Respect the effort to actually create content rather than just being an Akademiks parrot or glamorizing the likes of Top5
Thank you. Ppl on Coli liked when I reviewed Ice Cube's and Jeezy's early albums. I may start doing videos showcasing why these artists are so great.
@SoulController check it out!

Some of personal favorite Kool Keith records. So much can be said about Kool Keith, a true innovator of multiple decades.
One of my all time favorite songs, still play it regular. I remember being a kid and this being the first rap song I became aware of style and patterns. Not saying there weren’t others but it was the first song to open my ears to someone rapping unlike what I was used to hearing.
This is one of the most bugged out songs ever to me. It was basically all gibberish but still dope and hilarious to me. By this point in life I think I was in High School and deep in my underground hip hop phase.
Even though this was like a rerock of Kool Keith Housing Things, Motion Man and Keith’s chemistry was always great together. The energy and flows on this song always stuck out to me.
Just throwing this one in. The fact that after decades of rapping he still did his thing on a new joint with Zeelooperz continues to solidify his legendary status.

I hear you. But it's difficult to go through rap's classics.
I listened to Epmd, All Wu, Redman, BCC, then heavy into independent hip hop.
I had to revisit classics. Even late. I just bought and listened to Big Pun's Capital Punishment, Main Source Atoms, Common's Resurrection and De La Stakes is high in full this year. Deep notes and study. I heard tracks from all of those since they dropped but not the full works.
With Keith I own all his solo work since 1998.
I appologize for not checking Funk your head up in full yet. I will though.
I've been listening to hip hop since 1989 when I was 7.
I love hip hop, but honestly struggle sometimes with revisiting classics.
Even Ice Cube's early work I slept on.
And again it's not that I wasn't aware at all. I always knew tracks.
I'm talking about sitting down and taking album in full.
As a producer I take in alot. Things like ad-libs and placed sub bass excite me.

Kool Keith has the worst hip-hop album of all time FOH. I wish I could throw the physical disc in case at him including the laptop I listened to it on. Garbage ass nikka mane, I don't give a fukk about what he used to do, this new shyt is TRASH. How tf Coi Leray got a better album than you?
