  • there were interesting bits o-dub posted, stats about the drug trade in american cities and all that.
  • CLIPSE Hell Hath No Fury (Star Trak) "Momma I'm Sorry" "Wamp Wamp" Hip-Hop is supposed to be uncompromising. Raw. Furious even. All anger and adrenaline and getting out all the feeling the real world has no room for. The brothers behind Clipse …
  • Odub your as bad as a street corner hustler making that crack money REUP - hit up rolling stone, apparently they're covering this shit now.
  • i've read venkatesh's first book on the history of the robert taylor's, although its a little dry/academic its still an interesting story.
  • There's a good new Pitbull song called "Come See Me" with the chorus "I don't mess with that smack, I don't mess with that coke, i don't mess with that crack, not me no more, wanna holler at a Latin broad come see me, and if you trying to get that m…
  • famous in Virginia for being crack dealers famous in Virginia for being crack dealers famous in Virginia for being crack dealers famous in Virginia for being crack dealers
  • However - and really, this is where this whole debate stems from - my point is what there's been a shift over the last five years or so that has made rhyming about crack (whether you want to call it crack rap or not) even more popular than it has …
  • So when did the crack rap fad start if not 2002? Results 1 - 10 of about 26,000 from www.pitchforkmedia.com for clipse. (0.29 seconds)
  • my 2 cents: jeezy and clipse are selling, in part, due to an image that has nothing to do with how well they can rap. there are plenty of rappers who sell millions without ever voicing any real opinions because everyone (i'm sure) would agree tha…
  • Drescan still rap
  • Yeah, in NY it's nothing but white rappers and dudes that were signed to a major label a decade ago and then released half a dozen albums independently chronicling their ass-hurt over having been dropped. haha. chicago is mostly west coast gangsta d…

  • A STEADY DIET OF COKE LET STAY ON TOPIC PLEEZ. Seriously, even Jim Derogatis, the dude who Kelefa ripped in his 'Rockism' article and whose favorite rappers are like cherrywine and kanye and PM Dawn and who's railed against gangsta/drug/crack rap…
  • Harvey I dont get why you get all personal about shit like this. Odub should and can write about whatever he wants. Yr making good points but they're hidden behind this absurd xenophobic/possesive YOU DONT GET TO TALK ABOUT THAT bullshit edite: :5…

  • To put it from a different angle, even if you were to accept that crack rap has pretty much been "same as it ever's been" I would therefore have to conclude that people would accept the idea that the main difference has been that some critical mass …

  • Related to Odub's post its important to remember that just because numbers have fallen doesn't mean the culture still isn't there; in most chicago neighborhoods, for example, the murder rate (largely drug-related) is way down; in three chicago distr…
  • I wonder if you can think of a rapper who created such a comprehensive persona in the rap game as T.I. did on trap muzik - addressing so many aspects, self-analytical, internal conflict, issues of family, love, the day-to-day details (keeping-your-h…
  • from a TVT press release emailed today: "Twisted Black - the father of cocaine rap" Haha TVT knows what they're doing when it comes to critics. "Crunk Hits Vol. 2" owes its NPR-life to TVT's relentless critical push
  • Who will save Philly's Most Wanted, the REAL Neptunes-helmed godfathers of crack rap??? Seriously tho, "Cross the Border" is straight
  • Agreed w/ harveycanal; and further, I'm curious as to why The Fix and Lord Willin' get so much credit for 'the crack revival' even if such a thing were to exist? edite: oof my post now irrelevent
  • I prefer Pap teaches the alphabet
  • I had a blast at rock the bells in chicago
  • yeah hood politics 4 is pretty good
  • I still need to hear this I listened to Ray Cash again recently, its good but in a 'promising' way. He really likes T.I., sometimes too much, and aside from "Payback" and "Bumpin My Music" I only remember a couple of tracks. One of them was about ho…
  • He's so corny I can't bear to hear him rap any more. His recent beats are alright. I like the one on the Game album. Late Registration is kind of unlistenable to me.
  • lol @ Monie Love vs. Jeezy take that shit to wax "You tell them cats in brixton i said wassup" "Hip-hop is dead!"
  • Also competing for best new artist are the R&B upstart Chris Brown ... not a good look at all he and mary took home the most awards at the billboard show. i don't understand what is appealling about the guy. what were your thoughts on B2K?
