Well the Houston rap scene is about the best in the nation as far as im concerned. I lived there for a few years and I cant really get into east/west coast stuff. Devon the dude, UGK, SPM, Rasheed, Lo-G, Screw, Scarface there is just to many to name. Anything from www.dopehouserecords.com or www.swishahouse.com records really.
For non south rap, I like dayton family, trick daddy (miami), E-40 (thats just the way it is) and quite a few others but thats the main stuff.
E-40 is dead his last good song was Captin Save'em
Devon the dude is good I used to listen to him when he was a member Odd squad. I don't like Spm. Scareface is a legend.
You should check out the Oomp camp they are atlanta undergound rap. They are probly the best underground rappers you can find. Try looking for Dj Jellybean, he is probly the best Dj their is. He will talk a song, swith 3-4 beats in that song and make it sound tight. Pastor troy is probly the best story teller as of right now. I can talk to you about music all day long. Try to download some mp3's of Oomp camp you might like it. I use Audio gaxlay and they had alot of Oomp camp.
What p2p program you guys use to download your music? I'm tired of KazaA and Morpheus with all their pop-ups, and Bearshare doesnt have enough users to download more obscure songs... Enlighten plz~
so young, so angry...
damn that rap music
I used Audio galaxy. It worked good for me. Me and my brother would download probly 30-40 songs a day. but a bulk of my mp3's came from Napster. God I miss Napster /cry .
I don't use kazzA or Morpheus b/c I read somehwer when you press that EULA thing. It says somewhere that the company is allowed to sell your name to other people and shit..and a whole lot of other crazy stuff. I can't find the artical.
lol Aneeluv I was thinking that same quote lol
I dropped KaZaA maybe a month ago because of the pop-ups and all, but mostly becayse of the spyware. I found a program called KaZaA-Lite that uses a dummy file to replace the spyware. It tricks the KaZaA servers into thinking that it's the original file. It also excludes pop-ups, which is God. It does have built in banners say on the main 'Home' tab page, but that doesn't bother me much because I only use the 'Search' and 'Transfer' tabs anyways. Check it out: www.kazaalite.com.
Hey! Take that back zagzal!
Linkin Park is now SUBURBAN WHITE BOY RAP METAL TECHNO
listen to just one of the reanimation songs and you will see what I'm talking about =/ they are pathetic except some of their songs have good lyrics
Linkin Park sucks up the ass :mad:
Kazaa is anal all the way around, still shitloads of pop-ups. You guys should check out WinMX, fucking ownage. No pop-ups whatsoever, millions of users, fast, easy to use.
WinMX
I just go to the local record stores here (Future Shop, or A&B Sound) with a big hockey sized equipment bag, fill it up with CD's, and walk out of the store. Works great, no download time, or spyware, and since I wasn't going to buy them anyway, they aren't losing money.

YES, that is all.Quote:

Are they trash?
I have nothing against Rage...great guitarist, even if most of their lyrics are fucked up. The rest mentioned, though, and the many more just like them can rot in hell.
Take away Zach De La Rocha and Rage Against the Machine becomes something completely different. Zach always sounded like a really pissed off 15 year old kid to me.. Never liked what he was doing.
Tom Morello is a SICK and VERY talented guitarist. The rythym section of RATM is just as good. Great musicianship, but just got saddled with a joke of a singer. That all changed last year when they started working with Chris Cornell (Soundgarden for you who've lived under a rock). All I can hope is the stuff they did sees the light of day.
BTW.. downloaded a bunch of the TRUSTcompany CD. This is going in my CD player as soon as it comes out. VERY VERY cool stuff.
Apparently they stopped recording Elid, and don't have plans on finishing the album or continuing with the lineup. I didn't hear why though.
I think that if you give a listen to a lot of the stuff Zach said in his songs, there was quite often a lot of meaning to the song. I don't agree with a lot of their political stances, but some of what he/they say has merit, anyway.
I am not normally a fan of rap, or stuff that involves rap, but I have liked RATM ever since I first heard them. It's too bad the band couldn't get along any longer, they did make some pretty good stuff.I look forward to seeing what Tom Morello does in the future. I love the version he did of Another Brick in the Wall with Layne Staley and a few others.
Listen to Tom's work on One Man Army with the prodigy. good stuff
where's a good place to get trustcompany songs?
if you got yours of kazaa, then you got the wrong songs because all they do is repeat the chorus over and over except for 1 of the versions of downfall is correct
Trygrelan - I have every ayumi song in existance, that i know of anyway lol. The best thing about Ayumi's songs is not only are the orginals really good but there are hundreds of remixes for them all! :D I mostly like the trance mixes though, my playlist right now includes;
M (above and beyond mix)
surreal (dub's floor transport mix)
Hana (D-Z deadly rose approach)
and Unite! (euro-power mix)
One of my favorite jpop songs right now, though, isnt from Ayumi. its from a group called "Hal" (i guess thats the group's name, kinda odd name for the pretty girl who sings and is on the cover lol). Hal did a lot of remixes for Ayumi and probably other people too. Far Away (hal's 200 mix) was really good lol. anyway the one i like from her right now is called Violation of the Rules, if by some mirical you can find it lol.
Lexoon - is that a red version of Cecil i see dancing before me? FF2 = All time Classic. oh and i'm going to check out that program you mentioned, now that Audiogalaxy seems to be dead.
Eomer.. I was referring to the delivery more than the words. And rumor has it Chris is back in the studio with them again.
I use WinMX. It's very very cool.
Nah, it's a red version of Kain =D yeah WinMX owns, I recommend it to everyone k~
