  • I once heard about beans that are collected from some animals shit. Can't remember what it's called though. Had some when I went to stay with my dad in Indonesia, beans that have passed through the system of a campung cat. He didn't tell me till …
  • for real, after "little johnny", I stopped paying attention. Still, I always kinda saw El-P's beats on Funcrusher Plus as belonging to the whole dusty New York tradition rather than anything particularly 'innovative'. Maybe that's just me being wro…
  • Almost all of it looks really cheezy Lot of potential for sickness though...
  • The man is a great dead ball specialist and passer of the ball. His right position would be as a playmaker in the middle of the pitch This is true, except that I don't think Beckham has the 'brain' of a playmaker, so can't control the game to the ex…
  • Kinda sad to see a player who is only 31 and was the England captain a mere 6 months ago basically giving up on his career (no offense intended to USA soccer fans).
  • Any love for this?
  • a good insight on the banlieue situation and overall, it speaks for a generation imho.... I really like this film but it should be noted than Kassowitz has been accused of, ahem, carpetbagguery. If you want to see another modern French film which …

  • I really like 'Warning' - except it starts with the worst track on the album which is a bit of a downer. 'Over & Over' was what got me into checking it out, but the other singles have grown on me a lot, 'And I Was A Boy From School' kills it...

  • Not that I actually expect anyone to take this post seriously, but still... ^^ This is my favourite verse this year, mainly cos it's the first thing I heard by him, and he's been the only new emcee that I've really got excited about this year..…
  • I think, generally, the more languages you learn, the easier it becomes to learn a language - which might not be much help for a beginner, ha, but I think it's true. I'm half French so in theory I'm fluent in French and English, although my French …
  • Developing films shot with the LC-A is just like developing any other film, although a lot of people choose to cross process (develop slide film with colour negative film chemicals) which can be a bit tricky to get labs to do... I have a Supersampl…
  • I think he's a good song writer: Young Abdel Mahdi (Shahmay) was only 18 years old, He was the youngest of nine children, never spent a night away from home. And his mother held his photograph, opening the New York Times To see the killing has i…

  • I know a girl who picked that up last year. It looked really cool. I didn't know it was drag-and-drop though for mp3's, that's a great feature. So is the voice recording. Internal mic? Or do you have to plug one in? Does it have a line in? It lo…
  • I have one of these, and I'm very happy with it, but I never see them mentioned... It might be (physically) too big for some people, but it fits just fine in my jeans front pocket. 30 gb which is more than enough for most people. Can store ph…
  • sergio mendez and the new brazil 77, if there is a deal with it? I picked i up the other day. I just rember it from a soulstrut thread at some point? is it rare and why? You can deal with the lil dudes on this forum if you want, but I am Biz Markie…
  • I've got a little inch-long scar on the side of my stomach, from when I was *ahem* having my photo taken with a tiger (on my 10th birthday, when I lived in Jakarta). Tiger wasn't too happy, I was standing behind its head, it turned back to try and …
  • Although I can recognise the obvious regional bias and new-jackery of this statement, 'Masquerades and Silhouettes' is my favourite (hip hop) album, up there with Illmatic. To the point that I've started making 'homage' albums a couple of times, ha…
  • Don't really have anything to add, but I saw The Third Man on the big screen, at the NFT, for the first time last Thursday. So neccessary.
  • Cos lil dudes like to be looked at: www.flickr.com/photos/jxb128
  • After seeing Courtney Pine mentioned, I've gotta ask, what do people think of Soweto Kinch? Has anyone outside of the UK heard of him? He's kinda seen as the new Courtney Pine in the media when he's mentioned, a black guy mixing jazz with hip ho…
  • (expect Jay Demerit to be there with the glory Hornet boys next season).
  • I like the Rakes. Although they sound exactly like you would expect a group from the scene to sound. And they look exactly like you would expect a group from the scene to look. Thought the album stood up well though, and the new single, 'All Too …
  • Featurings? Well, it's always nice to get a nod from the originators, nahmean. Dizzy's not done too bad in the States has he? Which brings me onto point two, I'm as disconnected from the streets as could be, but Kano's probably the closest to bei…

  • (note: I have posted before, but not often, so by way of introduction - I am, erm, English (half anyway), and have been into hip hop since the golden age of, erm, 97) This post will no doubt end up convoluted and ineffectual, but here goes... Firs…

  • i would like to get somethin a lil more portable to make beats with. i honestly cant travel around with the humongous machine i use. This is a pretty portable machine - small enough to fit easily in any kind of bag/rucksack, and pretty light. I u…
