fans of underground rap?

[Fresh Tendrils]

Not sure if anybody has mentioned Felt yet, but I'm loving their second album Felt 2: A Tribute To Lisa Bonet. I just got the album today and I'm hooked.

well, lots of people have mentioned Murs and Atmosphere, and Murs + Slug (of Atmosphere) = Felt.

and yeah, I also enjoyed that album.

I know, I just didn't check to see what was posted other than that top 10 list of JD's.

I know he's had a few videos in rotation, and he did the commercial for the Big Ten, but I don't think people know who he is. They've probably heard the name but wouldn't recognize the face. Anyway, I don't really know how to label him, which I think is a good thing. Plus, I don't really care what he is, as long he keeps producing good records.

Agreed. He's one of the best lyricists in the game.

He's fallen off in my eyes. He hasnt been as consistent since his Reflection Eternal/Train of Thought release.

He aint fallen off i mean "Right Now" wasnt as good as "Reflection Eternal" cuz dat was a classic so its hard to improve on that but he stil is one of the top dawgs.

I guess I just listened to him so much that now I've moved on to different emcees. I'm really feelin' Doom right now.

Yeah, can we please stop comparing everything Kweli does to Reflection Eternal? I mean that was a classic and to expect greatness out of Kweli on every track is not realistic.

Also, I had no idea Felt existed even though I've listened to Atmosphere for the past 3 years, and when I heard Felt 2 (my first Felt experience), I was blown away. Truly good stuff, it's heavy in my rotation.
