Hold up a sec!  Dr. Dre knows how to hook some shit up smoothly, but
it seems that if and album has enough expletives in it, then its phat.  I bought
the shit and the only thing that has me bobbin my head is G thang and the
cut with Bushwick Bill on it.  The other shit is hooked up sweet but it dont cut it.

The problem with us as a people is that we cant stay united for shit!  Even all
the groups are breaking up now.  EPMD breaking up!  What the fuck next!

Down here in Houston,  the radio stations are pumping The Unseen by the 
Geto Boys.  PHAT!  

Willie Dee is a dumb ass for leaving the group.  I aint like his ass no way.  
His solo effort gets no props.

I think the song is OK, but not all that.  I don't see the gangster comparisons
at all, but it sounds too much like ATCQ bite of a style, both musically and,
Q-Tip wise, lyrically.  I listen to the song, but wouldn't buy it.  The song
does make me interested in their upcoming album though.

Just some info I've recently read that some people may not know about:

On the, "Where Have They Been," tip...

SuperLover Cee & Casanova Rud, who dropped the single, "Romeo," on
Mercury/Polydor back in '91 (which I thought was fat), have signed on with Wild
Pitch Records.  We should finally see album #2 from them soon.

Flavor Unit Posse member Chill Rob G, also on Wild Pitch, should have a new
album out this year.  Some production will be done by Diamond D., who's album I
finally picked and and agree with the net... IT'S FAT!

Your's and My favorite old schooler :), Just-Ice has not hung up the mic yet. 
He has a new album coming out in February/March on the Savage Label, which
looks totally independent from the ad.  No word on producers.

I just read a review of Digable Planets album, titled _Reachin' (A New
Refutation Of Time And Space).  What's up with these titles lately?!?  Anyway,
the think that stuck out was: "The first single, 'Rebirth Of Slick,' is
representative of most of the album and finds the nouveau-hipsters kickin'
ethereal codes of peace, tranquility, humanity and being 'on the one.'"  Take
it for what it's worth.  I don't put much stock in mag reviews anymore, but the
mag did like it.  BTW, the rappers, coming straight from NYC, are Butterfly,
Doodle & the female is Mecca (Lady Bug).

Someone mentioned this group to me before (sorry I can't remember your name),
but the DJ Muggs/Soul Assassians' group FunkDoobiest are ready to drop and the
first single is, "The Funkiest," on Immortal Records.  Rapper SonDoobiest of
the group can be heard on House Of Pains' album, on the cut, "House Of The
Rising Sun."  His style reminded me of Das EFX w/o the diggedy diggedy stuff.

Saw an add with the album cover of Brand Nubians' _In God We Trust_.  Now if
could only see the album on the store shelves... Ditto with Heavy D. & The
Boyz' _Blue Funk_...  For all those that forgot (yeah, right!), A Tribe Called
Quest's new album is tentatively titled _Midnight Mauraders_ and is slated for
*early* 1993.  We shall see....  I think that is all for now.  I can't remember
anything else.  Oh, BTW, My vote for dopest cut on the Diamond D. album is,
"K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid)."  Love that beat!  ... And I'm Out!

After seeing a lot of people write about this album, I decided I would buy
it too, which I did some days ago. First time when I listened to it, I
thought it was wack too, but if you give it a chance it grows within you.
Grows VERY, VERY slowly, but grows...Someone here mentioned that this album
was better than Cubes or something and that is just crap. Cubes album is
really much, much better. What is annoying with Dre's album too is that
high-pitched signal in the background of most of the tracks...

My 2 cents...

What is happening to hip hop?  I've never seen this many break-ups of good
groups in hop hop at once *ever*!  I heard about Nice & Smooth, and EPMD, if
this is possibly true, is not that big of a surprise.  None of these break-ups
are really that big of a surprise.  I'm just waiting for Treach to get the
confidence to leave NBN.  I think some of these groups had better watch what
they doing though.  Nice & Smooth are cool and I liked both their albums, but I
always ranked them as average for the most part; my opinion only.  Seeing both
of them go solo... well, I can't.  The sound of Greg Nice and his old school
flow along with the smooth voice of Smooth B. is what made me like the group. 
They are so different, they bounce off each other perfectly.  Alone?  "I don't
think so..."  As for EPMD, somewhat the same may be said for them.  They seem
to just complement each other so well, and I really can't see listening to one
solo song from either one of them.  I think brothers need to sit down and
communicate and straighten things out.  I didn't think EPMD's last album was
all that (IMHO, the worst of the four), but you still always have high hopes
for them nomatter what.  3rd Bass, Public Enemy, Nice & Smooth, EPMD along with
eventuals like Slick Rick... all on Def Jam/RAL labels.  I wonder what Russell
Simmons has been paying them with?!?

Sounds like they're hiring people away from the networks, who have been
killing great shows for the last three years by moving them around to a
couple hundred different time slots.  What we ought to do is organize a
movement to have local cable companies scramble the MTV signal until they
put Yo! on at a decent hour.  We hip hop folk gotta stand together.

Yeah! Glad to see other people have seen this movie!  This blows away ANY u.s.
made films of this kind. Pure violence.  Don't you love the part where Victor
'cleans up the mess' of dead bodies by piling them into the bath tub and
pouring acid all over them.  Classic.

No. I don't advocate violence, just good films.

While in L.A. over break I caught a billboard announcing King Tee's new album
that's due out within the next couple of weeks.  It was a huge billboard
placed right over the Crenshaw wall (of Boyz in the Hood fame).  I can't
remember the name of the album.

Possibly a cut he did while making demos or promos that didn't come out on the

I asked myself the same when I sat down to watch it some days in a row and
the shit didn't come. So I check the newspaper (MTV-Text is just shit!) and
what do I see? They have moved it from 18:00 CET (I think this was the old
time) to 03:00 CET. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT! Fab 5's show on saturdays is
stil on the old time though...don't ask me why this has happend :(

That reminds me when I did happen to catch it on on Friday in the states it
was just before Fab 5's show, so if you know when that is on just watch the
hour before, also I'm not totally sure on this but Ed and Dre might've made
some comment about don't look for us any other night.  I guess MTV's support
of non-mainstream is dwindling as much for rap as it did for metal and
alternative but hey that's just 5 more times a week you can see the latest
Madonna video (*puke*)

No, that was K-Solo on his first album _The Fugitive_. (i think that's what it
was called).  The Hit Squad rappers do sound alike, so I can see why you
thought it might have been Redman.  In the year-end special issue of _The
Source_, one person said that _one_ of his Top 5 Albums of the Year was
"Redman/K-Solo/EPMD" because they sound almost the same.

Are you kidding me? That song is crrrrrrazy fat! I never thought they acted
like wanna-be gangstas (but I didn't see Living Color either). I think that
they're just pumpin' fat beats like the Brand New Heavies.
