[QUOTE="dezert_storm, post: 12445681, member: 23014"]Exactly...it takes a certain breed of fake and cowardice to diss a legendary MC like Rino. Im convinced that the realness and sophistication of certain MCs just intimidates weak minds like certain people in this thread. Theyd rather listen to Lil Wayne rap about downing sizzurp than hear some real shyt like this [/QUOTE]

For real brother, respect for your real words. You worded it perfectly, it takes a certain BREED of fakeness and foul disgusting individual to disrespect a good brother like K-Rino who is a Hip Hop legend an pioneer, like why would you disrespect him for? Unless you are a despicable devilish scumbag. There is just no need, it's anti righteousness, this goes way beyond music, no-one has to like the music, they can even critique it if hey want, but when you start having disrespect for a brother like K-Rino, that won't be tolerated without a rebuttal, and I'm certain there would be a strong rebuttal shall we say if this was offline, but as it's online the real people got to represent. It isn't just even solely K-Rino, it's all Hip Hop pioneers and legends, like show some fukking respect. All these brothers and sisters allowed Hip Hop to thrive and flourish, they have given so much to us, and scarified for us, they paved the way, and what people gonna try do? shyt on them? For what purpose? To troll and bait someone on a internet forum? That is an example of no morals of principles, or care, concern of love for Hip Hop. I would never diss a legend and pioneer without merit like that, should have some dignity when speaking on them. If we want people to respect Hip Hop, we should start respecting the people who REALLY are Hip Hop, I do and so do others, but some just have careless unnecessary disrespect and hatred in their heart, it's not productive at all, it's counter productive because then the world looks at us fukked up, and disrespects us in the past, present and will do in the future, if one doesn't respect themselves how can they expect to receive respect from others?. Yes no doubt, intimidation again is the perfect accurate word, that's what it is, some peo hate realness, substance and power, they get shook and project it into warped bitterness.

Also a classic song you posted, very dope and very real, many I'm sure could relate to that, K-Rino has some of the realest music of all time.

Thanks bro, spot on...I respect what you been doing in this thread, posting his songs and albums. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. I dont expect many of you to actually listen because it takes a stand up individual to listen to and respect Rino's artistry but most of your posts make it clear that your lacking in that

first time i've listened to this new album. the last shyt i got from K Rino was Alien Baby i think but i barely listened to it. last shyt i liked from him was one of the Triple Darkness albums but i can't remember the concept of those albums (triple album one was solo one was features and one was all storytelling songs or something).

i'll peep this album tho, might be good

Alien Baby is a borderline top 5 album in his discog...u might wanna run that thang back meign

No doubt, the ignorant ones are just not gonna listen, but the reason I started posting videos after they were trolling was so that anybody NOT a hateful disgusting troll and had some intelligence or objectivity could maybe check out the songs, and thankfully there have been numerous who have done just exactly that so that makes it worthwhile, even 1 person put on and at least that's better than nothing, but it's been a lot more than that, and it grows all the time, so I'm good with that. There has to be someone standing up for the real, and the real artists, and keeping it real regardless of what any bullshytter says. It don't effect me, I know what I represent and what side I'm on, I'm on Hip Hop's side, they have some devilish negative agent like agendas. I treat K-Rino with the respect he deserves, just like I would with any Hip Hop pioneer and legend. And even just people in general, if the shyt is without merit there's no need to diss someone. Many people have just exposed themselves as fraudulent in this thread, and some have proved they have some integrity.

You think? I will have to evaluate, he has so many dope albums I find ratings very challenging. What are your top 5 K-Rino albums then?

Now that i think about it...i'd probably say clear top 10 as opposed to borderline top 5...i'd definitely put Stories From the Black Book, Danger Zone, Worst Rapper Alive, Triple Darkness Vol.2, Book Number 7 above it & probably Time Traveler & Solitary Confinement as well...still a A1 album

Not Technically a "Doctor"
@The Ruler 09 you have done well my minion, now let me get the rest

*stares intensely into another dimension*

Metaphysical methods of nonphysical emital of lyricals
Spiritual visuals as I reside in shelters that are hospitable
You devil rat b*stards! Feel the master's black magic
I drag them in my black wagon thats decorated with black dragons
Black talons pull you in old taverns while I neglect new fashion, flabbergasted
I have puppets here, from my pulpit I pull strings, the puppeteer
You see they serve me well, as buccaneers we attack the devil's peers
Riding on angelic spears to pierce every one of you queers

*levitates and stage dives into customers at the register*
Known ledges and domes that have been wisened.:blessed:

I fukked with Alien Baby heavy personally, I LOVED the story in the title track too. shyt was so well done, with such charisma and masterful execution, really "the underrated genius of" could be a title for countless K-Rino songs, I don't think some fully comprehend he is an actual genius, there are many dope artists but few actual genius', K-Rino is a rare breed.



I like the way he's elaborated consistently on the Black Book concept too. It's dope, he actually has some of those rhyme books too lol..

K-Rino's body of work is truly phenomenal, also he is SO great and SO profoundly amazing as an artist sometimes some of his shyt has to sink in to you. I don't know if you will feel me on this, but an example is, when TheRAPeutic came out, I LOVED that album (still do) it was amazing, I made a thread about it on here too, think I called it the album of the year, on the SAME DAY (lol) Plantation Rebellion came out, and my initial thoughts bar a few songs was TheRAPeutic was far superior though Plantation Rebellion was good, but I now love Plantation Rebellion and appreciate it so much more. I think sometimes it's an overload of greatness so sometimes the listeners can become spoilt, this isn't even a reflection on them, it's more like there's so much depth, skill, artistry and greatness it's like an overload, some of it needs to marinate. There are many K-Rino albums that have grown on me a lot, and some I instantly loved. I have to say Danger Zone grew on me massively, I realize I'm late to the party as I didn't hear it in 95, MUCH later, so I had to go and do my research and really take in every album. I still need to play certain shyt more, like to formulate ratings and rankings and shyt like that.

This brother K-Rino is amazing, he is an underappreciated genius, and I could never disagree with anyone calling him THE GOAT, I could completely understand that and it's a great choice, I don't give a fukk what anybody says. He may even become my GOAT 1 day, we shall see. But point is he is a very valid choice. He is the lyrical GOAT to me though now.

I can't properly rank the albums at the moment or give a top 5, but these come to my mind....

Deeper Elevation
Deprogrammed
The Day Of The Storm (I loved this, it was an instant classic to me)
TheRAPeutic?
The Blood Doctrine?

See what I mean, I can't do this shyt, cause I've left Danger Zone out, and a bunch of others. I think cause the work is on such HIGH levels, on so many of the albums, rating accurately becomes a near impossible task. I need more time to evaluate, but by then he will release more and confuse my rankings even more lol....

K's delivery, flow and emphasis on multis :whew:


Wow... I heard this album when it first came out in 2009, it made me become an even bigger K-Rino fan, but I've been deeply sleeping on this track, that was incredible :ohhh:

I hope somebody/or more than that will rep you for me. I can't believe I slept on that shyt so much, I guess it goes to my points to @Iron Chin Wilder sometimes it's an overload of greatness and you need to let it digest, I heard that song in 2009, that's 6 years ago and I've got so much from it from just listening now, so many new things, I guess I gravitated initially to other tracks, and I gave them A LOT of play and maybe I just vibed to that track but didn't fully take it in. That shyt is DEEP, relatable and POWERFUL. That was like an experience, to hear that shyt just now.

Thanks :salute:

This thread. :wow:
47 Pages deep.

People keep saying different numbers, I think it may depend on the device you're on lol, I would guess you're using your IPhone?. I'm on PC right now and it's at 21, but I looked on phone briefly earlier and it was like in the 40's...
