i'm still not back.
can't believe its been a year since i posted about a forum move, i'm not promising it before detox, but i promise it won't take as long (that just bought me 10 more years :))
after doing up and trying to sell my g/f's house all last year we finally moved into our house just before xmas, shit was nuts as i had to move twice in december (i was living 50% time at my folks who decided to move 2 weeks before i got my own house)
my shits still in boxes - all my CDs, Vinyl, mag collections etc.. and i plan to catalog that shit, shed the crap and fill in the missing pieces.
at the new house i have the garage to myself, i've just done the main house loft out for storage - and i'm about to start converting the garage into my full-time man-lair.
this'll finally mean for the first time in 5 years i'll have all my computers etc set up nice and can take care of business..
in the meantime.. whats been going down? - whats new since this time last year? what should i be listening to?
-
Damn, haven't seen you here in ages lol. As for what's good to listen to, I don't know. I've just been listening to old shit mainly..
Kendrick Lamar's album "Section.80" is pretty good though, but I'm not sure if you'd be into him.

they really dropped the ball on danny boys release that would have been a dope ass album if it were properly mixed...i bet quik is mad as fuck about that shit...they literally put that shit out retail and it sounds no better then the old school makaveli tapes that used to circulate. i wonder if these fuckers really have the masters at all.

It depends on what you want. If you want backpack hip hop, you want to listen to Kendrick Lamar. If you want 90s/early 2000s sounding music, you need to listen to XL Middleton and Shade Sheist. French producers like DJ AK and Dogg Master make good beats too.

I enjoyed the Danny Boy and the Snoop Doggy Dogg releases a lot though, properly mixed/mastered or not.

I just wanna listen to stuff thats good.. I don't care who made it or what style it is.. although i do have a leaning towards funkier stuff
-
You should check out Snoop Dogg's and Wiz Khalifa's collabo album. Well, actually it's a soundtrack that they put for their movie. It had some smooth songs on it. Don't bother listenin' to Snoop's latest solo though.

Are you serious? Snoop's last solo album had some amazing songs on there... whereas that collabo album IMO sounds rushed. It's not nearly as good as Doggumentary.

Both of those albums had some good songs on them, but i thought Overseer might like the "High School" soundtrack better since he said "i do have a leaning towards funkier stuff". "Doggumentary" actually had a couple of smooth songs on it too though, but in my opinion it was really overrated and i didn't really like it except for a couple of songs.

Broth lynch hung
wc
strong arm steady
all dropped good albums in the last year
-
definitely check out the latest Murs album, Love & Rockets Vol. 1 8)
and obviously Quik's Book of David 8)
-
Damn seer its been a long ass time since ive seen you on the board... i guess your not dead after all lol
but i dont post nearly as much as i use to but i still lurk every once and a while and try to see what new hip hop comes about
right now my favorite rappers out the west that are new are
J.Stalin
Kendrick Lamar
and Hopsin
Nipsey had a good run of mixtapes but i havent heard anything new as of yet
I really enjoyed Snoops last album, a few generic songs but some good decent quality tracks too but the Wiz and Snoop soundtrack was doper
I wouldnt dare mention Lil B because i know you probably wont like him and will think its garbage but on a few songs he gots flowz like mutha fuckaz
-
to be honest, u didn't miss much...but good thing ur getting ur computer set up, my man, cuz this is the year L.A.M.B, X-Raided, & Klientel drop. 8)
-
albums by Kendrick Lamar and DJ Quik,, the best stuff from the west in a long time
:)
also check --->
Techniec/L's, Ill Camile, Terrace Martin ("4 luv suite" and "thoughts from.." EP), Quazedelic, Snoop/Wiz Khalifa duo album (better than "Doggumentary"), Soopafly latest album, Messy marv ("kokaine ballads" mixtape), Declaime album, Horseshoe Gang mixtape, and Kokanes latest album, last but not least, the E-40 albums (both of em).. Brotha Lynch Hung was quite dope too, alto disapointing if ur not into horrorcore
-
finished the marathon of listening i was going through, so i'm hitting up these albums..
got game's on right now.. its solid, but nothing really stands out.
seems nuts he's got all these dre interludes with only a feature on "drug test" which ain't that good... (i guess this has been mentioned a zillion times on here already)
tbh I think the problem is they're trying to hard to make every song sound "epic" - overuse of strings for one
best track > born in the trap
-
kendrick lamar > kinda nice chillin music.. the album is solid but nothing really grabs me, so no standout track
he really reminds of kanye west in places.. beats remind me of the common - go album
i'll check out 40 water next i think - i was a huge fan of My ghetto report card
-
kendrick lamar > kinda nice chillin music.. the album is solid but nothing really grabs me, so no standout track
i agree....
i don't remember u bein too fond of nor-cal rap, but dont forget to check out the latest brotha lynch
+ x-raided droppin this month. 8)
-
forgot about the soopafly, there's some real dope, funky stuff on there, namely 'countdown to cool' 8)
-
It's not westcoast but check out big krit. He's got three dope street albums. Krit wuz here, return of 4eva and 4eva and a day.
He's the best new artist to come out in a very long time. I'd suggest starting with krit wuz here.Produces all his own music and has the lyrics and content to put him above the rest.
