This had fallen to the third page. :o

Here's my CD collection:

And what do people here think of Nas signing with Def Jam?

edit: the PHP code is perfect. Works on other sites and is copied directly from imageshack. Why wasn't it working.

edit 2: Spaces? For basically everything else putting in a space messes it up, but not this. And it has worked on other sites.

Great album. They don't have as much of a street influence on DYWM, so you find anything remotely like Clones on it. It's got more in common with Native Tongues material in the jazz influences, but at the same time is completely different. None of The Roots' material really compares with anything else, but you should like it. It's probably a 4.5 in my books. There's nothing wrong with it, but at the same time it isn't astounding. Just dope.

To put it short, it's well-worth the $10 I spent on it. :lol:

And you just made me put Essaywhuman?!!!??! on. Weird track, but the istrumentals are beautiful.

Sounds good, I'll be ordering KMD - Black Bastards off the site next when I build up the cash, going to take a while because I'm back at school tommorow.

The KMD album is real rare tho, hard to find everywhere.

I think there's 98 in that pic. I have about a dozen crappy old ones lying around somewhere that I never listen to (ie. a Ja Rule album.)

Same. I'd have at least 250 downloaded albums, but around 150+ bought.

Jae stop talking about illegal downloads.

Yes...haven't listened tho, thats the problem with downloading...you get so much but hardly listen to them. On the other hand if I buy an album I make an extra effort to listen to it.

Hey Matt do you still use MSN ? I haven't seen you on for ages

Current: Fix You - Coldplay (it's not even that great of a song. It just reminds of a certain moment that i can't explain, where i was so happy. So every time i hear those intro organs it makes me happy. And that's what music is all about, making you feel a certain way.)

Current All time (:lol:): Take The Veil Cerpin Taxt - Mars Volta, The (The Mars Volta are the best band i have ever been exposed to in my life. But they're not pop, so most people wont like them, or either it takes a while to get used to them. They're not metal or hardcore or anything, but they're full on in the way that, their music is so detailed, that it's hard to wrap your mind around. There is no category for them either, they're like nobody else. I reccomend for EVERYBODY to listen to Mars Volta and give them a chance, and if you don't like them, then fine, but you'll be a better person for hearing it. Of all the Mars Volta songs i've heard, i think this one represents them best. So go download it. But i warn you: They are all very much musician's musicians. Their music will probably just sound like noise to most who can' disect (did i spell that right?) it. I respect every person's musical ability in this band like i do of no other. There's a lot going on in their music, but it's so tight at the same time. But anyway, i'll stop raving about it. Now go download it! P.s. i saw them live on Sunday, and they put on a rad live show. The singer (singer from At The Drive In, remember them?) is full of energy. I'm seeing them again this Thursday too. can't wait!)

Wow i really ranted on there didn't i. :lol:
