More wall-to-wall metaphor.

It's a lost art in hip-hop.

Last track - Who Killed Jane?

by Nightjar Wed Nov 18, 2020 9:06 pm

A "Jane" song.

There's a song about Jane on every EPMD album.

We should do a Rick James album.

The word "business" is used in every title of the group's albums. Every album also has a track with "Jane" in the title.

It is over.

That was very monotonous, from start to finish.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

Yes, something by Linda Blair's boyfriend.

Also, something by Troutman/Zapp.

I shall give it 2 stars.

In truth I should've put forward one of their first two albums ('88 and '89) so you could see/hear how ahead of the curve they were.

The EPMD sound was looping and sampling when even Public Enemy were shouting over drum machines.

Of course it wouldn't've'd'd made a difference because... blah blah

This album however is my favourite by them.

It would be nice if I had some more solid hip-hop allies and epicureans on this forum so I didn't feel like I was just p*ssing in the wind, but it's not like I didn't know.

The only medicine for you people is Renaldo & the Loaf and Half Japanese. evil2
