So Earl Sweatshirt secured a RZA verse on his new album. Could be interesting if he produces it.

Classic as in good? probably
Classic as in people are going to remember it? probably not
It's pretty far behind A Piece of Strange imo
I kinda like Dirty Acres more too

I can agree with Recon on Onierology I think it's their best work after WRFF.
shiiit, and we even used to fuck with the mixtapes
Stars Shine is the best song on the overrated Oneirology, dont front
Nah imho it's their weakest effort(of the three I heard). Plus an album with Kno rapping? No shot.
Suuuure.

As someone who had never listened to CunningLynguists, Oneirology was great, but not a classic in the sense that Illmatic is a classic.
Nothing else is a classic in the sense the Illmatic is a classic.

Just listen to ace's Outkast mix. Takes ya back to the kast days..
I'm also asking alot for another Outkast album.
I've always wanted to like John Legend. I own Get Lifted and Evolver on CD. For some reason they just don't click for me. I've tried to like them repeatedly. Channel Orange is leagues better. I don't even know if leagues is a strong enough word. I'm a big R&B fan too. As far as mid 2000s R&B it's Lyfe >>>> Legend all day every day. Des' irrational hate for Channel Orange is irrational. Indie darlings seem to hate other indie darlings when they get popular, so it wasn't entirely shocking to see him get hated on by a few when he got popular. If Action Bronson get's popular and scores a 9+ on P4K he'll be the next victim of irrational indie darling hate.

I'm waiting for the weeknds debut, Orange didn't do much for me, Lost and Pyramids (first half) are great though.

Infinite is top 3 Em.
Infinite > The Eminem Show
Infinite > The Eminem Show
They have one, IMO. ATLiens is about as close to Illmatic, for me, as you can get, quality wise. God I love that album. That probably would make my top 5, bumping out 36 Chambers.
Infinite contains Em's best track, "Infinite".
Yep. I do however understand that some call Channel Orange boring. Most tapes recommended in the last few month give me epileptic fits so it's only natural that most of GAF doesn't seem to like a laid back smooth record like CO is. I however simply love 'boring' albums.
no standout tracks also means it's consistent. To some consistently boring, to me consistently brilliant.

Channel Orange has some great tracks. Pyramid could be a Stevie Wonder track
but ur wrong doe??
you don't like Monks?
forreal i listened through CD twice and the whole time i was just bored.
Ill give it a go through when my new headphones come today but overalll
It's not headphone music brah. It's living room music with big ass tower speakers. Drive slow Cadillac music with the windows down.
Only gripe I have is some songs seem to clip the red. I'm guessing it has to be intentional since the production is so lush, but it kinda irks me. Already waiting for a remaster. I know the interludes are all lo-fi and shit, and maybe that's why they let a little clipping by, but I don't dig it. I don't notice it unless I'm really listening hard, but it's there. Especially in the vocals.

i know your struggle
I didnt think I would have to worry about my projects save getting corrupted.... But yeah, it really sucks. Luckily I remember most of what I did, so it will be time consuming, but doable.

any impressions of domo genesis "no idols"?
worth a download?
worth a download?
1. Oneirology is one of the most refreshing albums I've ever listened to in hip hop. Off the top of my head I don't recall one instance of the words "weed", "bitch", "hoe", or any other "stupid" shit that peppers every other hip hop song in existence. It was just a nice friggin'
ride, man.
2. Swimming Pools video isn't bad. I'm glad that of all the TDE members, the creativity for the videos is going to Kendrick.
3. I'm warming up to The Stoned Immaculate. Showroom, No Squares, Chasin' Papers, Chandelier, Fast Cars Faster Women are all pretty damn good tracks.

I find Domo's rapping forgettable but there's some good production on it, The Daily news is the standout for me.any impressions of domo genesis "no idols"?

For real, it gave me that same feeling Motm1 did.
=O I don't think it's boring, but my initial hype excitement has died down a little bit. Some songs I really like, some I have no interest in hearing again.
Sure. Nice production, even if I'm not a huge fan of Domo.any impressions of domo genesis "no idols"?

Page 8 already? I missed an Eminem thread? Why is Kanye in that Kendrick video? I guess I shouldn't have slept in.
I'm a Blu fanboy, so YES!
But do you mean Blu mixtapes in general? He hasn't really put out any for a while. At least, I don't think he has, his release schedule and how he puts them out is so fuckin scattered.
If you're asking about his entire output, then I say definitely check out his older ones. Soul Amazing I, II, and III had lots of great stuff. And If You See The E Drop 'Em also had some good tracks.
I can't wait for the Flowers re-release next month. Should be dope.
Just anything in general. I'll be sure to check out the ones listed to get an idea of his music.
Edit: Actually, his albums as well. Anything that you would consider his best so I can really get an opinion of him.

Re: Domo
It wasn't until beginning my third listen that I realised Domo was actually on the tape.
It's been a minute since I've heard somebody be so irrelevant on their own shit.
I can't think of a single line of his that was in any way witty, clever or even memorable.
I remembered Bronson's 'Nintendo boss' line after one listen. I can't remember anything Domo spat across 11 tracks over two playthroughs.
Production's nice (hence the multiple listens it got from me) but nothing overly great.

Raekwon promising Only Built 4 Cuban Linx III before 2014
http://wudisciples.blogspot.ie/2012/08/raekwon-promises-only-built-for-cuban.html
Swallow that bullshit pride chef. We know you can do an album without RZA all over it.
Producing this entire album is exactly the kick in the ass RZA needs.
Black Mozart was the best track off Part II.

Oh okay. Be sure to track down a few of his albums, those are his best releases in my opinion. You might have already heard it, but his first album Below The Heavens is a classic. Also love HerFavoriteColo(u)r and Jesus.
