Theres a fella on youtube by the name Troy Smith who has been uploading both his and other peoples recordings of late 70s early 80s jam sessions and throwdowns. We are talking early raw hiphop.

Check it:

Da Brat has been ordered to pay 6.4 Million clams to the hostess she he in a head with a bottle; the incident happening nearly four years ago.

Pretty certain this means J.Dupri's phone will be ringing off the hook for the next few days.

Anyone else consider "Changes" by Tupac a shining example of what progressive rap/hiphop has the potential to be? One of the best rap songs ever written, in my opinion.

it's a great song. It's tough to speak fairly on it myself. I feel like I've heard it soooo many times that it's lost a slight bit of oomph to me. But at the same time, I'm never sick of it either. And I feel like it's one of the songs where every line is quotable.

My favorite 2Pac album by far is Me Against The World, which I feel similarly about to the bulk of the material on that album. If we're talking singles, I think that "So Many Tears" is probably the most brutally honest one he released:

"Disillusioned lately,
I've been really wanting babies
so I can see a part of me that wasn't always shady"

I mean, remember he was like what? Early twenties when he wrote that line?
