I've enjoyed both this and Best Friend. Maybe Best Friend was a slightly better feature from Em (always a winner when he goes the Proof route), and I'm still looking forward to hearing 'Love Story' at some point. I think it's going to be the album 'Radioactive' should have been. It's not on Spotify atm.

 

As for Speedom, I wish they had been in the studio together and had gone back and forth with each other. Given how long it's taken for Tech and Em to get on a track together since 'The Anthem', I wanted something a bit more special. Maybe my only big gripe here.

 

 

 

 

I'm really enjoying Love Story my only "complaint" is that I'm left wanting more with most of the songs. It's been on Spotify for me since this morning.

So this goes from being unrelated to this topic to being related.

 

In May I'm going to Maryland Deathfest which is a metal fest but at one of the venues on the first night I come to find out that Mobb Deep is playing of all groups..........I'm pretty psyched.

Nice, I've been waiting for that interview audio.

 

It's still not on Spotify for me. Must be a territory thing...But hey, that's a good recommendation you give for it though

 

 

@Scarface: I'd love to hear Shook Ones Part 2 performed live. First time I heard that song was on the LCS trailer. Man, that game's 10 years old now.

"Illuminati tryin' to read my mind with a eagle eye
And the haze got me thinkin', why
We killed Osama and plenty innocent people died

We should see the signs, but we Stevie blind"

 

"basically it was a time in my life, i thought i was going crazy..you know..and like.. i realised that I wasn't going crazy, it was the system that was built against me"

Hold the f*cking presses..

 

We just got new Slick Rick verses

 

This sh*t could have come straight from 1988. He hasn't lost a step.

Bishop Lamont was always underrated. (This song was from Midnight Club LA)

Twista

 

Got me delving into Twista's stuff. He's an artist whose albums I've never properly explored before.

 

Lets start with '97's 'Adrenaline Rush' because it's the earliest one on Spotify.

 

Ed: And almost immediately we got that G-Funk synth wailing in the instrumentals /instaboner

Trem is a top OZ rapper from the Lyrical Commission crew. These are two of my personal favourites from him.

A couple of choice Hip Hop tracks from north England.

You guys should really listen to all the Quik's Groove! There's 9 in total, one in each of his major release albums. They all have their own distinctive sound, so everyone has their favorites Mines would be #1, #4, #5, #6, #7. I just can't narrow it down to 3. DJ Quik is a great if not genius producer imo

DJ Quik is amazing. My top 5 for sure and favourite producer. Trumps Dre for me.
