The Official "Ask dead prez a Question" Thread

[dead prez]

Well my life's relatively mundane, not shitty mind you, but it's pretty predictable and boring as of late, and nothing out of the ordinary that would pique your interest.

In terms of secrets, well you know what my NF account is, and the only other one who knows it is TJ, since he saw my picture, lol.

Share, umm, listen to Maybeshewill, if you want a great Prog Rock experience.

And if your out of music recommandations check these guys RYM accounts.

I get your question now, uhm, well I have an inferiority complex that makes me tend to overcompensate at times for things that I generally don't have a knack for.

Holyshit...Zephos has so many albums on there I've never even heard of...I'm bout to go ham on filestube using his list.

You should bring him here, I'd love to see him debate the entire Eminem Section on why he thinks Recovery is the 33rd best album of last year

[dead prez]

LOL, yeah he's banned from his other forum though, for some time now. He trashed Relapse even worse, and doesn't think SSLP-TES are the best albums of their respective years.

Isn't Death Is Certain considered Royce's best album? This guy would piss MC off soooo bad

64. Royce da 5'9"
Death Is Certain (2004)

Why this guy is loved in certain circles is beyond me. Dude is mediocre as hell, an an emcee in both lyrics and delivery, and the production he gets isn't much better (again, except for the token Premo track). I mean come on, this is so boring. It's not gangsta-pop but it's still pretty lifeless and yawn inducingly cliche hardcore rap. Like a No Limit album from Detroit, yeah I went there. It's color by numbers, and I'm sure Royce is trying hard, but all he amounts to is a generic hardcore nobody.

[dead prez]

I like this review better, funny part is, he's quite the controversial poster as well. That could hold his own.

Royce da 5'9"
Rock City (Version 2.0) (2002)

Royce is an old associate of Eminem's from his Detroit days, hailing from the same area, and representing the same midwest hardcore rapper scene. I wanted to like this, I didn't. Royce gets off one good shot with the Premo assissted "Boom", but otherwise I found this completely boring. Really lightweight hardcore hip-hop. Ghostface needs to start holding classes, people have forgotten how to do hard right.

Rating: 2.5
Highlights: Boom, Who Am I

It seems like you've gotten your Hip-Hop taste from him

[dead prez]

Yeah he influenced my taste a lot, before I found out his RYM account, I only would bump Nas/Jay/Em/Big/Pac/etc.

[classthe_king]

I'm pretty sure everyone went through that phase

[dead prez]

I still find it hilarious that he put DIC below Encore.

[classthe_king]

That's the worst insult there is

[dead prez]

On the real though, I'd love to see him debate the Em section as to why he feels Relapse is trash, Recovery is the 33rd best album of 2010, and that Eminem's best albums aren't the best albums ofhis respective years. It would be amusing as hell, he's also a great debator, I'm a member of the forum that he's a prominent member off, but he got banned recently. I never actually talked him though.

Excuse me if it seems like I'm riding him, lol.

[Master Chief]

I still find it hilarious that he put DIC below Encore.

That's how know the guy is a complete moron.

Out.

Do you like Atmosphere?

Whats your favorite album/song from them? Explain why.

I never gave them a proper listen, but from what little I've heard, I wasn't really liking it. I know that Slug switches up his style just about every album, so there probably is that one album that I'd like and it'd be the bridge for me to listen to more Atmosphere. I'm a fan of POS, so I could probably like Slug's material if I really took the time to listen to his shit.

I wanted to keep it to 5 people each side but if you want to add an extension and answer for

Maybe vs. Block

I haven't witnessed Maybe debate all that much, though I've seen him trash Macdaddy and Sla beyond belief. He's very witty, though Block's much more argumentative from what I've seen. It'll probably be dead even.

Xray vs. Zu

feel free.

Xray is more argumentative in that he can drag a debate for a few pages, and Zu doesn't seem like the type that would really drag on a debate for pages (though I haven't seen him really debate, so I could be wrong about this), if he's knowledgable about the subject at hand, he could probably end it in a few posts.

If you get the chance to meet one old/banned member, who'd you meet ?
From James R to Coleon to Anonymous to 4D, only ONE.

Don't really know about this place's history, but probably James R. to see if he really acted like Satire. I could care less about the rest, and have no idea what their history is like.

[MikeNUFC]

Are you religious?

Insider vs Base?

Funniest TR insult/comment?

When do you plan on leaving TR?

If you were admin what would you do? Who would you ban?

Favourite smiley?

FreeSpeech & EminemBase vs. Block & Satire?

How many times do you search your name on here for an ego boost?

[KillahBee]

Are you a fan of MF DOOM?

In your view, who would you say is the most innovative producer? (of all time, right now, at a specific period, whatever one you want to answer)

"MMLP (or TES, whichever you prefer) is the best hip hop album of the 2000's", agree or disagree?
