[kj] OT: Fuck Hip Hop - well not all of it

[ade]

5 Boroughs was a grower for me (just like the new Prodge), but I
think they're right back there & I'm looking forward to the next...

Let's just hope it's only a year or two away - just like bl00dy KJ ;)

Don't forget Gang Starr & give me Bambam "Perfect Beat" anytime.

Paul's Boutique is by far one of the best albums in
the world. Fuck what all the smarty-pants naysayers
have to say about it. So what if it's practically a
Dust Brothers album featuring the Beastie Boys? It is
JAM-PACKED with ridiculous amazingness, so fucking
dense. Beasties still got it. Not nearly as good as
they had it, but 5 Boroughs is great.

Some other hip-hop notables: Grand Buffet, Themselves,
cLOUDDEAD, Cex, Buck 65, Bus Driver, Del, Company
Flow, Aesop Rock, Sons of Bazerk, Dalek, blah blah
blah etc etc.
