If you like good music yes. Since you are you though no.
lol what does this even mean haha. I love Emancipator, have all his albums. I just don't know how the show would be- I mean, his stuff isn't very danceable.
Isn't danceable? At his show, I couldn't STOP dancing. Did you miss my huge post about going to his show?
Hell YES it's worth going! If anything, it made me appreciate his music even more!

Fat Jon's new album made me revisit his first Maurice Galactica album and I remembered how amazing it is. Seriously think it's my favorite project of his. His highs on Champloo's Departure are much higher but Humanoid Erotica is a listen from front to back kind of album. One of the best intros ever and never goes down from there.

+1..it's funny cause i revisit Lightweight Heavy & Afterthought way more often, but i stumble across that one (usually blazed) and fall in love with again several times a year. it's got such a great feel to it.
ive enjoyed some time on the coast (got some cousins out that way) but tally...i mean it's a college town, right? it shouldn't be that lame, but it is, haha
bumping all week, ive been meaning to check out more of the quality stuff this dude's putting on my facebook feed now but i can't break away
I posted this on GAF-HOP a few weeks ago, but it feels appropriate for this thread:
Sam the Kid is a dope portuguese rapper/producer that has some instrumental albums. One of my favorite tracks is Viva!. They gave him the full discography of the best Portuguese traditional guitarist to play with (for a tribute album), and he made that track.
After a while he was touring using a live band. While recreating his instrumentals to do on the live shows, they started creating new things, so they decided to launch as a new project. They started "Orelha Negra" (which means "Black Ear"), an instrumental hip-hop band that uses sampling as the basis for their songs. He sometimes literally does an instrumental the traditional hip-hop way for the band to recreate it.
A few songs:
Throwback
A Cura
My favorite part of their concert: they're playing "SuperFreak"/"You can't touch this" and then in the middle of the song...
Awesome little Easter Egg (most people don't get the reference).

they flip the same sample the way Just Blaze did it on "Kingdom Come".

Modal Soul has always been my favorite. It and Metaphorical Music go together really well. Very much companion albums.
His work on Samurai Champloo as well.
Metaphorical Music, Hydeout Collections 1st Collection, Samurai Champloo's Departure, Modal Soul, Hydeout Collections 2nd Collection, Spiritual State
I guess I should have explained myself. Start with Metaphorical Music and work his way through that list.
Something that broke my heart a long time ago. (Nah)

Us Placers was such a god-tier song.
EDIT: heh didn't realize you posted it too, until it was too late. I saw both your names and just posted. CRS stands for Child Rebel Soldier btw

every single track
Depends on what mood I am, I prefer Fat Jon over Nujabes.
I thought about it for a while and it dawned upon me that Nujabes is Fat Jon's brighter half. I think that's why Departure worked so well. Nujabes has always been known for his beautiful, uplifting music so mixing his work with the darker, somber beats from Fat Jon and transitioning into it is perfect.

This is really good. Wow.
Saw Kid Koala live last night. If you have the opportunity to go see him and his stuff in person, TAKE IT. It was an absolutely amazing show.

I don't know if you guys remember Kitty Wong for that album OneofUs but she stopped making this kind of music music. I asked Senpai about it on YouTube. This is what he said
When the hell is the new Deltron coming out?

Sinitus sold some song they made together and they were supposed to be free. He didn't even attempt to pay her. That was the last I heard of her. She's a young girl with a amazing voice too.
April. He said so last night. EFI records has it locked up.

Damn that is a bummer.
I know bro. She was probably my favorite up and coming new artist. I believe this is the actually song that caused it too.
