can agree to an extent, but what about Ra puts him in "no position to talk about what constitutes passion for the art form"? i absolutely agree that we should reject the idea of saving hip hop or the next big thing coming out of a niche lane like this, but the man's got the resume to speak on the craft itself


surely this'll be a non-disappointing sequel album
surely

Why aren't there more Buster Swords there?

wenis askin the tough questions in life
i for one bemoan this shot not being in a field of swords on some ol' unlimited blade works shit
