What do you expect to gain by incessantly portraying yourself as Bill O'Reilly in regards to anything rap-related? It doesn't even come across as an act.

Buy the same 15 records over and over again....and then again in VG- 45 format.
You could also make a trip to a record store and spend a hour or more looking through thousands of records, which is fun sometimes???especially when you find good records for cheap???but can still be hit or miss. You could even join a message board for record collectors???at like, say, soul strut.com???and bluntly ask to be informed, but who knows if the information you are getting is the straight dope or an inside joke (it???s probably the former, but still).
I personally use all of the aforementioned methods of finding good records and information, but in recent years, as I???ve had less time to waste and more money to spend, what I???ve gravitated towards and found especially valuable in my never-ending search, are the websites popsike???which tracks ended eBay auctions???and HYP Records???which is a guide that rates and lists records by genre. I visit those two sites hundreds of times a day to find information about the ???value??? and 'musical quality' of records I might be interested in buying.
With this guide, I hope to create a singular resource that combines the essential functions of sites like popsike.com and HYP Records, and which can serve as a highly dependable buying guide for up-and-coming collectors. The information I provide is basic: a rating on the scale of 1 to 10, artist name, album title, record label, and the general amount I would pay to acquire the record on eBay or in a store.
It is my belief that a relatively small amount of information from a trusted source is all one needs to make a sensible decision on which records to add to their collection.
Feel free to print this list out, hang it on your wall, and start checking records off as you acquire them. But make sure to check back here from time to time, because I will make periodic and important updates to ???the list.??? Good luck!
So does he. This month.
why such bitterness?
The only Strutters' existences that matter to me are the ones who have records/music that I (might) like and/or want. Those with little hope of falling into this category are expendable/fodder.
You are not worthy of a response from Rey.
