Just picked this up yesterday. Great game.

I can't believe all the underground hip hop they have in this game. They got Mr Lif, Cannibal Ox, People under the Stairs, Juggaknots, Quasimoto, Jurassic 5, Busdriver, and MANY more!

If anyone has this and plays it online, let me know how it is!

"YOYOYOYOYO MY RHYMES BE LIKE COMPUTER PROGRAMMING ON SURFBOARDS IN FRANCE / ANTS IN MY PANTS"

Yall think that's intellectual hip hop? Damn, you must not have heard any of those artist's shit. That shit is straight about dope beats. I mean, People under the stairs about intellectual hip hop??? Quasimoto? What the fuck have yall been listening to? The only people that have the dope rhymes out of the artists listed would be cannibal ox and busdriver. And they definitely aren't about breathing air in space and shit. Cannibal Ox has some of the sickest beats I've ever heard. Their lyrics too, damn
Check these by Vast from Cannibal Ox:

"And if there's crack in a basement
Crack heads stand adjacent
Anger displacement
Two step arangements
You were a still born baby
Mother didn't want you, but you were still born
Boy meets world, of course his pops is gone
What you figga
That chalky outline on the ground is a father figure
So he steps to the next stencil, that's a hustler
Infested with money and diamond cluster
Lets talk in laymen terms
Rotten apples and big worms
Early birds and poachers
New York is evil at it's core, so those who have more than them
Prepare to be vic-tims
Ate up by vultures, the politicians
In a dog eat dog culture, that'll sick 'em
Lack of mineral, we take it personal
A pigeon can't drop shit if it never flew
Every day is no frills, empty krills
Broken 40 bottles and m.c's with skills
I rest my head on 115
But miracles only happen on 34th, so I guess life is mean
And death is the median
And pergatory is the mold that we settle in
"No doubt"
I've got that Eve's Bayou sense of touch
So I fought, to touch every hand of a fan to read their thoughts
Battered wives, molested children
Roaches on the floor, rats in the ceiling
Cats walk around New York with two fillin's
One is in their mouth the other, does the killin'
I'm Vast Air, Kramer, top billin'"
Cannibal Ox - Iron Galaxy

"check this situation, I wore my lust like cologne
she called it Obsession
the background's black and white and we adolescents
like what the fuck we know about love?
the more I learn it's like the Clash of the Titans
all I wanna do is avoid fightin'
a little arguing's okay but not everyday
and if we can't communicate what we got decays
until the smell gets more pungent
to the point where we can't be seen in public
body parts fallin' apart, a symbol of what things do
or better yet, a symbol of what friends do, they die
and together forever just sounds fly
that's how it sounded to me when I heard it
and slow motion was her lips as she worded
the f word
don't take it personal, I like you a lot but I don't wanna lose what we got
but what we got now is friction
she tellin' me intimacy and friendship she ain't mixin'
the f word"
Cannibal Ox - The F Word

Yall really need to expand what you listen to, there's a lot of shit that's out now, that's tight.

I love ol rap, but damn yall, there's been some progress since then. Check out some of this shit. It's tight as fuck.

Silver, if you like that song, you should pick up their album, called "the cold vein". It's one of my top 10 favorite albums.

Also, the production was done by a producer/rapper/label ceo named El-P (formerly of Company Flow). He owns the label Def Jux, which dropped the cannibal ox LP, and he also produced every beat on their album. He has his own album called "Fantastic Damage" that's off the hook too.

No Hiero, but they have a Living Legends track on there. They also got a track by Murs from the Living Legends on there. It's a track off his latest album "end of the begining" put out by def jux.

Cannibal Ox is 2 rappers, Vast Aire Kramer and Vordul Megallah. I posted some lyrics from vast towards the top.

I think their album is the shit, check it for yourself and see what you think.

A homey told me to pick up his album, but I never got it. After I heard him on this Tony Hawk game I might have to check him out. His voice kind of sounds like Gift of Gab from Blackalicious, and the muthafucka spits HELLA fast through the whole track. The beat was kind of stupid, sounded like one of those Nickatina beats that sample classical music, but not as tight. But the muthafucka can spit.
