KRS-ONE & Marley Marl "Kill A Rapper"

You got a point there Turntable, there's been times where people have recognised his skills like when he put out "Lean Back" and battled 50. Now sure he dumbed down here or there but who hasn't really at some point? A lot of times this happens 'cause fans are fickle when they send a mix signal in what they want Now here's a shining example of when he's on top of his game: DJ Kay w/Fat Joe, Joe Buddens, and Joe "Not Your Average Joe" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIxlLVHiAWE

Yeah that Montell Jordan album's one of my favs too, Fat Joe's underrated, a lot of those rappers on R&B songs in the '90s I didn't hear anywhere else, and speaking of TLC I heard that Chilli's having this new reality show on VH1 Guy "Dancin", new jack swing forever

Nas Feat. Hip Hop All Stars "Where Are They Now? 90's Remix"

Yeah people are gonna buy it no matter what but I'm hoping this is more like "The Chronic" as far as quality goes which was musical genious, since then on the most part his music has been hit or miss, "2001" had some cool songs but I thought it lacked some substance that made him a classic artist, btw at this rate Will's next album will probably be released before this album comes out 'cause I think it's more of fantasy than reality with Dre these days since I don't think he's motivated enough anymore

Jazzy's done as much/more producing compared to the top producers in the history of hip hop, it's been a pretty good balance between DJ'ing and producing the way it stands now, I can't wait for "The Magnificent 3" to drop

Yeah Dre's been working on this album since 2002, the way he's built up this album it's either gonna be hip hop's version of "Thriller" or a flop

Montell Jordan "All I Need"

I still think Busta has a lot left in him, I thought "Back On My B.S." had some good songs on it but the production wasn't as strong as "The Big Bang"... I think he's one of the few creative rappers left in the game, he could throw up on record and it'd sound better than most of the trash out these days, yeah he doesn't seem to be that great of a person but he's a great talent though, I call him the Tiger Woods of hip hop

I think Nate Dogg's still recovering from the stroke he had a couple years ago

Biz Markie "Make The Music With Your Mouth Biz"

Biz Markie's a legend should be mentioned among the great MCs, he has his own unique style

http://www.sohh.com/2010/04/busta_rhymes_reportedly_checks_out_chemo.html Busta Rhymes has reportedly changed the title of his upcoming solo album, The Chemo. According to producer Swizz Beatz, the project may have undergone a name change. "I think Busta changed the title from The Chemo but I swear to you, this album is crazy," Beatz promised in an interview. "It's not, no, no, no, it's crazy. I was impressed, I'm not even gonna lie. I went into the studio expecting to hear something else and I heard something else, back to back." (Rap-Up TV) Last month, R&B singer Robin Thicke said he was recruited by Busta to appear on the album. "I did a record with Busta for his new album," Thicke said in an interview. "We went in the studio and Busta and I worked together. Busta is very top secret--NASA, CIA, don't tell nobody nothing, don't play nobody nothing, so I probably shouldn't have even said that. He's probably sending somebody here right now to beat me up." (Rap-Up) The rapper has been keeping fans updated on the LP's status via his popular Twitter page. "RT @THEREALSWIZZZ: The Iron Man song is done much love to Busta for taking it to the next level hit him up and (cont)http://tl.gd/ompb5," he wrote yesterday. "@Cappadonna Where u at sis???I need u in the studio now...." (Busta Rhymes' Twitter) He recently explained his motivation for naming the album Chemo. "I called the album The Chemo because it seems like the industry and music overall is dying slowly," Busta explained in an interview. "The cancer that's stricken the business is killing the music, not only from a business standpoint, but also the value of the content and the creativity behind it. I just want to start the first stage of chemotherapy treatment that needs to take place and hopefully inspire others to do their part and contribute to different stages of the cure." (Billboard)

This is some BS that Jazzy wasn't mentioned among the great producers here by Vibe http://vibe.com/hiphopproducer

Brian Mcknight Feat. Talib Kweli "She"

Yeah it's skeptical what to believe from Dre, he should just release the album already and stop playing these games with the fans, and it should also be mentioned that Ice Cube got better chemistry with Dr. Dre than Jay-Z does

Well that clears it up, I'm hyped to hear that Dr. Dre/Ice Cube collab

LL Cool J Feat. 50 Cent "Heartbeat"

50 Cent Feat. Eminem "Patiently Waiting"
