GREAT beats, I was recommended this album. Haven't heard vol. 1 yet. Most of the emcees and singers came correct, a couple had bars that weren't memorable.

Dj Premier - Rough Beats & Loops Vol 2 - As expected with this title, very rough but raw beats.... its like its scrap bin.

Yeah, wasn't just X's energy though, sometimes the depth that he had was the reasons why he had the comparisons to Pac etc. Slippin' is in my top 100 all time hip hop tracks, I'd say.

Aigyo's amazing and well worth a listen, Spirited Away is nice, but it was something I got because my class were studying the film.

I really need to get that Blood Diamond soundtrack then, 'cos yeah, the film's amazing, Di Caprio's my favourite actor of recent years.

P.s. SMH @ Drake LOL. Saw him live, dude was alright.

Aigyo is officially on the list....

Blood Diamond Soundtrack is like African Cinema new genre. Dude i agree Di Caprio is one my favorite actors... Just watched Shutter island last week... Amazing man!

Drakes new album was a solid 4/5 album.... Yet probably isnt Hip hop hahaha more like R&B. I Gotta feeling you would like it...... you heard it??

Cool, you'll enjoy it and I'll probably have a few of those on Japanese Joy Vol. 3!

Sweet, I'll definitely check out the soundtrack! Yeah definitely, Shutter Island turns your world upside down, I really HATED the ending so much so that I thought it was GENIUS! Because any film that can upset you that much has seriously done its homework!!! I was really rooting for Di Caprio's character and I was really unsure of myself when I realised what was happening... almost still didn't believe it.

Hahaha nah, I've not check for it, tbh. I tried listening to two tracks in The Reason that were posted and I just wasn't all that impressed :unno:, I'll probably check it out eventually though... I've not even got a list anymore, I just listen when I get the chance. Not doing as good a job as mod as I'd like to be, but work is officially priority this year. Unfortunately. We'll see as the new year comes in whether can change that!

Shit, getting confused 'cos Boog Brown and Apollo Brown are on the same label and I have no idea how I made that mistake lol! But there are officially too many Brown's in the underground for my liking…! My bad fam! :tu
