I'm hard thinking about a lot of these. Might it be a better year than 05' ?
DISCUSS, bitches.

--edit--
Also I'm not sure what order these are in... I think it's just random.

[EN[i]GMA]

No mention of Del's 11th hour shit?

[ASsman]

Buh, there are quiet a few missing, scrolled down and only saw 40...was like wtf.

[cj hood]

more like '40 upcoming hiphop albums'...

[ASsman]

Buh ,my bad, what I mean't.

Also not my list just found it..

[mickill]

There's no 2nd Dynasty album in the works; Rakim might not drop in '06, and I'm pretty sure they changed the album name, anyway; Ghost & Doom aren't calling their collaboration "The Pretty Toney Album, I'm sure; There's no date set for the Preemo & Nas collab; Dre? C'mon. 2009 maybe. Out of these, I'm looking forward to some new J-Zone, The Game, Stat Quo, maybe the Nas album and probably any Ghostface. The rest is whatever.

[ASsman]

Hmm, guy was a complete moron apparently... NEVER AGAIN!

[Deep_Sea_Rain]

Where is De La Soul's upcoming album Art Official Intelligence: Vol. 3?

[EN[i]GMA]

Yeah, I was a little surprised by the inclusion of the Pretty Toney album.

[roosta]

that list is based on hiphopsite.com's round up special. they only included "the dynasty 2" cuz one of the writers once in an editorial speculated that's what jay-z should do/would do, given his position in def jam, why they included it here when there's been absolutley no evidence of it is beyond me!

[The Notorious LOL]

why the hell would ghost name another record "the pretty toney album"

[mickill]

Maybe he's releasing a special 2 Year Anniversary Edition of The Pretty Toney Album.

Ghost's Fishscale LP drops Feb 28th.

[The Notorious LOL]

yeah thats probably it. A celebratory 2 year 850,000 copies sold re-release special edition version.

[mickill]

yeah thats probably it. A celebratory 2 year 850,000 copies sold re-release special edition version.
Nah man, Bulletpoof Wallets and Pretty Toney combined barely went gold together. It's a 2 year C'mon, It's Not A Bad Album Anniversary Edition.

[The Notorious LOL]

when I saw ghost live he kept ranting about how he "got hits for days" and I was thinking "didnt he bitch about how all you hear is X and Jigga on the radio a few years back and how he never gets airplay?"

[saml]

(y) :
madvillain 2
jay dilla - donuts
ghostface&mf doom
ghostface - fishscale
oh no meets galt macdermont
percee-p - perseverence
dangerdoom 2
madlib
gnarls barkley

[Deep_Sea_Rain]

In Mase's messy closet.

Most likely. I doubt we will ever see that album, but here's for hoping...

[adam_f]

Probably the only one looking forward to the new Busta.

[Qdrop]

i gotta question for the lot of you...

where to you guys get all your Hip-hop info from?
magazines, online, ...?

man...i can never keep up with this shit....

[ASsman]

man...i can never keep up with this shit....
Yah, I need some good info... Hiphopsite.com is ...aight... but there have to be more/better sites.

[Qdrop]

Yah, I need some good info... Hiphopsite.com is ...aight... but there have to be more/better sites.

i mean, i spend plenty of time online during work...
but seriously...how much time do mickill and notorius spend on amassing hip hop info....
how many magazines do you guys read? how many sites do you go to? when do you find time to spend reading all this shit?
i don't...

[ASsman]

Get fired, all the time in the world will come to you.

[mickill]

XXL and maybe the occasional Elemental are the only rap magazines I buy these days.

And I only check out SOHH daily, then various random sites for release dates and news when I'm in the mood.

i see.
you are dedicated.

So how come you never became a music journo, Mike?

You know your shit, and you're not a dick with it. I can't figure it out.

[faz]

1.Nas & DJ Premier-N/A 'Illmatic'
2.Outkast-Idlewild
7.The Roots-Game Theory
9.Aceyalone & RDJ2-Magnificant City
12.Danger Doom 2
16.Rakim-Oh My God
21.Dilated Peoples-20/20
23.Pete Rock-Black Magic

I'll probably check these out. Definatly pete rock. Dj Shadows new album is due out May...ish. Thats number one on my list.

[adam_f]

Mobb Deep hasn't been good since their debut if you ask me.

[Nygel]

2.Outkast-Idlewild

12.Danger Doom 2

21.Dilated Peoples-20/20


god i hope dangerdoom 2 is sweet... mince meat is my favorite track. i want the detox album by dre..... but since it just keeps gettin pushed back... maybe in like 08 or somethin i can have it for a graduation present

[mickill]

Mobb Deep hasn't been good since their debut if you ask me.
I'm pretty sure you're talking about The Infamous because their actual debut was definitely not their best work. But I disagree, anyway. How could you buy Will Smith albums but sleep on the M.O.B.B.?


So how come you never became a music journo, Mike?

You know your shit, and you're not a dick with it. I can't figure it out.

I'd rather do something with my time that would encourage someone write about me.

[The Notorious LOL]

everybody and their sister hates on Murder Muzik but I thought it was good.

[The Notorious LOL]

i mean, i spend plenty of time online during work...
but seriously...how much time do mickill and notorius spend on amassing hip hop info....
how many magazines do you guys read? how many sites do you go to? when do you find time to spend reading all this shit?
i don't...


good memory, mostly. I check hiphopsite occasionally.

[mickill]

1. The Infamous
2. Hell On Earth
3. Murda Muzik
4. Amerikaz Nightmare
5. Infamy
6. Juvenile Hell

That's the order you should cop their albums in. Infamy's actually not that bad, but there's so much filler. Burn was like their best song since The Infamous days, though. And Hell On Earth shouldn't be living in the shadow of The Infamous like it is; It more than lived up to expectations considering what they were trying to follow/top.

[Rip Round'n Roc]

no raekwon only built for cuban linx 2? and u know that shit is dropping this year "state of grace"?

and no saigon 'greatest story never told'? personally i think saigon will be the biggest new rapper to come out in 06, much like game kanye and 50 were in the years that have past. Just Blaze personnally scouted this dude and is the executive producer of the album. if you like public enemy, nas or old ice cube you'll like saigon's stuff "color puple", "letter p", "stocking cap", "come again"

no mop?

[mickill]

While I don't really see the connection between PE and Saigon, I'm definitely looking forward to Greatest Story Never Told. I don't think he'll be doing 50 numbers, though. I don't think he'll even be doing Yayo numbers, to tell you the truth.

[roosta]

im looking forward to

Cannibal Ox
Soulposition
Dilated
El-P
Ghostface
Ghostface/Doom
Nas/Primo (not holding my breath tho)
The Roots
Aceyalone & RDJ2
Saigon

i will pray daily to Yahweh, Jesus, Allah and all the Hindu gods for Nas/Primo, but i just cant see it happening THIS year. Primo's too busy producing for Christina, and Nas is too busy passing on good beats.

[Monsieur Decuts]

man o man

Dres told me his album would be out summer 2005...now what...its not even on this list?

Come on Blacksheep don't fuck with me

[laserx54]

Primo's too busy producing for Christina, .



as in Aguilera..? Say it ain't so

[roosta]

as in Aguilera..? Say it ain't so

yup. he's doing a couple of tracks for her. he said so himself in an interview. apparently she wanted who ever produced biggie's "kick in the door"

[g-mile7]

1.Nas & DJ Premier-N/A 'Illmatic'
2.Outkast-Idlewild
7.The Roots-Game Theory
9.Aceyalone & RDJ2-Magnificant City
12.Danger Doom 2
16.Rakim-Oh My God
21.Dilated Peoples-20/20
23.Pete Rock-Black Magic

I'll probably check these out. Definatly pete rock. Dj Shadows new album is due out May...ish. Thats number one on my list.



agreed, and the Raekwon lp I wnat to see if he can at least make it decent given it is called "Only built for cuban linx 2"

[faz]

Oh. And I'm adding DJ Yodas new album to that list as a definite

[Wino King]

RAKIM for sure, Outkast, Maybe Mobb Deep, and Im lookin forward to the New Soul Assassin Colab. Which is suppose to come out in 06

[g-mile7]

Saigon should be a good pick up' and Mos Def if it does come out this year as planned

[The Notorious LOL]

I had a Saigon mixtape a couple months back ago. Hes good, but its just kind of more of the same to me. I cant imagine going out of my way to check his LP.

well he is taken his sweet time with it (it was supposed to drop last year if I remember right) and alot of his rhymes arent the typical "blow you up hata" type of deal so we will see, he got a brain on him that he uses pretty well and Just Blaze lacing him with tracks, that should at least equate to something better then the average, same goes with the Primo/Nas colab

[Gareth]

i'd like new lps from freeway and clipse

[Auton]

Cannibal Ox
Outkast
Ghostface
Ghostface and Doom

Yeah, that's what I meant. Anyway, Will Smith albums are albums like Mase's 'Welcome Back' (which I remember you kinda liked). Pretty bad albums that have their moments.

I'm not saying M.O.B.B. don't have their moments, I just feel that what they've done after the Infamous has been pretty weak. That's all.
