Trespass
Juice
Menace II Society
New Jack City
Dead Presidents
Colors
Crooklyn
New Jersey Drive

Shit, Set It Off is better than that POS IMO.

I'd add Fresh to that list as well such a great movie one of my favorite movies.
Common album is good at the half way mark where I stopped, although it sounds more like No ID featuring Common. Some of the beats sound like Yeezus rejects, but not meant in an overly derogatory way. Just not sure all of the beats fit Common's, suave lyricism. Features so far have been on point.
ik everyone here knows chance is a cornball, but being that I think I like him more overall than the average person I feel like bringing up how goddamn weird he's been about lollapalooza streaming his set. Dude's posted solely about it on social media for what feels like months now? And most of them are about how he's against the idea and will never do it again or something? what a weird fucking thing to get hung up on. Chance doesn't even put on a good show. Maybe that's why he's worried about the livestream, cause it could easily burst what's left of his hype bubble when everyone realizes he's terrible live. So sus to vocally care that much about something like this without backing it up with reasoning.

Can we also agree that Menace II Society is straight up garbage and it's ascension to cult film status is mind boggling?

Honestly, the only south central gangbanging in the early 90's movie I liked was Boyz N Tha Hood.
menace holds up way better than boyz in the hood.

EDIT: he's gonna have Lyor Cohen on soon. Should be awesome.

Meh, Boyz had a rapper not do a terrible job at acting. That's enough to put it above the movie script killer.

Both Boyz In Tha Hood and Menace II Society have aged poorly but in different ways. Boyz In That Hood is a good film but the musical score is so fucking cheesy; that sax just sounds horrible.
Personally I don't think Menace is a good movie. It feels like a rehash of Boyz In The Hood but edgier, with less of a message and far worse writing. Also the voice over narration is weak. That being said it has some great scenes but overall I just didn't like it.

He was great when I saw him open for Joey Badass. Then again that was over a year ago in a basement with only a couple hundred people.
I just had the scary thought that he might end up on Kanye's next album. Ye likes looking out for his Chicago people. Lupe on LR, Keef and King L on Yeezus.
btw Ander I'm digging the Julia Brown album you linked in the cassette thread a while ago. Not what I usually go for, but it's nice.

Menace has aged far worse than Boyz, it doesn't help that menace is the weaker of the two.
hah man Rock. this is alright though yeah.
Everyone else says he's good live so he must've just fucked us over. He played my school and I couldn't find anyone who had a good time. he was headlining a show with 2-3 artists and people were psyched for him. then he made everyone wait forever, barely rapped, didn't really seem to care for the crowd, and was out after about 25 minutes. And this was right in the wake of Acid rap, which had just caught on at my school over those past couple weeks. Everyone was amped for him and he was terrible.He was great when I saw him open for Joey Badass. Then again that was over a year ago in a basement with only a couple hundred people.

Yet even Nas has a host of post 1999 songs that are staples of his live set or work great live. Just off the top of my head.
-Got Yourself a Gun
-One Mic
-Get Down
-Made You Look
-I Can
-Hip Hop Is Dead
-Nasty
-Locomotive
-Bye Baby
-The Don
-Trust
I can't think of much of any Wu stuff off the top of my head that works live post 1999, even solo stuff outside of some stuff from Supreme Clientele and Be Easy by Ghost.
