I watched BEEF - a documentary of feuds between various rap artists over the past 30 years on Itunes. It started off great but it started to lag a bit toward the end. They kind of just skimmed over the Jay-Z/Nas feud and didn't even do the Eminem/Source feud at all (they were going to do it for BEEF 2 but they left that off and did Royce/D12 instead). They also left out a lot of LL Cool J's classic battles from the late 80's/early 90's. I'd say it's a 3/5. A rental at best.

*I also posted this in the "I just watched..." thread

How is BEEF 2 compared to the original?

I've seen a couple from YT but I'm not sure which ones that they are from:

Eminem/Source (I have no idea why they didn't put this one on any of the Beef DVDs - it's fantastic)
Royce/D12
Lil Flip/TI
Cypress Hill/Westcoast Connection
LL/Canibus (I didn't see the whole thing but I KRS made this funny face during that segment -

)
50 Cent/Game (I didn't see the entire thing)

Did they ever do Jay/Mobb Deep, Jadakiss/Beanie, or KRS/Nelly?

Don't really remember much from it. Not even sure I've watched it.

Was just listening to Freight Train by Joe Budden off of Escape Route and realized he sampled the Metallica song No Leaf Clover. I certainly marked out.

For some reason, I got the urge to listen to some NWA. While "Straight Outta Compton" and "Fuck Tha Police" are their most well known songs - but this song is my personal favorite from their catalog:

N.W.A - 100 Miles And Runnin'

Had to drive downtown today and go to the government building. Made me want to play Public Enemy's song Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos.

Eminem is basically the rap version of a prog guitarist at this point. Dude's so obsessed with sounding like a virtuoso that he forgot how to be interesting.

Colored leather was part of the bling era, or Puffy era, whatever you wanna call it. It was like the gangsta version of the shiny suits.

Nothing to see here.

I was posting the sick Em freestyle, but it's already on here.

I come around like what goes around
What goes up must come down, anyone who comes up must go down
Might as well go for the gusto now
Better not let up, better not let them breathe
Last shot, give it all you got
Try to turn me down bitch, get fucked with a volume knob
Fuck all you snobs, hoes how i hope all you rot
2 bottles of Lubriderm and a box of condoms is that all you brought?
And you want a Ménage à trois, you twats?!
Fuck that! I'd rather turn this club to a barroom brawl
Get rowdy as Roethlisberger in a bathroom stall
Like a leaf stuck in a vacuum ya'll
ain't nuttin but a whole lotta suckin' going on in rap
Yeah but I'm home, back for the bone, back in the zone
leave him alone you don't wanna go eggin him on
It'll never be my chair that you own
crown so tight that it cuts all circulation
no air to the brain no oxygen other words it's no air to the throne
When i die so does hip-hop
hitchcock did a shit bitch ass doc got his zip locked in a bag
you fags ain't been able to fade me since kid rock had a hi-top
keep bloggin while i'm mind boggling i zone like im in the twilight dog
get off my bone, this is my mic dog and i like hoggin it
flow so wet ima take this beat tabboggoning, im water loggin it, im soggin it
pull your verse out the beat and stomp on it
suplexing it on cement like im on some straight outta compton shit
take this dick and chomp on it, im so bad i could bitch slap a back handed compliment
jackass, eat a donkey dick, the game i just about conquered it
like donkey kong, im bonkers bitch im the king of this honkey shit
i reign supreme in this honkey shit
no screaming and arguing
makes no difference whether a benz or a bentley or a beamer's the car you in
you think you ball well i bomb it, i throw up bombs when i vomit
i throw down in the kitchen might hit your mum with my omlete
but you got egg on your face, now watch me drop it atomic
i should be strapped to the chest of a kamikaze bitch
im as bat shit as ozzy it's obvious you can tell right off the bat
no pun intended but come any closer i'll bite off your head
trying to give me the finger's kinda like giving a spider the web
I'm just gonna spin it and use it to my advantage
i catch a fly in that bitch, you think you fly, you just food
i give as much of a flying fuck as that superman dude
Guess I just do what you can't do, i make you look stupid and bamboozled
confused as usual and you can get ripped she can open a can too
but you better hope you can handle the heat or stay the fuck outta hells kitchen
i came to cock block like a square, fucking male chicken
Yeah, it's shady slut the rest can suck on a big one
Im as despicable as daffy duck when im spittin'

There's just TOO many quotables. Shit is bananas.

Relapse was a heck of an improvement over Encore. There were 3 good songs on Encore and I liked half of the songs on Relapse.* Em's most well known single - Lose Yourself - was a serious song - so maybe this will pan out like that song (but it definately will not get the same kind of buzz).





*I think he HATES Encore too because on a special on BET last year they were interviewing him and in the background was every album cover that he had ever released (even Infinite, The Slim Shady EP, Devil's Night, and The Re-UP) except for Encore - which I thought was funny.
