Boostin' Kev Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 (edited) Puting my money where my mouth is as always. Real Saints will say he's heard all these before but he only pops up to sound really bitchy complaining about wack getting mentioned in a hip hop thread.

Pabst Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 You watched that Stretch and Bobbito doc yet? Haven't seen it myself. Yes - it is amazing from start to finish. So many nice interviews and footage - Fat Joe and Busta on great form in particular. We saw it at the Picturehouse with Stretch & Bob introducing the film and then doing a Q&A with the audience afterwards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabst Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 New Kendrick is sounding great. Very tight and focused; as much as I loved TPAB, I found it pretty sprawling and, at times, messy, with some of the skits and songs meandering off into all directions - not necessarily a bad thing, but doesn't make the album an easy listen (perhaps that's the point) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was masterfully structured throughout, although I didn't quite realise that on first listening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostin' Kev Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Had a look on Google and it came up with that. We don't get those kind of occasions in Edinburgh unfortunately! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabst Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I never tire of rewatching the BBC hip-hop documentary 'Bad Meaning Good' every once in a while. It's still brilliant. Scary to think it's gonna be 30 years old next year! Amazing footage of Westwood at Kiss FM when it was still a pirate, as well as Run DMC, London Posse, Brixton Academy (those whistles!), Groove Records in Soho etc. Look out for a young Trevor Nelson! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Liked Griselda Ghost and Hitler Wears Hermes from Westside Gunn last year. Listened to George Kush Da Button by Smoke DZA, but not much since then. Didn't realise the new album had dropped now, I was looking for it a few weeks ago after hearing a couple of 2016 tracks that had been put up on the net including the one you posted above. I'll check it out later, cheers. There's a Daddy-O interview on Juan Epstein just been broadcast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabst Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) Loved all the Hitler Wears Hermes albums, and his stuff with The Purist etc., but I tend to think WestSide Gunn works best alongside his bro Conway - vocally they've got a nice contrast. There's something about WestSide Gunn's voice that kinda grates if there's not another rapper alongside him for a bit of variety.

Boostin' Kev Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Haven't listened to the new Purist/Westside album yet, saw it came out last month, will have to check it out, always like The Purist's productions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
