I don't seem to be up on the current state of hip-hop like I used to. I've only got two albums so far this year, Cunninlynguists and Ghostface Killah, and a quarter of a year has already passed. This that Murs album out yet? Have I missed anything else?
Actually, just name all the albums you've got this year so far.
-
I haven't bought any album yet that came out this year. So far 2006 is crap.
-
atmosphere - you cant imagine how much fun we're having
opgezwolle - eigen wereld
arctic monkeys - whatever they say i am, i am not.
-
2006 is trash. That's why there's still albums from 05 selling good.

I guess I haven't miss much and it's just a slow first quarter.

It's crazy for me to think about how many CD's I used to purchase per year compared to how many I purchase today. Its not even close.
-

1st quarter is always slow.
Right now, I'm mostly just waiting for Mobb Deep, Outkast, Busta, and maybe Too $hort to drop.

I didn't even know it was out. Thats the dude from dead prez right?
-
Aceyalone and RJD2 - Magnificient City
theres a new cunninlynguists out? what is it called?
-
This is the most annoying 1st quarter since.......... 4EVER. Outside the Killah album, pushs back dominate the year so far :grumpy: :sign_werd:
-

Cunninlynguists - A Piece Of Strange

oh i thought that one was from 2005?
or wait.. it leaked in dec. and got released in jan... thats why ;D
well then theres 2 dope releases this year so far
-
2006 looks pretty good on the horizon for me. New Chili Peppers (double album), new Pearl Jam, new Springsteen, new Velevet Revolver, and Jack White's new band The Raconteurs will all have albums coming out between April and May.

The glass is half empy, huh Sic?
Just playin'. But the first quarter is always slow with releases, in music, movies, video games... You name it. It picks up in the spring, summer is blockbuster time, then it slows down again, then picks up towards Thanksgiving and Christmas. That's just how it is.
There's usually only a few good releases per year nowadays anyway. Busta should come with a decent album, and so should Game.
-
when's cube's new album gonna drop?
-
Wait, wait, wait... Personally, I've been thinking 2006 has been excellent so far, compared to other years.
Army of the Pharaos - The Torture Papers
this is straight HEAT, I know for a fact you will like this Knuckles. I remember you recommending the Chief Kamachi & The Juju Mob album to everyone last year... Well, this is just that and more. Same dudes, larger clique (Apathy, Celph Titled and them joined in)... At times lacking a little depth, but it really is good hiphop.
Ghostface - Fishscale
What can I say... This has to be one of Ghost's best albums.
Murs & 9th Wonder - Murray's revenge
Decent, to say the least. Replay value isn't all that, but it's a nice album.
Aceyalone & RJD2 - Magnificent city
Somewhat disappointing but still not bad.
I have yet to check out the new Cunning & Dilated albums though...
-
Forgot about it in the previous post - Tha Liks new record came out this year. That shit was decent.

I haven't heard any leaks, just rumoured songs. It's supposedly their hardest rocking album and Frusciante plays bigger role, which is great because judging by his 6 solo albums released in 6 months last year he has a lot to offer. It's a double album with a rumoured 3 discas a bonus disc. Originally the Peppers were going to release 3 albums each 6 months apart but decided to take either the first 2 and make a double or the best tracks of all three and shorten it to 2. Either way the songs left out of this project may show up as a bonus. Their last album was By The Way and it was amazing. It came out in the summer of 2002. Unfortunately thanks to poor promotion and odd choices for videos it didn't sell all that well, given the quality of the music. It went platinum after a month and then seemed to disappear. Not sure why.
As for White's new band; I've heard the single and the B side for the upcoming from The Raconteurs. They are nice songs but didn't blow me away but grow with each listen, however I feel they were more of a tease and still expect great things from the album. It's Jack White on guitar and vocals with Brendan Bensen (indie rock guy) on guitar and vocals as well and they co-wrote each song belding both styles (from what I've heard). Alongside them are Patrick Keeler and Jack Lawrence; bassist and drummer from The Greenhornes (great indie rock band). Hopefully it'll help both Bensen and The Greenhornes in the public eye and make Jack White bigger but who knows. The album is called Broken Boy Soldiers and is out on May 15th or 16th.
(Here's the website. It's certainly different, but good)

March 21, baby!
Besides, I didn't think the new Alkaholiks album was all that nice. It was better than X.O Experience, but what does that tell you? Not much.

I doon't mind By The Way as it's a throw back to some earlier Pepper stuff but the beginning starts you off as Californication style song and throws a lot of people off. I liked just about every song on that album.
I'll put together some Dion stuff that you might like and send it your way. Either later today or tomorrow. I got a box set a while back that spans his entire career and I recently remembered you asked about one of his songs once.
-
I think the best album of 2006 so far is bizzy bones "thugs revenge" Every track is tight
-
i heard on kday, an anouncement from warehouse music that if you buy the album (murs) from them you also get tickets too hang out with him at the knitting factory
-
yeah man this year still has promise, some great albums could turn this year around.
-
i bought life on the line from trife da god and ghost, this shit bang
-
^^^ That Trife and Ghost came out last year.
I just got a hold of The Torture Papers and Murray's Revenge, gonna give them a listen tomorrow.
-
I'll tell you a very good album that nobody mentioned is The Product - One Hunnid. Scarface is 100% behind this album, and is a great hip hop record from front to back. Willie Hen and Young Malice hold their own, and Face needs no explanation. Dope album.
-
Bubba Sparxxx - The charm
Bubba went 100% pop on this one, but judging this from the right perspective it's not even that bad. Just nothing I would personally get into.
2.5/5
dead prez presents: M-1 - Confidential
Where the fuck has all the revolutionary talk gone? It seems dpz are running out of subject matter. Half of this album is filled with sellout tracks, the other half is a watered down version of what made dpz big in the first place. Really disappointing.
2.8/5 coming from a dpz fan.
Dilated Peoples - 20/20
Just your average Dilated album. Too monotonous to play front to back and still not even that bad musically. Just a little boring, but you know what DP's full length albums are like these days.
3/5
Little Brother - The commercial free EP
Recycled material from The Minstrel Show combined some random skits and a rare new song. Too long to be called an EP (I've seen shorter LP's) and not enough new material to add up. I bet this was only meant for promo anyway. Not really a challenging effort.
2.5/5

I'll be waiting on Ice Cube, Outkast, and hopefully Snoop and Dre will drop their records this year
-

So it came out in 2005 but it's 2006. Okay...nice logic. ::)
-
Only picked up Dilla - Donuts so far this year, should be getting better though, we got Ghostface, Gnarls Barkley, Raekwon and The Roots dropping pretty soon, plus I'm sure there are more I'm forgetting about.
-
J Dilla - donuts
Murs - murrays revenge
Atmosphere - you cant imagine how much fun were having
Ghostface - Fishscale
Dilated Peoples - 20/20
Cunninglynguists - A Peice of Strange

-

-
Ghostface and T.I. albums r 1st on my list when i can afford them.
Next will be Mobb Deep, Busta Rhymes and Rhymefest
i hope 2 c releases from:

Stat Quo
Game
Lil Flip
Lil Jon
Obie Trice
Ludacris
Game
I'm still tryin 2 buy Chamillionare and Bun B's albums from last year but i'm so short on money.
I thought 2005 was a shite year 4 rap. 2004 was the best year for rap since the 1999-2001 era. 1994 was pretty dope 2.
-
This Year will be heat... if atleast the half of these albums will drop :'(
The Game
Ice Cube
Lil' Eazy-E
Alchemist/Evidence Lp :D
Dr. Dre :'(
WC
