Id assume judging by the artists he's listed that he is aware of this, but prefers one over the other? Course I could be way wrong :tongue: I was listening to Bunky's Pick from Cut Chemist and Madlib last night. I missed that one
Yeah I know they are the same, Madlib, is the beat konducta, all the members of Yesterday's New Quintet, Quasimoto, him and MF together as Madvillian, him and J.Dilla as Jaylib. DJ Rels. He was in the Lootpack, and the Supreme Team. Such a wide ranging producer, but alot of mainstream hip hop doesnt mention him, so we never here of him. Thats what i like about it, it's underground I have that Bunky's Pick on the Stones Throw, 10 years album, the tracks preceding it, and following it go really well together it's all one mix I especially like Sunrise from DJ Rels aka Madlib
You got some pretty good stuff on that list. But Maestro Fresh Wes.. that guy just sounds hollow and dry.
Overall best rapper would be The Game. Best Lyricist would be eminem hands down, the dude is just sick whether you like him or not. Hip/Hop beats for the club Lil Jon, 50, Timberland, Longest regime over the last 10-15 years would be Cypress Hill (B-real been holding it down for a long time) Jay-z, Mobb Deep, Nas.................................
I have too many lol. My favorites are Tupac, 50 Cent, B.I.G., Pharrell, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, LL Cool J, MC Lyte, Queen Latifah, NAS, Snoop Dogg, etc.
I second that- good list man ima check the ones I dont know out cuz you had so many top grade rappers on the list to the dude who likes eminem, he fell off like alot of rappers do, marshall mathers lp was fire and its downhill after but that cd is near perfect. He directly mocks critics, I loved that cd. and it bumps. done with rant
eminem has been weak ever since he changed his style from his first album, infinite. too bad he had to dumb it down to sell records.
right now im listening to anything from quannum projects...pigeon john, gift of gab, lyrics born, blackalicious, sage francis, poets of rhythm and.. the coup, talib kweli and... tupac. dre. snoop. biggie. and i must give some love to grandmaster flash, africa bambaataa, kool herc, krs one..... ok i cant do this. i could go on for quite some time. i do not have a favorite.
SPM South Park Mexican aka Carlos Coy is easily the best, one of my ex's went to school with him and i grew up in his hood, he is as real as it gets, he is serving life. B Real is a close second.
