The retirement was ages ago, there has been two albums since then. Jay at his worst is still better than a lot of music out there.

American Gangster was as good an album as there was last year.


Totally agree, American Gangster was a vast improvement on Kingdom Come - but then again that was utter shite.

Not feeling the Jockin' track or the Champion video at all.

On a side note has anyone heard Ice Cube's new album? If so what are your feelings toward it?

Forgot how good College Drop out was

So many qoutes so little time. Kanye isn't orthodox in terms what I look in a rapper but I can easily say he would be in my personal top 10

::)

I really hope you are not saying that Eminem has shit lyrics. He is definitely the opposite of all mainstream artists as he is a fantastic lyricist but his beats are fucking shit (mainly because he thinks of himself as a producer when he is utterly useless at creating a different sound)

Yeah, I am, if that is alright with you.

Not to say all his lyrics are shit but stuff like Ass Like That and Shake That are shite of the highest order and a far cry from the Marshall Mathers LP, his best work to date by a country mile showing that slowy but surely his work has dropped off to where it is now, the lowest it has been sinced he pressed a thousand copies for his hometown.

He is in there with all the other mainstreamers for me when he releases stuff like that and as a side note shows yet again the only artist to successfully crossover being Ghostface.

Whilst Eminem continues with tracks like those above he will be a long way behind in the lyrical content stats when compared to the likes of KRS, Immortal Technique, Braille and I could go on.

It's actually grime, but the JME-debut is pretty good. Pre-tty pre-tty pretty pretty good.

Hardy har har. That is fucking ridiculous. I agree that Shake Like That and the other bullshit that came out on his last album was pretty awful - but dear god - Eminem will never be compared with Immortal Technique? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

In your mind maybe and good for you. It's about different tastes. There is only one great album there and that is Marshall Mathers.

Laugh at Technique all you like but lyrically he is always spot on.

Em is a better MC but for consistency of lyrics over the years Technique is there and the likes of KRS just shit all over him.

Fair enough - to each their own

But Eminem would murder KRS in a battle  ;)

Have to agree with CLA eminem is a dope lyricist and defo one of the best yet, hes fell off lately but before his last LP he proved himself to be able to mix it with the best.

On another note, has anyone heard the next episode 93 by snoop and dre on youtube? if not get on it because its dope as fuck, beat is boss and snoop shows how good he was back in the day with his delivery...the track was left off of doggystyle because dre raps on it and his contract was strictly producin apparently. The quality isnt that great because its a rare copy so i dont think its mp3. Its boss though.

That is the Stryderman and the remix with Wiley. Enjoy ;)

I haven't got LAX yet will wait until the dirty version leaks hate clean versions and hopefully a group rip with a nice mix down aswell by the time I get around to downloading it.

Cheers Inf, been hearing this loads on 1xtra over the last 5 or 6 weeks and kept meaning to get it.

If you do wait for the dirty version, it'll be well worth it. I wanted to do the same but got to tempted - not disappointed though, Game is my favourite MC over the last 5 years I would say. Massive Ye fan, but Game just shades it for me (not comparing them in ability terms, just how much I enjoy the music).

Hip Hop came backl alive for me this month, with the release of Nas Untitled album.

Have been a big Nas fan since Illmatic came out (putting up with some shite from him along the way) but this is more like it. Back to the storytelling and the smooth beats.
