Re: fans of underground rap?
I love Doom (not in that way fellas). MMFood had some great Sade samples on it.
To this day Fancy Clown might be my favorite song. Only bad thing about Doom is that his songs are so damn short. Fancy Clown, All Caps, and pretty much all the bangers off Madvillian are all under 2:30Comment

Nah, I'll check it out. I've always been a huge fan of his production and his entire gimmick (I'm a huge Dr. Doom fan myself), but I can never stand his flow or his inability to keep it consistent over whichever beat he was on, but I'll check this one out.PSN: VoicesWrestling

Re: fans of underground rap?
Very late to this thread but underground hip hop died a long time ago. The death of underground hip hop started with "nerd rap". This whole we are keeping it real while the mainstream is killing the culture is old.
Underground hip hop was at its best back in 92-96 in my opinion. You had people like Gang Starr , Jeru , Nas , BCC , DITC , Group Home , Hieroglyphics ect..
The late 90's had some impressive underground acts as well.
Black Star
Dilated Peoples
Mr. Lif
Akrobatik
Binary Star
(old) Atmosphere
Company Flow (before El-P went emo)
Shabaam Shadeeq
Today we have ....... nothing I really want to listen toComment

Re: fans of underground rap?
I could write a book about how ignorant your last comment was, but the sheer fact that this is one of the most viewed and replied threads in OS history is enough testament on the state of underground hiphop music today.
I also find it funny you mention "Old" Atmosphere as one of your favorite acts yet you hate on EL-P for going "emo."Cameras or guns, one of them is gonna shoot me to death.Comment

Yes old Atmosphere was good. Sleven and Overcast bother are good albums. The old headshots tapes plus the dynospectrum tape was also good.I could write a book about how ignorant your last comment was, but the sheer fact that this is one of the most viewed and replied threads in OS history is enough testament on the state of underground hiphop music today.

Also this may be a most viewed thread but that means nothing. Brittney Spears is the number one single in the country right now. So if you are going by most viewed and replied then it means nothing. Lots of people like crap music and my opinion is underground hip hop today is trash.
I respect it I just don't like it.Comment

Re: fans of underground rap?
Brittney spears is a mainstream artist, who's music is readily accessible. Can you honestly say the same thing about underground hiphop music? Good music breeds good discussion, and like I said before, this thread is a testament to the state of underground hiphop today. I respect your opinion, if you don't like underground hiphop and you think it's trash...cool beans. I don't expect people to share the same opinions on everything, but I think you owe it to yourself to go through this thread and actually do your research before you say something as ignorant as underground hiphop is dead.Yes old Atmosphere was good. Sleven and Overcast bother are good albums. The old headshots tapes plus the dynospectrum tape was also good.

To quote EL-P aka Mr. Emo:
That's why I always get respect from true soldiers
That laugh at the critics claiming every year: "Hip hop's over."
**** YOU, hip hop just started

Re: fans of underground rap?
You're absolutely wrong.Originally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment

Re: fans of underground rap?
Nerd rap? Man, you need to check out some Murs and Brother Ali. I'm not even sure what nerd rap is - all I can think of is maybe Deltron 3030. I've heard it called backpack rap and can see that correlation, but nerd rap not so much. Or, if you want to go by song by song, check out DJ Z-Trip's "Breakfast Club." I don't think its possible for anybody to dislike that track.
