All Slim Everything

What's your favorite NBA team of all time ?

Washington Wizards. Arenas is my favorite player of all time and he spent his best years in their roster. My current favorite is Orlando since Gil is now playing with them but I still care for the Wizards. John Wall is the next and better version of Derrick Rose. Mark my words!

Thoughts on Instrumental Hip Hop?

If you can choose one album and recieve the instrumental version of it only (ie. MBDTF, College Dropout, The Blueprint, illmatic, The Chronic) which would you choose?

Ever listen to Prog Rock?

Do you agree with this statement rather simple beauty than petulant sophistry?

What would you rather listen to a generic brag track about a man bumping uglies with his lady friends, or a song about a man rapping metaphorical conundrums using an extensive obfuscating vocabulary but has little to no musical merit?

Do you think you can acheive ultimate music nirvana by listening exclusively to Hip Hop or do you think there are some genres that offer thing that Hip Hop lacks and is a totally different experience that you can't gain if you listen exclusively to Hip Hop?

Do you like these set of questions?

If you kill a pregnant woman does that count as two murders?

Least favorite music genre?

Ever listen to Siah and Yeshua? There a duo that dropped a gem The Visualz, but vanished off the face of the earth probably cause of the damn record labels. They rap over jazzy beats and work with a variety of flows, mixed with extensive wordplay and form a coherent duo.

Ever listen to The Beatnuts?

What do you think of rappers with gimmicks?

What do you think of rappers with gimmicks?

I haven't listened to any but some instrumentals are so good that I don't need an MC to rap over them. On that note, I have couple of instrumental versions of well known Hip-Hop albums and I love the way they sound. However, I think I'll get bored of it real quick because vocals bring the tracks to live. So yeah, the replay value is a rather big minus.

Illmatic. In my opinion it is the best produced Hip-Hop album. It was the first time that such a great group of producers worked on the same album and secondly, the production was very coherent yet all the beats have different vibe and mood to them. You have NY State Of Mind which paints a perfect scene for a serious street storytelling song (Papoose ain't got shit on me); Life's A Bitch has that jazzy feeling and a bittersweet mood; Halftime is a boom bap braggadocio banger (Blackalicious who?); The World Is Yours is excellent for a more serious i.e. poetic storytelling; Memory Lane gets the mood back to a mellow one and you can't guess it's a Premo beat; One Love has a great melody and it's a perfect fusion between raw and soft; One Time 4 Your Mind, as you have said, has a great slow pace and it's very nice to chill to; Represent brings us back to a less poetic storytelling vibe; and It Ain't Hard To Tell is the perfect track to finish the album and it's another braggadocio beat but now on a more crisp tip i.e. without a deep bass-line. So yeah, it's like a great essay with perfect introduction, main parts and conclusion.

Can't say I do.

Yes, and it's basically another phrase for the less is more concept. And this reminded me of all the females that put too much fucking make-up.

Probably the first option, if it has a good beat to it. See, the reason why I have more guilty pleasures than the average Hip-Hop fan who is an English speaker is that I don't perceive the lyrics in the same way that you do. I can choose not to pay that extra needed attention and therefore overlook stupid similies, metaphors and lines in general.

Not something that is of a big importance to me. And only thing that comes to mind is that Rock and Punk have that "coming of age" vibe, and are great genres to get drunk to.

Yes.

Considering abortion is legal, I don't think so.

Turbo Folk. You don't want to know.

Nah.

Some of their albums have been on my wish-list for a while. But as of now, I only know them as producers.

I'll answer that a bit later (can't promise you an insightful one though).

What'd you think of HTS and what's your favorite tracks from it ?

I'll give my well thought opinion in 2-3 weeks. That's why I didn't say much in the official thread. Above The Law is my current favorite though, I can give you that.

How do you feel now after the "Ask me a question" trend have (apparently) died ?

It's all good. Now I only need my exam session to die and after that I'm back to posting more.

Exam session, but I'll be back at it in couple of days.

Nah, but it's a very good one. Big L killed it as usual and Fat Joe was decent as well. It's one of the nicest songs on the album.

I can't give you a straight answer, mostly because you know that I'm not into MCs whose style is based on rhyming, but from those that I've checked out: Big Pun, Em, Kool G Rap, Big L, R.A. The Rugged Man.

He's excellent and one of the most consistent rappers. He has a great voice and knows how to combine multies and storytelling in a great way. Favorite album is SlaughtaHouse and favorite songs on it are Jack B. Nimble and Ain't U Da Masta.

That's hard. I'll name one of my favorite lines from three of my favorite artists:

I knocked out so many teeth, the tooth fairy went bankrupt.

I don't rap to get the women - fuck bitches; give me a fat slut that cooks and does dishes.

I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death.


I barely care for politics and when it comes to elections I vote for the lesser evil; whatever that may be. I think that the concept of government is fucked up by default. Not only that it comes down to couple of people deciding for the whole country, but we also don't get to elect the ministers, judges and things like that.

Well yeah, I'm doing excellent at college and hopefully that will result with me having a good job. Girls come and go, I'm having plenty of fun with all the secondary things out there so I can say it's relatively good.

Nope.

Judging off Aquemini and ATLiens, the only albums I have, they're dope. I like all the speeding up in their flows and their whole style has a comic book effect to it. Favorite song is Elevators.
