Seems to be quite "taboo" round these here parts.

This is True Hip Hop, by the way.

Listening to that Hip Hop is to Rap as

Heavy Metal
Death Metal
Doom Metal
Speed Metal
Black Metal


Hip Hop sounds more upbeat, and the raps are always in the same lyrical dance, Young MC could have stepped in their at any point and said "Ok Smarty, go To a party" and not sounded out of place. I like the play they do more with beats with uh.. "rap" if this is hip hop.

Didn't like the Beasties when they first came out but over the years they have really developed a great sound IMO.

Aw yeah, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back was a great album.



I wanted to go see Public Enemy when they played at Manchester years ago when I was at college but I was advised against it as some white kids got taxed and pretty much stripped at a London gig before that.

Taxed? I knaar what "taxed" means, an all. Well, that was their own fault. No sympathy for weaklings, personally. I thought you Yorkshiremen had summat about ye, eh? If any C*nt trys to take summat from me then they better be good, and they had best bring an Army, otherwise....game ower.

Agreed aboot the Beasties though, eminently DOPE.

Yeah it was the same thing when I tried to go see Public Enemy when I was stationed in Germany in 1990, went with some friends hoping to get some scalper tickets but it was a real rough crowd (surprisingly) and we got second thoughts.

Also agree about the Beasties.

One more favorite:



Wu Tang was about the last of the Hip Hop sound for me, after the mid to late 90's the Hip Hop sound became commercialized and lost me... much like my love of Techno, the music I still listen to it is frozen in time from the 90's biggrin

Agreed, Kludge, but there are a few notable exceptions.

Taxed meant having possessions taken from oneself biggrin mostly trainers. There were spates of taxings in broad daylight in Sheffield main shopping street of the, self named I may add, Sheff Blacks taxing hip hop kids for their trainers and having their photos taken in case they contacted the police. No kidding.

I did meet a few from that 'gang' when I got deeper into the graf scene and they were not people you messed with, but I stopped going down that route before it got bad....

Agree about the Wu. When my then wife went to New York she came back with a Wu Tang t-shirt when you couldn't get them over here, was stoked smile
