NegativeCreep Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I have to say thanks to all the people posting UK based stuff here ... I am loving it and it is outside of my knowledge zone. Keep them coming, you have at least one appreciative lover in me At the moment I am loving the new Killer Mike LP - produced by El-P. So many great tracks, but this one can't be played loud enough and it has the great line: For the kids in the park, watching out for the Narcs Putting Sour Diesel in the air It's not the only weed reference ... there is another White Rhino reference too NC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shogun Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I have to say thanks to all the people posting UK based stuff here ... I am loving it and it is outside of my knowledge zone. Keep them coming, you have at least one appreciative lover in me +1 on that, my uk hip hop knowledge doesnt go past the early 90s britcore scene, blade, hijack, gunshot etc but i like what im hearing on here At the moment I am loving the new Killer Mike LP - produced by El-P. So many great tracks, but this one can't be played loud enough and it has the great line: For the kids in the park, watching out for the Narcs Putting Sour Diesel in the air It's not the only weed reference ... there is another White Rhino reference too NC also liking the killer mike album, i would usually avoid artists with names like killer mike and im not usually into dirty south type artists either but i bought it on the strength of it being produced by el-p and i have to say its a great album, couple of tracks im not too keen on but mostly its an excellent album, some of the tracks are very powerful, reagan comes to mind. i just picked up the newest aesop rock album which is along the same lines of killer mike and el-p, worth a listen too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shogun Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 23 years ago today ice cube released 'amerikkkas most wanted'. this is another album that i bought on its day of release and it never left my walkman for months, hip hop was in its prime when this album came out. a little history on amerikkkas most wanted. 1989, ice cube was still a member of nwa and was busy writing lyrics for the follow up to straight outta compton, cube wrote all his own lyrics as well as all the lyrics for easy-e and dr dre's verses (he even wrote the whole of eazy-e's solo album). he left nwa late 89 after a big fall out with eazy-e over money, he took his lyrics with him and rewrote them for a solo album. dr dre was meant to produce amerikkkas most wanted but eazy-e and nwa's record management put a stop to dre producing it. the bomb squad (public enemy / def jam records production team) stepped in and did the production work instead. amerikkkas most wanted is a fuckin good album and although in my opinion its a flawless early 90s pioneering gangster rap album i cant help but wonder what it would have sounded like if dr dre had had a hand in it, cube and dre were both at the top of thier game in 1989/90. and i wonder what it would have sounded like if these lyrics had been recorded by nwa for thier second album, damn that would be good to hear. none the less amerikkkas most wanted is a landmark album there are official videos from this album but i cant seem to find any 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
