@beatstreet The beat juggle over Ooh about 45 seconds in is immense!

@teajaygrey Man, it looks pretty awesome to me. D Styles is the DJ I want to see more than any other, so would be all over it. Would be curious to see Amon Tobin too. You guys are spoilt for regular quality live shows out there.

@An0n It does, think it stands for "not on normal courtyard excercise" based on when peodophiles were in jail. Not sure it's a thing in the US though, but a bit awks....

Been listening back to this a lot recently. I think people overlook just how good #IceCube was when he left #NWA. For 1991 he's spitting some dope political rhymes with real venom on a par with Chuck D. The beat is amazing as well (dope #BBKing #sample). I remember first hearing it in #BoyzInTheHood but it wasn't on the soundtrack so didn't even know until a bit later.

@Stoat Yeah P Diddy is like the cheasiest s*** ever, but kinda suits him. Imagine suggesting that amongst your mates back in the day...they'd have laughed you out of town! Never really thought about White Child Rix, seems worse now than back in the day.

What are the worst emcee and group names in #HipHop ? For me it's gotta be Shorty Shit Stain (like, what the f***) and for a group, The Nonce (maybe a UK thing).

@beatstreet It just illustrates how important and influential these dudes are within the DJ culture. Mad that so many styles and techniques came from one crew! #turntablism #Qbert #SkratchPiklz #MixMasterMike

The best #Soul album of the past 40 years for me. If not what's better?

@hiphopnews This is one of my top Old School albums. It just has such a bounce...I always dropped a track from this album whenever I deejayed out back in the day! #Hiphop #PeteRock #CLSmooth

@hiphopnews I'm not down with this. Using someone's identity after they've passed just seems disrespectful and 'commoditises' their sound, style, etc whilst disregarding the art, inspiration, creativity and hard work that made the artist great.
AI has the power to remove many mundane and unfulfilling tasks and give humans more time to explore and create, but instead it is being used to sap and sanitise creative industries whilst the proles work and struggle!

@greymatter Is it the Gza Liquid Swords show with live band? If so, wow! Would give my right arm to see him live and performing THAT album!

2023-05-19

@greymatter Looks and sounds dope. Who ya rooting for, Lakers or Nuggets?

@hiphopnews Possibly a top 5 producer for me, at least close when you look at that list. #QTip #Beats #Production #hiphop
