IMO, The Marshall Mathers LP could possibly be THE greatest album ever.Quote:

Lyrically I think "The Way I am" is one of the greatest songs ever written.

*Sad thing about Rap/Hip-Hop and all that is that IMO, I ain't heard a good album since then theres been some pretty good ones but not good enough. The Marshall Mathers LP is also the last Rap/Hip-Hop album I've bought.... :(
Damn! I sure miss D'Angelo... :(
I hear yeah my brother !

We really ain't got a D'Angelo now not Usher, not Omarion, not Mario, not Chris Brown the ONLY 3 cat's out there that I think are gonna take it to ANOTHER level are Anthony Hamilton, John Legend and Neyo <---- espceially this young cat here lyrical genuis written HIT'S not just songs BUT hit's for Beyonce, Mary J. Blige and others IMO all 3 amazing artists...

yo Mick I know D'Angelo had a drug problem and was in rehab.. ,, the man is still with us tho? right ? he didnt pass or anything?
Marshall Mathers LP was without a doubt Em's greatest effort. Amazing CD.
D'Angelo is awesome. If you liked him, listen to J Dilla Donuts. J Dilla is probably the most influential hip hop producer of all time and he was the man on the boards behind a lot of Tribe's stuff, and he had a profound influence on D'Angelo. Dilla died last year and it was only then when people really realized how special he was.
But there have been some REALLY good CD's in the last 4 or 5 years, just slept on.
Black Star - Mos Def & Talib Kweli are Black Star
Late Registration - Kanye West (honestly, this is one of those that never gets old)
Be - Common
Things Fall Apart - The Roots
True & Livin' - Zion I
The Minstrel Show - Little Brother (Pretty much everything by Little Brother is AMAZING. Phonte could be the best rapper ever when it's all said and done imo)
Reflektion Eternal - Train of Thought
Power In Numbers - Jurassic 5
Deltron 3030 - Del The Funky Homosapien
Mood Muzik 2 - Joe Budden (best mixtape of all time imo, unbelievable stuff)
None may feature the raw lyricism of Em (except Budden's which is ALL lyrics basically) but all are great on the music end. I would definitely suggest picking these up, especially Budden. Don't judge him off of his album, that's not Budden so much as it is Def Jam. Try like all hell to get Mood Muzik 2 I absolutely guarantee you won't regret it. The lyrics in that one are nothing short of jaw dropping and while he doesn't have the same intensity of Em, the mixtape is awesome. It is what it's called, mood music. Not exactly the type of music you bang in your car, but that one right there has gotten me through many a nights alone on the computer posting on Saddo's. Listening to it is really an awesome experience. I've never listened to an album all the way through at the end, and then sat back and thought "wow." That's what I did with this one.
Get past the goofy skits, annoying DJ On Point brands and you have something that could have EASILY been a commercial album imo. Lyrical masterpiece.
He had a drug problem and it came to a head when he almost died in a car crash. But he's back and ?uestlove said the new album is almost done about a month ago.Quote:

Kanye I like some of his stuff.
The Roots are sick man!
I also have Like Water For Chocolate and J5.
I heard a few of Buddens tracks but found nothing special (call me crazy)
Even veteran rappers like Jay-Z, Diddy (if you consider him), Nelly, Fat Joe, Ja Rule..... They have 1 or 2 good songs but thats about it I;m looking for a really good ALBUM full album and I ain't seen one since (aside from the more Hip-Hop ones from Common or Talib)
Probably Kanyes album has been the best since now that I think about it....
I read what I posted below on Rolling Stone about 2 months ago, or maybe it was longer then that... ???Quote:
