    Didn't see J Cole (is out already?) or Dre's D-Tox

    Both mentioned at the beginning of this thread, looking forward to those two more than anything this year. Also have to mention 'The R.E.D. Album' which I'm hoping will be here before the summer.

    If boring pop music is what you are into stick to the new DRE ****. On the other hand:

    The new 'Madvillain' will conquer all.

    Waterford's 'Sons Phonetic' are dropping some dirty **** on '12 Labours' featuring the one and only 'Rira'!

    Shameless Plug!!! Im doing a full length release to follow up to my debut EP 'living proof that the pen is mightier than the sword'
    Get it FREE at www.spekulativfiktion.bandcamp.com

    Peace!!!

    Mate, you're actually signing up to a message board just to say Dre's album will be ***** and we should listen to you and your mate from Waterford instead?

    Can't take you seriously now...

    Good luck with the rap career though :pac:

    There are a few albums expected from Rhymesayers this year.
    Atmosphere in Feb
    Grieves & Budo are releasing an album called Together/Apart
    Rumours that Brother Ali will be dropping something too.
    Blueprint - Advetnures in Counter Culture in April

    Rob Sonic Aesop Rock and some other guy have a group project thing that is finished and should be released soon. The small bits i've heard have been great.

    The Random Axe album is finished and ready to be released.

    Along with Sims' Bad Time Zoo, there should be a P.O.S album later in the year and hopefully a Cecil Otter/Lazerbeak album.

    Sam Sneeds album was an utter disappointment. Only about 4-5 songs were worth keeping. The gulf in class between original Death Row material and todays stuff was shocking.

    There was two great songs: U Better Recogonize and Lady Heroine. Both of which had been bootlegged for years.

    Disappointed to hear that, but kinda expected it. U Better Recogonize and Lady Heroine appeared on Soundtracks back in the day, Murder Was The Case and something else.

    Oh they were officially released? I thought they just came with the other unreleased tracks that were released on a bootleg.

    A member on a Tupac forum I moderate on contacted Sneed and explained how the fans felt disappointed that there was only four tracks from the Death Row era. This was the response.

    Sam Sneed January 11 at 7:41pm Report
    SO SORRY ABOUT THAT BUT WHAT THEY ALL HAVE TO OVERSTAND IS 1. AT FIRST I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT MY FANS JUST WANTED TO HEAR ANYTHING THAT I WAS DOING UNTIL I FOUND OUT LATE IN THE GAME. YEAH I HEARD SOME SAYING THEY WANTED TO HEAR THE OLD ALBUM BUT I ALSO HEARD A LOT OF PEOPLE WANTED TO HEAR WHAT I WAS DOING NOW. 2. SOME OF THE ORIGINAL MATERIAL FROM 96 WAS MISSING, THE SONG WITH SNOOP WAS ONE OF THEM. OTHER PARTS ON SOME OF THE OTHER SONGS WERE ALSO MISSING AND TO DUPLICATE ALL THAT WOULD HAVE DEMANDED TIME THAT I DIDNT HAVE BECAUSE I HAD TO TURN IN THE ALBUM QUICK, A MONTH FROM THE TIME THE BUDGET WAS CUT. THATS MY FAULT BECAUSE I COULD HAVE JUST GIVIN YOU ALL THE ORIGINAL UNCOMPLETED MATERIAL AS IS MIXED AND MASTERED 3. I WILL ALSO TAKE FULL BLAME FOR ALSO WANTING WHAT IM DOING NOW TO BE HEARD. 4. NOW IF YOU ALL STILL WANNA HEAR THE REST OF THAT ALBUM PUT TOGETHER PROPERLY, SEND A REQUEST TO WIDE AWAKE ENT. WHO SHOWED ME NOTHING BUT LOVE AND THEN I WILL DO MY BEST TO DUPLICATE THE REST OF THAT ALBUM THEN EVERYBODY WILL BE HAPPY AND WE ALL CAN GO PARTY. LOVE YOU ALL ONE LOVE MY SCHOLARS!


    Pity that some of the material was missing. The song with Snoop he's talking about is Blueberries. A real nice G-Funk track.

    Raekwon has 2 album this year, Shaolin Vs Wutang (tracklisting and coverart have been released) and Only Built For Cuban Links III.

    Ghosty is releasing Ironman 2 and Supreme Clientele 2. Not sure if they are this year.

    Liquid Swords 2 is also supposed to be coming this year.

    EDIT: Liquid Swords 2 may not be this year, GZA is amking another album first that should come out this year.

    Here's a song from it, listened to it about 5 or 6 times in a row now.



    That's mint. I never really paid any attention to Reks in the past. Is it worth checking out some of his older stuff?

    Grey Hairs and More Grey Hairs are decent. I wouldnt call them classics but there is defintely some great songs on them.

    The new Copywrite album is actually nice...
    Very surprised I liked it.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,092 ✭✭✭Le King


    That Copywrite album is distinctly average. The High Exhaulted was his best piece of work and even that was an incredibly poorly put together piece of work.

    New Saigon album is ridiculous!

    I also have a stream to Pharoahe Monch's new album, don't know if I'm aloud put the details here, but I'm 3 tracks and it's pretty damn good!
    "Calculated" is probably the best rapping I've heard from Pharoahe since Internal Affairs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,092 ✭✭✭CiaranMT


    Madlib has a new album out, get it off Boomkat.
