Have listened to it plenty since, and really enjoyed. Tried a few of his albums before and after this one, but not really felt the need to relisten to them. Any suggestions as to what else to listen to from him, or others similar to this timeframe and style? They suggested Jeru The Damaja who Ive been enjoying, as well. It’s not from that timeframe but his joint album with 38 Spesh ‘Son Of G Rap’ from 2018 is probably my favourite thing he’s done since the 90s stuff. Give it a go if you haven’t already. 25 minutes ago, Marc Ambush Solo said: Live And Let Die >>> 4,5,6 but thats my personal opinion... I’d agree with that but I love both. That’s the KGR equivalent of choosing which Nas album was better between ‘Illmatic’ and ‘It Was Written’ for me. I have my personal favourites but most rappers would kill for an album in their discography as good as the runner ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted June 17, 2022 Author Moderators Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) I fucking love RZAs voice. Sure he's not the most technically gifted rapper, but I don't care. That first Bobby Digital album is a banger and I'm always happy when he turns up to do a guest spot. Edit: also, Gravediggaz! Come on!

Another victim of the copyright laws I assume. A shame if its that good, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Kane is still flawless. One of my favourite verses of his. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also reissued with bonus tracks some years ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell, I have no legit way of buying a digital version of it as well. Crazy to think thats the case in 2022. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sukhy Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Pusha T's It's Almost Dry is still the best album that's been released this year isn't it? Production, flows, lyrics, all on a different level.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted July 1, 2022 Author Moderators Share Posted July 1, 2022 Had a last minute trip to Brixton yesterday. Saw Edo G and Fokis, and Large Pro. It was fucking great. The Chip Shop is such a brilliant venue. It's tiny, and there's no stage at all. Seeing Large Pro spitting two feet away from me was quite the experience, especially for a gig I didn't even know about until Monday and wasn't sure I could attend until yesterday afternoon. Also he's a lot shorter than I thought he would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got into a conversation with a lad about the late 90s indie rap phase (I normally avoid such things) but everyone in there was sound, and a lovely little vibe.

Also he's a lot shorter than I thought he would be. I once saw EPMD perform live here in Rotterdam at the Watt Basement, a former venue over here... There were maybe about 50 people in the crowd if I remember correctly... Mostly white guys... The Basement was also tiny, with a small stage, which was only about 20 cm higher than the floor... So they also performed among the crowd in stead of the podium... I still remember how sad I not a lot of people showed up for the show... But thats because I'm biased as a huge EPMD fan...
