'98 Classics... A Decade Ago

[Omero's Daddy]

A Thread to appreciate the heat that dropped a decade ago. '88 was golden, A fine year '98 was, i predict the same for '08.

Black Star - Black Star (August 25 1998)


Gang Starr - Momment of Truth (March 31 1998)


Pete Rock - Soul Survivor ()


Sunz of Man - The Last Shall Be First

[K9 tha Pedigree]

I think 08 will be memorable for SA hip hop, dont know bout the states. Especially for the kind of albums you mentioned. Nyambo do you seriously think you can find such albums in 2008

[Omero's Daddy]

I think it will be a good year locally. In the past we just had cats with talent. Now we have talented cats who have the ability to channel that talent into making better songs, better albums, better videos, etc.

I don't know how much of a success it will be monetarily, but i do feel it will a notoriously remembered year, for SA. I think there will be some "Hits" but this year will ultimately be remembered for the "Albums".

co sign, it really feels like this the year that shit finally comes together for SA artists, looks like corporates are willing to take shit on e.g Red Bull getting with words @ short notice. Hopefully cats can also follow that up with mad projects.Kenny also hooking mad cats who are real, hopefully he can make it bigger with these cats hookin up workshops and ishh.
