Er, yeah, Fletrejet, I did. I couldn't help myself. It was so catchy.
Hmm. Maybe I'm really not the one to be judging other white rap artists after all.

My previous car met an untimely end about 4 years ago. The CD in the stereo at the time was One Step Ahead... That CD has been in the player which is sitting on a shelf in my closet under the stairs since then. I do miss it.
Last week the chef at the restaurant where I work and I traded some MP3 discs. That album was on it. I'd say 1/2 of it is definite classic. I still could listen to tracks 2, 3, and 4 quite often.
And, to further cement my own dudness in some minds, last week, I also got a free copy of stakka bo. I haven't heard that record in 10 years. I was in Turkey at the time, and while I recognized it wasn't "good" music, I did enjoy it. "Temple of Consumption" has rattled around in my brain for the last decade. Having finally heard it again---man is it dated! And it's still not "good" music...but I'll listen to it once or twice more.

All cred has been overdrawn and refused.― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, April 20, 2003 5:07 PM (9 years ago)
wrong.
having just spent the evening ripping the cds into the archive i have to say that mc 900 ft jesus has me totally hooked in.
the love of noir atmoshperes, the love of 70s funk, the old school loops-n-rhyme, the random jazz explorations of the .. spider .. album ... the fucked up, out there vocal declarations .. etc
of course, this is all easy to dismiss, but i would say that no-one in 2013 and beyond will be given such artistic freedom by a major from hereon ..
hence making the mc. 900 ft jesus trilogy a bit of a sought after classic in years to come ...
if i am proved to be wrong : i care not.
i love this stuff ...

I asked my band's guitarist about him, and he says he's got a track with VERNON REID on it! Can anybody identify this track?― nickalicious (nickalicious),
until half an hour ago, i had no idea about this.but the guitarist was correct.
