TBH, i like to think of the old school ones as kind of a TV series cause the character grows with it. Watch the Kitano film (2003) and see if you like it. It's different in tone from the older ones tho. Creepier, but i think you'll like that.
Other than that:
The Chess Master
Zatoichi's Cane Sword
Zatoichi and Yojimbo
nah you 0god breh (lol)
Enjoy my man. I think he's a fantastic live artist and a bunch of his new IYRTITL songs are probably bangers when played in front of a huge crowd

I've forgotten the new Raekwon album already.
Can't say I'm rushing to go back to it

Most producers aren't really producers: they're beat makers. They play no role in the creative process when it comes to advising artists, trying to get the best out of them, etc. I'll troll Diddy until the day I die but real talk: he was a true producer when it came to developing artists, teaching them how to perform in a studio, etc. Diddy is the reason Biggie went from a yelling battle/punchline rapper into a true artist. If not for that he'd be another Big L. Hell look at Meek. He doesn't have anyone to tell him to stop that yelling shit, he just gets beats in his email and spends hours in the studio with little to no guidance.
Think about the new wave of producers today. How many aren't just beat makers? How many could you compare to Just Blaze or No I.D. - not in terms of skill but as partners in the creative process, who push artists to be great.
watch em all!
also the Samurai Trilogy is real dope too, makes a nice companion piece, as does Lone Wolf and Cub
I also think he's one of the few that is pretty versatile with his beats. Probably my favorite mainstream producer atm.
I'm gonna backpeddle and say 'subdued'. Something that doesn't rely on the loudness and energy but the layering and atmosphere in the track. It's the reason why Barter 6 can be so boring at times.
I bought the Criterion box set recently. I'm up to film #17 and honestly, all of them have been worth watching for me, so I don't really have a great specific answer.
I would just start from the beginning. They're pretty much all around 70-90 minutes and move at a good pace. And it's fun to see Shintaro Katsu's performance evolve as the series goes on.
edit: also need to give props to Criterion for such a great box set. Immaculate transfers and packaging

Yeah your starting to see it with Rae Shummard and Two-9 which I heard were good tapes.
Can't believe Kanye is still making people angry. Is it really surprising or noteworthy he didn't flinch? He was probably confused why someone else was on his red carpet. Or was wondering why they were giving him a footstool before he got inside.
Bummer. Well I guess that's what happens when he shows so much love to Houston, dude seems pretty popular over there.
Not saying Drake is a must-see artist, but his concerts have a great vibe to it and he is a fun entertainer. If you get another chance, you should try to go.

Yeah Houston is like his second home he always had the love and respect out here it's just id figured they'd have tickets for a while before it sold out.
Finally giving the new Earl a go and I think it's a large large improvement over his previous effort. Comes with way more energy, better lines, etc. The production is a little all over the place style wise so i won't call it great. Give him someone to focus that vision a little, or maybe just time/maturity and he can fulfill the promise we all know he has.

did the OP even read his own article? lol
definitely agree with the production quip
that opening beat is great though
and kind of interesting how he opens all happy given the tone of the majority of the tape

I'm digging Earl but I have to be in a certain mood to listen.
It's too sunny for a song like Grief right now

i don't know exacly when camp newjack became souljahs but it was an important day in hip hop history
seriously, i wish that show was out here - if you can't dig something in that lineup, i don't really know why you fuck with the genre. also: be blazed
haha damn
..prolly fair but i gotta hear it first
down for this, really dug the low end mix (think that was mick boogie though?)
New video out
shit, i think i slept on the last jonwayne...when was that again?
seriously, some of ya'll got clout or pictures lowkey
great post, was just arguing this a while back with a friend too...didn't yeezy try this for a bit as well?
Oh shit. New Oddisse and hopefully Maco has another tape worth hearing in him.
Vic has a long way to go before he catches up to Chance. Chance has accomplished one of the hardest parts of the process: getting enough people to even know who the fuck you are. Chance toured with Em and had collabos with Bieber. He has unique enough of a voice and style that people won't forget either.
RIP SHMG
I'll wait for impressions. OG Maco has put out way too much trash for me to expect any more memorable songs from him.
tomorrow
WOAT homage if this is true.
He's been shaped by the trials of life.
That EP from last year was pretty damn great.

yeah, i thought it was nice, and outside of the rare instance of being drunk at a club i fucks with trap about as much as PD

Isn't Maco the guy who claimed South Koreans are racist for doing trap now? smh
trap in general has a lot of sonic aesthetic that I consider awful
but some stuff really comes together, like that EP
Yeah, bad look. To be slightly fair, that purple whatever song was like 90% U Guessed it. I can see the knee jerk reaction as a result.
