Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

[frodo-pkt]

J5 has two DJs though so I guess it rules them out?

He didn't say there was 1 DJ. Just that there is a DJ

 

[BattleFlag]

J5 then with DJ nu-mark?

Certainly points more towards J5 than Blackalicious. (Unless Chief Xcel does more rapping than I think he does......it's mostly Gab, no?)

Unless we're saying that DJs aren't performers?

Fair point.

Are there any other releases that fit this clue outside of J5 and Blackalicious? Beatnuts don't have a DJ in their ranks. I don't think Slum Village did either (Dilla left in 2001).

Blackalicious, one DJ, one rapper? I mean it still fits doesn't it?

DJ Eclipse ofc !

 

[Clint Howard]

It's not really a good clue at all as not only are most performers male, most groups had a DJ in them too. Like.. famous groups, EPMD.. everyone thinks of Erick and Parrish but it also included Diamond Jay and DJ Scratch. Likewise (although probably more known), Terminator X was a member of PE but rarely ever gets mentioned when talking about them.

Lil’ Jon was/is a DJ....

I would absolutely hate if they did that Lil Jon album for R&HH. Hasn’t aged well at all either. It was also pressed for RSD recently I think? Though that hasn’t deterred VMP in the past.

Y'all skeet, skeet, skeet, skeet, skeet, skeet

I was going to say this starts to point to VMP doing it lol.

And I still enjoy the album for what it is and in the right scenarios. But yeah, would be a terrible pick for the sub.

No way I would love to hang this next to Funkdafied on my Wall of Fame!

Wall of famously bad RHH picks?

I don't understand why Funkdafied isn't as loved in these parts as I have loved it over the years

 

[DevonJD]

has Non-Phixions "The Future is Now" been ruled out. I think it would fit the clues better than blackalicious, although I would prefer blazing arrow.

If blackalicious still fits the clue, then might as well throw in The High & Mighty's "Air Force 1" into the mix

Add this one to the male rappers + DJ clue.

 

[walkingdogs]

Any day now! Now just wondering who has the vinyl rights.

FROM THE WINDOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

 

[duke86fan]

i am liking the pressing of ISWYD

a single problem i have is that the sides end kinda abruptly... it feels like they are all segwaying into something else and its awkward

 

[Brotha52]

Might have already been suggested, and unlikely considering Rhymesayers regularly presses their own vinyl but.
