j0rdan do you think t.i. has not been killing shit since he got out of jail? if you do, then I think it's fit for me to declare that we have a disagreement on the subject of whether t.i. has been killing the shit out of everything since he got out tbrr

love that Big Boi reps for Texas Pete

Yeah, this is great. Vonnegutt sucks, though. Love "Tangerine" and "You Ain't No DJ" and "The Train Pt II" a lot. Then again, I thought "The Train" was one of the best (and only good) songs from Idlewild.

yeah i think he's been average on street ish and embarrassing on shit like "hello good morning" but he sounds great on the mary joint imo

I agree with Rev, T.I.'s been killing it lately. Even on the Drake track!

this album is brilliant. and i agree w/rev, t.i.'s been killing shit this year, though i haven't heard the mary j track.

he pretty much always sounds sexy tho!

T.I. is good on "Hello Good Morning". It's really nice to hear all these T.I. joints on the radio all of a sudden since he's been missing for a moment tbh

I should probably actually listen to this album, huh

it goes w/o saying that rick ross on "hello good morning" >>>> t.i.

what, no

t.i. >>>> nicki minaj >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> rick ross's terrible verse that i have to actually fwd past every time now

tip's whole verse is invalidated by saying "i'm the captain of the cool kids"

no surfboardso but ross has been dropping hot guest verses/remixes all year

like what? "hello good morning" and that k michelle joint are the only ones springing to mind and he's not good on either of them

hello good morning, o let's do it, angels (is that 2010?), all i do is win (remix)

also he wrote diddy's o let's do it verse which is the best on the song

i haven't heard the "o let's do it" remix because for some reason i just didn't find "feat. diddy and rick ross" all that tantalising a prospect

which "angels", the dirty money one?

can't really remember anyone on "all i do is win", don't like that song much in the first place

yeah i thought "all i do is win" rmx was really boring at first but i hear it all the fucking time down here cuz khaled works at the big rap station and i've actually warmed up to it -- ross, nicki, busta, jada, fat joe all have pretty good verses considering

his two angels ones are awesome imo -- wish that beat was a rick ross song and not a dirty money song, even tho i can get into it in the right mood

diddy has a fascination with ross -- i really do wonder if it's some perverted biggie thing -- they've been on 3 songs together this year already

ross mugging in the background while diddy robocroons his verses in the "angels" rmx video is really a treat

the original "angels" has really grown on me but i can't imagine what fatass rick ross would add to it

dope verses namely

last train to paris
wheels look like a ferris
your jeweler should be embarrassed
rick the ruler my moolah produced the karats
let's bow our heads i gave you something to cherish

~~~diddy's autotears~~~

I haven't heard a version of "Hello Good Morning" w/ Ross or Nicki, or any of these other remixes you guys are talking about so

I mean obv I've heard Diddy's "O Let's Do It" verse from his epic youtube vid

lord forgive me i'm talking oatmeal in the winter
talkin leather interior, oak wheel in the center
my nigga deal coke, still into opium
condominiums in the center of ethiopa

diddy's thing at the BET awards was the only one that was even remotely good

T.I. is good on "Hello Good Morning". It's really nice to hear all these T.I. joints on the radio all of a sudden since he's been missing for a moment tbh

i remember when i first heard "welcome back" on the radio, it was so nice to have ma$e back, i welcomed him

TANGERINE IS THE SHIT

even through my crappy PC, this album sounds awesome. i love the soft 70s sounds that bubble up through the disc, e.g., the organ in turns me on.

Ridiculously anticipating this, I had no idea it had leaked.

kudos to him for http://twitter.com/Therealbigboi/status/17314033140

will do so on the strength of this

liking this a lot tbh

t.i. >>>> nicki minaj >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> rick ross's terrible verse that i have to actually fwd past every time now

omg seriously lex my good man seek help for your nicki stanning syndrome, there's universal health care in the uk right?

oh and this album is just fantastic.

goddamn goddamn goddamn
considering how much I had built this thing up in my mind, I'm amazed it lives up to expectations.
Add in Lookin 4 Ya, Ringtone, Dubbz, Royal Flush and Something's Gotta Give for the full experience
might buy this out of solidarity
THAT MEANS I HIT THE HEAD LIKE GREG LOUGANIS THEN I'M SPLASHIN

honestly between this and the dream album I have been swept up in

i don't even think her verse here is amazing or anything, but i don't think it even counts as stanning to say that nicki minaj >>>>> rick ross even in general terms

really? i feel like you would recognize the power of BAWSE!

it took me a while but that big fat fuck sorta got to me

I know it's entirely the point, but I want to hear a full length version of Feel Me

i don't dislike officer rawse, he's done stuff i like, but he's just solidly there at his best, i don't really care about him specifically

"daddy fat sax" is so great

love the scratched samples on the hooks...i wish there was more scratching in hip hop

dl'ing this now but would happily pay for it if I wasn't uh totally broke

I kinda hate Rick Ross tho

I didn't care for "Shutterbug" much last month and preferred "For Yo Sorrow"; now I've switched my vote.

the album makes me appreciate shine blockas more too, that intro is so euphoric and the effect is even better listened to in sequence than after loading up a youtube video or whtever

wow this is really fucking good. maybe a little too busy/cluttered in a couple spots

Some of this does sound cluttered, especially when the beats, rhymes, and life rush in to fill the gap between one of his patented two-syllable elongations ("wo-MAN"), and Janelle Monae's equivalent in 2006 would have sounded just as blank as Monae does in 2010. But this is muscle-flexing at its most winning

yeah i like this, it's like bursting with energy, musical ideas, amazing rapping, perfect antidote to drake's narcolepsy

I've tried to articulate those points in that past and failed. I will probably be referencing and/or copy n pasting that post for many years.

Really the Tongues only started getting preachy in 96 and even then not all of them.

And even then it's of the jaded, hectoring variety, not in the earnest, wideeyed way of say Arrested Development or first album Digables.

Stakes is high is a pretty preachy album. I know a lot of people think it's the best De La album but it's where they fell off to me.

could be argued that nearly anything else comes off "preachy" when pimp/thug/dealer amorality is your baseline for realness

The Native Tongues don't really exist as any kind of group or movement by Stakes is High

at the time the criticism was that they were soft and flaky not preachy fwiw

Yah i know

well i know u know

i was addressing "the thread"

did u know i knew too?

eye know

well played

lol

Haha

The Native Tongues don't really exist as any kind of group or movement by Stakes is High

uh iirc ACTUALLY they were officially reinstated on Stakes Is High

but i mean...like you saw the tribe doc how much bad blood there was....you think everyone was like kicking it and shit and working on each others stuff like the old days?

Big Grams, the quicksilver collaboration between six-time Grammy Award®-winner Big Boi, and the groundbreaking genre-bending duo Phantogram (Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter) have completed their self-titled studio debut, BIG GRAMS. The eponymous 7-song collaboration will be released September 25th on Epic Records.

BIG GRAMS marks Big Boi's first official release on Epic Records, since signing with the label last year. Phantogram and Big Boi collaborated previously on a handful of tracks from Big Boi's second solo album, 2012's Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors, namely "CPU," "Lines" and "Objectum Sexuality," the latter also produced by Phantogram. Phantogram have released multiple EP's and two studio albums, which have produced two Top 10 alternative hits, "Black Out Days" and "Fall In Love." The duo is signed to Republic Records.

BIG GRAMS TRACKLISTING
1. Run for Your Life
2. Lights On
3. Fell In the Sun
4. Put It On Her
5. Goldmine Junkie
6. Born to Shine f. Run the Jewels
7. Drum Machine f. Skrillex

dunno about this

I bet the Skrillex song is better than it should be

Objectum Sexuality

is this a Tool album

Big Objectum Sexuality f. Bjork

someone goes on adjective timeout

if nothing else this is gonna prompt me to listen to both big boi albums today

pretty good tbh

I'm feeling this much more than anything I remember from the second album

yeah i was meh about the phantogram tracks on vicious lies w/ the exception of "lines," which i really liked

on first blush, it's solid

like both on their own but got bored of this halfway thru

well it's no Kate Bush collab but it'll do

Lol I never did check out the second album cause it seemed so conceptually flawed and I was never as hot on the first album as a lot of people were but this is cool. Phantogram's 2000s hiphop vibe works for him.

First Big Boi album is so solid front to back. New single with Adam Levine is a little WTF but I have faith for the album in general

What do we think of the new one? Snoop, Kurupt, Killer Mike tracks solid.
