Don't think he's supposed to be in the same house as all these women but Mystikal's new (first?) joint with Cash Money is pretty good: http://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/video.php?v=wshhkZEhA88m1pq0561s

http://www.2dopeboyz.com/2012/03/12/jay-zs-amex-sync-show-live-stream/ So Jay-Z's SXSW show is streaming right now, it started at 8 EST so I'm not sure how much time is left. Apparently it's going to be available on xbox live and youtube next week as well. LARRY JEW fucked around with this message at 01:55 on Mar 13, 2012 |

Haven't seen any talk about the new Rittz mixtape or the video that leaked along with it, "Die": http://youtu.be/h5zcCmWClds The video is a Dexter-style kill-video aimed towards his haters

Honestly, I would even include the Ghost Dog OST when talking about RZA as well. There were some good songs on that despite the low quality of RZA's acting

I prefer the "freestyle raps" in the park: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pf2FFirkYXU&feature=related http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wu-Tang_Clan_affiliates Honestly don't remember some of these, like Hillside Scramblers, Population Click or Zu Ninjaz. This did remind me of a couple more recent Wu affiliate albums I liked though: Bronze Nazareth - The Great Migration Cilvaringz - I [some of the production on this album was outstanding: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yyq2W9uGxUY] Shabazz the Disciple - The Book of Shabazz (Hidden Scrollz) [this was okay, but really, the Sunz of Man albums were way better] Hell Razah - Razah's Ladder I was also reminded that Hell Razah had a brain aneurysm a couple years ago and goes by Heaven Razah now.

savinhill posted:Another good Wu-affiliated album that I don't think has been mentioned yet is Cappadonna's the Pillage. For some reason I've heard a lot of cats not liking this. I thought it was pretty tight but then everyone started saying how Cappa's rhymes didn't make sense. I don't know, I thought it was alright though. For the guy checking out the Wu stuff have you checked out Bootcamp Click? If not Check out: Black Moon - Enta Da Stage Smif-N-Wessun - Dah Shinin Heltah Skeltah - Nocturnal OGC - Da Storm Sean Price - Monkey Barz; Jesus Price Superstar I've always those guys were super dope. The Beatminerz beats were great and the rappers in those groups can rhyme for days.

Trust me when I say that Wu-Tang Forever is a good place to stop with Wu fandom. I know you might see yourself as a fan and love their stuff but the later solo or group stuff is very spotty. Ghostface is the exception.

I guess if rapper are going to brag about doing immoral things like robbing, pimping and drug dealing somebody had to eventually jump to comparing themselves to genocidal dictators. Some of the Odd Future dudes do it a bunch too.

I'm a big fan of The W, even if it's not their best it's still a solid album. And Careful (Click Click) is one of my favourite Wu joints. 8 Diagrams had a few good songs but I can't say I've gone back to it too often. That old ODB track ended up being one of my favourites from the album. But yeah, besides Ghostface, I'd say OB4CL2 is the only recent Wu stuff really worth checking out. I'm excited as hell for Liquid Swords 2 though. Also, new Danny Brown vid out. I haven't stopped listening to XXX since it came out. http://youtu.be/QSX4vkHENLk

8 Diagrams is pretty good only for how weird and controversal it is. Its like "What if Wu Tang made an OutKast album?" Even Rza had to back away from it. I needed it after ODB passed. It was cathartic.

Because that album had a really unique sound mostly because Sabzi started to transition from sample based beats to more original compositions. I could rattle off a bunch of groups that have a similar mentality/message as the Blue Scholars, but I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for. Common Market, if you dont already know, is RA Scion and Sabzi, so you're bound to notice some similarities.

If you want some really old poo poo with a Wu-90's vibe.... check out the Soul in the Hole soundtrack. The artists are like a mid-late 90's all star line-up. I'll always hear that Tekitha Soooooooul in Da Hoooooole chorus in my head. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7d6SvbvSQw

Some of the Odd Future dudes do it a bunch too. Bookoo rappers did this poo poo in the 90's, thinking specifically of a 2pac track where he starts off by going like "my alias Makaveli" but then every rapper on the track after that being like "yo my alias mussolini" "my nickname kadaffi" can't remember the name of the track right now though. Also that CNN song (http://youtu.be/7kZFh5HEQGc). Maybe it ties into all the camo dudes were wearing back then or just referencing poo poo that was on the news as always

His tape from last year had a swastika on the cover. I forget what song he says he has a swastika tattoo, but its on Bogato Rich, along with calling himself adolf or hitler a few other times.

I'll check them out though, thanks. I mostly meant the production. Message and mentality is kind of a second thought for me though I do find I enjoy the "backpacker" stuff more than others, but I think that is more just the production and overall sound to me.
