The f**k did I miss this thread? This is the best thing in CB Music.
Give me something to listen to once I dry up Immortal Technique. |

KIDZ IN THE HALL
 DOOM can't comprehend why grown men, doing grown men things, would consider themselves children. Even evil geniuses have problems deciphering shit that comes from left field, sometimes. Its all good. Its time for another installment of underground doper skiller type shit. In the wee hours of the night, DOOM gets down. When the morning rolls around, he gets some beers, beef and a double shot of hiphop. Enter, you children... Here's the basic overview; two college students get their minds right at an Ivy League college, and they're Black. Negroez. Not SUNY, or Newark Community College, but the University of Pennsylvania. Doom sees education as the pinnacle of a functioning society. Naledge, the emcee of the duo (Naledge is spelled wrong. You should have gone to MOREHOUSE), and Double-0 is the DJ Producer. A duo set up in classic form. Most recently, these critters made waves by releasing this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=hJWNW3g6Blo "Work To Do" a track in support of Barack Obama's presidential campaign. Sounds gimmicky and shit. Niggas don't care about politics. Life is all about bitches and weed and shit, and facades of having a lot of money! Hmmm... They send out mixed signals. Overall, its 'generic decent hiphop' if such a genre exists. The duo is acting as the resurgence of Rawkus records, and the sound is very reminiscent of Pharaohe Monch's Rawkus days and from what has been floating around the internet airwaves and getting dropped on your neighborhood mixtapes is a sound that brings you back to Soundbombing 2 in '99. Then, there's their new single entitled 'Driving Down the Block.' The style and the sound flipped like a gymnast to a more mainstream and marketable vibe. These kidz still may have a lot to learn in this game, but all in all, you would gain more from listening to them vice listening to Little Wayne. http://www.myspace.com/kidzinthehall |

^KITH bores the hell out of me. I'm not impressed or moved about anything they rap about. I'd much rather listen to Consequence or Rhymefest over Naledge. The beats are solid, but I'm not blown away by anything. There are plenty of alternatives to them that can offer the same type of vibe, with better content. As for the political aspect, I'm a strong supporter of Barack Obama, but maybe they're jumping on his nuts for their own self-promotion. Thats just me, though.
