I'm a big fan of The Roots and Erykah, DeLa is also blazin... the OLD Black Eyed Peas were also cool ... and of course Tupac. Okay, he was already on that money and b!tches - track in the end, but I love his lyrics though.
Know, everytime I listen to some Cassidy or JKwon or Lil' whatever or what those b!tches names are, it makes me think of "Dead on it" 
"Riding in my Thunderbird on the freeway I turned on my radio 2 hear some music play I got a silly rapper talking silly sh!t instead..." Feel me
[Edited 8/31/04 11:28am] oh yeah! wanna hear something cool? this is how fabulous chaka K. is: i heard that she read the lyric sheet, listened to the track and did the lead vocal for 'ain't nobody' in ONE TAKE. legendary. even if it's just a rumor! i like to think it's true though, feel me? fo' someone who can't stand dem tv dinnas, you sho' eat enough of them mutha#@$%!s | |

So like you were there picking mangos and talking to a volleyball, and you told me that i should wait for gilligan to get home and you, me, the skipper, the tiki, the professor, Maryanne, Ginger and the Howells all had a big party. Great! Good to see you participating. If you're interested check this out: http://www.amazon.com/exe...s&n=507846 | |

I used to play drums for this rapper named MC Babee Power and his Band, i'm sure you know who he is if you like the Roots, he's the guy in the video in that mansion that is singled out at one point and the caption underneath Babee's face says, "WHY IS THIS GUY IN EVERY RAP VIDEO?" lol. anyway, they were hosting this hip hop talent showcase and we performed and Trugoy gave me a pound and said i was a great funky-ass drummer. WHO SAYS A WHITE MAN CAIN'T JUMP! Man that made my fucking day, because i have SO much respect for them as artists, rappers, being brave enough to come out the way they did and just be themselves and not conform to what was considered 'cool' in rap at the time. You know they got a lot of shit for having so many white fans too, which was a big deal back in the day. History repeats itself they say, and just like Ultramagnetic MCs, they came out, completely changed the face of rap music and set a standard that you can link to so many of today's artists and got ABSOLUTELY NO CREDIT FOR IT. When we first heard Kool Keith from Ultramagnetic, we couldn't BELIEVE they rhymes he would come up with. they were so different and crazy we just went bananas. i felt the same way about Dela and tribe when i first heard them. Buhloone Mind State is their best shit fo' someone who can't stand dem tv dinnas, you sho' eat enough of them mutha#@$%!s | |
