Beatnut Appreciation Thread

[mannybolone]

In one fell swoop, Ya'll So Stupid managed to both give themselves one of the worst group names ever conceived AND do the same for their album title.

That said, I always liked the title track and still do.

RG: if you are looking for any of the group's vinyl, my experience has been that both the "Van Full" 12" and LP seem to be fairly easy to come by and never for very much.

lets not forget Fat Joes "Watch the Sound" as far as Nuts remixes go

in my top 5 of fav rap groups of all time

I definitely understand you on this one...The name was indeed ridiculous. But the album is a jawn. At least for me. The LP is filled with nice samples. "monkey off my back" was the shit. Now there was a few alternative cuts "?? la Digable Planets" that i didn't feel, but overall, the LP was bangin' back then. It may ave not passed the test of the time for some, but i would not rate it bad if i had to rate it.

With that said, here's me Beatnuts Top 5 remixes :
-"Ruffneck" MC Lyte (in case people need a 101 on filtered basslines)
-"I Like It" Jomanda (it was the only r&b track in my set back then...lol!)
-"Watch The Sound" Fat Joe (i bought it for the remix and the instru was a fav)
-It's On" N.B.N (another track i used to spin the shit out of...)
-"Shade Bizness" P.M.D. (quiet a rare 12" to catch back then)

And my Beatnuts Top 5 tracks from LP :
-"No Equal"
-"Fuck, Drink Beers and Smoke Some Shit"
-"Do You Believe"
-"Lick The Pussy"
-"Superbad"

I been had the Van Full and 85 South singles.

And as far as the LP, I don't just want any copy. I want faux's abandoned copy.

How old was faux in '93 anyway?

aint nobody fuckin with the Beatnuts for real.

Ju Ju got lines for days and the conviction that you cant put a price on.

The fucking J-lo diss was the greatest.

"you cant even sing and your no

"

Probably the worst live hip hop show I have ever seen tho......

ju-ju was on my friends show via the phone a few weeks back. i think they're getting him into the studio, but still was dope of him to hit off some logic through my boys cell phone.

beatnuts = best skate video music

[and that's obviously not the only thing they're good for]

i remember years ago when [i think] 411vm had Do You Believe in it to someones part and i went nuts for that track. i put that right after 9th chamber, and You Came Up on my little walkman skate-mixtape.

Here are some pictures I took of them at the 2001 C.M.J. Music Festival Hip Hop Showcase at B.B. King's in new york.

What camera do you use? I like those pictures.
