    .......snip.

    Actually the oysters from France are pretty fukin' good. And he's right, the local environment controls so much of the taste of an oyster that it can't be replicated in other places.

    Mr Dash made the mistake of not say to the server "separate bills please"
    Trust me she would've had a salad and a glass of water.

    Up the herringbones and bamboos
    I wouldn't give a fuck if you're pregnant

    Thread drift, but that’s the worst line Biggie ever had. I can’t listen to that song. Crossed a line, think of a better way to tell the world how hard you are Biggie.

    Everyone knows that the Wu, Beasties, Tribe, Gang Starr and the entire De La fam are better EC Hip Hop than anything Biggie put out.

    Oooh, KRS-One too.

    Truth.
    I still call it The Jake.

    NAS Illmatic has to be in that list.

    Biggie - Ready to Die was so good. Warning, Suicidal Thoughts, Juicy. Great album.

    Your list is good, but AK is right, has to include Nas…. and Jay-Z.

    And you guys know how I feel about the Beastie Boys, but their stage show directed by Spike Jonze was really good. It’s on Apple TV if you haven’t seen it.

    Beasties ARE Hip Hop. (Yes I know your position) but to quote Q-Tip when asked about their inclusion on the 50th anniversary stuff, he replied, “y’all don’t know your history”.

    I feel like Nas is painfully overrated.

    JayZ is good but gets beat on his own albums by just about everyone

    Beasties are fun but not great lyricists

    De La/JBs hold up. Tribe doesn’t seem to hold up as well

    Agree w all of the above. I'm an old school hip hop head. Grew up mid 80s early 90s sk8ing. Not too many white kids listening to jb, tribe, krs1 etc.

    Yeah I reference biggie talking about ho's not kids. A little harsh for sure.

    But believing my host, I took the plunge and ordered a dozen wild harbor oysters. All seemed well until later that evening when the severe stomach cramping and vomiting set in. Not wanting to miss my flight back to the US, I struggled to get to Charles-de-Gaulle the next morning still dealing with some lingering effects.

    I managed to board the plane and took my seat next to another Frenchman. You can't avoid them in France. 30 minutes into the flight he orders the cheese platter with the stinkiest cheeses known to man. That sent me running to the bathroom for yet another session of vomiting. I spent most of the flight in that bathroom--it had a small window and I seriously thought about breaking it and jumping into the Atlantic and joining the oysters.
    This is great but would have been more better in Papa Hemmingway alias with subtle literary references.

    “You can’t avoid them” is something that made me laugh and I’ll remember.

    And I speak (very poor), and love French.

    Newer NAS I’d agree it’s overrated. But illmatic is a masterpiece.

    A Dating Dilemma

    Nas is inconsistent - but when at his best he’s top 10 no question. His recent collabs with Hit-Boy have generated some great tracks.

    I grew up on west coast more than east coast - Ice-T “Power” and shit like that.

    And Jay-Z is top 5 - can’t argue with the career he has had. But yeah some of his guest features have matched or surpassed him at times.

    https://youtu.be/gwbUtfEJ8lE?si=clDxTrxRdqn_0FG6

    Regardless I wouldn’t quote their worst lines in a thread about dating - but Byates has been on a roll displaying his class.

    I'm fine with the oysters. We put down a couple dozen here weekly.

    It's her nails that keep me scrolling. Ick.

    And DeLaSoul were latecomers. Howzabout Grandmaster Flash, Fab 5 Freddy, etc.
