Great example of Rza mixing in beats and different clan members just killin it. Streetlife is featured here too.

One of my favorites.

i'm in a j-live longevity (headrush mix) type mood at the moment.

I agree.

But the most successful rapper currently has LIL in his name.

He was never good.

Point is, Lil doesnt stop someone from being popular.

A little old school

today's HHSOTD entry comes from the "yrx" part of latyrx, aka lyrics born with his "political" song off'a the "everywhere at once" LP. i love the beat on this song (which i think LB produced. he's pretty slick about it, IN FACT, there was an album add-on or a standalone DVD called "the lyrics born DVD experience" which featured some music videos of his (the latyrx music video was awesome... holy shit the world needs another latyrx EP/LP/something. in 98-99 i used to drive a 94 celica GT with *two* latyrx stickers on the back window (along with a j-live sticker! RAW SHACK RECORDS Y'ALL1!!!" --- oh yeah, my original point was that on the lyrics born DVD experience one of the videos was of him going and making a beat... literally in ~10 minutes he had a working hiphop beat based off of old funk/jazz loops, and literally, you're in his crib and watching him set it up with his software/mpc, and i love shit like that. it gives back to the little wannabes like me in the rap community.

anyways i'm rambling, so please enjoy lyrics born - do u buy it?

then no, i haven't. i've read something about them in the red eye whilst on a bus, but at that show i was fashionably late enough cuz really i only wanted to see sean price and monch that night.

i'm still pissed that the pharoahe monch / slaughterhouse tour spring/summer 2010 didn't come through chicago. i guarantee you that monch will tour australia ~4-5 times b4 he has another show here in chicago.

anyways, what are like 2-3 good songs by them that i should go check out? i've got a new 8gb mp3 player and these kickass $17ish sharper image "big" headphones that bump so i could use the ammunition.

Boomin is really good.
Penny Hardaway feat Ghost is good (even if it has kind of a weak hook)

I'd suggest listening to the EP Bake Sale first. A couple of really good bass heavy trakcs. Chuck Inglish is a really good producer and not a bad rapper...

thanks gents... soulseek is getting a workout today.

i'm borderline if i should start a thread on these $17 headphones i copped. i got 'em at borders in schaumburg where they're $25 and 30% off while they're clearing out, and as someone who burns through like ~5 pairs of headphones per year thanks to perpetually bumping music / radio whilst using public trans, these headphones almost have me ready to go back and buy another pair or two to back 'em up. don't sleep!

_________________

You should. I've been looking for some better quality headphones since I can't seem to keep a pair longer than a couple months...

If you got them from anywhere in Schaumburg I can assure you that they are the greatest ever. They probably could be sold for about $300.

_________________

the problem is that when i got them i threw out the box so i don't have the model # or anything....

see, i come from years of fucking with those $20-25 sony "studio monitor style" headphones, as those were the standard for how i rolled. then my local walgreens started stocking skullcandy ones which sound slighty better than the sony ones but fall apart quick. cuz i don't like fucking with "normal" headphones, i need the big ones, and i'm all about that $25ish market.

well these sharper image ones sound way better than the sony studio monitor style ones, in fact, at the schaumburg borders they had a bunch of sharper image headphones that look like the sony ones, but also bend and whatnot... i'm so glad i went with the "big" headphones.

they're black with white circles and red trim on the side of the earmuffs.... and as i said they're like $17.40 or something after their 30% discount, and they sound just as good if not even a tad better than my KOSS ur-20s which i've used @home for all of my recording/mixing/etc uses. and these are just walk around the street headphones...

then i walk around a FYE in woodfield and notice while htere's a white pair of those sony studio monitor style ones for like $15, all of the comprable headphones to mine are $40-50+. I wouldn't fuck with skullcandy shit ever again, and so many of the $40-50ish headphones got dumb shit on the sides of them... fuck that. like i said, i almost wanna effort running back over there after work and coppin another pair of them for $17 while they're still there.
