Re: Mos Def, Talib Kwali, Ghostface and more 11/1/05 - Santa Cruz
Slug's never not been about "women scarred me".
Atmosphere's live show is awesome. The huge population of 16 year old white girls at said show is not awesome. I love Atmosphere, but I tend to hate their fans. And Ghostface is amazing and Talib is horrible.

I saw Organized back in the "Stress" era [/ QUOTE ] You sir, are my hero. [bragpost] I saw Aceyalone on the Balls Don't Bounce tour...[/bragcrap] but yours is more better...2x awesome rappers. As a hijack...Does being in a group (remember that ? rap "groups"...) diminish the individual greatness of rappers? If you were to make a top 10 greatest rappers list, wouldn't it be hard to put say, a certain member of the pharcyde on it, even though their first album would easily make the 10 greatest records ever? Individual awesomeness > group efforts (?)

Re: Mos Def, Talib Kwali, Ghostface and more 11/1/05 - Santa Cruz
I'll be at their show in SF on Sunday.
Ghost does not suck, but I haven't seen him live, and am a little skeptical of his live performance. Talib's live shows are usually not great, but not really bad either. I am hoping that Mos and Talib together put on a great show, and Pharaohe is sick as hell (is he signed yet?). Jean Grae is probably the sickest female lyricist around.

Pharoahe has always been signed. [/ QUOTE ] Actually, I am pretty sure that he was basically a free agent after Rawkus folded. From what I hear, he was (and maybe still is) in talks with Shady Records to sign to Denaun Porter's label (Runyon Ave, I believe). All of these talks were going on around the end of last year I think, and then I heard there was supposedly a bidding war going on, but I never really heard whether or not he signed anywhere. But from what I heard, it sounded like they were all but waiting for him to sign the papers (to Shady/Runyon Ave), but then I never heard anything after that.

Pretty much all of Overcast is not about that, the Dynospectrum isn't like that, and most of the first "seven" tape isn't like that. Granted, I even liked the opening days of the emo-Slug, but now it's just repetitive schtick. like I said, they definitely rocked it when I saw 'em.

[ QUOTE ] don't follow, clarify please. [/ QUOTE ] It's pretty self explanatory. Nas doesn't have a good performance at concerts.
