Hip Hop is a hobby of mine. I have tons of old track. The orphange, Odd-jobbs, alot of NY rappers and tons of battle tracks. Makes me kinda biast towards Pop chart MC's.
they battled? Yeah I have old track and Eyeda just kills it. He is by far one of the best "battle" MC's ever.
Also a so called "LOCAL"

yup benzino is a joke
immortal technique is overrated too. most people just hear that one song "dance with the devil" and think hes the greatest ever. i have a video of him battling jin and of course jin kills him. do you think you could use yousendit.com or something to send me the eyedea one?

He has talent. I've had that track for like 3 or 4yrs. I downloaded it under the Swisha House name and it was even chopped and screwed. Swisha house is known more for the Chopped and screwed scene than anything. Swisha House was big in the underground about 5 or 6 yrs ago. They kinda took over when Dj Screw died.

Mike Jones tracks are great if you into drinking Codeine as a extracuricular activity. Thats there main reason for the re-stating and slowed down tracks. The style was perfected by DJ Screw before his death. Funny cause it was the cause of his death...
Every part of the counrty has its own type or claim to hip hop. The southern style is sort of over. He would have been big had his album dropped 5yrs ago. Just that Undergound Indy music has taken lead, kind of contradicting.

yeah, i'm too old. Never heard of most of those people. I use to listen to Eazy-e and NWA and the original Beasties....Now i like johnny cash and big head todd.
sad i guessJeez, never picked brett to be an Eazy-E/NWA fan. Ever hear any of the bootlegged stuff from pre-nwa days like "World Class Wrecking Crew" I don't think Eazy was in WCWC, Dr Dre and Lonzo were in it for sure as was DJ Yella and Cli-N-Tel. Love the old school rap. Kinda funny to re-listen to Sugar Hill Gang's "Rappers Delight" and hear how much of it is still being sampled/referenced on albums today.

Gotta chime in about Eminem here. He is not the best rap artists of all time. He is one of the best (if not the best) rap entertainer that we have seen to date. I really like his older stuff, but when you have a label breathing down your neck (Aftermath) to make money and another label you're trying to get off the ground (Shady Records) you do what you gotta do to sell records. Great musicians often don't get the record sales numbers they deserve. Great entertainers do. It can be argued that nearly every artist who has "reached the top" has sold out at some point in their careers. But those that reached the top realized that this is what "The Game" is all about. Building your career and making a good living. I wouldn't be selling fire alarm systems if I wasn't making more money than I could selling car stereos. I sold out too. Why? I want to provide a good living for my family. I still dabble in car audio, but its not likely that I'll ever go full force into business again. Yeah, I do some stuff on the side, just so I don't get rusty really and it's nice to get a few extra $$$'s in the pocket.

Well, yeah. They did sample the track as it was originally done by Chic titled "Good Times". What I was getting at was they had the first hit as rap artists on the radio with that song. What I was getting at was the fact that a lot of Rap music can be traced back to that song.
