My thoughts are going out to the our UK family. It is shocking to hear the UK police shooting someone. Here in Portland our police routinly shoot people for less, but I never heard of it happening in the UK. I sure hope they got their man, and not s…

But who's really hatting like that? I'll admit to having referred to a number of Rawkus 12"s as "crap," but I don't think that there's been a label in the history of hip-hop with more than three releases that I wouldn't make the same observation …

Blacks ar not "bending over backwards" because they had the please of not knowing about Rawkus because that shit was not marketed to them. I don't have the inside story of how Rawkus was marketed. But in my experience, lots of non-whites who did…

yeah, that's what I meant--night time mix shows on commercial radio. yeah but i mean the underground mix shows. like when stretch & bob were on hot 97 show for like 10 minutes or like bahamadias show in philly. i don't think flex was ever drop…

The way you try to claim "that much is agreed upon" reminds me of Vitamin's use of "UNDISPUTED". And lol at your claim of "street thugs... who got hyped when they saw the poster for soundbombing ii posted all over their respective towns" Were yo…

I'm not mimicking anyone's opinion you troll and again I haven't said ONE bad word about Rawkus. HOWEVER, unlike you I'm a lifetime fan of hip-hop and I refuse to sit by and watch you insist that certain records are vastly, ABSURDLY, more importan…

Unbelievable. Do you really think Rawkus ever cared or cares now whether or not you bought their records? You're not even their demographic. Johnny, I don't have any particular beef with you. But don't pretend you know my demographic, or for t…

Vitamin dude, you are a revisionist historian and someone who clearly knows nothing about hip-hop. As the new director of business affairs/A&R at Rawkus, I look forward to putting out as much music you will hate as possible. Stay clueless, Zv…

Actually Charlie Parker was revered by what became the core jazz audience, by the mainstream of jazz at the time which was big band music, he was either unknown or clowned. Your predecessors at downbeat panned his 78s for being unfocused and no suf…

Vitamin, I don't think anybody in this thread besides you is trying to claim that any of that sh!t is classic. Broad assertions like "But black on both sides is one of hip hop's top ten records and sound bombing is clearly the best mix tape ever c…

Breezy, How is Eminem's Anyman backpacker? Well, im not here to nitpick the album, but..... When the video for that was on TRL... oh wait I meant when that record peaked at # oh wait, what I mean to say is that it is on a backpacker collection…

Notice Faux, that half the classics that people recollected here from Rawkus are on this record--crosstown beef, 1999, mayor, when it rains it pours, patriotism, etc... I think the label changed the game and at its peak put out undisputed clas…

i stopped buying off ttl because the reviews are not reliable. used to spend $200+/month. tell me they have sound clips? ok. sorry but a 20 sec needle drop tells me even less than simons ruminations about his neighbors--however funny. They have s…

The reason a song is popular is usually because lots of people like it. I'm not a DJ, but if I was, I would take that as a cue. I'm tired of knowitall DJs trying to spin some shit I never heard. This isn't some college music appreciation seminar, i…

Great post dude. Definitely agree on the essential second story books. I'm always getting great stuff there. And I remember you telling me about when you got that Lyman Woodward at CD exchange. The problem with them though is that they are hot like …

1) The opening rhythm guitar riff from "The Stroke" by Billy Squier. 2) Dude's verse on Tupac's "Picture me rollin" that starts with "I've got Keys comin from overseas." 3) Shock's verse on Tupac's "I get around." "Tryin to make a dollar out of fi…

Off the wall. Jacksons Triumph and Destiny is up there with both of them though.

duet was "On my own" --- all required material, not to mention McDonald live with Loggins on the mellow "What a Fool Believes," and yes all the Steely Dan stuff but particularly making Aja sparkle like Irene Cara, and all the low key Doobie Bros. to…

Doobies and the Dan all day. = my idea of hell What if I sweeten the deal with some solo McDonald-- like "Sweet Freedom" from the Running Scared soundtrack? What say you then? And I'll raise you the whole keep forgetting record plus Yah Mo Be …

No beef taken. Islamofascist is not hate speech. If there was a world wide movement of devout and violent Jews who attacked innocent civilians and sought to change governments in "Jewish lands" to adhere to Halachic law and those Jewish states that …

Spliff, A bunch of Islamofascists just blew up a bus and three tube stations in downtown london. And you have to ask what war. Do you know what words mean? Islamofascist is a stupid word. But then you generally don't get much knowledge from RNC…
