nas - dope
cube - dope
game - sucked, but he did release some great tracks, just the album as a whole wasnt to good.
cham - mixtape is good



but thats just mainstream.

Game and Nas albums were great. Game's maybe better.

Cube's album I didn't even checked, just only two songs from it.

TOS sucked a lot. Hopefully that 50 Cent's new album going to be good, because I might just buy it, if it's not a new Curtis.

^It was'nt racisme, well some parts did sound a bit harsh but you can hear clearly in his lyrics that he wants a world were every single person can live in peace... So no, it isn't racisme..

So far I'd say 2008 is terrible.


And to those who plan on flaming me for saying Nas sucks, well I don't appreciate racism... not from a white guy, or from a black guy.



i aint goni flame, imma just say i dont take it as racism, the only part i think its truly racist is the guy from first poet speaks and say "you are only a nigger by acting like what the white world truly considers a nigger"

that pisses me off coz he says "white world" im white and i dont consider anyone a nigger i dont have a sterotype for a nigger and i dont use it as an insult, i have no affliation with the word and i dont think anyone is a nigger , so by sayign white world its sterotyping all white people and that pissed me off, other than that i thought it was a dope album

Nas = great lyrics, bad beats mostly = good but boring album... cant listen to it for more than once every couple of months or so.

Game = good lyrics and good beats, so its album of the year for me.

Cube = only a few good songs, mostly shit to me... i expected much much more :n:

So overall bad year :n:

i haven't heard too much from this year.
But i liked a couple of tracks from "Ras Kass", though i didn't really like any other songs on the album.
And i really liked the album from "Reks" named "Grey Hairs" and i liked Nas's "N.igger" album too. i think Mr.Hyde had something come out this year too, if not oh well, but if so, it had some good tracks, well the ones i heard anyway. he's rly twisted, lol.

Bliss N Eso - Flying Colours and Ice Cube - Raw Footage are my favorites right now.
Ras Kass, The Game and RZA had some pretty sick songs, but that's it. And Strange Music Artists are releasing some dope albums. Like Tech N9ne - Killer, Skatterman & Snug Brim - Word On Tha Streets, Prozak - Tales From The Sick, Grave Plott - The Plott Thickens ....

That's all i can think of right now. :)
