Who were the guys at the Ludacris show he did for homecoming last year... Was that Little Brother, if they are as good as you say they are i'll give them a listen

8/26/2005 11:25:18 AM

Haha, decided I better not go there, haha, I'll leave it like this, don't feel like goin to your level packguy and just talkin shit. I'm here to talk about music, if you don't like Kanye, then PLEASE get the fuck out.

All the people on the "Little Brother" bandwagon, I wish those guys the best of luck and I'll check out the album, but why not start ANOTHER thread dedicated to it instead of cluttering this one.

we're laughing at you because little brother is mainstream

they already had a critically acclaimed album



regardless of what you do or dont listen to

you come across as that guy that turns on Direct FX everyday and derives all music experience from it.

i dont like most underground stuff, im definitely not a backpacker, in the negative sense of the word, nor really in the positive

im just saying















you sound gay.

8/26/2005 3:05:11 PM

Not going to start stupid shit on here, go about your business.

that listens to dashboard confessional

8/26/2005 3:07:19 PM

I'm just saying

8/26/2005 3:07:23 PM

dude i love kanye

i think he's a great artist



but im not trying to stick my dick in him

8/26/2005 3:08:03 PM

Haha, well, if you read my post and the whole time were thinking about putting a dick in a guy, well that's not my problem man, that's yours.


I said I didn't think Kanye would have the album of the year, I only said it was the best SO FAR, and that means that it isn't better than "Little Brother" since it hasn't even dropped yet. And I was only stating that unlike a lot of artists, his second album was pretty good. Now what part of that is gay?

8/26/2005 3:11:21 PM

hahaha ok

well im going to go listen to that guy, "A Tribe called Quest" now. i heard he's hot!!!

HOTTT!!!!!!

8/26/2005 3:17:45 PM

8/26/2005 4:19:58 PM

i dont know how mainstream little brother really is...i mean just cause local cats know who they are...ask some average people from different parts of the country if they've heard of little brother...they're not mainstream just cause they're well known in the triangle of north carolina

8/26/2005 4:48:16 PM

they're mainstream b/c of 9th.

like in that regard

if youre talking hip hop fans, not just a random sampling of the music listening population

8/26/2005 5:27:01 PM

we'll agree to disagree

8/26/2005 5:30:15 PM

hahaha packguy you're killin me!!

8/27/2005 11:46:50 AM

how many times have you heard LB in a club? or seen them on rap city? or heard them on a radio station outside of north carolina? they're not mainstream

8/27/2005 8:36:51 PM

^exactly. their upcoming release is actually on a big label which may potentially help things - but LB is definitely not mainstream, not super well-known, but, might I add: The Chitlin Circuit 1.5 Mixtape is definitely solid

-ZiP!-

8/28/2005 3:03:08 AM

Haha, yay, SUPPORT!

Yeah, maybe after this cd drops and that video gets some play time and their songs get some air time, then MAYBE they'll be mainstream, and hopefully being on a major label will help. But like I said, they aren't mainstream, just building hype locally, but give them time, the one song I heard would make a good club beat.

8/28/2005 3:07:32 AM

Suge Knight took a bullet at Kanye's party last night.

8/28/2005 11:11:37 AM

if LB goes "mainstream" all the fair weather fans are gonna hop on board and i'm not sure that i want that. just because its not on some lil jon type shit doesnt mean its bad/good, mainstream/underground. it's good music period. its nice to hear a rap song in which guns/coke/hoes/chains aren't mentioned. there's more to life than that and there is more to hip hop than that.

8/28/2005 12:20:27 PM

for those of you who have never heard of Little Brother or any of the Justus League, here's a video for Little Brother's "Lovin it" single from his new album The Minstrel Show:

for people who dont buy WOW! albums

they're pretty well known....

8/28/2005 11:13:35 PM

track #3 is kinda the heat

and dont even deny it

[Edited on August 29, 2005 at 1:12 PM. Reason : i saw that LB video hosted on like vibe.com or somethin like that, good stuff]

8/29/2005 1:10:35 PM

you know Little Brother doesnt like it when people call their tracks by track # and not title

8/29/2005 1:29:07 PM

Dang, didn't even know they still made those, haha, but apparently you did, I'm guessing your a closet Hanson fan(given they are still alive) or something, haha.

And NO they are not mainstream, get that thought out of your head. You ask people not from the Raleigh-Durham area and they don't know who Little Brother is, but with them being picked up by Atlantic, and an album about to hit the stores with the ratings it is said to have, I give them a few months and they will be mainstream(video on tv, single on the radio, etc.) and most of the people that like them now will be saying, "I knew them before they got big" or "there underground stuff was tight but this new shit is whack".

Anyone with sense in this thread DOES however, realize that they are a group you should have heard of, if you have any semblance of taste when it comes to hip-hop, which you obviously do not

if you were down like that, you wouldn't be asking "who is this little brother dude" because you'd have heard of this cat called 9th Wonder(WHO IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A FOREFRONT PRODUCER AND THERE IS NO SARCASM IN THIS SENTENCE), and you can't read a damn 9th article without reading some mention of Little Brother, considering that HES PART OF THE GROUP.

what is he? a pyramid rapper or something? what is going on?

8/29/2005 2:24:19 PM

i heard he's a tall dude

8/29/2005 2:24:43 PM

seriously though

they're not mainstream except in raleigh and durham

and that doesnt classify them as mainstream

8/29/2005 2:25:20 PM

you can argue the semantics of mainstream all day

ill concede mainstream was a poor word choice given that their relevance has only spread so far as the hip-hop community,

therefore cementing my assertion that ludachris is "that guy"

8/29/2005 2:26:40 PM

actually treetwista they have a fairly decent following all over the states, canada, and europe

My fiance's younger brother in Rochester, NY said he knows them and so do his friends.

Kinda... its a metaphor for his secret society ties. Its a big mess involving the black free masons and the NWOA. Just look at how Chappelle got taken out when the truth behind Black Bush was exposed. Shit is whack, yo.

i know about a lot of underground cats from out of state too, dosent make them mainstream

until you see them all over rap city and hear them after usher and before lil jon in the clubs...they're not mainstream

its not bad or good its just how it is

8/29/2005 4:02:48 PM

i just addressed that

they're definitely not underground

aka

if this kid is the head he thinks he is

he shouldnt be coming across like he is

however i conceded that they aren't mainstream, and that it was the wrong choice of wording

8/29/2005 4:20:03 PM

so they're not mainstream or underground.....om....uh

8/29/2005 4:29:26 PM

well, we can agree

tony yayo sounds like a retarded ma$e

id like to further say that i've never heard LB on my Sirius radio. perhaps coincidence, perhaps not, but i have yet to see it come up on shade45 or hip hop nation, correct me if you've seen otherwise.

8/30/2005 10:07:46 PM

i do try to spread the LB gospel on Internet jukeboxes that have The Listening

8/30/2005 10:14:29 PM

what is the shit about an "indian dance to bring our rain back" in diamonds from sierra leone?

8/30/2005 10:18:59 PM

bring our reign back

that line made more sense when the song was about the Roc-A-Fella label, which it was originally was (and i liked much more)

til this fake ass dude tried to get all concious....fuck it dont even get me started read my past post and you'll get what ima bout to say

but goddamn i love the beats
