Earl sweatshirt, mf doom,kanye,mf grimm,and uh idk prince paul
Krs and Tommy Wright
I appreacte rakims contributions to the culture
But he fucking bores me
How much of his shit have you actually listened to though
I've listened to over 500 hip hop albums
And Nas there’s just no good excuse to not atleast like Illmatic
Your point being
I dont like illmatic
Its too
Straight foward
That’s probably the most retarded criticism I’ve heard of his album or an album generally but, you dig what you dig I guess. I can understand why someone who’s fucked with primarily new school shit can’t appreciate the old school or would think it’s boring
Like if you thought Rakims paid in full album is boring I guess I can understand although his lyricism keeps me hooked but
Wut
Prince paul isa old school rapper
The Master And the 18th letter are fucking phenomenal
Mf doom has been around since 1989
And mf Grimm has also been around for awhile
He did like one song in 89 with 3rd bass
Still 89
And rakim was quickly dated
Like
Listen to
One for all and dont sweat the technique back to back
I’ll be honest with you, most of don’t sweat the technique, follow the leader, let the rhythm hit em Feel like filler and don’t sound that different sonically, although there are a few gems among the rough
Paid in full was pretty great for me all around
And both of rakims post Eric B solo albums are fuckin awesome though
Again I appreciate rakims contribution to the culture
I just don't care for his music
But have you actually listened to The 18th letter and the master though
H
That was my Og question
Is that his first solo album?
The 18th letter is
Oh yeah brand Nubian is legit
Yeah I listened to a couple songs off of 18th letter and went back to listening to big daddy kane
