    Hip-Hop - breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Did you guys see the Atlanta local news report? "No guns or weapons were found, but there could have been. I just want to make that clear"

    "Cocaine Rap" Sasha Frere-Jones hilarious delusion

    Also I really wonder why the undisputed truth wants people to sing/rap/yell about things relevant to his apparently drug-free scantily clad woman-free life - you'd think he might want a little escapism

    "Cocaine Rap" Sasha Frere-Jones hilarious delusion

    While I think I mostly agree with you in this thread, you seem to have this strange fractured but absolutist coaine/hustling/drugs in hip hop apologist thing going on. One moment you're "they aren't saying coke dealing is a good thing" the next you're "it's okay if they say coke dealing is a...

    Kuduro Music

    look for it on soulseek. the industry for this is even less international than funk carioca and besides the radio canal angola site it's really the only place to find the random CDRs that pop up on the street. edit: this is, by far, my favorite puto prata track: puto prata featuring a bunch...

    the dark side of alt country

    I love Songs: Ohia. Top five: 1) Didn't it Rain (one of my favorite recordings ever) 2) Ghost Tropic (probably the "darkest" going along with the theme of this thread) 3) Axxess & Ace 4) MEC (really the only full band :country rock" I found compelling) 5) Pyramid Electric Co. (as Jason Molina)...

    (the inevitable dumb) BEST OF '06 (thread)

    Apologies for the typo, it's the type of the year (end of the semester) when I need word to check everything for me. A good example of what I was referring to is the (second) pitchfork list for the 1990s that basically superimposed (former) writer Rollie Pemberton's top albums - which tended...

    (the inevitable dumb) BEST OF '06 (thread)

    I mean, that's fair if you want to count it. I just knew a dude who thought it came out at the begining of this year who didn't realize it was recorded in the early 70s. Also, to the thread about burial. The nature of music criticism nowadays (thanks in part to the blogging community, message...

    (the inevitable dumb) BEST OF '06 (thread)

    If my post gave you that impression, I'm sorry. This has actually been of my favorite years for grind. If the tunnel vision mixtapes cut out the slowjams and the occasional hip hop beat and were mixed into one album it could easily be my favorite things of the year. A lot of the other discs...

    (the inevitable dumb) BEST OF '06 (thread)

    Joanna Newsom --- "Ys"

    yeah exactly. beyond that I just don't find her delivery or songwritting compelling in the least. josephine fosters retelling of that german folk tale is an example of a great, dramatic folk albums released this year too which doesn't have those problems. of course, to each their own
