ohhhh lord 2pac big please talk to this sucker cause they killing hip hop they taking the pain and struggle of life of hip hop the only thing we coulda express our minds and pain. and these suckers took it and made it look like garbage thats why we get judge so much cause these shit dont be making sence

This reads like a luriqua thread.

I was kinda disappointed when it wasn't!

at first I was like "LOLOLOLZ" but this actually pretty hot

yeah this song kind of kicks ass

yeah i'm totally down with this song even though i like it mostly because of the sample

lololol @ Дyo

I've always hated the original mostly because of that annoying synth riff and it really isn't that much better with someone rapping on it.

thats the thing tho j0rdan, the sample should make it suck

this is good bcuz of sample-concept-rapper synergy

or because its just fun as fuck

the video is something great tho

After every 8 bars I keep expecting the heavy drumbeat to come, but, alas, it never does. This song just makes me want to hear "Better Off Alone."

fake

see i'd find this totally listenable just because of the sample, but credit to khalifa for holding his own on the verses though

a friend of mine from pittsburgh was trynna get me to pay attention to this dude like a year and a half ago and i was all 'lol pittsburgh rap'

i mean the rapping is nothing special but he rides the beat well-- esp that part in the first verse where they stutter the drums real quick as he goes "drop it down the poll and grind slow" or w/e

yah this is pretty high on my "good 08 shit" playlist, though it admittedly doesn't have much competition right now

have y'all heard this :

i think this is a new trend or something lol

what's the sample on that?

yeah i think 'pretty rave girl' is also fire

um that video alone deserves its own thread tbh

xpost I-Am-X-Ray - Pretty Rave Girl

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD6Gq6O9ogk <-- most hardbody rave-rap track

(before someone points it out, yeah I know it's old)

UH

more stuff like this plz

i meant alice deejay in thread title obv

I'm just DYING for one of these guys to go balls-out and release a full-on, four-to-the-floor trance/rap crossover.

this song is great!

xpost

With an actual house beat, I mean.

Also, yeah, totally feeling the Wiz tune.

horrendous

slight improvement over the original but unfortunately does not take it above the mediocrity line. if it were me I would have repitched the adj riff down

i don't like all the space in the first verse really, but the video kept me watching and by the third verse i was noddin my head

pretty rave girl = ded srs btw

damn dis intrumental an da rap is gangsta

sign him up

im glad this showed up in time for FRIDAY

It's a movement:

Hood Headlinaz ft Jackie Chain and Jhi-Ali - Rollin'

^^My favourite track of the year thus far

lol one of my friends went to high school with this dude

Wiz Khalifa - Say Yeah

has anyone sampled Sonique yet???

"a friend of mine from pittsburgh was trynna get me to pay attention to this dude like a year and a half ago and i was all 'lol pittsburgh rap'

-- deej"

he is probably one of the best pittsburgh emcee's ive heard, though he is only as good as the beats he is on. at my record shop (in pittsburgh, obviously) we sold many copies of both his mixtape and his demo, which is wild since we almost never move copies of local shit because it mostly sucks.

this song in particular is very poopy, ive heard him do it live opening for Nas once and TI once, both times it made me want to throw up in my mouth. that said, the cat who does alot of his studio shit played me a track he did rapping on a 9th Wonder beat, that shit was very hot. and of course the joint he did on Nicolay's album is pretty nice. he needs to hook up with some of pgh's better beatsmiths, he could be ridiculous.

for some actually really dope pittsburgh hip-hop (though he is originally from strong island) check armstead brown:

http://www.myspace.com/peacepipeproductions

his "Fieldwork" album is actually very very good, one of the best real hiphop records i have heard in years.

which record shop pipecock?

can you recommend a good fake hiphop record?

that last song reminds me of the beat to this

altho theres a remix that sounds even more like it -- just the drums & bass part i mean

crime mob - what is love

haters everywhere was last year but same deal

pretty rave girl og:

i would be so much more pleased with kanyes new joint if it had been a full album in this vein

this is good

this dude could save rap imo

needs more blues-based syncopation

album is finally coming out on warner, this is the lead single

THROW THAT MONEY

Playing this on my 25th birthday was XD

http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/artsdesk/music/2010/03/29/review-wiz-khalifa-yelawolf-930-club/

noz's description is really on point from my observations in chicago too. kinda love this tbh

surprised to see him gushing over wiz, makes me mildly intrigued

i still bump this any time i need to psych myself up for a night out

lol I hadn't scrolled down all the way but had c the following to p and agree with:

pretty sure it is something he would not have done prior to having seen him live

no i know, i'm just surprised that wiz's live show is as good as that

i dunno man hes always seemed like a pretty natural/charismatic performer, his voice is super-clear on his singles & his music is pretty hook-y

ha, i've never seen him perform or anything -- i just assume until further notice that all young rappers have terrible live shows

J0rdan, May 3! Blue Note!

i'm def gonna go -- there hasn't even been an average rapper here in like 3 years

"say i look hi / i say im hi bro" is a genius line

i enjoy this mixtape

I DO IT GRAN-DE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRlaAZFuyAc&feature=fvst

this single's kinda slept on around here
def a strong track imo (not touching "say yeah" of course)

honestly for a track prod by stargate & it turned out way better than i would've expected

still not GREAT or anything, but yeah

J0rdan, May 3! Blue Note!

"Say Yeah" is such a classic.

GRAN-DE

I went to go buy the new m0unt41n g0ats record today but that isn't out until next week, so my 1 buy of the month goes to rolling papers :D <3 this dude.

or: anyone else actually buy rap records anymore? this is the dope.

so weird to think that the "Say Yeah" dude is a huge star now

so weird to think that the dude who made any boring-ass charismaless monotone Wiz Khalifa song is a huge star now

Shocked that you are cynical about something

lol

i am cynical about your supposed shock

::raised eyebrow::

::shaves lines into eyebrow like it was '93::

Was led to believe that I was hearing Wiz Khalifa rapping over a Phoenix sample a few days ago but can find no such thing and google and youtube are no help here. Does such a thing exist??

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dbEhBKGOtY

akon, huh?

lol i heard this on the radio a few weeks ago and thought it was just a shoddy radio dj mashup

the first time i heard it was when it was performed at the Billboard Awards, i kept hoping the cameras would cut to a confused-looking Wiz in the audience

man if you're gonna use that sample, you better ride that sample the whole way through the song because literally nothing u make urself could come close to that sample

lolz this thread

totally creeped out that it's five years old tho :(

LOOK AT ALL THESE DAMES DAMN
