Personal: Slow down and enjoy an album before moving on to the newest release. I notice myself doing this far too often. This year more than ever. The spoils of having access to all the piff that is released. It's a gift and a curse I tell ya.

Hip Hop Music: Continue to grow. Continue with this trend of well known vets on the boards working with young, hungry up and coming talent on albums. More surprises like El-P and Killer Mike's album. Turned out to be one of the top releases of the years. So more of that.

:obama:

personal: trim down my collection, i keep too much mediocre music. even if i gotta do something i dont usually do, and just recycle bin the weaker tracks off some projects

hip-hop: maybe ive been listening for too long, but outside a few albums and tapes from my favorites, hip hop hasn't been moving me like it used to this year and even last year. 2012 wasn't bad though overall, i hope we keep the pace going for 2013. im okay with less "free albums" if it would help shift the focus to more really good retail albums from artists. i want to feel obliged to support


i also dont want rappers like common to put out mixtapes. legends in the game shouldn't have to do any of that shyt, thats for young guns :thumbsdown:

Not really a resolution but I think I'm starting to move away from a lot of mainstream modern hip-hop. Not completely but I'm getting interested in lyrics again. I still don't like extreme lyricism but there's a medium that a few rappers reach that really keeps me interested. I'm also starting to appreciate less cussing in a song. There's still a bunch of times were I'll play some bangers and just crazy ass shyt, but for the most part I'm enjoying older hip-hop.

Not even trying to be a elitist, just heard that new wayne track, and was bored cause I've already him make the same music in the same way a billion times. Same goes for people like Wiz and them

Then I highly recommend you check out my music. Its fresh, progressive hip-hop and all the lyrics are included. Enjoy.:steviej:

:pachaha: You gonna be a real old man before that happens again.

2013 better be on some groundbreaking shyt that will shape the rest of the 2010s decade. No more 808s and snares, no more trendhopping, and no more simping on hoes.

Another one is that Hip Hop need to make LESS music than before. Too much music = people taking your shyt for granted.

Sup Coli family. I hope the New Year is finding ya in good spirits. I wanted to give ya an early 2013 treat by giving out FREE copies of the Dark Prince-@whoisDarkPrince EP CD! These are official like a referee with a whistle and come in plastic wrapping over a CD sleeve/jacket and artwork on the disc. All you have to do is PM me your name/address/email address and Ill send these out asap. :win:

Ive already begun putting the pieces in motion to record my 2nd project, Musique Noire-A Love Story. Look for that in the spring and until then, Ill be leaking whatever I can sneak past my team-starting with these 2 tracks: "So Prolific" & "Breaking Bad", both produced by Berdz of THE AVENGERS. Leave any thoughts, feedback, impressions, etc and as always thanks for all the support & luv. ENJOY
