I just think he tries for the shock factor to much, I just never got into him.


I dont like ICP, but MF Doom isnt horrible im not a huge fan though.

Pharaohs is the collaborated version of jmt basically. Jus allah actually went back to jmt for their next album.

Aside from the fact that Vinnie Paz is the weak link in JMT, sure :-p Actually, Celph Titled/Apathy are by far the highlights of that band for me, I rarely listen to AOTP for that reason.

I've been listening to a lot of J-Zone and Aesop Rock.. though personally I prefer 90s hip hop well over underground hip hop. Why bother with the emulaters when you can just listen to the originals?

Which is why I don't listen to much hip hop artists now.
