I dunno, I just checked out that Wale dude on myspace, that nike boot song is not all that good. Yea, its sorta catchy, but its not com or mos, none of that. I really been getting into the roots though. Blackthough is ridiculous. I saw a freestyle of his on youtube that blew me away.
I don't know about you but I liked the nike boots song, the version with lil wayne was surprisingly decent as well. I like WALEDANCE the most though. Maybe his go-go influence isn't for you. I hear it gets repetitive, but I like it.
Edit: I concur with the Black Thought, well erm thought. He is very ill (also Wale's favorite rapper).
I see some love here for Black Thought, right the ***** on. Be sure to see The Roots live even if you're a casual fan. Its a damn near unbelievable experience. Not that their studio work is lacking at all but live is astonishing, no joke. Currently bumping some M.O.P. and some Black Moon.
Aaah, lovely to see that even in these days there are good releases. Super dope production by polish duo The Returners on their album called Global Takeover with mc El da Sensei. Anyone with me on this one? Highly recommended!
Dunno if it's been mentioned here, as I didn't read the whole thread, but I'm lovin' the Foreign Exchange album Connected. It's Phonte from Lil Brother and Nicolay, a producer from the Netherlands, I think. Nicolay's solo album is nice too. Just thought I would share, lol. Definitely check them out if you haven't.
not sure if its been mentioned in this thread yet..
but Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde and Masters of the Universe by Binary Star are two of my favorite albums ever

I saw him live and met him in person!
Such an awesome guy and gees, it went off!
He definitely lives up to the live part in his name.
Not many can MC and DJ at the same time and still make it sound so so good.
