    Great album, but can somebody explain the appeal of J*Davey?

    Also, wasn't there supposed to be a Baatin song, as well as a Raekwon one?

    sayin'! That groups sucks. And that girls voice has NO SACK (straight up blazing downtempo bullshit). I guess they got big because they're loosely affiliated with SA-RA and role in the hipster-esque L.A. scene.

    The album is cool. It just sounds like the label got a hold of a lot of Dilla beats and then put their own artists/folks they where down with on the LP. The beat that plays in the commercial is iiiiiiiiiil.

    you don't like rap music if you ain't feeling Blu.

    wrrd - Exile did some cuts on this too (they were done before Dilla passed away so I know not all of this is the label slapping random people over his beats).

    Truth Hurts?

  • Truth Hurts?


    A lot of those detroit dudes along with her are on Timotheus Management.

    don't test my expert industry knowledge.

    For some reason I thought this album was going to be some sort of foray into Japanese music. The Truth Hurts! This album is not looking good so far.

    I hope you're not one of the people who thought Donuts lacked an MC presence.

    no thank god that album didn't have a bunch of no name detroit dudes stumbling all over it

    i actually like jay dee on the mic though. the shinning tracks he rapped on where about the only parts of that album i could hang with, that song with the footsteps in the dark drums...
    "i paid for her like the mics in the source"

    I took a listen to some of the album so far, and there are some nice Dilla beats as usual, but that one line in the Truth Hurts track is killing me: "you don't gotta work about nothin, because like Gang Starr you got that mass appeal" . maybe the worst lyric ever?

    I think we're perfectly allowed to find "instrumental hip-hop" tasty jazztronic trip-hop a little too wallpaper. Frankly I like Dilla's average no-name cringeworthy lyricists.
