Smurph Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Annoyed I missed Meth and Red. I was meant to be going on a pub crawl in Oban but had to cancel at the last minute, and completely forgot they were playing. Now can't afford to go see Ghostface tomorrow so that's a kick in the balls. And also can't go see Public Enemy. Woe is me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Method Man said he's bringing the full Clan next time he comes to Glasgow. Don't know if he was just playing to the crowd but that's what he said. Sorry to kick a man when he's down Smurph, but that was one of the best gigs I've been to. The full place was bouncing for the entire show. My thighs are still gowping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin M Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Ghostface was pretty disappointing to be honest, I'd seen him twice before and both times it was amazing but the sound in the Arches was duff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoyed the gig but wasn't anything exceptional. 6/10 for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Got this on 12". Top tunage. Met Blade at the Glasgow Art School a few years ago. Top, top guy. Hip hop'd out his nut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Got this on 12". Top tunage. Met Blade at the Glasgow Art School a few years ago. Top, top guy. Hip hop'd out his nut. Yeah, got it also along with a few UK gems like Hijack and Hardnoise and London Posse. Kudos to him for not selling out and doing what he believed in. There was real talent in the early nineties from the UK that most hip hop fans have no idea about, unfortunately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin M Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 There was a reissue program on a label called Original Dope 3 or 4 years ago where they released a handful of UK albums from that period (Blade, MC Duke, Silver Bullet, MC Mell'O', Ruthless Rap Assassins), would be great to see more of that stuff resurface. Unfortunately they never followed up with any more, not sure if the venture collapsed or whatever, it's probably not a real money maker http://originaldope.com/?cat=3 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I follow Huntkillberry on Youtube. I think that guy has every UK 12" ever released. I follow Hardnoise on Facebook as well. They occasionally sell promo 12"s, unreleased remixes and limited edition Hardnoise clothing. My 'Serve Tea Then Murder' 12" probably doesn't have grooves anymore from being overplayed to death. Gemini released some solo material earlier this year that you can hear on Soundcloud. http://youtu.be/uWProLM1CX4 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagfox Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Really enjoyed PE, first time I've seen them live though. Quite impressed by the support Hector Bezerk too! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange question, but did Chuck D mention Scottish independence at all? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McB Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 A question that I think (hope) might be relevant to this thread - I've got a mp3 of 'Running' by The Pharcyde from feck knows where, but I think it's ace. Is this representative of their stuff generally (i.e. if I like this track, might I like other stuff they've done?) and if so, where do I start? Suggestions welcome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that representative to be honest, I suppose the album it's from called Labcabinacalifornia is most like it. They only really had two albums of note, that which was their second, and their debut Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde which is generally considered a classic and is a bit of a sprawling masterpiece. It's a bit goofy in parts but has some amazing tracks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Strange question, but did Chuck D mention Scottish independence at all?Yup. He kept mentioning the 16th of September though. Word to the mutha fuka! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Yup. He kept mentioning the 16th of September though. 1407396451594.jpg Word to the mutha fuka! Aye I saw that pic and that's why I asked because the article it's linked to doesn't have him saying that quote. He basically says 'It's f**k all to do with me...no comment'. Re The Pharcyde - they're playing on 5th September at the O2 ABC in Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I'd really recommend everyone to check out Shad, who is a Canadian rapper from London, Ontario. He's absolutely fantastic. Flying Colours was one of the best albums of last year. The video for Rose Garden is great too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
