His flow gets extremely old on this album by the midway point for me & the beat selection is also pretty weak for a decent amount of the tracks. His newer stuff is significantly better even though I am still not a huge fan of even that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Barkley Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Any word on the Classic or Hiphop? If I remember correctly I think it's suppose to be "Paid in Full" by Eric B and Rakim, but im not sure if I am just pulling that out of my ass.

RowBearToe Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 From the forum: I told Storf our best guesses so far were: Classics, Professor Longhair - Rum & Coke James Booker - The Lost Paramount Tapes RHH, MC Lyte - Lyte as a Rock Queen Latifah - All Hail The Queen His response: “You guys have them both.” Charles Barkley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm stuck with Unapologetic Art Rap I couldn't find anything to swap for it, so I having never heard it just accepted it. I'm sure there's no chance I'll be able to recoup what it cost, but ah well. Charles Barkley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onandonandon Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I was never able to get the referral system to work so I am still looking to pick up this release. I’ll happily grab it from you if you want to let it go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Barkley Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) Whoops. Damn, dirty double-post. Um, I guess I will announce to the whole thread that I probably won’t re-up unless there is a swap that hooks me.

imnothardcore Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I mostly listen to like punk/thrash/some metal/some classics is this club worth looking into? I don't really listen to a ton of hip hop (but I do listen to music across the spectrum the above are just my typically preferred categories) if you're curious here is my collection so far: https://www.discogs.com/user/imnothardcore/collection I don't mind exploring new music but this club doesn't seem to cater to individual styles, right? Its an everyone gets the same record if I understand correctly? Another reason Im undecided is I did a random 5 record buy one time and it was all indie hot trash ( I just gave most of them away they were worth like $2-5ea on ebay ) so I wasn't into it. Does this club deliver more "valuable" music in any of your opinions? Thanks in advance for any input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It leans heavy indie, hip hop and jazz/blues type stuff. In my 2 years of membership there hasn't been one punk or metal album of the month.

If you ever hear of something that you’d want, you can sign up for a month and then drop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If those are the only genres you enjoy then you're not going to get any value out of the club. I feel like the only thing I've even seen them offer along those lines as far as exclusives go is the new Deafheaven record. That being said, I have found it very useful for discovering new music so if you're open to other stuff it might be worth checking out. Currently they have three "tracks" to choose from every month. Essentials (which is mostly indie stuff from the 2000s to now), Hip Hop and Classics (soul, jazz, stuff along those lines). Dig around on their webstore and discogs and you can see all of their releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah besides Deafheaven, only other one I can think of was a High on Fire release. If you consider RATM metal, then there's another one.

Charles Barkley Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Saw the swaptions, looks like I am not re-upping. Most of what they offer I have already picked up, and those that I haven’t are cheaper on discogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kas1985 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Okay, so it isn't just me. The options for swaps this month are awful. If I had the option of skipping this month, I would. I'm locked in through October though. I had initially planned on getting the Miles Davis/John Coltrane Live in Paris album, but it disappeared from the swap options pretty quick.

sinking_in_design Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Swapped for Demon Days even though i already have it. Was also going to get the Miles Davis Coltrane, but wasn't available. It seems Ive swapped every two releases. It might be time to cancel.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
