Hip-hop help needed

Since I know nothing about hip-hop, what songs are most popular to listen to while riding?

I want to burn a CD, so if you can give me the artist name too that would help. Thanks.

(kmcginty) · (kmcginty) **Join Date: Sep 2005** 08-21-2007, 10:17 AM

^ AGREED. Atmosphere is awesome.

So, chris do you play Necro over the tower speakers. I think every boat on the lake would be a little upset if they hear "The hump off" while their kids are tubing

(andy_nintzel)

I love bagging Necro or anything from Non Phixion over the tower speakers, another good one is that Luda Track where they chant "F-you" over and over again. I have people on my lake come up to me and tell me to turn it down cause there kids are outside. I just turn the radio up and act like I cant hear them. Needless to say most people on my lake hate me. Mainly because our wake is so big.

(chris_williams)

Haha nope necro usually never leaves the ear phones or vehicle. Mostly I listen all Tupacs boys when he was around like Spice 1, Shyne, MC Eight, SCC, CMW and all the songs with all of them together are good. All the og's from LA

Wu-Tang

(morty) · (morty) **Join Date: Oct 2006** 08-21-2007, 10:47 AM

I am a big Wu-Tang fan, and I just got a new cd that is so sick, Its by Guru and it's called Jazzmatazz Vol.4 the Hiphop Jazz Messenger. Also check out 7L&Esoteric, Apathy, Snowgoons, Cunninglynguists, Atmosphere, and Dilated Peoples. Those are some of my favorites, and these are not the stupid rappers that talk about ice and all that, it's a bit more intelligent.

(longlakerider)

tech n9ne- caribou lou
jedi mind tricks- all of theyre songs are sick
petey pablo-vibrate
dmx- lord give me a sign
t-pain- buy you drank
lil wayne- fireman
hurrican chris- a bay bay

almost all rap is good. anything with a thumping beat is even better

Andy, great list of artists. That should keep me busy on Limewire for weeks, but I'm curious about the attitude? If somebody actually comes up to you on the lake and asks you nicely to turn down the expletive loaded music because of their kids it seems like the reasonable thing to do, doesn't it?

I was out on the Delta last weekend with my kids and a bunch of their High School friends having a great time, privileged to be enjoying all the great stuff we have access to and I noticed my crew giving people that rode past kind of a hard time if they weren't throwin down some hot run or if they came a bit close to us or whatever (and we are nothing special in the riding department). When I called them on it they said it was all in jest, but I thought it was pretty intimidating and not friendly. All of us out there riding have got it so great it just kind of embarrasses me when we aren't more tolerant of others and supportive of our own. I don't know about you but I see the same people on the waters I use time after time. It's a small community and a resource we have to share fairly. Just my 02.

Eric's choices win, but he forgot Lil Flip, Triple 6, Young Jeezy, and Pastor Troy. You were right on with the ying yang twins though. HAAAANH!!!

(mjfan23) · (mjfan23) **Join Date: Nov 2003** 08-22-2007, 1:34 PM

what kind of rap do you people listen to!?! I sure as hell havnt heard of any of these people.. Ill have to check out some of this...

Nick - for owning almost every three six cd, not sure how I forgot to put them in the list lol.

(cali_rider) · (cali_rider) **Join Date: Feb 2004** 08-22-2007, 3:24 PM

(buffalow) · (buffalow) **Join Date: Apr 2002** 08-22-2007, 8:09 PM

You can buy the Delta Sessions 2 movie which inludes a sick soundtrack of west coast bands that are unsigned and supportive of wakeboarding. DS1 for that matter as well.

(cbass) · (cbass) **Join Date: Mar 2007** 08-23-2007, 7:30 AM

I would have to say chris and andy have the best selection. I only saw one person say blackalicious. If you havent listened to them you gotta pick up some of their albums. And as for erics list, I would have to say none of those but Bone are decent and I dont think I would even play them in the boat. Unless you wanna hear about a bunch of west side ridaz talking about slappin a hoe, rollin on dubs, or big body benz with 2 dollars worth of gas. Sorry for the rant, I am done. Anyways andys list is great. My top picks would be Jurassic5, blackalicious, swollen member, and sweatshop union.
