Talib_Kweli-Ear_Drum-Advance-2007

[wcsoldier]

That's a good album... songs with UGK and KRS-ONE are dope 

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Pretty dope, definitely a return to form, although it does get a little samey at some points.

[Al Bundy]

Damn he just keeps getting his shit leaked early, doesn't he?  He needs to keep his records locked up or something.  I might check this...

For real. It must of been the mixing engineers who leaked it since it's a advance. Are the songs mastered?

The first 3 tracks are heat. I heard it while going to sleep, but I think this shit is gonna be sick.

What i meant with myt post was to show some knuckleheads here how these "smart" mc's/rappers like Talib Kweli, Lupe Fiasco, etc. etc. are hipocrit as fuck. Example, Talib Kweli is known for his "hate" towards white people, but at the same time he want the black community to get accepted, using reverse racism to preach anti-racism is just dumb as fuck. Same with that Lupe Fiasco dude, skateboarding and all. When Jim Jones creates a skatingteam it's not cool, but when Lupe Fiasco makes (wack) songs about how he rides on his skateboard (no homo) then it is "part of his image".

No hate intended, these are just examples of the top of my mind, ill look if i can come up with some more. I just don't like these backpacker mc's and especially the ones who are considered to be "smart".


I rather bump some UGK, Young Jeezy, Fresh Prince, Bone Thugs or Lil' Wyte music. Some examples of the shit i'm down with.


Again, no hate intened, but imo the likes of Talib Kweli just suck at music. Everyone is so "hyped" about how lyrical dudes like that are, fuck that.

Can you back that up, since that's what you base your theories around? I pretty much always thought Kweli (as well as Mos Def, Common, etc) was a positive rapper. He's no part of dead prez, Black Market Militia or anything likewise, revolutionary and violent...

Pretty much off topic . But guess what I bought Elevz .. "Can I Borrow A Dollar" and "Resurrection" on vinyl .. Gonna come with the mail before friday

Ha! That's classic right there, although I thought Can I Borrow A Dollar was corny - good looking on getting your collector game up!

Can I Borrow A Dollar isnt his best album, but i still like it.. It can be pretty hard to find on vinyl, but I got it for a nice prize..

Just another point for Xander; UGK are featured on Country Cousins.
