less hate more music :)
Merry Christmas to me, my wife got me Theater of Pain.
Gun Grave is the shit probly my favorite track off the joint right now. Nova get Tank to release The History of Violence he was killin it during that time period.
I got my copy of this album and IMo the guests are just overkill, no one flows well with holocaust its all odd verses placed over basic tracks, the mastering levels are uneven all over album, the best tracks are were holocaust is alone and there is only a couple.
I don't understand, he was great on RZA's and Killarmy's albums but the dude is trash now, and I just keep seeing this tread pop up, I just can't believe that people are still following his music. Its just bad music, I guess allot of people are hoping to hear a silkworm, dooms day, bastard swordsman or terrorist like verse, because all those verses were ill. I'm not a hater but instead a fan of good music and what I've been hearing from him hardly qualifies.
The man is not for everyone that is for sure. His flow and delivery are not what they used to be but The Sign of Hells Winter is still a god of rhymes.
his silkworm style isn't even my favorite tbh
TBH I dont prefer any one of the man's alter ego's over another, they all hold a distinct unmatched style
I can get over that every rhyme he throws make you picture something specific in your head, noone else does that for me, ahaha
^ yeah he's creates some of the craziest visuals ever .
The Warcloud Smugglin Booze shit and the shit he was doin around like 2004-05 was crazy love that shit like Gun and Doomsday (Reprise).
Heard the album, and it's ok. The guests were actually better than expected, except for Professional, which is still one of the worst emcees I've ever heard. Nova did well, and the higher profile guests were pretty much on point. They did seem to use a weird mix on all the main vocals, and the overall mastering is still off. I know that artists create for themselves foremost, but in the end, it's really all about your fans isn't it? Doesn't Holocaust ever stop to think that his fans have been waiting for years to hear more of the Warcloud-era type rhymes? Everything since the Blue Sky/Black Death album has been received by pretty much all with a bit of skepticism and want of more of his older styles. I'm still a huge fan of everything he does, but like almost every other fan, wish for more in the older styles. I believe he could regain a lot of his mc status, attract more fans, and ultimately make more money from his art if he listened to the voices of his fans more. Just my opinion, but I think the reason this forum post stays so active is because people are hoping to hear that he's coming with more of that old style.
^^ Nah G. You need to listen some old Professional joints on them Scarekrow beats. Like Pro's Laboratory. He killed those beats. I learnt to respect him from there. He has the ability to deliver swift tongue twisting vocals that no average emcee could do. So no matter how laid back his style sounds these days, I respect the dude from back then. He deserves it. Praises due. Motherfucker is ILL. Trust me.
Yeah Diggity is on point, Pro is fuckin dope. He is just too unorthadox with his style sometimes and some cant get with it.Quote:

An he aint ever gonna do shit like Mixed Forrest Zone or Old Jail pajama Room again, personally I dont think he can flow like that anymore. I could be wrong but thats my feeling anyway. He's got unrealesed shit from those times and later, maybe some day that shit will find its way to us.
Was Pro's Labratory The Next Installment ever released?
Im tryin to get my hands on the album but i cant seem to....
Chambermusik has um 4 sale now they got almost all pros stuff
Thanks mang
not enough people realizing how 2099 + fam is gonna change the world....
actually all things considered, he's an average emcee [not wack, not great]. he knows how to rap, I guess, but his just not THAT GREAT. We can compare him to Tonedeff, and I'm pretty sure Tone wins in every department. Professional it's just another underground emcee who just raps without any concepts or without really witty punchlines. Most of the shit I heard was a cheap Mef ripoff with flows that use the most simple and generic words, most of the times. I'm sure some Wu-Corp fellas could do better [think Picasso, that dude is a beast]...peace.Quote:

The style of pro's voice alone is dope, and personally I enjoy some of the unusual lines that hes got
It goes for war and all his homies, originality, unfortunately most of the 2099 crew's ish is way over the heads of average underground "fans"

check it, support the man!!
Thanks Bronze, he should try and do a full album with Holo
As "Domination" & "Undying Creature" are just ridiculous.
Great contrast between them too.
professional >>> any of wera's favorite rappers
Pro sounds like Meth lmao

Thanks Nova, good to hear some Mixjive beats. Is Krow working with North Star thats what CB said a while ago. Is North Star still in the game havent heard from CB in a long time.
I tried 2 set up that Christ bearer video inteview 4 the forum 1 time but no one came through w/ questions sames as Black Knights i havent seem CB in a min but i know hes still working
Yeah I remember that I should have dropped some questions. What about the video interview with Pro? I thought up a bunch of questions and so did some others, I think we had enough for a decent interview.
So when is the 2099 crew going to tour around abit??
Just show some Toronto, Ontario love and I'll be happy
Cali shows are getting lined up 4 march if all goes well w/ a well known headliner...Canada all depends on how we get there i know im only cat w/ a passport in the crew haha
new info on American Poets 2099 release coming soon
I was flippin threw the chanels today and came across a show on History channel called
Hooked: Illegal Drugs and the program info said "Cocaine leads police to strenghen the calibar of their guns"
haha Its funny where Holo gets some of his lines from.
its crazy the shit that holo will reference...
"whoops im an indian" from a three stooges movie (I just caught that reference very recently)
original Star Trek episode titles (A City On The Edge Of Forever/ his hand was severed)
i know there's gotta be a bunch more over my head
Whoa I didnt know either one of those references Mumm RA good lookin. On a Cold American beach he's got a line thats an old Manga Video slogan that plays in the begining of their movie. Its something like a Graphic life force...Japanese animation I dont remember it exactly.
i'd say close 2 half of his raps are famous titles/slogans/phrases etcQuote:
