My favorite songs off of G.D.M.C

1.) Sing of me im dying of thirst

2.) Money Trees

3.) mAAd City

i have to say this album,, just puts mainstream hip-hop to shame. This album has been labeled a "classic" by numerous people and that doesnt happen for no reason.

the story-telling, lyrics, beats are just sur-real. still on an emotional high. hahaha

The album is a cinematic masterpiece, which has been applauded and raved about by even the most cynical critics (check out Needledrop's review at the top of this page). It's just one of those mind blowing debuts, once in a lifetime..

I wasn't in LA when game came out but for the 5 year's ive lived in Los Angeles i havn't seen ANY artist get as much love as Kendrick. I'm 100 sure that 20 years later we'll look back at this album and appreciate how a young artist on INTERSCOPE records released a certified classic and did 240.000 in one week without a dumbed down club/pop/bubbelgum song.

King Of The West.

Man, i gota be honest and say my man Meek Millz went half-way on his debut LP "Dreams and Nightmares".

the narrative seems to be same everywhere you look and that was my original thought process that Meek Millz has to do away with the features of Wale, Tray Songz, Drake and especially Rozay,, when he's by himself talking about his Philly Days selling coke and shit he "shines". The picture is clear and vivid and different when compared to the reular mainstream "sex, drugs, and money" which overwhelms mainstream hip-hop. XXL gave it 3 stars and most were around that area couple of 3.5's and such.

the best tracks by far are: "traumatized," "polo and shell tops" " "tony story pt.2" " and "who your around". other than that, im afraid to say.....it just "bumblegum rap" but he did show signs, he did show that he can veer away from mainstream crap, hopefully he goes all the way like K-Dot has (not that he ever did mainstream crap)

I'm still not over GKMC

Tracks that I keep replaying seem to be: Poetic Justice, Sing about me I'm dying of Thirst & Compton.

Words cannot explain how flawless this is:

I feel weird listening to Hip Hop being white. How is a white Australian boy from the desert supposed to relate to Illmatic?

Could you relate to the last movie you saw?, did you still enjoy it.. were you still dazzled by it?.. Precisely.

Illmatic is a conceptual masterpiece, high cerebral art.

The last movie I watched was infact a documentary about the town I live in...It was terrible, exploitive, sensationalised nonsense. I did not enjoy it, but I did laugh at a lot of scenes.

Besides, I never said I didn't like Illmatic, just that I I struggle to relate to most hip hop. Big difference. SO in the end your post changes nothing and was quite meaningless to me.

'You' are 'creating' the struggle, just enjoy the art form like you would for anything else.
