what the fuck is up with the clan these days? i'm pretty fucking white but i appreciated cuban linkz and liquid swords for what they were, which was some of the better music anyone was putting out for a few years in the mid-late 90's. method man's making deodorant commercials, rza's off in some bobby-digital self-indulgent kick, and they must have more members than the population of rhode island. i'm totally out of the loop, i'm white and hate the tribe and de la soul, i think the last disc i bought was the last MOP one produced by premier or maybe some mc solaar stuff because people rapping in french is somehow amusing to me. fill me in, my street-creds at an alltime low.



No shit jamesn, I feel ya on everything you said. I stopped listening to rap about the time Masta P came along, and don't even get me started of Puffy. The old Wu-Tang stuff is just well, "nothing to fuck wit." You know? Some Mos Def stuff is worth checking out IMHO, but it's nothing like hearing that old school stuff for the first time, hopefully you guys know what I'm talking about or had that feeling of "what the fuck is this? Never heard this before. Man, that's awesome," feeling as your head bobs. Keep posting jamesn, you have a WICKED sense of humor, LOL! Seriously, side-splitting stuff most of the time! It's tough, my 2 cents, as we get older we begin to see adolescence as a marketing tool (ala Almost Famous) or maybe these guys just don't have the talent! RZA in his prime, damn, the only one out of Wu I listen to know is Ghostface. It's like, west coast rap is too perfect, too pristine, whereas East Coast rap is messy, yet off the charts. Rhymes over the structure of the beats, it's like the beat can't hold them down or restrict them. I wish I could recommend some of the new stuff, but you know in any business (Porn/Hollywood/etc.) there's so much crap it's hard to weed out the good stuff.

Crap another rant, sorry, I should try / learn to keep things short and sweet. Too much education, it's bad for you. I guess I'll I'm trying to say is stay cool and be safe K.,C.,F., and J. I'll try and keep up with the recommendations.

P.S. jamesn, not trying to put you on the spot or anything, but just curious about some of your favorite films (porn/mainstream/otherwise). Bare in mind, even though I like the 2nd or autueurist cinema of the 60's and 70's, just wondering what suits your fancy, if you will. Bare in mind, as well, I like popcorn flicks (Dodgeball is a lot of fun, and don't get me started on Achorman, harious), and I'm not tyring to turn this into a pissing contest. You seem to be very educated, just wondering what pleases you? You seem to have a great taste in music. With all that has been said, I love "popcorn flicks" as much as the next guy, but always looking for recommendations (honestly, porn included. ).

Anyway, cheers guys, sorry for the bandwith charge Tony, if that even applies

S.
