Badass Rap

[CiG]

Spice-1 and X-Raided both have new albums out, tracks I've herd so far for both were pretty funky. Great to hear some old school west coast rappers making music that actually sounds like them, rather than a desperate attempt to do what the young guys are doing.

Some hip-hop leanings on the latest album from a local band here, mixing English and Chinese:

Familiar with Criminal Manne? He's one of my faves, mostly put out cassettes in the 90's before finally making studio albums in the early 00's but he's the shit.

Exactly what I'm looking for, thanks man! Really dig this track with Al Kapone.

You familiar with Blackout? Might be favorite tape out that scene

Love how fucking evil it sounds.

That production sounds like it was remixed from a fucking Italian horror film, this is killer. Definitely never heard of this guy before!

I used to have this song on repeat haha.

Anyone know what the song is that plays at the very beginning of this clip?

 

[CiG]

Oh damn I used to actually know this one.

 

[jimmy101]

Yeah it's driving me nuts & I don't have that app on my phone that identifies songs.

Sounds like a beast of a track.

On Youtube a bunch of people are trying to say it's KRS-One.

Edit: My mind keeps going back to it maybe being Scarface.

^ Never heard this album until earlier tonight. Had no idea that Eric B actually spat rhymes. This track sounds like a diss to someone.

Dunno if its just my speakers, or a poor quality upload, but this sounds overly bass-heavy. Mad rhymes though.

It's a bizarre mix, I was listening to my CD copy so I didn't check how the YT version sounded. Probably some bum that fucked with the audio when he uploaded it. That said, it's an album in dire need of a quality remix reissue, like Wu's debut.
