  Speaker 1: who don't know, I have a book that I wrote
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: years ago about my experience and hip hop, is called
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Experience hip Hop. Each chapter deals with a classic hip
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: hop album, my memory of buying the album, my thoughts,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: how I got the album, where I was in my life,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: when the album dropped, and I go over a number
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: of classics. We are now on the fourth chapter of
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the book, which features a tribe called questis the low
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: End Theory one of my favorite groups of all time,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: or my favorite group of all time, but also probably
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: my favorite album from them. Not going to debate the
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Midnight Maradas low end theory, because we can go back
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and forth. They're good reasons on both sides. But this
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: chapter it's about the low End Theory because it was
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: the album that had the biggest impact on me becoming
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: a fan of that group at the time. So if
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: you would like to read that chapter of the book
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: the links in the description of this episode, subscribe to

  Speaker 1: I enjoyed writing it. I enjoyed revisiting, Like I mean, honestly,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I might have wrote this thing almost ten years ago.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I can't believe that, but I polished it up. It's

• 4:33
  Speaker 1: dot com, TheSource magazine dot com sometimes Yeah Cool djbooth
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: dot net, and a couple of places where I'm getting
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: some of these stories from listening right to the business stuff.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: So it's been a while, but not that long, maybe
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: last year since we heard Westside Gun talking about a
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: new project. Right. He had least I think two projects
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: last year which were cool, not the best in my opinion,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: but they were cool for what they were. And then
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: he had a death in his family that really impacted him,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: so he kind of became a little bit more low
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: key online. I mean, if you watch wrestling, you still
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: saw him at wrestling events and you would see him
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: tweeting Instagram here and there, but not with any of
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: the energy that he was doing prior to this loss
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: and his family. But now he's back and he has
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: officially announced Fly God is an Awesome God Part three,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: completing the trilogy where the first one I'm not even
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: gonna hold you. I know, Supreme Blind tell is what
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: people love and that's the classic, but I think for
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: me I love that one too. Don't get it twisted,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: but I think for me, Fly God is an awesome god,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: but the first one is just as great. It's like,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: if we had to give Westside Gun classics, I think
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: that one's a classic. Also, Part two was a little
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: disappointing because my expectations were so high because I loved
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the first one so much that, you know, the second
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: one kind of didn't fulfill those expectations for me. But
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: this is the third one, he seems to have like
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: a lot of energy, a lot of hope, you know.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: So I'm guessing I think the break from how he
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: would post on social media and coming up out of
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: this sad situation energized may help this project be dope
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: or be better than ever, because honestly, the last couple
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: of releases from Westside Gun have been hit or miss
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: for me, right, Like, sometimes he'll drop something where I'm like, yeah,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: there was a lot of hype behind this from him
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: mostly and it just wasn't that, And then he'll release
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: something that honestly doesn't have the same amount of hype,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: but yet it's better. So I'm just hoping for the best.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Let's see, this is coming from hip hop d well,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: actually this is coming from Westside Guns Twitter. He said
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: this Fly God is an awesome God three trilogy. The
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: album is crazy. I had to bring the mask back
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: out because this is too raw and dusty. I know
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: the game missed me, even though my kid's been doing
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: a great job with entertaining your father's back home. Right.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: So the album cover is him with the masks. I
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: think he gotta pulletproof vests on and all of that,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: which is cool, But I'm just I'm just gonna say
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: this man like the mass is a part of his aesthetic.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: He got plenty of albums with the mask on, right,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: including Supreme Blind Town. So to me, it doesn't signal
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: this is a you know, the third and the trilogy
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: to an album that kind of had that static. He's
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: really so many projects with that. What I liked a
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: lot about the first one was because it was artwork right.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: It was a picture of him with a mask on,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: bent down on his knees, you know, like like not
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: bent down on his knees, but bent down like but
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I gotta say pauls for that whatever, bent down and
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: they turned that into like artwork, right. I would prefer
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: if they take this and do that, because that was
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: a part of the mostique. It's kind of like the
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: one album I love that I'm the only one that
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: probably listens to at least twice a year, Do Rag Dynasty, Right,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: It's something about the name do Rag Dynasty to cover
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: with the Lakers back in the eighties winning the championship,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: but they put do Rags on everybody from Magic Johnson,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: the Kareem aldu Jabbar pat Riley, and then the music
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: that matched the esthetic. Now I'm not saying this doesen't,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: but I think for this trilogy specifically how it began
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: with the music, the Ray Kwan intro with the cover,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: it just was dope, and the third one kind of
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: missed all of what was dope about the first one.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: So I'm hopeful he's always going to say the music's crazy,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: because that's just what he says half the time. But
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: we shall see once it drops. Common recently in an
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: interview listed what he thinks or at least his mount
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Rushmore for Chicago. Right. He was on ten to seventy
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: five WGCI in Chicago, and he was talking about his
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: new album with Pete Rock, The Auditorium Volume One, which
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: is pretty dope if you're a hip hopad and you
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: haven't heard that one. I don't know what you're doing.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: But they went on to talk about you know, rappers
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: and you know who's the best in Chicago and top
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: five's in Mount Rushmore and he went on to say
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: this about some of his favorite rappers, and I quote, well,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Kanye is going on there for sure. I'm gonna put
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Loop a Fiasco in there. Twister is bad, but let
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: me see it's tough. Let me see, I'm gonna put
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Dirk up there because Dirk is doing what he do.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: And then man, I think I'm excluding myself because I
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: would be up there, but I might have to go
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: with Chance the rapper at that point. And some people
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: push back because he didn't include Chief Keys, who else?
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: And he shot out other rappers like ge Herbro or
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Lil Reese. Now what I what do I feel? Right?
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: I know y'all didn't ask what I'm going to tell
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: you anyway, Mount Rushmore? Right, So Mount Rushmore is four.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: I think let's see where he added one, two, three
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: or five? So five, so it's like a top five
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore. I think this is pretty simple, to be honest,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and it ain't really about popularity. It's about body or work, longevity,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: things of that nature, to be honest. So I agree
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Common should be on that Mount Rushmore. Kanye should be
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: on that Mount Rushmore. Twister definitely should be on that
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore. I think loop A should also be on
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: that Mount Rushmore. When you look at Loope's catalog, I
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: don't know. If you haven't heard of loupe Fiasco song
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: since Kick Push, you're missing out on a lot of
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: dope hip hop. He deserves to be on that as
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: far as like dudes that are nice from there and
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: that fifth spot, I don't know if I would give
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: it to Chance because even though I like Chance the rapper,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and I even like the album that nobody liked after
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: his debut, but I don't think he's had that much
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: of an impact beyond that, right, he hasn't really released
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of music since then, and it's tough to
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: just put him on a Mount Rushmore. I think in
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of ways, gotta be Chief Keith. I'm saying now,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of Chief Keith, and it's not
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: really about young versus old or anything of that nature.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Is just really more about what I like personally in
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: music and how I can get into it. But I
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: think what can't be denied about Chief is he inspired
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: a movement for a young generation as far as the
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: rappers that followed in his footsteps. Like, I can't say
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Dirk is bigger than Chief Keith when it comes to
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: impact overall, because I think Chief Keith was the guy's
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: who set the bar right, same thing with Lil Reese
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: and all the mother cats you want to add, So
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I would, I would say that and that represents Chicago
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: drill in a lot of ways. Trap or whatever probably
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: drill more than anything. But when you look at those
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: five by name, you know there's a lot of skill,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of influence, there's a lot of style.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: I just think, what uh, As a person who's not
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: from Chicago and really only knows those artists that are
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: huge coming out of Chicago, there's probably somebody who also
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: deserves to be on that mount more that I'm just
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: not aware of. So if you know, leave your comments
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: in a comments section below. But I'll take the opportunity
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: since we talk in Chicago rappers, to shout out I
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Am God. If you've never heard of I Am God
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: and you love hip hop, and you love bars specifically,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: you got you gotta listen to this dudes more than once.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: He's been a part of my Best of the Year right,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: He's been on my playlist for the Best of the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Year for several years now and he will continue to
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: be this year because he put out what three projects
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: and all of them was fired with clip though. So
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: that's a guy you need to check out. Because when
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: you talk about today and you may not like a
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: lot of the Chicago rappers today like a Dirk or
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Chief Keef or Lil Reese or whatever, and you just
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: really want the bars, but you know you're not. You're
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: off common, you off loop A check out. I am God,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: dude is dumb nice and lastly, so I am' gonna
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: hold y'all man, if you don't know. Rokim has recently
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: released a brand new album after more than a decade,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: I believe or close to it one or the other
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: called God's Network Rebirth. This album recently released contained seven songs,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: clocking in at thirty two minutes. Most of the production,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: if not all the production, I think all the production
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: is done by rock Him. The one thing that caught
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: most people's eyes, as they say Oh, the God is back.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: The God is back is the fact that God is
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: back with one hundred thousand features kidding, I'm not kidding.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Features include and I'm gonna just go through a couple
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: of them, Corrupt, Master, Killa, Beg, Huss Kingpin, Nipsey Hustle,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Planet Asia, Snoop Dogg, even though you're not really rapping,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: Fred to God's Son, sky Zoo thirty eight, Special, Crooked Cannabis,
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Chino exl Try State, Joel Ortiz, Kuji Rap, method Man, Prodigy,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: and the list goes on. Now, not everybody has a verse,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: but everybody contributes in some way, like, for example, on
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: a song God's Playground, DMX does a prayer at the end,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: and I believe it's a prayer he did when he
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: met rock Him for the first time you've seen if
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: you haven't, check out that video online. But y'all know
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: how I do when it comes to reviews. I did
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: give it three listens, right. The first one is my impressions,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: the second one is to listen more intently, and then
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: the third one is to confirm my thoughts and after
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: listening to this album three times and is the quick
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: review for some of y'all, it's that bad. It's better
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: than I thought it would be, but it's not great.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: I could tell you completely right now. It will not
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: be in my top five of the year. And that's
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: no knock on it. That top five has become very
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: tough to nail down. With the number of releases recently
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: that are so dope, I have to rethink how I
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: have things. Will it be in my best of the
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: year right which is a longer list of ten albums.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: I doubt it because what I find with this project
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: in particular is that even though the beats are cool,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: you don't get enough rock him And it's kind of
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: disappointing because I liked the beats better than I thought
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I would. Because the first single b L featuring Corrupt
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: and master Killer did not move me whatsoever, like at all.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I was just like, this is what we're gonna hear.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Corrupt hasn't been as good as he used to be,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: at least not in every performance, even though that Dog
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Pound album will be and my best of the year
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: because the rocking is straight, but this particular feature was like, Man. Also,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not the biggest fan of master Killer. I get it.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Some people like him. I'm not a fan of his flow,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: never really have been. Obviously, there's some iconic verses on
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: some iconic Boutange songs where you just kind of like
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: all of it. And then he's had a song or
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: two here and there. As far as his solo career
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: that Oh Bars that I liked, but I would have preferred,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: respectfully Jizz on this record with rock Kim and rock
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Kim lyrically was I think he was better than he's been,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: or maybe it's just because the production is better than
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: his previous album from a couple of years ago that
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: he sounds better. But again, you just don't get enough,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Like I swear this is a song on here, I
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: don't remember which one it was where I'm like, did
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: rock him even Ron on this record? I couldn't remember.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: I was like, I don't think rock Kim had a
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: verse on this song. Now standout performances As far as
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: MC's BG on the song now is the time, I
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: liked it a lot. I was skeptical seeing Beg on
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: there with huss King, Penn and rock Kim, and I
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: was like, yo, I don't know about this comp to Menace,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: but I really liked VG on it, so I thought
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: he was a standout. Hust King Pen did his job.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Nipsey Hustles verse was cool, but I think I liked
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: playing Asia's verse better. Sky Zoo and Fred the God's
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Son did their thing. Same thing with thirty eight Special
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: even though I'm not the biggest fan, but I don't
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: have nothing to do with his bars to do his nice. Also,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: King Crooked was dope. Cannabis. I did not like Chino XL.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: I've kind of never liked. I get why people like him.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: He again, these dudes aren't whack with their bars. It's
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: just for me. It's more delivery voices in some case
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Other standouts Cooji Rat was cool
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: on a versus. Joe l Ortiz was pretty dope. Prodigy
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: was good. It made me really want that Mob Deep
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: album like ASAP. But to me, the best verse on
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: this album was method Man and it's the last song
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: is a song called Sign of the Seven. Method Man Man,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: like his last album was not bad, it was okay.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: I think it was meth Flab three, but it's like
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: his albums can live up to his guest featured verses.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: This is one of his best. In my opinion, I
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: thought Methody Man was dope. So again, in all, I
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: think it was a pretty solid project, a solid album
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: for rock Kim. But the only problem with that is
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: we wanted to hear from rock Kim, and we wanted
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: to hear more from rock Kim, and this is just
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: a compilation. Honestly, rock Kim, even though this was probably
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: more of a display of his production versus him as
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: an MC, he might have he should have just did that.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: He should have just said, Yo, this is me as
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: a producer, and I'm bringing a lot of my favorite
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: rappers on the track. And then maybe he just rhyme
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: on one track at the very end and that's it.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: At least you could set the expectations. But all that
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: return of the God blah blah blah, the God is
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: back God, But no, he wasn't. The God was doing
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: what I do right when I know I'm not going
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: to be at the party the whole time, I'm showing
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: my face and then I'm gonna disappear. And that's kind
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: of what it felt like so to me. Honestly, unless
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: you like all the guest appearances and all of this
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: works for you, it will be a forgettable album really
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: quick by the end of the year, definitely will. And
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: it's unfortunate because we're in the year where he rock
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: and com and got some heat, you know, ll kuj
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: and q Tips sounded like they got to a winner
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: on their hand. You know, there's the Nods and Premier
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: that's supposedly supposed to drop, and then there's a whole
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: bunch of other albums that were just better than this.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: That makes the competition thick where you're just not going
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: to think about this album. I'll say this, if you're
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: a person who doesn't listen to as much hip hop
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: as I do, or you know at all, and you
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: got excited because there's a rock Kimberlys, you may like it,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: but you may not like it because we just want
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: more rock cam on it. That's all. Was that so hopefully,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: rock Hem says, I hear y'all, here's an EP and
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: it's just me rapping on it, right, and a guest
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: feature maybe a NAS and that's it, right, But this
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: ain't it to be honest, it's cool, but I could
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: see myself really not listening to it ever again. So
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: there you have it. What do you think about rock
• 24:03
