Well... After the 15th song someone e-mails/sends you through iChat you realize that "Hmm...maybe there's something here!". LOL. One.

I have made a list of 12 emcees to check for in 2008 complete with download links and MySpace pages. Check it out here: http://poisonousparagraphs.blogspot.com/2008/02/dart-adams-presents-10-to-watch-in-08.html One.

Wow... Rest In Eternal Peace, Buddy Miles. One.

I wholeheartedly agree My review of it just went up and I was impressed to say the least: http://poisonousparagraphs.blogspot.com/ One.

Thanks all! I planned this blog for six months and it took me a full week to compose and in total eight hours just to post up text and image. I had to stop and put my right wrist in a cast due to overtyping. It ended up getting posted up all over the internet as well. I'm not doing another post...

You mean Sunfire? Sunfire was an X-man but he went back to Japan to be it's protector because he felt guilty for leaving. There have been a long list of Asian characters in American comic books (heroes and villains)...someone should do a list for Asians and start out with the racist depictions...

Here's the link to part one of my blog about this same subject: http://poisonousparagraphs.blogspot.com/2008/02/dart-adams-presents-black-like-me.html One.

Really? Tricky, Goldie, Massive Attack, Portishead, Roni Size, etc. were HUGE worldwide at one point and they changed the entire face of the music scene and had everyone following their lead. You couldn't find a publication that dealt with music that didn't do regular features on them and...

For real? Originally Posted by benjybars wiley is the most important british musician of the last 25 years. Even moreso than Tricky or Goldie? Seriously? One.

Nope! No, but Heavy D, Chubb Rock, B Fats and several other overweight rappers came out with superior skills and rhyming ability and they never rapped about being fat or food. The Fat Boys had gone to the well too many times and hearing them rap about being fat was tired. Plus they had...

However... That was just one of about 10 different factors that I used. Based on that one, influence, style, longevity and quality of discography they were moved up 12 spots from #52 to a tie at #40. One.

*Change* The Beastie Boys are in at #40. After some long deliberation and a full day of arguing with several other of my readers we went back and forth about why I left the Beasties off (#52) if the Top 50. I went back and checked some stuff and realized that while the Beastie Boys had been...

I wasn't. The only way I was comparing Lil' Wayne and Trina is because both of them are "relevant" to the Rap listening audience as of now. Trina comes out with a new single and people actually care. Jean Grae's new single leaks and no one bats a damn eyelash. It's the same with Wayne, if he...

I'm not that guy that thinks Hip Hop died back in 1997, I disagree with those cats that are stuck in the past and think that nothings been good since Company Flow broke up and Cannibal Ox's "Cold Vein" dropped. If you're just judging me by my posts on Dissensus since 2005 and have never read...

Nope! Sean "Diddy" Combs has never touched an ASR 10, EPS 16, SP 12/1200, MPC2000/3000 in his entire life. He turns knobs, suggests what songs to flip, etc. but he will NOT be on the Top 50 producers list. It's bad enough that I might not be able to keep Jermaine Dupri or Swizz Beatz out. One.

Here I am. Quote: Originally Posted by STN How long did the list take? And why are Black Moon below PRT (genuine questions, not rhetorical)? Without Poor Righteous Teachers ever coming out, there would NEVER have been a Black Moon (at least not the Black Moon we all know and love). PRT was...

Well... Without Poor Righteous Teachers ever coming out, there would NEVER have been a Black Moon. PRT was one of the first crews to infuse Reggae with 5% lessons and they often produced their own material (along with Tony D.). They also made some of the best albums of any Hip Hop era ("Holy...

I see what you're saying. I get what you mean, but since I'm part of this culture and I actually remember what it was like during the early lean years when the general public thought Hip Hop was a fad and that it would die out in a year or two back in 1979 and how the media lost their minds...

Sorta kinda... The "influence" part has to do with Hip Hop. There's this odd phenomena involving 2Pac where people that are Pac fans are obsessed with JUST HIM for some odd reason. Many Pac fans will only listen to Pac and buy all of his posthumous releases regardless of how crap they are...

Fat Boys and Kid N' Play Uhh...you guys are aware that GREATEST encompasses much more than just talent and/or skill, right? The Fat Boys were among the first major superstar groups in Hip Hop history and they helped bring Hip Hop to the masses. They sold Gold and Platinum in an era where most...
