Rap/Hip Hop

Mh, as rap i like a lot La famiglia and Caparezza.The latter one has moved to a more rock oriented genre.
 
You'll have to forgive me here and roll your eyes but I cant again because NOW I just had my computer rebooted and have no player installed and am technology challenged. Should be getting it straightened out by Monday night. Im going from decades old memory and will have to go to youtube myself and sort through to find examples. The albums were my friends, I never owned them or any Zappa. And remember Im only talking spoken (rapped out) rhyme not the musical style that I made clear from the beginning

Ok.

Sorry but I though we were cool when you busted my balls about always trying to give Hendrix credit for everything, I thought it was funny anyhow. I will also find link for Wait till tomorrow its one of my favorites for its sense of humor, and his smooth vocal delivery, that character he had and quirky DR Suess style rhyme... perhaps you already know it or checked it out ? Its even a bit funky R&B style

Yeah we're cool, I'm just busting your balls again. I just youtubed Wait Until Tomorrow, I can sort of see what you mean but it's a large stretch to say he was a pioneer or original rapper.

Thats what I was figureing but initially there was more seperation or difference am I right ? With hip hop being far more musical (instrument wise) than early rap which was primarily just drum beat and "rapin" ? Perhaps depended on the artist, Im just going from memory of what I was exposed to along time ago. I did always love that break dancing, very talented/athletic. Like I said I like the groove but am so tired of the rap, it literally all sound the same to me, I can hear those that do it better but its still the same formula, over and over and over. I imagine rock sounds all the same to those into rap and for the most part it is, same as the blues, country, pop, solidly defined metal sub genres... fair enough

I think initially there was less separation, it used to get called "rap music" a lot and not so much now. It's become more clearly defined as time has gone on.

I put my Axis CD in yesterday too and I agree about the stretch but am at least glad you sort of see what I was talking about because when I relistened to it I figured no way would anyone understand what I was talking about.
 
There are lots of hip hop music out there razor that doesn't sound the same.Try the Wu-Thug Clean.

:lol:.....seriously though Wu-Tang Clan is bad fucking ass. Also Enjoy MF Doom, Immortal Technique, Playa Fly, Nas, some Eminem, some Fugees, Mos Def, and some more that I can't think of right now.
 
:lol: Ahahah that's gold, I can't believe I never spotted that. Maybe because I generally skim Mr Brady's posts.
 
like I said alls the same, in less than 30 seconds he used my pals multiple times, word up and yo yo... and Im supposed to keep listening... yo ? Yo after that I could really care less what the "story" is... word up my pals

I can respect that people like it but damned if I can figure out why
 
Who cares about that? This is real underground rap with a purpose, none of that bullshit for the money and that is enough for me to respect him.



Love new Jadakiss also.

Stakes is High and De La Soul is Dead are their best two albums imo. I can't find many of the songs straight off the albums on youtube, maybe the record company have taken them down or something..

apparently we are going to be helping a friend of our other guitar player with some back up music for some rap. Not sure how its going to go yet because I havent heard anything, we have too many projects in the works but Im sure a few songs will come from it. Imagine that, maybe we'll come up with something abit different... I sure hope so.
 
E 1999 Eternal has been on repeat for the past week..I will never get bored of this goddamn album!
