Absolutely love The Quakers album; best thing I've heard in a long time.

Fucking hell, who the fuck wants Tupac being shit from beyond the grave?

 

It was bad enough when the cunt was alive.

And his hologram has a touch of the Jar Jar Binks about it.

Was digging around in Youtube, after reading a piece on Zimbabwean Hip Hop in the Guardian tonight, and stumbled across this mini-documentary about the scene there. Amazing rhymes, all beat-boxed, with loads of free-styling and sounding very reminiscent in style to all those early 90's crews.

 

Hope you enjoy it:

Does this belong in here? Sod it, suppose so.

 

Never been one for rap/hiphop type stuff, well apart from some of the earlier analoguey synthy type stuff, but this fella has been growing on me a lot lately.

Nice retro synthy bits and intelligent lyrics.

16-bit style synth has my heart immediately. Quality Le Sac. Excellent Scroob.

The baseball thread made me think of this.

Do any of you listen to Hopsin or Childish Gambino?

I cant for the life of me believe it went 5 years before I noticed this song, just superb.

Putting this in here as I presume anyone visiting this thread will be a fan of his, but I'm interviewing Big Daddy Kane ahead of his first ever Liverpool show later this month, and was wondering if any of you had any good questions to ask him?*

 

*I may/definitely will pass them off as my own.

Some dope beats on here but not much from Japan or Germany. Check out Nujabes, died recently, mainly jazz hip hop beats some instrumental some with American rappers. Did a lot of collab with Fat Jon. I have been listening this all day. Love the upright bass keeping the flow.

can someone let me know how to embed.

The rapper, 50, is believed to have been rushed to a New York hospital on Friday (2 April), with sources claiming the overdose triggered a heart attack.

According to TMZ, the rapper has “some brain activity”, but the source described him as being in a “vegetative state”.
