Thread: To Boarderline

No no no no no.

The artists you reccomended to me, sorry, but no.

M-Pulse -- Is this a techno or house DJ? I do enjoy Jungle and DnB, but if this is the group/dj you want me to listen to, they sound like a Daft Punk Knock-Off

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis - I gave wings a shot. The best thing I can compare that song to was Atmosphere or Brother Ali rapping about a pair of Air Jordans. Totally not the content I'm looking for.

STS wasn't too bad. I liked the production on the couple of tracks I listened to, but the cat that was rappin' just didn't do it for me.

I don't think you understand the stuff that I'm into. I don't know if you check out the What are you listening to thread, but here's a few tracks to give you an Idea. I'll do one per post. But to start off, since today is Jay Dilla's birthday, I'll post this:

I'm really digging the stuff coming out of the South East right now.

I always thought that Will Smith held Jazzy Jeff back. Oh, and J-Live kills Eminem every time.

This was one of the best mixtapes of last year

Rap is terrible. How can you tell one shitty artist from the next?


It's all just opinion of course. Hell, there are people out there that think ABBA is the greatest band ever. Shit, I can't stand the Beatles. Music is much too subjective to even argue who's better than who.

I agree, but without debate like this, you have less of a chance of discovering an artist you might like. For example: I hate metal, but I love Antherax, and I would never have found out that I liked Antherax without Public Enemy doing a song with them. And I have tried listening to other metal artists, and I just don't get Metal.

well I guess I was wayyy off on what you would consider dope.

and M-Pulse is a rapper just not widely known by anyone outside of Chicago.

but hey high five for even checking them out.

since I just seen this thread, i'll go in my archives and pull up the music from similar artist I think you might like from the artist you threw up on here.

What do you guys think of Madonna?

Sorry, tink...I haven't done it in a while.

i'd do her

liked that j.dilla beat you put up. the dudes rappin (slum village?) sounded average to me.

9th wonder beat was aight nothing special.

liked the sample that was used on that jazzy jeff track, it was nicely used. As far as J-Live?? never have heard of him

i've heard Elzhi before but nothing really jumped out at me.

I can see your into that late 80's early 90's hip/hop or anything that resembles that

let me see what I can put up that I like and you MIGHT as well

Drake, Phonte, Elzhi produced by 9th Wonder
