This is Hip-Hop.

Good.

I don't visit this thread as often as I probably should for someone who claims to listen to all kinds of styles. I'll go wading through pages shortly. Just in case this hasn't been posted already, those of you that dig the J Dilla style of short hip-hop instrumentals should probably click the following link and get the album downloaded for free via the mediafire link included under the tracklist. Really feeling this.

Got the El-P gig in Glasgow tonight, yas. Been rinsing the back catalogue these past few days. This fucking instrumental, man:

Get Mr Muthafuckin eXquire on there, stat!

[esar]

You'll love the gig man, El-p smashes it.

I really want to see Mr Muthafuckin eXquire live! Does anyone know if he's got any tours planned?

[Calashnikov]

He actually played a handful of UK shows wayyyy earlier in the year, but he had no Scottish dates, otherwise I woulda gone.

Man, El-P and co. rocked it tonight. Someone should have panned that radge heckler's melt in though...

[Calashnikov]

I was in the bog when that guy bammed up Despot. Heard about it when I got back though. Gig was fucking amazing, I seem to recall, although I'm fucked if I can remember a single fucking moment Told El that I loved him, though

[Jonzo]

El-P's show at the Scala was insane, haven't been in such a rowdy mosh pit at a rap show since, well, the last time I saw El-P. Full Retard was such a rush, and Vital Nerve in the encore was just crazy.

C4C back to back works every time really well and the chemistry/humour between him and Despot is so fucking endearing.

Potential for gig of the year, easily.

Has this been posted yet? Zig Zag Zig video with the lovable R.A. and Rampage:

[Mentazm]

Immortal Technique is doing a UK tour and tickets just went on sale. I got 2 for ABC in Glasgow at a very cheap 15 quid each. Cheapest gig tickets I've bought in about 5 years.

[Camel]

Immortal Techinque was extraordinary when I saw him in Shepherds Bush a few years ago, so a definite recommendation.

[Camel]

Oh balls, he's in London when I'm in Japan :/

[Camel]

RA kills that track. As per.

EDIT: ffs, RA makes me feel asthmatic. Does he not have the need to breathe?

[crisy]

^This is brilliant.

Brand new Roc Marciano track from the next album:

[Mentazm]

Mikey Streets has a new project called The D.o.T. First single features Danny Brown. The tune would be fucking excellent if it wasn't for Mikey ruining it with his shit singing and a crap dutch synth line.

[Venice Cull]

55-minute mash-up mix that combines the vocals of Fat Lip, Bootie Brown, Imani and Slim Kid 3 with the original samples used in ATCQ’s musical resume. Begin your instinctive travels now…

I really like Riff Raff. Like the dude is a complete hero to me. Its like he was designed in a lab for me to like. I think he may have been?

[Calashnikov]

Aw man, this is brilliant:

That blend is gorgeous. It's all about the MICHAEL, though!

[Bingowings II: The Revenge]

Going to see El-P tonight.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSS!!1!

[Calashnikov]

Pharrell back on that golden Neptunes sound:

Didn't realise he was still making 'em like that.
