Music Recomendations

[Ro]

This has been a sad year for hip ho so far (aside from Common), so I have been listening to a lot of old stuff, and some 2004 goodies.

Jeru The Damaja - The Sun Rises In The East
Murs - 3:16
No ID - Accept Your Own and Be Yourself (The Black Album)
De La Soul - The Grind Date
The Roots - The Tipping Point
Group Home - Livin' Proof

And John Legend is still a mainstay after 3 months. Good album.

Alot of Common fans here. I've always thought he was really overated and lacked good flow.
Perhaps I will give him another chance.

For those of you who are board of most hip/hop and want something a little different, Dizzee Rascal is a must listen.
He takes some getting used to, but after a while his stuff is infectious.
The album "Boy in da corner" won the Mercury music award in the UK about 2 or 3 years back and is awsome. Unfortunatly he still hasn't broke here, but he should be heard.

No CD player.... I just put the iPod on shuffle.... lemme see what pops up...

Sarah Brightman
Blue Rodeo
Melanie Doane
Leonard Cohen

Garbage?
Homers list is great.

What is fake about any of those artists?
They might not rap about what you want to hear, but that doesn't make it fake.
I would take good rap about the streets and gangs over your supposed MEANINGFUL yet talentless boring garbage anyday.

Not really, actually. I don't like the radio, if I can't listen to the exact music I want when I want it's not worth my time. Although the odd times I do listen to music on the radio, it normally is CJAY, yeah.

[the_only_turek_fan]

I love the techno, trance, eurodance kinda stuff.

That site has a whole wack of it!!!

Because most of us on CP can really relate to gang and street life.

I'll take Atmosphere, Sage Francis, Common, etc. over Tupac everyday of the week.

well if your from forest lawn............



But, come on man you don't give rappers enough credit, it's not every word they're saying it's the underlying message, and are you just relating to a select few songs? have you heard "Keep your Head Up", "Wonder Why They Call You Bitch", "Dear Mama" etc. ?
