looking for good hip hop - Page 5

Rob Instigator · 10.03.2008, 04:49 PM

hip hop is the culture

rap is what you do over a beat

RAKIM is GOD

rhymes within rhymes, schemes that make your head spin, rhythm and flow, smooth...

I miss the days when RAP songs had no singing. i fucking HATE sing song choruses in rap, that is just POP with fucking spoken verses.

true RAP is straight RAPPIN over beats and music. I fucking cannot stand hearing goddamn church choirs singing bullshit taking up valuable rapping time, so the weaknut MC's can rhyme just three verses and make a 4 minute song out of it

have you seen the lyric sheets to chuck D's shit? to de la? to Biggie? mo-fucks rapped verse aftre verse after verse

batreleaser · 10.03.2008, 05:15 PM

yeah, rakim is arguably the best lyriicist of all time. i might put ghostface ahead of him for storytelling, and i might put chuck d ahead of him for sheer ferocity, and i might put the gza ahead of him for vocabulary, but for pure flow no one touches rakim. i actually saw him and ghostface do a show together once. best hip hop show ive ever seen, and ive seen a pretty good amount.

1. RE: RAP VS HIP HOP -- "rap" is a verb. "hip hop" is a culture, which includes its own form of music. "folk music" as we've previously addressed in another topic.2. suchfriendsaredangerous: I'm so glad somebody understands the genius of FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED. Everybody drools over Doc Oct, but I've always thought the Dr. Dooom record was a-fucking-mazing.

= favorite hip hop album ever

drrrtyboots · 10.04.2008, 10:04 AM

Bring da motherfuckin ruckus
Bring da motherfuckin ruckus
Bring da mother, bring da motherfuckin ruckus
Bring da motherfuckin ruckus

Ghostface, catch the blast of a hype verse
My glock bursts, leave in a hearse, I did worse
I come rough, tough like an elephant tusk
Ya head rush, fly like Egyptian musk
Aw shit, Wu-Tang Clan spark the wicks an'
However, I master the trick just like Nixon
Causin terror, quick damage ya whole era
Hardrocks is locked the fuck up, or found shot
P.L.O. style, hazardous, cause I wreck this dangerous
I blow sparks like Waco, Texas

I watch my back like I'm locked down, hardcore
Hittin sound, watch me act bugged, and tear it down
A literate type asshole, songs goin gold, no doubt
and you watch a corny nigga fold
Yeah, they fake and all that
Carryin gats but yo, my Clan
Rollin like forty Macs
Now ya act convinced, I guess it makes sense
Wu-Tang, yo sewwwwwwwww, represent
I wait for one to act up
Now I got him backed up
Gun to his neck now, react what?
And that's one in the chamber
Wu-Tang banger, 36 styles of danger

I rip it hardcore, like porno-flick bitches
I roll with groups of ghetto bastards with biscuits
Check it, my method on the microphone's bangin
Wu-Tang slang'll leave your headpiece hangin
Bust this, I'm kickin like Segall, Out for Justice
The roughness, yes, the rudeness, ruckus
Redrum, I verbally assault with the tongue
Murder one, my style shot ya knot like a stun-gun
I'm hectic, I wreck it with the quickness
Set it on the microphone, and competition get blown
By this nasty ass nigga with my nigga, the RZA
Charged like a bull and got pull like a trigga
So bad, stabbin up the pad with the vocab, crab
I scream on ya ass like your dad, bring it on...

Yo, I'm more rugged than slaveman boots
New recruits, I'm fuckin' up MC troops
I break loops, and trample shit, while I stomp!
A mudhole in that ass, cause I'm straight out the swamp
Creepin up on site, now it's Fright Night
My Wu-Tang slang is mad fuckin' dangerous
And more deadly than the stroke of an axe
Choppin through ya back *swish*
Givin bystanders heart-attacks
Niggas try to flip, tell me who is him
I blow up his fuckin prism
Make it a vicious act of terrorism
You wanna bring it, so fuck it
Come on and bring the ruckus
And I provoke niggaz to kick buckets
I'm wettin CREAM, I ain't wettin fame
Who sellin gain, I'm givin out a deadly game
It's not the Russian it's the Wu-Tang crushin
Roulette, slip up and get fucked like Suzette
Bring da fuckin ruckus...

racehorse · 10.04.2008, 10:23 AM

Def Jux: in general el-p, mr lif, aesop rock (!!!) etc.

I really like the grime scene in england, which is more ruff, more testosten, more old school, with futuristic sounds: dizzee rascal (especially his debut), wiley (the old stuff is wayyyyy better I think) and a bunch of other guys.

I hope this helped a bit, I havne tread the other posts before, so sorry for mentioning twice

I have mentioned him
"I phantom" from him is pure bliss, and the whole ep "emergency rations" is highly recommended
