[brkbt junglegrl]

i dont give a fuck wut ppl think about eminem....hes fuckin producing Pac tracks...it can get no betta! tha mans got talent

[teknostate6]

sum real hip hop
twice the first time lyrics by saul williams
(sung)
i will not rhyme on tracks
niggas on a chain gang used to do that (Huh!) way back

i will not rhyme over tracks
niggas on a chain gang used to do that (Huh!) way back

don't drop the beat on me
don't drop the beat no
ah

i am not the son of sha klak klak
i am before that
i am before
i am before before before death is eternity after death is eternity
there is no death there's only eternity
and i be riding on the wings of eternity like
CLA CLA CLA SHA KLACK KLACK
GET ME THE FUCK OFF THIS TRACK

as if the heart beat wasn't enough
they got us using drum machines now
the hums of the machines
tryin to make our drums humdrums
tryin to ???? our magic
insturments be political prisioners up inside computers
as if the heart were not enough
as if the heart were not enough

and as heart beats bring percussions
fallen trees bring reprocussions
citys play upon our souls like broken drums
redrum the essence of creation from city slums
but city slums mute our drums and our drums become humdrums
cuz city slums have never been where our drums are from
just the place where our daughters and sons become
offbeat heartbeats
slaves to city streets
and hearts get broken and heartbeats stop
broken heartbeats become breakbeats for niggas to rhyme on top, but..

i won't rhyme on top no tracks
niggas on a chain gang used to do that (Huh) way back

i won't rhyme over tracks
niggas on a chain gang used to do that (Huh) way back

don't drop the beat no
don't drop the beat noooo

not untill you've listen to Rakim on a rocky mountain top
have you heard hip hop
extract the urban element which created it
and let a open wide country side illustrate it
riding in a freight train
in the freezing rain
listening to Coltrane
my reality went insane
and i think i saw Jesus
he was playing hopscotch with Betty Carter
who was cursing him out
in a scat-like gibberish for not saying 'butterfingers'
and my fingers run through grains of sand
like seeds of time
the pains of man
the frames of mind
which built these frames
which is the structure of my urban superstructure
the trains and planes can corrupt and obstruct your planes of thought
so you that forget how to walk through the woods
which ain't good cuz you ain't never walked through the trees
listenin' to nobody beats the biz and you ain't never heard hip hop

and you must stop that damn track from going...
please don't drop the beat
don't drop the beat nooo

and...

i will not rhyme on tracks
niggas on a chain gang used to that (huh) way back
(repeat)

don't drop the beat noooo

don't drop the beat no
don't drop the beat no
don't drop the beat
...heartbeat
my heartbeat
goes on
and on
and on...

yeah

[teknostate6]

emeniem doesnt keep it real at all. his main audience is rich white suburban kids who wanna be bad ass, ive got a call to make ill be back to ramble

[teknostate6]

id love to see emienem battle saul he would be vaporized!

[brkbt junglegrl]

like OMG ur so right.....cuz i am definently gonna take hip hop advice and recommendations from an f-in kandi kid. Personally to each is own...but i think Eminem has talent ..not only as a rapper but also as a producer.

Yeah his audience may be primarily rich white kids....but it doesnt matter what color u are..its all about seein the passion someone has within. His rhymes are on point...and he comes correct. But heh...if i was tryin to be "cool"...id say i didnt like him either jusbcus he is mainstream and mainstream is so not in. Ill admit it..i like him...now whats up!

[teknostate6]

jeeze u get pissy quick kid. yea i am a kandi kid but thats not the only aspect of my life. i did spend 2 years (the better part of my adult hood ) being homeless an learning the game, i got alot of life experince from lot an hitchhiking, and being down in asheville NC ( like tha hippie mecca for the east coast ). i also write and do slams and try to be consciness of the world around me and whats really going on. i go to the ghettos of west bmore more than id care to admit an seeing shit down there, an having gone through the legal system myself, an seeing all the kids stuck on the street an stuck in the life doesnt make me wanna promote drugs or recklessness or selfish self induglence or homophobia. i think rhymes should be consciness and for a purpose. eminem is just a corprate toy like britney spears or nsync. he is on teen pop magazine covers and mtv and all the award shows. he doenst give 2 fux about you , or the kids in the ghetto, or on the street , or really struggling to survive. he doesnt care about spreading awarness to inspire people to overcome babylon and fight the system. he only perpecuates violence and hatred and ignorance, people like him do nothing to help in the legalization of drugs he makes shit hot he toatly doesnt care about the spritual, therpatuic , or medical uses for the shit hes always rapping about. also im tired of hearing about his childhood cause its not ne worse than ne other kids i know, im tired of rich white suburban teenie boppers who dont know 2 shits about hip hop, and cant write , and cant flow blasting his shit all the time thinking their hard. i flow alot almost everyday and i get down on sum crazy slams an do open mics from time to time. im really sick of people assuming shit just cause im into kandi.

[cokeAcola]

that hurts my eyes to even read. spacing is your friend.

[teknostate6]

lastes rhymes from teknostate

got to bring it back with tha real hip hop
cant stop
cause the tanks dont stop
an the banks dont stop
an the bombs still drop
jehova
on my knees i pray that your kingdom is near
life all alone and ive found no asylum here
cause these city streets i walk seem more like tha trail of tears
remincent of alshwitz
and here i sit
and here i stand
amungst the damned
father give me strength for i am only a man
father give me strength for i am only a man

amist this dying planet
i
stumble faintly toxic
and i am conformed plastic
and i am dying silent
and with no resistance
how long have i been living this half hearted chemical exsitence
cause the struggles everyday kid no hope in the distance
its just pop another pill and
fake another smile
i have wandered for miles and miles
but fuck it
the first world is headed for diaster
i have no master
an me theyll never capture
come back to hit babylon harder than the rapture
send out an sos
another million slaughtered for progress by ss
its time to drop outta this suciety
i keep faith in prophecy
my soul is no commodity
is this your manifest destiny
first world hypocracy
third world poverty
nothing for miles i see.......
i see dimensions deeper
rebirth comes an so does the reaper
i clinq to jehova like i was
the last
beleiver

[teknostate6]

wanna rhyme kid than throw down

[teknostate6]

nobody ever reads shit i write or takes me serious half the time they just say i dont use spaces

[teknostate6]

spaces......... happy ?

[teknostate6]

:wtf: jungle girl besides i thought you were a trustafarian... oops i mean rastafarian, do rastas like eminem ?? so yea miss mellow moods maybe u outta practice like 1/5 of what u preach or what your trying to represent an you wouldnt be a toatl close minded little kid. i guess im not feeling plurry today. if u are a rasta look at how eminem portrays smoking herb for instance, if your down with it as a spirtual sacrament than wouldnt u consider emeinem to be commiting blashphamey?

[brkbt junglegrl]

just shut up...im too tired and too old to argue with u anymore.

[teknostate6]

yea your right its nothing personal i jus really dislike corprate "hip hop" , but if your really into it than i shouldnt judge u for it. my bad.

[koolaidluva]

FIGHT THE POWER!! haha

Yes Yes..Jill Scott is bomb, which cd do u have BK, i want her live in dc soooo bad!!!
i love the roots, i think one of my favorite songs by them is Step into the Relm
D.Planets, ALL around the world same song!!!
De La Soul
Arrested Development- EVERYDAY PEOPLE!!!
werd to Zach De La Rocha.....:yum: haha
Werd Rhonda Em is aiight, i like alot of his earlier stuff, im not feeling his later stuff though

and PUBLIC ENEMY!!
DMX , ill always have love for him< hes a preacher now> but yo has always been mad spiritual i give him props!!

Im slippin im fallin i cant get up, Ive been though mad different phases, like mazes......

BONE- BIZZZYS IN THE HOUSE!!! hahah i love how that girl sings that < keisha?>

GOOD choices everybody!!!:raveon:

Has anybody heard Exibit- The Foundation???

[The Logic Theorist]

I personally think "Low End Theory" is the greatest hip hop album of all time.

As far as particular tracks that haven't already been listed:

Aesop Rock - Daylight
Roots - Never do what they do

and there's a Quanum Collective track I think called "the Golden Rule" that is ill, although I had just borrowed the cd for a while so I'm not positive that's the one.

*edit* add Del the Funky Homosapien's "Stress the World"

[koolaidluva]

werd logic...The Low End Theory was a milestone!!!,m tru greatness!!!

have u seen the book. I SHOT YA??? it pictures early hip hop culture...PHAT!!!!, Kool Herc, Bambatta...theres some really good pics...DOORKNOCKER EARINGS!!!

[The Logic Theorist]

Haha I have not seen that.. but as far as old skool goes..

Cold Crush Brothers
Early LL Cool J
Slick Rick
Leaders of the New School (how ironic is that)
and you already mentioned Public Enemy. I remember being like 12 and 13 years old listening to Public Enemy. Pretty funny for a suburban white kid huh?

[discoball]

A few of my favorite street poets...

Mos Def
Talib Kweli
Dilated Peoples
Basically Everything on Soundbombing 1 & 2 Albums
Rakim
Nas
The Roots
Erykah Badu
Jill Scott

I know there's more...but I gotta head out to class

[goddesskia]

Koolaid, you KNOW I'm down with some Tribe. Classic hit SCENARIO put Busta Rhymes in the limelight and paved the way for some hot hits for him...

I also like early Nas (not that FIRM shit), Ras Kass (SICK lyrical skills), Lil' Kim (please don't flame me...BIG wrote most of her lyrics back in the day), Talib and Mos...Brown Skinned Lady is alovely classic in my book. I do like Xzibit, Snoop, and J5. Also, Black Eyed Peas (their first album was NICE)...

And I am also on the Eminem love train. He is a good lyricist (even though he needs to get some new material...sick of hearing about his poor white trash mom and baby momma drama lifestyle). If he was underground, folks would be loving him, don't front. And he is a good producer (learned from Master Dre!), I agree with Brkbt...

The Roots were better before they got all commercial...Black Thought is amazing on the mic...

Gil Scott Heron is the one true poet though...most influential...

[badkitty3804]

Eyedea and Abilities, the album "First Born" is HOT.

[blewmymindblank]

Can't beleve no one has mentioned Del the Funky Homosapian/Deltron...he's got the sickest lyrics

:edit: just noticed that Koolaid had De La Soul in there, still like Del by himself though

[badkitty3804]

ohhhhhhhh De la Soul!

Gangstarr?

Pharcyde?

[goddesskia]

Oh, I forgot that I also like Method Man and Redman. Redman has the FUNNIEST metaphors EVER!


Im the bed I'm the marathon man, redman
Hittin' more walls than aerasol cans, don't I???
(Yeah Yeah you know it)
And when I fuck??? (Ain't scared to show it)
And when the Brick's outta control, barricade the city
There's an outbreak in ya outta state committee
You seen it (yeah yeah you know it)
And if you got it??? (ain't scared to show it)
You want the bad guy - here I am
I got them hoes on gilla-cam
Throwin' the drawers in the ceilin' fan
You as small as a kilogram
I'm a plane ridin' over colombia, ya middle man
I'm the boss Doc-ta Binaca
Shut up all the gossip, bring the rasta
I whoop ass like Ike Turner any day
When I stomp Mc's out I yell "Annie Mae???"
Whether I'm hot or not, pidgeons gon' flock
They gon' get that wig done fa' diggin' on Doc
Find me 'round the aisle in frozen food
Because I am so cool, cool, cool, cool


I personally think that he is also a direct influence to the split personality rhymes that Eminem adopted...Slim Shady vs.Marshall Mathers....Reggie Noble vs. Redman)...And he is the skit pioneer! Ever since he started with goofy ass skits on his shit (even having Ludacris put on before he even came out with his own shit), EVERYBODY started doing that shit.

I'm also a big Keith Murray fan..The Most Beautifullest Thing is The World...that album has me excited!

[The Logic Theorist]

*scrolls back into the thread*

I mentioned Del the Funky Homosapien.

I can't believe people don't read what I write :neener:

[The Logic Theorist]

Okay.. the Quannum track I was thinking of is "Hott People" by Lyrics Born. His flow is so smooth it's just insane. His voice is music on it's own.

As I'm listening to this again, I can't think of any flow I've ever heard that's smoother than this. You must get this track.

[Lourdes]

does nobody get down with eastern conference records>? high and mighty is the hotshit, along with my personal favorite CAGE! (who eminem COPIED)
i also fuckwith j-zone, MF Doom, Non Phixion, Canibal Ox, Tame 1, and so many more peeps, but my favorite hip hop group from all time is definatly GANGSTARR guru lyrics + Primo's beats = perfection

High and Mighty and Cage are going to be playing in Baltimore this coming Tuesday, with Akrobatik, Rasco, and Arcane.. might want to check that out.. and I fell in love with hiphop through Gangstarr.. I saw them live many years ago and it was the best live show ever..

I also like Atmosphere a lot, and Eyedea..

Saw Brother Ali, and Oddjobs this past weekend, they are both great.. Oddjobs dj (Detox) is a great DJ..

also the Micranots..


I have always loved Eminem.. granted I fumbled onto some of his old stuff before the Slim Shady LP was released, so I had a tons of his older stuff before he got big.. If it wasn't for that and I only knew about his mainstream stuff I wouldn't feel the same way.. but he has TONS of GREAT stuff lyrically wise that aren't on his cds.. It actually seems like 2 different people to me.. the mainstream Eminem, and the more underground Eminem.. and he is definetly a good producer..

Gangstarr is comprised of Guru and DJ Premier, but yeah Guru is a bomb lyricist. Personally i think Black Sheep was the best group out of the Native Tounges family, but tribe was tight
