Janelle on Letterman, in 1080p even! There is not enough

It's like Prince finally realized his dream of becoming a woman, then woke up post-op and decided he really wanted to be James Brown. Pure charisma.

Statik Selecta and Termanology recording an EP in 24 hours live
http://www.2dopeboyz.com/2010/12/29/statik-selektah-termanology-recording-ep-live-stream/

Wow, I can't believe how disruptive the people watching them record are. Dude is in the booth trying to rap and someone tries to get in the camera's view and mean mug. Then while some weak singer is recording a hook, some dude tries to hand him a joint

Hearing someone say "she sucks!" would be a dagger in my heart. I'd be speechless.

Real talk: I don't think I can seriously be friends with someone who seriously thinks Janelle Monae sucks, especially a girl. I already have little patience for them.

My reaction to that would be to either turn it up as loud as possible or throw them out of my room. Janelle Monae haters and doubters are lucky that they haven't met me.

Sounds like someone revived 1995 era Prodigy and set him loose over the grimiest production of the year. There are some average tracks and the subject matter is limited, but damn when it's good it's amazing

i hate hate hate hate coke rap. it just strikes me as horrible juvenile power fantasies writ large; money cars women drugs drugs drugs, but this mix tape, while being ridiculous in nearly every way manages to contain enough skill behind the production and writing to provide at least an entertaining and well done example of the genre making this a very very very guilty pleasure.

I actually downloaded it a few months back and then deleted it like a week later without listening to it.

I'll give it a chance.

Rick Ross might have the best ear for beats in hip hop today. Definitely check out Teflon Don and Deeper Than Rap. DTR is kinda marred by some bad "for the ladies" tracks, but Teflon Don is pretty solid (outside of a horrible track with Diddy I haven't listened to since I got the album).

Rick Ross does coke rap so well because he has so little credibility. Once he was exposed as a CO it's like he decided "fuck that, I'm gonna do the most ridiculous coke rap album since the 90s." The fact that he survived that controversy is testament to his rapping and acting skills lmao

Personally I love coke rap, when done well. Ross understands what Raekwon, Ghost, and actual rappers with some "street cred" do so well: sure they have real life experience, but what seals the deal is the fantastical imagery, humor, and detail - not to mention good rhymes. To me coke rap is about telling a story, the more ridiculous the better. If the story is just "I'm so hard" ala 50 Cent I'll pass. But something like this..

listening a lot to Shining's Blackjazz lately. Shining is a break-off band from jaga jazzist that deals mostly with black metal/nu-jazz fusion. Blackjazz is the hardest of their three studio releases and it's pretty fucking hard.

It's on spotify if you have that, if not here are some youtube samples:

I swear Detroit has the best hip hop scene outside of Cali, from producers (Black Milk, Apollo Brown) to rappers (Elzhi)

Not that I'm aware of. I've always discovered stuff through blogs though. The cover of The Left's album caught my eye awhile ago on
http://bloggerhouse.net/

There's an onslaught of content there, easy to get lost heh. Sites like NahRight and 2dopeboys are good too imo. But Bloggerhouse seems to cover a lot of Detroit stuff among other things. Every now and then I search Apollo Brown or Black Milk on there. Waiting for Random Axe (Black Milk+Sean Price+Guilty Simpson) to come out
