Didn't know ILM hated the Roots so much

President Keyes, Friday, 3 June 2011 19:01 (fifteen years ago)

yeah well I grew up an hour outside NYC while rap was getting born so I know the dominance was unquestionable for a long time

other regions have risen up in the past 10 years, it's interesting to see how NYC rules even now

and yet tim dog still didn't place

xps

I strongly believe the only ppl who listen to the roots voluntarily are critics who get sent their albums for free

the rest are at guantanamo, being tortured

President Keyes, Friday, 3 June 2011 19:04 (fifteen years ago)

<3 the roots, dunno if i would have voted for them on here though, illadelph maybe.

WHO THE FUCK READS THE (a hoy hoy), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:04 (fifteen years ago)

I think the only ppl who really REALLY dig The Roots are other musicians

low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:04 (fifteen years ago)

I should do a crazy ass singles ballot, you know the rapping duke will be top 10

I would likely have voted Things Fall Apart had I gotten my shit together

low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:05 (fifteen years ago)

tbrr the only thing REALLY wrong with this poll in a "that should not be there" sense is DJ Shadow but since that gave me a great lol I don't mind

low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:08 (fifteen years ago)

, it's interesting to see how NYC rules even now

NY hasn't produced a great rapper in 10 years

(Nicki Minaj being the possible exception - too early to tell really)

I voted for illmatic, I would vote for it a million times. I can't even say how important it is to me.

brodie to the max (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:28 (fifteen years ago)

common being better in theory than reality because in reality he's kinda dull shockah

WHO THE FUCK READS THE (a hoy hoy), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:29 (fifteen years ago)

My mom hired me to paint the garage the summer that illmatic was out, I was p bad at painting so it took me forever. I listened to illmatic over and over imagining queensbridge. Who was ill will? Who was cormega? It felt like a whole world existed inside your headphones.

brodie to the max (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:33 (fifteen years ago)

fuck that hoy hoy Common has one classic album and it's way better than Black Elvis and Hell Hath No Fury

President Keyes, Friday, 3 June 2011 19:34 (fifteen years ago)

Tracks reveal is gonna be FUN FUN FUN FUN

i was pretty much resigned that Genocide & Juice or Steal This Album by the Coup weren't going to make it--but go check those out everyone. Treat city.

But, seriously, "Life After Death" vs. "some 'grime' album" is no argument that any grown man should engage in.

yeah i'll still think it placed in the top ten and go ape shit.

Bert Macklin, F.B.I. (thebingo), Friday, 3 June 2011 19:49 (fifteen years ago)

"Me & Jesus the Pimp" probably the best written rap song of all time, or close second to "Fats Cats and Bigga Fish"
