Can't believe no ones recommended Bone Thugs n Harmony yet! Not listened to these guys in a while but they used to be all I'd listen to a couple of years ago.

Just wait until Bizzy Bone drops his verse at 1.47

and then how could I forget their song with 2Pac

Unreal rap group, so so so good!

The interesting part is that after a couple songs I had written them off as sort of a novelty rap act that I expected to turn off soon and probably never listen to again. But by then I was enraptured - couldn't/can't stop listening. Thanks!
I downloaded that album a week or two ago, and though it seems promising, I have to admit it hasn't totally clicked with me so far.

I really didn't think it would click with me either. But I couldn't turn it off because the raps became infectious and I wanted to hear what they were going to say next. After a few songs like that I was sort of hooked. Some of their songs are too long and repetitive and silly. But mostly I find their lyrics fascinating and the beats are good enough - especially on the recent one. We'll see how long the love lasts though, they are kind of a novelty act no matter how you look at it.

I've been listening to the mixtape nonstop since reading this thread. I love the intro to "all tan everything"

"white people can't even go out into the sunlight without getting a disease"

Just put out a new album. There's some previously released stuff on there, and it's not full length, but it's real good. Features folks like Unsung and Emancipator.

Those flourishes are what I love about Das Racist.

Personally I like the song where he says something about "Costanza dicks". Though it's kind of lame that he immediately explains the joke.

Yeah, it's hit-and-miss. But I'm fascinated with the way they just flow on forever and ever. They say so many funny/clever/insightful things in there among the stupid things that it's like hearing a good stand-up comedian who walks the line between satire and serious social criticism.
