Absolutely AWESOME tracks...what hiphop should be. I've been thinking of throwin a mixtape together and would definitely like to collab with some peeps... If not...just to discuss records.<b,121<b,121<b,121Best advice about 'random rap' ...wait. I had been after a record, Poetic Menace, from Detroit for a long time and kept being the second highest bidder on numerous auctions, dropping bids at $300+. After a couple went on ebay...I finally copped a copy at $140. The random rap market is just...well...random...

Quote:Quote:<font class="post"1<b,121<b,121I have heard good things about this record but have yet to listen to it. You know of any place where I can gets a listen? Thus far that Legion of Doom group has been the best Philly hiphop in my opinion, but that 2 Kannon single is bonkers as well.<b,121<b,121Looking forward to this maocontent. I will be listening to it on the car ride/traffic jam back home from work.
