Sonic Youth Gossip - what are you listening to?

YES!

I've been on a heavy 2Pac kick all week. I'm a huge fan honestly. Have been really really obsessed for the past like 5 yrs or so. I mean, I was a fan growing up, but I got heavy into watching all those shitty docs and collecting all the fringe releases over the years too.

Pac is a LEGEND.

any bootlegs/movies you can recommend me?

I really like this "import" called Ready 2 Die. It has "Thug Nature" on it, which I don't remember appearing elsewhere.

you mean Makavelli? I have a tough time deciding. Growing up I always considered Me Against The World to be my favorite. And it may still be. But both All Eyez and 7 Day have grown on me big time since their release.

Yeah maybe I should be taking notes or keep a diary but I'm not too good with things like that. I started listening yesterday and so far I've got to the year 1985! I'm not sure if i'll be able to see this through to the current date though, that could take weeks! :D

i believe it's only a matter of time until BasedGod drops THE album which will finally make him as respectable as any mainstream rapper and take Wayne's place.

I feel like yr kind of right. The thing is, I thought the same about Gucci Mane, and that never happened.

hah. if anything Waka took Gucci's place, and Drake took Weezy's.

although I still maintain that BASEdGAwD is "The World's Most Terrible Rapper", I've recently discovered Clams Casino. my only wish is that he didn't make such beautiful tracks for such disastrously awful artists.

right now: Clams Casino mixtape
