I gotta agree^^^^

what you guyz think is Ice Cubes best album?

and also does anyone know what happened to that Underground Hip HOp award thing...hosted by Killah Priest.

i thought you were leaving, HH

What do you think about Red and Meth, Hockey? What do you think Cube's best album is?

i prefer Red cuz of Dare Iz a Darkness but i haven't heard the full albums for the other ones...Meth WAS great in 36 Chambers

i haven't heard all of Tical cuz half way i turned it off 😂

and Cube's i would say The Predator but i haven't heard all his other albums...

EB- yea im gone, but i try to post at least a few times a week and today i finally dont have much homework 😮‍💨

This is exactly why his first album was such a huge disappointment. Everybody expected so much more. I mean, a million times more. He had the talent to drop a absolute classic, but he failed. I couldn't believe it, especially after Bring the pain.

I think Cubes best was Death Certificate. One of those albums were you dont have to skip any tracks. Alive on arrival, Bird in the hand and My summer vacation are my favourite tracks. Amerikkkas most wanted was awesome to. Just my 2 cents. 😄

The Predator, thats one of my favorite albums of the genre. It's his darkest and most serious.

Death Certificate is a close second.

I gotta say that Stunt 101 wasn't a banger and Killa Cam wasn't. Mos Def has always been on the horizon. I would give Jay my lifetime achievement award because this is Jay's year. I think that next year will be LL's time to shine.

is the new De La Soul album any good?

and also

The whole Fermented Reptile album along with any Pip Skid and Gruf albums. Great political MC's.

I'll post some individual tracks later when I can really think about it.

Man, I don't believe you can't call Stunt 101 a banger. Listen to beat, dog. Proof from D12 did that track and in my opinion he's catching up to Eminem. And remember who taught Eminem. Dre "The Beat Genius"! That family tree of producers is run'n thangz. Along with kats like The Neptunes, the Alkemist, and Kanye, that's the future of hip-hop.
And I didn't say LL was the "man of the year". I'm giving him props for hanging in there like swimwear. I don't even think his spit holds up today but somebody does since he's top 10. 20 years in this industry. I mean, damn.

Yo, Hockey. Check out:
Pharcyde (If I were President)
Black Eye Peas (Where is the Love)
Jada Kiss (Why)
Wyclef (If I were President)

And listen to the "Wake up Show" on 106.1 kmel in the bay area.
PEACE 💃

His teacher will probably laugh and say this guy's paranoid and full of conspiracy theories.

Also, a number of Public Enemy songs will do.

When I hear this, I always laugh. LL fell off a long time ago. It's been so long since he's released a decent album, I can't even remember what his last decent album was. LL makes music for pre-teen girls and clubbers. That's it. He sucks. I mean, SUCKS. He cares more about his abs than making a good record. The only reason he's still here today is because of girls 13 and under.

Support the folks who make hip-hop because they love it!! NOT FOR PROFIT!

mcenroe and Birdapres - Nothing Is Cool

Release date: Nov 16, 2004
Cat. No: P&C032CD
Format: CD

One of the first people mcenroe met when he moved to Vancouver, BC, Canada in 2000 was legendary west coast rapper Birdapres. They hung out, went digging for records, and eventually came to the conclusion that they should probably make a record together. After Birdapres guested on nearly every record that mcenroe produced (mcenroe’s Convenience EP, John Smith’s Blunderbus,Hip Hop Wieners, Break Bread EP) they finally got down to business and released a few tracks on Peanuts & Corn - Fall 2003.

Nothing Is Cool is a hot album! mcenroe is in absolute top vocal form and in great spirits. Although he is known for the thought provoking, introspective songwriting of 2003’s Disenfranchised ,he proves his versatility with tight flows, humor, and a hungrier, confident style. Birdapres picks up where his None Missing single left off with complex rhymes and catchy hooks.

mcenroe and Bird collaborated on both the rhymes and the beats on this entire record. The result is some funky, fresh production that gives a nod to the golden age without sounding dated.

1- 5000 Watts
2- Break Merchant
3- Grumpy Old Men
4- Nothing Is Cool
5- Broke Beat
6- Party People
7- Bad Actorb
8- Family Business
9- The Worst Person
10- A Little Bitter (w/John Smith)
11- South Slope (w/Stace Prints)
12- Wanted To Cooperate
13- Supposed
14- F*@k You 2k3

Hockey, if there's one song you should show your teacher, it's this:
http://www.mcenroe.net/rams/pc025/serviceinenglish.ram

It's For Service in English, Press One by mcenroe. If anything, listen to this song for your own enjoyment, because it's great. But for sure, if there's one song to show your teacher, it's this one.

Also, if you've heard of Mr. Lif, then you know what to add to your political compilation. He's probably the best political MC today. Check out his albums. Seriously Hockey, they're great.

If you're teacher could hear these albums, he'd have a lot more respect for hip-hop:
