You're both wrong

The reason i posted this thread is to whine about how **** this board is at both properly appreciating and discussing hip hop/rap music

Ps: ki and neo of all people need not try to give insight on jwb posts.. that is like the blind leading the blind.

A journal might work better for you as it doesn't necessarily require the same kind of direct feedback that threads on the discussion forums do.

If you build it, they will come. Lead the pack. Carpe Diem.

/cliches.

Show us your hot tracks and tell us why they're great.

That's fair I guess. Over the years I've realized that my thought process while listening to music is usually either "I enjoy this" or "I don't enjoy this." So, I've found that I don't really have much to contribute to music discussions in general without being dishonest.

This, but there are some good topics in the hiphop forum that don't require much more than that, and William has made some good "game" threads that no one is really interested in playing. Hip hop forums are pretty dead here which is the main reason I ended up posting so often in general chat and not so much about music.

A lot of music discussion I participate in takes place in plug nowadays.

I'd go more into the hip hop section, but it's not a genre I'm that well-versed in (hipster hop especially, but I'm still shakey on 90s gangsta rap, past the major artists.) I've been listening to a bit more, recently, but not enough to say smart things about it, and there isn't really enough talk in the sub-forum to go about educating myself past the basics.

BTW, what are trve hip hop fans' opinions on Esoteric? I know he's one of those "battle rappers" (don't know if that's the term, but it's one I heard used) who pals around with the likes of Vinnie Paz and Army of the Pharaohs. Not as big on a lot of that stuff, but Esoteric wins me over more than most.

I haven't heard 7l & Esoteric's newest stuff but I like them ~2004. I've posted up some of their tracks in the hiphop reco thread.

Fantastic album right here:


His rhymes are have a battle rap feel to them, but Idk if he's considered a battle rapper. I've never actually heard him in a battle.

The last i heard from Esoteric was the Czarface album he made with Inspectah deck.



He's a pretty good rapper although i prefer El-P's flow. Hip hop is not really my favorite genre so idk much about it that's why i rarely get into hip hop discussions around here.
