Damn! That's an ill find. That's a wall of fame in one box. That would be my house art for real.

First multi-page post I've read in a long time...and it only took me one misfire before remembering my password. Still passionate about music, but don't buy much vinyl anymore. Still buy a few things here and there. Never was a big contributor here,…

I'm interested in this. let me think about some trades and get back to you. LPs or 45s?

Illmatic. What's the rap version of rockist, since it can't be rapist?

I saw a screening last night. Jeffrey Wright makes the movie. He's one of my favorite actors, and he definitely carries this one. Adrien Brody is decent, as is Columbus Short as Little Walter. I didn't think Beyonce was bad. My problem was she …

I loved Tamarind Tree. Haven't been to the other Vietnamese spot, but TT was some of the best I've ever had. And Ron REagan jr was there, so it had to be official. Palace Kitchen is a classic and still really good...Tom Douglas is like the Mario …

Mmmmmm. Can't resist it. It made me eat pork again. A product I'm very proud to publish...

Brecht, Rilke, Hesse, Adorno, Wolf, Bachman, Celan, Nowitzki, Beckenbauer, Jelenik, Holderlin, Nietzsche, Wagner, Grosz, just trying to redeem myself

woops. I've been to kafka's home in prague so I should have known better... and I was confusing mozart with beethoven whose birthhouse I've been to in Bonn they sound german...

Kafka UNEDUCATED, MozArt UNEDUCATED, Einstein, Kant, Hegel, Marx, Brahms, Fassbinder, Grass, and Til Schweiger This is fun

RIP, first off. One of the reasons people talk about his abuse is that in his case the woman he beat and terrorized actually has a voice. If his victim had been a nameless or faceless or less talented woman, if she hadn't written the book, hadn't …

I'm drinking this right now except 2006 I like Owen Roe wines in general, especially the Yakima Valley Red. I've been drinking a bunch of Washington wines like Cadence, Betz, Andrew Will, etc. They're generally more affordable and delicious. I'…

Jay-Z-No Hook Jay-Z-Roc Boys Jay-Z-Sweet and then I got to work

Sounds more like a deal of universal trying to stick it to itunes, rather than any real artistic integrity issue, even though that's how it's being spun. I wonder if it will hurt Jay's sales, though. How embarrassing if he loses wk 1 sales to Chris…

No one thinks that this is an ACT and that the unintelligible lyrics are part of it. The band follows the "drunken" slowdowns. She hits the lyrics on the choruses. As such, I think the performance works, in that it's in character.

I'm still trying to get past the fact that you just compared Spears and Hill. I will say this much: Hill was young when success came to her (not to mention all her babies) and in that respect, she had to shoulder a lot of pressures at an age where…

Two words: Phife Dog I love tribe, but they were just too imbalanced. Groups like Outkast, EPMD, Run DMC, Wu, de la, Mobb Deep actually had members who would both/all shine. I'm ok with a stupid Phife lyric, but he was just so overshadowed by tip.

This is the dumbest, and most predictable, excuse. Watching the game last night, I KNEW we'd be hearing about this. Ok- it affected both teams. All pitchers. All hitters. So no excuses. Tell your 30 Million dollar MVP to get a hit, and don't bitch…

I'm about 2/3 of the way through and it's so incredibly moving. It's a tough read, or maybe I'm just reading slowly to savor every word. I don't want it to be over.

I've never done coke and don't really have an interest. I probably took the "might smoke a spliff but won't sniff" line too much to heart, but I made a pact with myself not to put anything up my nose. I've done most other drugs that you can eat or…

I heard he shot the kid in the ass or something, but then apologized a lot and the guy didn't press charges.

I can't contribute to this thread at all except to say that I almost never go back to records I didn't like at the time. I need not to have ever heard the record and just passed on it because I was closeminded or just not cool enough if there's any…

None of that really makes sense, does it? Sounds like stir-fried rumor
-
Might be the worst week in world sports too with the tour de France scandal, the bombings after the Iraq soccer victory... The British open was good, though
-
ok, I just wrote out a long post, but it erased somehow. Anyway, the short version is I loved the van gogh exhibit at neue. Give me van gogh, schiele, Klimt, kirschner, etc any day. Also thought the serra at moma was incredible. His work elicits suc…

I think a lot of people forget that there was a war going on, and that's why a lot of NY folk didn't listen to pac or west coast music in general in the early 90s. I certainly didn't. As much a love Penicillin On Wax and how It jump started shit,I…

And finally, the rap album I've listened to most is probably either Illmatic, A Future Without A Past, or any number of Jay-Z albums.

Just to add, I know my mentality was provincial, but I was a teen, and that came with the territory.
