For all you hip-hoppers, listen to this if you...

[DigDug]

...want to see what your tired "stars" should listen to if they want to breath life into the stagnancy of the current radoedits.

Prefuse 73 - Vocal Studies and Upright Narratives

 

[clamum]

Read the artist description on All Music Guide and he looks cool, thanks, I'll check it out

 

[PMChris]

I'm a hip hop fan and I think what today's rap stars need to listen to in order to re-energize the genre is a reading of "The Idiot's Guide to Suicide."

When Cannibal Ox, Atmosphere, and Aesop Rock rule MTV I will be ecstatic. But I'm not holding my breath.

No kidding. As soon as the learn to write a RHYME instead of the crap they are putting out...i'll stick with my "underground" (read: real) rap.

EDIT: oh..and I'll check out Prefuse 73 when i get home from work.

[waylman]

my fav hip hop of the year so far is the new murs. review

 

[StatisticianOG]

I like a lot of KRS-1 stuff. On most of his albums I like maybe 5 songs a whole lot, but don't really like the rest of them, or he has more 'filler' songs. But still with that said, I think he has more talent than the whole MTV and BET (and CMT ) kiddies.

 

[pyonir]

New Atmosphere CD should be out late september. Last date i saw was 23rd.

 

[unclebud]

"my fav hip hop of the year so far is the new murs"
"felt" is crazy! lemme look...

 

[unclebud]

i know "outtakes" is $9.99 at bb, cc might have it even cheaper
i'm trying to buy jaga jazzist "livingroom hush" with this borders coupon first though

 

[amcdonald]

I know its my silly prejudice, but when you guys are talking about underground hiphop all I can think about is the geek white guy from office space listening to scarface, and the indian guy breakdancing.

 

[BD231]

News flash, trends don't mean sh*t. Quit bitching and enjoy the music you enjoy listening to.

 

[TommyVercetti]

I will check it out, right thurrrr.

 

[Maleficus]
