Just saw this and decided to post up some very obscure albums yall might have never heard of and if u want a link just holla at me and I would provide it.

Aarophat & Illastrate- The Black noise lp 2009
This illastrate dude got some nice boom baps and aarophat is nice with the words too

Crooked I-Westside Slaughter house
Collection of unreleased Crooked I songs and freestyles,includes some slaughter house material as well(joints that came out b4 the SH-lp)

Khingz- From slaveships to spaceships
dont really know much about dude but he nice

percee p- perserverance
Hiphop veteran,dude's vocal tone is ILL.The lp was produced by MADLIB so this is off the chain.features Madlib,Vinnie paz,Guilty simpson,Diamon D,Chali 2na and Aesop rock.

Nonchalant-Until the day 1996
I am sure some cats slept on this back inna day,remember 5 o'clock in the morning,where you gonna be??? yeah thats it,album is good though.Yall should pay attention!! lol

prince paul-A prince amongst thieves 1999
Concept album by rap vet Prince paul of De la soul fame.

Young vaughn- the new school 2009
Dhubai based emcee young vaughn delivers a fresh package on this one,worth the listen.

Lushlife- Cassette city
Philly emcee drops his debut,single handedly crafted and features only Camp-lo. Yall should search for this dude!!

Budget is low mixtape- Various artists e.g. Kev brown,Oddisee,Seanborn,Grap Luva,Isaac jones,Kenn starr amongst others

Naledge- Chicago picasso
Solo lp by Naledge(from kids in the hall) features Jay electronica,Mickey factz,GLC. Got some nice cuts up in there.Peep "Cool,relax"(ft Jay electronica)

Wale and 9th wonder- Back to the feature 2009
Yeah,Wale dropped this after his 1st single "chilling",this lp includes the remix though(uses the same beat from Buckshot's out of town girls) and a lotta dope joints too.Features Talib kweli,Joell ortiz,Royce 5'9,J-cole,Kenn starr and K'naan(on the track Umricka)

Eternia-Its called life
Debut(not so sure) lp from Canadian rapstress..yeah she is WHITE too and can spit better than most these cats out there.A whole lotta boombap and insightful lyrics.Features Kenstarr,Wordsworth and helixx

yo teck, nice list

finally someone that listened to that westside slaughter house mixtape from crooked, one question, whats the original track of that 'slaughterhouse is a big deal' song, i need that song. Crooked I's flow is really octane, plus his boyz from horse shoe gang aint doing bad either.

i could use that black noise lp and the kingz album(slaveship to spaceships) bro if u can hook me up. :D

All those dudes on percee p's ablum are nice considerably, my problem with vinnie paz? his relentless anti-christian lyrics, dude's flow is advanced, but its really hard to listen to an hour long tirade against Jesus 4 real, thats the reason i stopped playing all his Jedi mind trick's albums with Stoupe "enemy of mankind", after Violent by design. Again, the dude is dope no doubt, but i'll pass. Both albums from Army of the Pharoahs was tight though.
I never took Kids in the hall serious but that naledge guy is nice with it.

I really think, Joel, Drake and Wale are going to bring real hiphop back, until they get rich though.


Some good albums i forgot to mention.
Hi Tek - Hi Teknology 2:The chip 2006(nice beats with nice guest appearances)
Hi Tek -Hi Teknology 3 -2007
La Coka Nostra - The Audacity of coke and A Brand you can Trust both 2009
Alchemist -Chemical Warfare -2009 (Alchemist hard slamming beats with Talib kweli, snoop dogg, eminem, blu, evidence, kool g rap and other mcees, definitely worth playing.)

Cant wait for Royce da 5'9's new album though.

No probs,I will arrange it.
The original song you asked for is by Clipse ft Kanye west-"Kinda like a big deal"

Other stuffs I got in my archive includes
Joell ortiz- bodega stories,brooklyn bomber and who the fuck is Joell ortiz..3 fucking dope mixtapes though some songs appear more than twice.
Median- Median's relief
Justus league affiliate Median's debut- production by 9th and khrysis.Dope ish all the way
Art of facts-Got their 2 lps.Some str8 up NJ boombap shiit!!
Kid Daytona- Daytona 500
This ep from Brooklyn newcomer Kid Daytona samples only Bob James-Nautilus on the whole ep!!! production by Double o(Kids in the hall),jet audio,6th sense,Ill bomb and the government.

Laws- Your future favorite rapper
I recommend this lp for everyone,I will even post it up for your to check.Nice flows,insightful lyrics and dope beats and concepts!! features Wale,Young chris,Bun B on 1 track(Searching),A must have I tell you

one Be lo- SONOGRAM
This lp from 2005 was and still is a classic.No bling bling,no shiny suits.Juts concepts all the way.This is also a must have

Jay Electronica- What the fuck is a Jay Electronica??
This is not an official release but rather a compilation of singles from Jay Elec.This dude is hailed to be the second coming of Nas without even being featured on a major label.Anyways his wifey is Erykah badu but besides that..This is ANOTHER MUST HAVE..I really mean it.. Peace

One Be Lo's SONOGRAM was coo, dude came through with Senim Silla on that Binary Star tip with their MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE release. Median is stinking too. Am also feeling the 'Strange Fruit Project' & 'Blu & Exile'.

Hey frndz.. i think.. dat ..Modenine's album titiled "Malcom IX" was the best album a lyricist could ever put to the table and despite it didnt really sell like it was expected to do but it was a great accomplishment for the artiste and also rank him amongs the world best mcs.

can someone get rid of that ad please^^^^


back to discussion, Masta Ace -the unsung hero of rap and Edo G released a new album -Arts and Entertainment, masta ace dominates with his spectacular flow of course but Edo is not bad at all. Krs one also kills it on the track he features on, definitely worth playing


Swollen members -Armed to the Teeth (2009)
New album, i'm still playing this, but i wish they diversified their 'kicks' on this album, its kinda monotonous but the beats are still banging though. Their lyrics are definitely above average.

Snowgoons -Trojan Horse(2009), if u played the previous albums, 'German Lugers' and 'Black Snow', then u'll definitely like this!!!, i like these german boiz, their beats are pure entertaining aggression. by the way, snowgoons are a pair of german producers who enlist the services of several underground rappers for their album, they did the same thing on the aforementioned previous 2 albums, this time around, theirs Reef the lost cauze, Viro the Virus(nice dude), Block Mccloud, Buckshot, Outerspace, Termanology(now this kid is wrecking Boston with his blazing big pun-like flow), Chief Kamachi, La Coka Nostra, Heltah Skeltah and a host of others.

NYOIL-Hood Treason (2008)
If u didnt listen to this album, ur missing out, nuff said.
