In 2001, Nas made a major comeback after his previous two albums were not received well by fans. After being dissed by Jay-Z, there was talk that his career was on the outs.

6 Feet Deep

Bring The Noise Podcast

10/28/24 • 53 min

To end the month of October, we had to save the best for last. Arguably the best album in in the horrorcore genre, we give you 6 Feet Deep from group Da Gravediggaz released in ‘94. Considered a super group consisting of producer Prince Paul (The Undertaker), rappers Fruitkwan (The Gatekeeper), Poetic (The Grim Reaper), and the RZA (The RZArector), all assuming graveyard style names. It is the perfect blend of beats and rhymes to create a spooky atmosphere and definitely the pinnacle of slasher hip-hop.

Dr. Octagonecologyst

Bring The Noise Podcast

10/21/24 • 51 min

This week we review the reknowned classic Dr. Octagonecologyst from Dr. Octagon, aka Kool Keith. Released in ‘96, this was a debut solo album for Keith after splitting from the Ultramagnetic MCs, where he assumes the character Dr. Octagon who is a homicidal, extraterrestrial, time-traveling gynecologist-surgeon. This is a must listen for anyone who loves horrorcore as the beats from Dan the Automater create a bizzare, psychedelic feel with Keith's outlandish lyrics, making it perfect for the season.

Tragedy:Saga Of A Hoodlum

Bring The Noise Podcast

08/05/24 • 56 min

On this episode, we review the 2nd LP from Queens rapper Tragedy Khadafi, titled Tragedy: Saga Of A Hoodlum. Known at the time as The Intelligent Hoodlum, Tragedy stuck to his street roots and strong political beliefs, crafting a well-rounded album. K-Def, Marly Marl as well as a few others brought this album full circle with it's production. This album tends to be a forgotten gem as it gets lost in the shuffle of 1993, which was a heavy year for successful hip-hop music releases.

Bring The Noise Podcast

06/24/24 • 74 min

On this episode, we review one of the greatest hip-hop albums ever made. We're talking about the 1993 classic, Return Of The Boom Bap from KRS-One. After releasing five albums with Boogie Down Productions, KRS-One went solo. He recruited different producers, most notably DJ Premier, to reinvent his career and create a hip-hop album created solely for the hardcore heads. Just as he tells us on the title track, Return Of The Boom Bap means the return of the real hard beats and real rap!

Episode 90 is a review of the second LP from hip-hop duo Nice & Smooth, titled Ain't A Dam Thing Changed, released in 1991. The group's second album builds on what they created on their first, where they blend singing, harmonies, ill beats and raps to create a well-rounded album. With hits like Sometimes I Rhyme Slow and Hip-Hop Junkies, this album showcases the eclectic style of Greg Nice and Smooth B, which gained the respect of the most hardcore rappers of their time.

Strictly 4 My N.#.G.G.#.Z...

While Tupac is well known for his later albums, his first two LPs rarely get recognition they deserve. His 1993 sophomore effort, Strictly for My N.#.G.G.#.Z., was the album that jump started his career. With hits like I Get Around and Keep Ya Head Up, Pac is in revolutionary mode, much like his peers Public Enemy and Ice Cube, creating an album we believe can rival the likes of his most popular.
