Group Listening Party Fun Time II: Craner vs. Craner

[woops]

I'm on Jan Hammer now. This is his only great track from one of the few truly great episodes of Miami Vice, a dark piece of neo-noir.

come off it, crockett's theme is a masterpiece of arrangement

This album was five mics in Source. This guy was like a less talented, more psychotic Killah Priest.

This is a compliment, kind of. They hooked up on KP's second album View from Masada for the single 'What Part of the Game is That?' which was shit, sadly.

This is genius, though. I like the horror noir vibe of Miami, psychopathic Cubans and expensive yachts.

"...like unprotected sex with Oprah!"

This Big L track for the crisp Showbiz drums and the amazing cameos from everybody involved, an inspired session.

that Sunz of Man song demonstrated how primitive KPs lyrics were at this time

 

[...]

The first Big L album is incredible. This isn't the best track but it's pure adrenalin and bad NYC vibes.

It demonstrated his versatility, ability to inhabit roles. His debut, made at the same time, showed his ability in full force.

Jay-Z used to rap like this with the little flurries and dashes

 

[...]

Black Moon. Epochal hook. The BM chorus in full effect. Compact, contained, lush, hateful.

 

[...]

This was another hook that got in your head from listening to Westwood in 94/95.

Cam'ron before horse and carraige reinvented him

 

[woops]

predates that divide really.

 

[...]

In the Spotify list there is an extra song by Roxanne Shante which Barty excised from the Youtube list so I guess we'll skip it. Shame, my second favorite female rapper after Foxy.

Where are we?

[...]

Where are we?
