it'd be nice if the music was good too, but that's probably too much to ask.

It'd be nice if 2007 hip-hop was starting to turn around, because this year has been kinda lackluster.

Damo Suzuki: So, um, yeah. Getting older isn't as bad as it sounds. Better than being young & poor (DjDrake) or young & slutty (SG) or young, poor and slutty (Paves); am I right?
Alright, my friends. It's time for another solid little rock jam

Seriously.
Still caring about hip hop albums is kind of cute, though.

no talk on the somb of the new public enemy?
i quite like it.
"Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercial and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far much more bitter, cynical sense of humour."

Realizing that 75% of most rap/hip hop albums is filler is not a function of age.

Hip hop died when record companies got greedy and started charging an arm & a leg for samples. Now all we get is that awful southern cheap drum machine/synth strings bullshit. There's a few torchbearers out there (Pharoahe Monch album ruled this year), but it just hasn't been worth keeping up with the last few years.
