Lordie the only one that would actually want that

Man loves orchestral rock

Dang :ohno: isolated incident or do you live somewhere hectic?

Broski I did a mini jam of Nas during that Esco era, mon was on another level. Eye for an Eye, Verbal Intercourse, Fast Life ,More Money More Murder, It Was Written. :datass: Wish he got an album with Havoc/Rza/Premo beats those years.

about to listen to my first aretha album

the Demo tape with Deja Vu on it

full album with premo beats would’ve been nice especially in the late 90s

How hard of chrono are you going?

It almost doesn't make sense that didn't happen

"The highlights of livin, Vegas style roll dice in linen
Antera spinnin on Milleniums, twenty G bets I'm winnin them"

not at all, listening to I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

gonna try to get into some soul classics i never got around to in next few weeks

Nice yeah this is the only real banger I've found from before Wexler got his mits on her... Think she was like 22

Can I recommend some

Isolated incident but I live in an extremely class stratified part of Manhattan - the street to the left of me is very poor/not so safe and the street to the right of me is gentrified with nice apartment buildings and restaurants.

third watch of inland empire hit me like a ton of bricks, it's aging so well

Nas had Pac shook

yes please was about to ask thread anyway

so far itinerary (if i get to them all) is:

Aretha
Marvin Gaye other 70s albums
Isaac Hayes - Black Moses
Sam Cooke - Live at the Harlem Square Club
Ray Charles - Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music
Otis Redding - Otis Blue
Minnie Ripperton - Come to My Garden
James Brown - The Payback
Terry Callier - What Color Is Love
Millie Jackson - Caught Up
Al Green - Call Me
James Carr - You Got My Mind Messed Up
Bill Withers - Still Bill
O'Jays - Back Stabbers
Donny Hathaway - Live
Earth Wind and Fire - That's the Way of the World
Roberta Flack - First Take

Stevie has been sinking in harder recently. only soul ive heard basically is Stevie, Marvin-Whats Going On, Curtis Mayfield, Gil Scott, Isaac Hayes, James Brown, Sly, Shuggie Otis, isley Brothers, and the main motown hits, that Ike & Tina album you reccd

also rec any good classic soul one hit wonders

part of it is getting more into the vocal style, like for example Aretha style used to be like nails on chalkboard to me (i know, heresy) but Im warming up to it now

Pac is lucky he didn't run into The Wu like that, forget the group what about the other 80 goons they had

good thing he was cool with them haha he didn’t f*** with Mobb tho

First off you gotta get The Drifters album Save The Last Dance and the Ben E King album Don't Play That Song definitely the best soul I've found it years

The biggest L Nas took was when that dude rubbed his head

Who was that

Nope, sounds awesome
