Damn that was a slick performance. Stay Down is still my favorite track on C4C. Love that trombone. Woo! Definitely my favorite beats on the album.

Man I thought this was posted days ago, we're slippin. I seen it a few times. It was cool. I love that look on his face when the little girl gets shot like "Oh you shouldn't have, you goofy bastard"

Man, I am still listening to this album. Growing on me so much. Starting to ignore the few things that annoy me and just enjoy the production/lyrics more than ever. Right up there with I'll Sleep When You're Dead for me, but a step below Fantastic Damage.

OK so I randomly decided to give C4C a listen and I pretty much got blown away. If there's anything that could rival The Money Store as album of the year for me it would be this one, holy fucking shit this was good.

This year's got El-p, Death Grips, Aesop Rock and apparently Killer Mike's latest album is genius as well. I'd say this is one hell of a year regarding hiphop.

R.A.P Music is the best of the bunch in my book, that's probably coz I'm a hip-hop traditionalist though.
Life Is Good and Oddisee's People Hear What They See are worth checking out as well.

C4C continues to grow on me whilst R.A.P. Music is starting go slightly bore me aside from the beats. Need to find the instrumental album.

Yeah I only recently got into hiphop anyways, and I do seem to have a preferance for alternative and experimental hiphop. The closest to traditonalist hiphop that I really dig is De La Soul I guess, so yeah.

C4C and R.A.P music are more or less the same album just different structure because of the difference in songwriting between el-p and mike.

Thematically very different, but musically pretty darn similar.

Also fun fact, the chorus in the song "true story" (maybe my fav) is sampling himanshu saying "in a world".

For a while i thought it was jadakiss but after listening to das racist he says it on the song with el-p

I thought it was Heems right away. Seen him perform it live,which confirmed my belief. Great track. Stay Down is my favourite though.
