From the Lox - Recognise:

“too hard for MTV, not black enough for BET.”

I like the line flow-wise, but what does Jadakiss mean by this (maybe I don't know enough about BET)?

really? I like it, but compared to (insert any one of 20ish Preemo beats here) it seems relatively undiverting.

i love piano loops, don't get me wrong, and they work brilliantly in hip-hop mostly. guess it's a personal thing, as so often.

Anyone know of records that sample non-obvious classical piano stuff (ie not Beethoven's 5th)? Was thinking of Chopin, Bartok etc. Would've thought someone must have, given the ease of sampling them etc.

That's the essence of hip hop. That. Right there.

They got Slick Rick. We got Gabrielle (not that I dislike her, mind, but. And obv he's British-born, but hell.)

 

[crackerjack]

They got Slick Rick.

And MF Doom, which is why we never get to see him live either. No fair.

 

[Sick Boy]

Aside from that one guy who likes to put that forced voice on, Camp Lo are brilliant.

 

[luka]

given that they're a duo thats a pretty big minus
