Yeah. Euphony is good, it's basically just a collection of Atoms Fam collabs and whatnot, but it's got some great stuff on it, 'Sinister' and 'Water' (both feature Aes Rock) are outstanding. The Prequel (album) is good too, haven't listened to it much though. Alaska is dope.

the prequel is better in my opinion, its mainly cryptic one, alaska and vast aire. euphony has a few aesop tracks on it, but not as much alaska, who's my favourite from the group.

Oh and if anyone wants something new to check out, get hold of Sin-A-Matic by Louis Logic. One of the most underrated indie hip-hop albums ever.

i liked his track on ritual of the molemen, think it was called resume.

Its pretty easy to set up and D00m (the artist formaly known as Eraserhead) and a few others have loads of P&C stuff on there. Its also cool to chat on.

ill check it out, i wanna buy that p & c stuff eventually, support the canadian hip hop scene. previewing it wont hurt

gruf and pip skid came to kingston, it was an awesome show. i dont have a lot to compare it to, first rap show for me, but they had tons of energy and they played some of my favourite songs which was cool.

El-P and Cage played literally everything when I saw them, couldn't have picked a better setlist myself.

Im envious of you both.

yeah it sucked, i spent all my money on gettin ****ed up and into the show. i couldnt get any of their cds.

As long as you enjoyed it thats the main thing. You can get the CD's from their site at a later date, the prices seem very reasonable. Getting messed up is never a waste of money in my view.

"not a lotta bling
when he do the thing bada boom bada bing
from the womb to the tomb
get that ricotta bada bing bada boom
doom, your reputation preceeds you
wait til you crack and see what weed do dweeb you"

You are seriously Doomed up Dr.

rarrrwrshhhh!

get that ricotta koolruningz

get it NOW!
