Listening to Mecca and the Soul Brother by Pete Rock & CL Smooth, just classic!

Jamiroquai is like a blend of r&b, acid jazz and funk

No, Jamiroquai are not rap/hip-hop.

Does Jamiroquai come under the rap/hip hop umbrella?  That's one band I love a lot and recommendations for stuff on those lines would be great.  And how about the Peeping Tom s/t?

Rap fans, be sure to pick up the new Big Boi album Sir Luscious Leftfoot. REALLY good stuff.

I just seen Talib Kweli and Hi tek a couple weeks ago, it was a badass show! Talib even played a couple Blackstar tracks, that was cool. Hopefully Blackstar goes on tour in the near future, and a new album would be real nice too. Been really into hip hop this year, finding more and more artists all the time. Underground and Alternative Hip Hop is  were its at for me.

Boy Meets World is the 2009 debut album by rapper Fashawn, entirely produced by Exile, appearances by Blu and Aloe Blacc so that's the Below The Heavens posse right there. Also features Evidence, a guy I think you'd like. It's familiar stuff- jaws won't be on the floor- but done very well.


Yep, picked that one up. Not as good as breaking atoms, but definitely worth my time.

I'll check out Fashawn, sounds good.

Word, first two are fantastic, hard hitting albums. Pharoahe Monch is a force to be reckoned with. I'd have loved to see him battle back in the day.

I need to get that Lootpack album already.
 
Oh and people need to check Brainchild by Society Of Soul. Completely forgotten classic.

I honestly think DJ Romes is the greatest DJ ever. He can make any beat work. Here's just some of his work:



I'm pretty sure he's the only DJ who has ever had the balls to sample Gentle Giant before.

Lucas: Well, Opeth played the Royal Albert Hall the other day. People would've said you were mad if you predicted that in the 90s.
 
Noak: I have never heard this Curse Ov Dialect. I'll try to check them out sometime.
