speaking of tom breihan and his wackness, this clipse response to his review of the Till The Casket Drops mixtape is pretty damn funny

[William Hutson]

i guess. it comes off as a little butt hurt, though, and his review wasn't really wrong.

i really really like the clipse, but i'm a little sad that neptunes won't be producing the whole new album. still excited for it, though.

[dave quam]

I guess so, maybe just amused by the fact Tom B was a big player on deciding Clipse were ok for a certain crowd,and thenthis? Surprise me they came back at him.

Disapointed by that factor about the new album as well, but we shall see.

[William Hutson]

especially after that disappointing re-up gang album. no beats by scott storch please.

i am glad that the thornton brothers can write, though. that blog post is so much more literate and reasonable than, say, any by kanye.

[dave quam]

yeah that re-up gang album wasn't so great

I thought the casket mixtape was good though, but maybe I was just glad it was better than the re-up album, so really not saying a whole lot heh

no beats by scott storch please.

yeah, no nothing by Scott Storch, for anyone please

speaking of tom breihan and his wackness

heh. i'm in no position to hate on somebody for being a college-educated white guy who wants to talk about rap music on the internet.

[dave quam]

From the writings of his I have read, I feel capable, and I certainly respect your opinion whatever your background may be. Maybe was a bit drunk when I said "his wackness" though he is not someone I turn to for his opinion on hip hop.

I don't have a bachelors yet though.

There seems to be some interesting stuff coming out this year. I have high hopes for:

Pastor Troy - Feel me or Kill me
Attitude - T.I.M. (Time is Money)
Trey Songz - Ready
UGK - 4 Life

We'll see, who knows.

Listening to this and its pretty good. Freddie is from Gary Indiana

[William Hutson]

^ i know, huh.

[bkudler]

That Freddie Gibbs mixtape is great. It's really diverse, but I guess that's how everyone from the midwest does it --one way or another. Also since he's from the midwest he's allowed to have both Devin The Dude and Just Blaze on his record. Also the new XO, mixtape "Monumental" is great speaking of genre bending.

[dave quam]

The Jacka cover is so crazy

So much great production on that thing

Speaking of the Yay
