    What is Hip Hop in its True form??

    of course everyone will have their own opinion. i personally dont have respect for someone just because they are getting play- i respect people based on what i know of their character. i can truly only respect the abilities of someone that i do not know..... and i dont respect the ability of...

    What is Hip Hop in its True form??

    yes!!! thank you, inrcitymusic (or however its spelled!) this is a thread everyone shoul elaborate on. here are my thought: First off, the "elements" are still alive, well, and kicking. i have been a b-boy and a writer, and currently an mc and producer. allthough the four elements of...

    gayest down south rappers of all time!!!

    um, no, your wrong capkom. the REASON i am listening to more older music now is BECAUSE of the way it is now. EVERYTIME i buty something new it SUCKS. PERIOD. Little Brother was the exeption. REASON NUMBER 2: i am a producer; my time is better spent listening to either things i can sample, or...

    Best beat East West South

    lets get off sugar hills nuts, ok? they had ONE song that was worth anything, they BIT caz's rhyme.... they are the most overhyped, overated of anyone in any musical genre, EVER!!!! and whats so great about next episode? did dre even make it? i mean , considering that half of what he does has a...

    Just Blaze or Kanye West

    the beef i got here is that anyone who makes a track like that now is going to be called a biter, and kanye and just will be the guys that people will give the credit to. i personally think the sound is nice and gives hip hop a much needed injection of soul; but its like now, when i finally got...

    Shittiest Rap Song On Radio

    i have absolutely ZERO musical background... some of us werent able to obtain it, and so we pick things up and figure it out for ourselves. i dont need a musical background to manipulate a sample; i could build a decent career on just sampling. that doenst mean i dont have talent, that means...

    gayest down south rappers of all time!!!

    scarface is grossly overated. and why is it that a person who slangs dope gets respect for "keepin it real"? i dont care HOW good you are- i dont respect anyone who helps keep the communities that they profess to be "giving back to" by glorifying the very thing that is destroying it. on any coast.

    Shittiest Rap Song On Radio

    yeah but thats reasonable doubt. thats not the blueprint; Jay-z is the blashemous biter from hell in my book. he jacks and jacks and jacks- blatantly, i might add- so often that it becomes difficult to praise his rare triumphs from his failures. so, take "girls, girls, girls" for example. he...

    Common & The Roots... Your Thoughts

    yeaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. how do we do that? Encore happens to be my partner, just so you know. you know, like batman (myself) and robin(encore). lol... just messin encore. its just a friendly rivalry there, thats all. he made a beat with a very good sample, and i felt that he could have...

    circa 1994, greatest year in hip hop?

    94....94...9.4...94...94...94...................................where have you gone? the golden age has past us, long since forgotten. will there be a revival? if so, who will be the gifted young soul to lead the way? could this person be among us now, today? even-gasp!- here at ILLMUZIK...

    Common & The Roots... Your Thoughts

    um.. you need to catch up on your reading. THEY SAID IT WAS MADE AS A RADIO SINGLE. encore... got a question. why dont we learn how to post beats, and then we will each remake our beats for that sample, and let them decide???

    gayest down south rappers of all time!!!

    hmmmm.... as far as artists that i like currently? not many.... Rjd2 was a breath of fresh air. i liked "Get By" by Kweli..... i pretty much just listen to older music..... a lot of soul. i got smokey robinson in my tape deck.... a lot of soft rock stuff.... i am a chrisian so i do listen to...

    what do you think of RJD2?????

    hey encore, its DEADRINGER, NOT DEADSLINGER!!!!! LOL! anyhow, shadow is nowhere near as skilled as RJ... just because shadow came first, that doesnt make him better. RJ is much more colorful and vivid than shadow; there is much substance to the hype. the words "psuedo-abstract" are much better...

    Common & The Roots... Your Thoughts

    it had nothing to do with it being a love song. "Brown Skin" lady was a love song; "the light" was nice as hell (Pharoahes song called "the light" was just as good.) i dont care what it was about- it was a radio song if i ever heard one, right down to the beat, the hook, the verse, (bad misses/...

    Bombs over Baghdad

    of course i know full well the things that our "great" leaders have done. we have the absolute greatest platform for such underhanded tactics; as the saying goes, absolute power corrupts absolutely. anyone here object to my saying that the U.S has the clostest thing to Global absolute power than...

    what do you think of RJD2?????

    he is indeed the best sampler out... shadow cant touch him in my view. actually, there arent many who can, skill wise. he is an enourmous blessing to the underground; he is the rare artist whose MUSIC trancends genres and becomes it's own entity. no on the general radar posses his creative...

    E-mu e-synth keys

    would people PLEASE quit with this whole "if you are a REAL hip hop producer, you HAVE to use an mpc and a turntable..." buisness. thats the biggest load of B.S ever. the use of the turntable itself was out of ingenuity and neccesity; "hip hop" defines itself, not what you USE to make it. thats...
