So uhh, if anyone's interested, The Young Veins (Comprised of 2 former Panic! At the Disco members) has their album streaming on myspace. I'm only 2 songs in but it's pretty beatles esque, and if you liked Pretty. Odd I'm sure you'll like this.

As an avid Hip-Hop fan, I happen to be distressed. The mainstream continues to roll with the auto-tune bandwagon. Even more disheartening is the fact that most of the rap/hip-hop songs that are coming out are seriously lacking in wordplay and creativity. Hell, all people do now is shout their name out about 17 times at the beginning of a song, accompanied by airhorns and a random DJ's name, rap for about 10 seconds, go to a 20 second chorus, and repeat the last to steps over and over again.
I guess I could feel the pain of rock fans as Lil' Wayne tries to emulate their music. I think its pure garbage.

GoN: You should check out The Sound Providers. Seriously some of the best hip hop I've ever heard.
Theres still some good rap coming out, like Freeway's "The Stimulus Package". Its my third favorite CD this year. Then for mixtapes theres Curren$y's "Smokee Robinson" and Bun B's "No Mixtape". And besides The Roots are releasing a new album later this month and both Common and Kanye are making a new albums later this year.
I really hope that Common will not take the route of Universal Mind Control again. Here's hoping to a Finding Forever, Be, and Like Water for Chocolate inspired album.
As for Kanye, I lost all hope after 808's & Heartbreak. I know, I know, it's not a Hip-Hop album per-se, more of a R&B/singing album, but it's where the money is at.
New Roots album ftw.
New Lupe Fiasco album ftw.
eh i don't know dude, kanyes new single is worth checking out
kanye has been consistently bad on everything after Late Registration
but that was a fantastic album

What are you talking about Graduation ruled
I thought Graduation was decent overall, but I could feel the quality going down compared to his earlier albums.
I'd disagree, but I think we can all agree that Late Registration was the high point of his career musically.
Yeah Common said that he was going a more traditional route, so no more dance tracks. Kanye and No ID are supposed to be producing it and I think the Soulquarians are doing some tracks too.
Yeah. Still prefer Graduation, but to each his own I guess.
Eminem's Recovery leaked like A few days ago, and I keep hearing people saying its his best since TES but I haven't listened to it yet. I'll check
it out later.
it out later.
I've been listening to Eminems Recovery and I like it =] Well.. half of it. I Like
No Love
Going Through Changes
Spacebound
Not Afraid
25 To Life..
And a few others. His flow is a bit repetetive in all the songs..

Orly? I'll have to see if this claim is true. TES is a pretty hard album to beat.
I just watched the Lady Gaga Alejandro music video. Needless to say, it was weird as hell. Sometimes I think that her whole career is a prolonged publicity stunt. Needless to say, however, her songs are quite catchy.
