it was pretty crazy, baking in the sun for 10 hours, we managed to get into the second section (very front section was separated from the rest by a barrier so they didn't get crushed by everybody behind them). Saw a couple people collapse from heat stroke or something, definitely a shortage of water (for 3.50 a bottle 😲 )
These groups were truly skilled, Supernatural and Rahzel were the MCs for the day. Supernatural currently holds the world record for freestyling, at over 9 hours straight 🤣 It was something else. Plus, who doesn't love being in NYC 😛
dats just evil, forcing u to choose between brother ali and black star. dis year everybody's on one stage.

I don't think you can classify things as good or bad >_> but I understand what your saying.
I like Lupe Fiasco, I listen to him almost exclusively rap wise. XD; I just like him a lot. (Well that's not true, I listen to others but he is the only rapper on my mp3 player.)

That said I'm in love with 50 cent. ;_;

I don't mind telling you but it's just fangirling. Nothing to do with hip hop or rap really.

Ugh, everytime i even see 50 cents in change I'm reminded of Ayo Technology and how horrible it is. But the music video is HAWT.

I haven't listened to much rap... not for a looooong time. (Don't care for 2 quarters, Kanye, not even Eminem... Jay-Z's okay, I guess...). Too many rap artists are too self-absorbed, use too much profanity, don't have much substance, and have limited... ... ... well, I'll just leave it at too self-absorbed, too much profanity and not much substance... Nonetheless, the list(s) that some of y'all gave seems to be worth looking into. Thanks y'all! 😀 I think I'll check out some of yer picks!

Jam master Jay helped him make power of a dollar and eminem and dre helped him make get rich or die trying, his two only decent albums.
@tonigobe: Kanye, Eminem, Jay-z, forget how they/the media present themselves, they put their hearts and souls into their albums, u want substance? let the albums represent them.

Just Jack
The Pharcyde
Afroman
Astronautalis (This, too; I couldn't decide...)
Gang Starr
Michael Nhat (Note: Way, way better live.)
k-the-i? ?? This one blows me away each and every time. Incredible. "The lost shallows just too dope: Kollidoscope."
Everlast (The obvious song choice. So be it!)
I noticed an Astronautalis mention earlier in the thread. To that person: Props. Astronautalis is the good stuff. And he somehow improves on his already incredible music live.

nothing against u personally, but mentioning lupe and common in da same breath as wayne...
Carter I Carter II saw a Wayne at his best, then he contracted what i like to call the mobb deep syndrome and started to dumb down his lyrics.
