Hip Hop/Rap/R'n'B

I was happy to see that "3 feet high and rising" by De La Soul made list in the Age newspaper of the 50 most influential albums of all time (Must admit I can't remember whose opinion it was but I'm pretty sure it wasn't just one person's opinion).
Their follow up to that (De La Soul is dead) seems to have gotten better with age as well.

Hated 'De La Soul is Dead' when it came out.

Was probably too commercial for my underground tastes at the time ('Ring...' to blame for that.) LOL!

But it's every bit as good as '3 Feet High.'

However, the quality drops on later albums.

Just happen to be the albums that Prince Paul didn't produce.

Coincidence? I think not...

Did anyone see the Documentary on the CI channel on Foxtel called "Tupac and Biggie"?
Very interesting I thought.

Typical Nick Broomfield trash...

I felt that there were some very valid points and even if you didn't take any of it on board at all it still seems a bit odd that 2 of the best known rap artists were executed and both murders remain unsolved.
