For the past 5 or so days YouTube has recommended me videos of Lord Jamar talking about homosexuality while dressed like an Egyptian mummy. Trap goin' Hamunaptra?
Back in 2002 Westwood played a Freeway song which I'd never been able to identify. A couple of days ago I randomly came across it and it's not a Freeway song, but a Naam Brigade song he guested on called Early In The Game. YouTube commenters reckon it's a Philly minor-classic?
Call me Poo Man because two of my favourite random regional Rap song discoveries of 2024 are Hold Up by Pookie F'n Rude and Bestie by Pooh The WriteR.
Some bloke recently tried to tell me that Eric B & Rakim's fourth and final album was "a disappointment". Bruv, an album which contains Know The Ledge, The Punisher, Casualties Of War, Keep The Beat, Don't Sweat The Technique, Kick Along and What's On Your Mind shits on the lives of you and your entire bloodline.
You midlife crisis Rap internet guys who are out here pretending to enjoy Xaviersobased's music need to grow up and listen to some real adult-contemporary Rap like Yuno Miles.

Never understood why people didn’t like Don’t Sweat the Technique holds just as well as any of there other albums.
Pure torture not knowing the name of track played by Westwood. Thankfully the internet made it easier to ID songs.
How can anyone hate on Don’t Sweat the Technique?
Bloody people!
The 1992 best album's list in the Ego Trip book doesn't even include it 😡 This is a list which contains the debut albums by House Of Pain and Das EFX 🤬🤬
I'd go as far as saying purely as an album, Don't Sweat The Technique is my favourite Eric B & Rakim album. Supremely cohesive, consistently high quality and has some of the best songs Rakim has ever done in Know The Ledge and The Punisher (among others). It also lacks the weird instrumental songs I generally skip on earlier albums.
Eric B Never There.
Lord Jamar just came out as a flat earther.
YouTube keeps recommending me that shit too. Not even gonna watch it for the unintentional comedy lolz.
I remember the Naam Brigade album being p cool.
Jay-Z swaggerjacked All I Need from Naam Brigade.
R.I.P. KA
Wtf. Damn. R.I.P. Gonna jam that Dr. Yen Lo album in tribute.
RIP Ka.
Tragic news. R.I.P. Ka.
Had good taste in Rap too. Big fan of Jacka, Max B and TREE.
