downloading that Aceyalone album now. Got the "classic" moniker from Certain and a rare 5 star rating from AMG so I figure it'll be a good one.

you ever get caught up in your verse unexpectedly when it was just supposed to be a throwaway and now you want to flesh it out more and make a whole thing out of it but the line limit and/or time limit is up so oh well?
that sucks. see, there is a drawback to last minute writing. who knew?

Well laa dee da, Kids like Diode say such stupid things because they've lived their entire lives with a touchtone telephone. They don't know life without it and what a true revolution this whole thing has been. Our generation watched it all happen from childhood through high school. That's why I hate seeing myself or anyone born in the early 60s get lumped in with "eigtenienials". I grew up with Huns and Japs, newfangled telegraphs, tvs with color-vision and volume knobs, the portable brick, sunday morning moonshine, lumber mills and string machines, BEARS/McEisenhower, staying out until the gas lamp came on, more bricks, and a whole host of other things the " eigtenienials" have no experience with.

Blackstar at 88? atrocious. as is Eminem only having one appearance, at 48 no less. and Black album top 10 all time?
I think you got 1 and 2 right though.

The BlackStar album never connected with me as much as others. Talib Kweli was really rough around the edges still.
And I wouldn't put a second Eminem album in my next 50, either. The Marshall Mathers LP really never did it for me. Too much screaming, not enough meaning. I want an entire album of songs like "Rock Bottom." That'd be in the top 10. As far as The Black Album, it definitely qualifies as the album I overrate because of a personal connection.

The Cold Vein is solid. The Firm was not.
You might have guessed I've put some thought into this, guys.

can't argue the flavor, I respect that. also glad you agree Me Against the World is Pac's best album.

Yeah, I mean, we're talking about the 100 best albums in rap history. Nothing with Foxy Brown on half of it is going to qualify.
