Lol. You got something like Gotta Eat is really fun and playful. Paris Tokyo has plenty of groove. Superstar was a huge hit for a reason.
I'm convinced there is something deeper to your Lupe Fiasco hate breh.
Hmmm...yeah Im gonna agree with that. At least his first two albums have a level of competency to them.

I tried over and over to get into it and nothing sticks. I hate all of the characters.
That being said I love Curb.

I've seen a couple of episodes and I thought they were pretty funny but I will say Curb Your Enthusiasm is the superior show.

1) Lupe has lost his damn mind. Again. For the 12th time this quarter.
2) If you can't connect to Seinfeld, you're not only dead inside, but I question whether you were ever alive in the first place.
3) Irish, I'm not a vinyl collector. I'm like a vinyl collector but for old ass computer games. Post the appropriate Coli face below.

That is actually the case with most conscious rap artists

And I don't get how yall can like curb and not Seinfeld, they go hand in hand tbh
Though as I got older I liked Elaine and George a lot more and seinfeld and Kramer less imo

I could be wrong obviously but I'm going to assume Nas hasn't worked with Q-Tip lately, which is a fucking shame. Dude is on fire and has a perfect knack for mixing "modern" and old school production together. Nas would sound perfect over his shit.
Honestly though...what is Tip doing? Initially it sounded like Kanye was going to be working a lot with him, then that seemed to die out. Sooo, what's he up to...

Last time I checked last year in a interview with Elliot Wilson he said he was working on The Last Zulu and Kanye's new album.

This whole poo storm reminded me that I hadn't listened to The Renaissance in some time. That album still feels as fresh as when it was released. Not an ounce of fat on it.

Shit is so perfect no song wasted great production let him take his time on Last Zulu.

Rewatched all of Seinfeld last summer, it's pretty amazing how relevant it still is. Elaine refusing to date someone pro-choice, Jerry being a casual racist toward Native Americans. A lot of episodes would still fit in just as well if they were released today.

yeah, disco kinda nailed it - no idea how you'd love one but not the other?
ah, that's cool too - who else was Des saying was a big vinyl head here? might gotta just bump the vinyl GAF thread or whatever
didnt ye shelf whatever he had for cruel summer? i kept hearing tip was doing beats for people that never came out.
as was said, Last Zulu and i too hope he takes as much time as he needs. related: now i gotta find out if renassance saw a vinyl release, loved that & the unreleased one

Seinfeld was amazing brehs.

I hope nobody in gaf hop catches the fade from Wale. lol
1. Scratches depend on a few things. How deep they are (they could easily just be scuffs and surface marks that won't degrade listening quality greatly, but could add a layer of fuzz or pops/jumps in a track. Then there are deeper scratches that can throw the needle off. Finding out how bad they are will help you out with that.
Never heard about alcohol based cleaning, but the usual method is a quick spin in distilled water and left to dry for a day. Then taking a micro fiber towel/rag and giving it a quick spin while gently holding the towel against the record. the other method for deeper cuts is wood glue, but that one you would want to test on a shitty record first and get good at it before trying it on something you treasure.
2. Tone arm repair could be done by someone familiar with the equipment or by your own self! depends on how confident you are in getting something like that done and how extensive the damage is to the equipment. Not knowing what kind of turntable it is repairs can run from $50 to at least $300. If you have to replace the entire arn instead there are venues that sell fully built tone arms and need to just be installed and balanced.
DJ tables are fine for just listening to records on. Just make sure it's balanced at the end of the day, can't have the needle digging into your records causing ever lasting damage!

yeah google image makes some of those look kinda like what i'm talking about - how do they hook into modern receivers, just regular AVs or what?
awesome weins, thanks for this man.
sounds like ill do the distilled water thing first and see how much that fixes on the better ones, so you just kinda submerge it real quick in say a small tub of said distilled water & let it air dry? ive definitely got microfiber cloths about too.
and yeah i think he said it's the whole arm, but that it's a good player otherwise. might just check this swap shop on the beach, i hear they might do repairs but good to know i'd just need to order said part & have it installed/balanced.
really can't wait; current setup is such booty. like if you plug in the nice headphones des recommended they sound great, but even if you plug in nice speakers they'll sound like shit.

I may have to go pick up a pack of brushes on my way home today.
as for using distilled water when I've done it in the past, I've made a tiny bucket, enough for the record to float in but not the label itself and spun it on a pencil or whatever can fit the hole so that the record is covered in water. laid it down on a towel (microfiber is a must, other towels will leave fabric and attract dust) and let it dry.
That's how I've done it. They do make cleaning kits that people swear by. depends on how much you want to invest.
