I'm so out of the loop with most new music that I gave up. Now that I have four kids my time to actually listen is limited. There is some "must have" albums for me coming out this year or early next year including two from Public Enemy and one by The Roots. That Common album is very good thoug it got KO'd by a live PE one I got. I'll have to try and check out some tracks mentioned here if I can get my music downloading going again. Here's a couple of songs to look for.
"New Whirl Odor" by Public Enemy
"Can't Hold Us Back" by Public Enemy, Paris, and Dead Prez
I heard another one the other day but have no idea who it was.
As for certain posters who are ignorant, let them be. They obviously have no idea what they are talking about and only come off dumb when they try otherwise. If they can't respect us then they don't deserve respect back. Like KRS said back in 88, Hip Hop rules and they can't take it.
