Damn I love Cypress Hill

I reacon we could get along well Marlin, both like Cypress Hill and both hate Chingy :lol:

I think a good break through though would of been the Numb-Encore with Jay Z and Linkin Park...even though I dont like Jay Z its a good song.

Best beat of the year I think could of gone to Method Man for "Whats Happenin" feat. Busta rhymes.

I think Three Six Mafia are good too and should get up in the next couple of years.

Still undecided about Akon...only really heard Ghetto which is an ok song.

Lil Rob is a good Latino rapper that could make it big as well.

Other mentions have to goto Eminems disappointing albulm "Encore"...all the songs sound the same and it isnt nearly as good as "The Eminem Show".

Def Jam for constanly screwing around with the release of RedMan's new albulm. He is great and I wish they would put more of a priority on him.

Cypress Hill for another albulm of great tracks.

I reackon Ghostface Killah and Roscoe have heaps of potential too.

[incredible_holc]

pepper no-one likes chingy.

and pepper while you may only have heard about scribe through kyle and jackie-o hes been around for longer than a few months

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Pepper- Scribe hasn't released anything this year. He has appeared on one NZ hit single, "Stop the Music", which is credited to P Money featuring Scribe. The Crusader was released in 2003, as were the "Stand Up", "Not Many", and "Dreaming" singles. He was probably the most famous person to emerge in NZ in 2003, bar none. However, I would have to say it's more than a little dubious to give someone a 2004 award, when you would have given him the 2003 award for the exact same stuff.

 

[Manurewa_Marlins]

^^^Mate, he had released "Stop The Music", which was the top single for ages, and other tracks on P-Money's new album (hasnt dropped in Aus yet i dont think), he has done tours and shit in OZ and NZ, aswell as going how many times gold and crap in both countries. Did the Ribena advert in the UK, and how many awards at NZ music awards,......

Yeah I missed Kanye, I should have put him in as an honerable mention, his album was a good mainstream one, I admit it got heavy rotation when I bought it.

And yeah....When will RedMan get off DEF JAM????????? Dam, this dude is one of my fav rappers, his flow goes crazy in his tracks, esp. the Lost Boyz one, Beast From The East......dam, I reckon he should sign to Wu-Tang....

Yeah, that Immortal Tech verse is nice, he is ill, anyone who is curious, def download or buy his album, you will not be, I REPEAT, not be disappointed, I guarantee.

i dont really care if anyone likes chingy or not why would i care?
i dont listen to the radio either and im not the biggest scribe fan anyway oh yeh and another good call from u, it tops the cake of all ur calls.

^^^Mate, he had released "Stop The Music", which was the top single for ages, and other tracks on P-Money's new album (hasnt dropped in Aus yet i dont think), he has done tours and sh*t in OZ and NZ, aswell as going how many times gold and crap in both countries. Did the Ribena advert in the UK, and how many awards at NZ music awards,......

Tours? Ribena ads? Awards?

I agree, 2004 has been a big year for Scribe, but only because he's cashing in on the music he released in 2003, by releasing that music internationally, winning awards for it etc. But it's still 2003's music.

 

[Manurewa_Marlins]

Yeah but hes made moves this year.......not last year. This year was the year he began to do what he set out to do, album dropped late last year, and yeah.

Next to blow up are Con Psy and PNC from BreakingWreckwordz.

 

[DJ Raida]

FRONTLINE!

 

[Manurewa_Marlins]

haha Con Psy was on Breakingwreckowrdz......P.Money poached him lol....same with PNC....never mind.
