He's never been the best rapper but he's got such a charismatic voice and tons of energy he was so engaging to listen to. Him and Frank Ocean the standouts of the Odd Future gang. As mentioned earlier, Earl has ability but the recent stuff is very hit and miss. Shoutout to Domo Genesis for his appearances on Piñata, one of my favourite hip hop albums of the last decade.

cosanostra Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Frank Ocean - Blond is an insanely rare record. Not exactly my sort of thing but from what I've heard, it sounds okay. There are only about 1k legit copies and 20k bootlegs and it's never been repressed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the Gibbs and Madlib combo works really well. Madlib and Fourtet have announced they're releasing an album together. No idea what it will be like as Fourtet has never done hip hop, but is an incredible producer in his own right, so could be interesting.

Been tanning through the Wu Tang back catalogue (solo and groups) for the first time in a while in the past week. So much good stuff. Forgot how incredible Supreme Clientel by Ghostace is.

He's talented but he's not using it. Going by a couple of tweets from Alchemist the other day this looks like it could be happening Would absolutely love to see Earl on an Alchemist-produced album, absolutely ****ing love it.

Locky Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Reports that MF Doom passed away. I hope it's wrong. I've been listening to so much of his stuff these past few weeks, I sincerely hope this is some hoax or some sort of miscommunication. Absolutely horrific news if true.

Zico Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I don’t get upset often about people dying that I’ve never met but genuinely gutted to hear that Doom’s passed away. One of the greatest ever; never chased fame and let his music speak for itself. Incredible lyrics delivered like he’s not even trying. Glad I saw him live and glad I’ve got the records to listen to all day tomorrow. RIP Daniel, hope youre at peace with your brother and son. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zico Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Relevant lyrics from the man himself. Ever since the womb ‘til I'm back where my brother went That's what my tomb will say Right above my government; Dumile Either unmarked or engraved, hey, who's to say? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brutal. Madvillainy is one of the greatest hip hop records ever made. Add vaudeville villain, mouse and the mask, special herbs, operation doomsday etc and it’s all gold.
