art of origin's _un-ration-al_. chino XL before he went solo does some of the most ridiculous post DAS-EFX shit i've ever heard, with lines like "straight from the fires of hell/in the bottomless pit i spit hate from my tongue/i'm throwin' that ass out the window like eric clapton's son" delivered in double or quadruple time. unfortunately i don't think it ever received a proper release... but i've seen it used a number of times.

I deleted a post and some stray attendant 'wtf?' posts at Tracer's request. It was an old post, sorry I didn't notice it before or I would've deleted it right away. Though it could've been a lyrical reference, it directly referred to an ILM poster in an obscene manner.

It was an old post, before I made a later gripe to the poster about posting abusive and pointless things on ILM. (Not doompatrol/paul related, I'll note.) I appreciate that that poster (who knows who he is) seems to have stopped, though, so consider this just some spring (er summer) cleaning.

Thanks Josh.

Tho now I need to repost the first part of my complaint: Massive Attack can't rap for shit.

can the nu-Wild Bunch crew be credited with bringing what cd be called "cabaret style" rap? i like their breathiness and low-key urgency, i just don't think they do it very well.

Started off as it meant to continue.

I'm suprised no one mentioned this classic line:

Dead in the middle of Little Italy, little did we know
that we riddled some middleman who didn't do diddily.

Though I guess it sounds more tongue-twisting when Pun says it than written down like that.

I was always impressed with the way Ice Cube phrased "...you should hear how she sounds with a cock in her / boots get knocked from here to Czechoslovakia."
