Have to agree with The Roots they seemed to have rode their luck a bit with the instrument playing niche that they have. Never got into them and thought their album from last year was pretty grim. Eminem should go without saying but I've seen him mentioned in lists of rappers who are...

Any NYC/Statesiders been to see him? Got tickets to watch him this Saturday. One of the few performers at Edinburgh Fringe that I've seen universal good reports for.

It'd be hard for me to be much further away from the place. Had a chuckle at the AUS videos on the other thread regardless.

Ridin Dirty. Nice loops but I can't get with the beats at all.

One of my favourite hip hop releases of last year. Much preferred it to El-P's solo joint.

Yeah it's a pretty good album.

Thanks for the reply. I'll no doubt go and watch them anyhow and hope for the best.

Are they worth seeing live nowadays? I got a ticket for Funkmasters approximately 7 years ago and thought they were ok at best. Fred Wesley is playing in my town again soon with the New JB's and I'll probably attend regardless.

Is he being ironic with the Gil Scott Heron and Miles Davis comparisons.?

Innis and Gunn is one of my local breweries. Didn't realise they'd hit the international market. There's a few bars here that serve it on draught, very nice stuff if a little sweet depending on your taste.

Has anyone see them play live recently? I'm picking up a bunch of tickets for me and a few friends who will be treating it as a quasi religious experience I'm sure.

Recently bumped into an old friend who got me into good guitar based music late 80s with Doolittle - Pixies The Queen Is Dead - The Smiths Surfer Rosa - Pixies Prior to that I was only buying hip hop.

I'm not sure about this new Ka track just yet.

Hoping for an appearance from Sylvia Striplin.

I don't like Chance's voice either.
