hip hoppas (well okay maybe this is just for x3)

[westkoast]

x3 (or anyone else intrested) there are some forums I am an admin at, http://www.the9elements.com/forums , that you should check out if you ever want to talk hip hop or just want to go browse.  Alot of good interviews and music is posted up there daily.

x3 I woulda told you on Google Talk but I uninstalled it.  No one ever uses it!  I think it will be Google's first flop.

Nah, I just ead an interview with one of the designers of google talk, they are taking thier time in developing it, they want to make it THE final IM choice.  what they have in mind seems to be going about that in the right way though, you will see it pop back up though after a while.

as for hip hop forums, yeah i will go check it out, sounds interesting.  Thought about buying the black eye peas latest cd the other night, listenned to it - part of it reminded me of the fugees - but still didnt buy it.  I have a couple of B.E.P. cd's and they never stay in my car long, ghet tired of the cds quick.  not saying they are bad, i think they ae hitting thier niche at the right time.  but I just think i will get tired of the cd too quick for me to waste money on it.   Then almost got the Kanye West cd, passed on that one to - love his music - but ended up settling on the new foo fighters two disc ( i was more surious about the acoustic disc and figured i would spend my money on that instead.)  I will get Kanye next time.

Funny you bring up B.E.P cuz we have a thread on that board about the new album.

As for the new Kanye, musically its really good.   REALLY good.   The amount of layers and time he put into most of the beats is a true work of art.  Kinda reminds me of how Dr. Dre lays down his beats.    Alot of live instrument players were brought in to play the pieces so it sounds great.  Production wise its a great album.  On the lyrics side, he has a few songs on there that are great as far as content goes.  Diamonds from Sierra Lione being one.....BUT the album is not one I am quick to put in.  Its alright but that Foo Fighters was the MUCH better choice.  Late Registration is a good pickup but not something that is worth rushing to get right away unless you really like Kanye.
