Hip-Hop

[EighteenSixty7]

Released this week, another album full of bangers from them.

[One Tonne Baby]

hoping for at least one old skool hip hop act, Tribe would be my number one. I watched Jurassic 5 on tv at last glasto and they looked amazing and know they are touring the uk at some point this year.

I've not listened to Snoop for a long long time but his new album really is magnificent. No lyrical masterpiece but he fits the brilliant production to a tee. Potential for a summer soundtrack album.

Been banging out R.A.P. Music this afternoon. Crazy album. Can't get enough of this one:

yep incredible album that. doesn't get nearly as much recognition as it should - especially since it was a taste of things to come for Run The Jewels the following year

Is there any hope for MF Doom? I've been having a hip hop kinda day and tonight I've been revisiting Viktor Vaughn, my favourite of all his manifestations. Makes me hope he's at Glastonbury 2015.

Even if he was announced I wouldn't hold out much hope, he flaked on the FlyLo gig he was supposed to be playing last week.

yeah came in to say the same thing - he's an unreliable bastard. feel lucky to have seen him at Bestival in 2012, but would love for him to be booked (and show up) at Glasto

This should be of interest to people seeking a hip hop fix. Self confirmed for two slots and she seems really quite good. Check it out.

Earl Sweatshirt & BADBADNOTGOOD, two artists I hope will make the final line-up.

Still holding out for Doomtree (well, really I'm holding out for a POS solo set, but if he's touring with Doomtree I'm not sure if that's likely)

I went to see Dessa a few weeks back and saw her outside the venue before hand, I asked if she would be at Glastonbury and she said something along the lines of "It's looking that way". Given Doomtree are performing in London the few days before Glastonbury I would say the chances are looking good. Whoever runs the Doomtree FB account has also alluded to them playing, responding to a message from my friend who asked about Glastonbury positively. I hope I'm not setting myself up for a fall, but I will now be surprised if they're not announced. The new album is superb so I really really hope they are added.

Ah yeah, just saw the tour dates. Shame that. Still you never know.

they played to a pretty indifferent crowd in the middle of the day on WH in 2013, but i loved it. would be great to have them back

[DefLeppard]

Do you think there is much chance of Kid Ink playing? He is playing Wireless on Sunday 28th June.

[EighteenSixty7]

If only we could have Snoop playing Bush in full on a sunny late evening. I can't stop listening to this album.

[EZYSEY]

Just looked through the Common lineup and theres a bit of hip hop there. particularly made to see The Mouse Outfit on there. A proper hip hop band from Manchester with Dr Syntax and Sparx.

Yeah really liking Mouse Outfit at the moment. New album is great.

Akala in the Rum Shack! That's gone straight onto my must see list.

Winslow im so excited for this set. Such an amazing rapper, interesting life also his journey is told very well in his music. Got a good message attatched to his music which can only be respected, does anyone think he could play anywhere else?

He could, but why would you want him to? He's playing in an intimate venue, and on the Thursday so clashes are far less likely. I say go for it!

He's a very intelligent, eloquent guy. I want a show that's just him and Killer Mike discussing the world's problems.

[danwood]

Im definitely going to the thursday gig anyway, always liked the look of the rum shack. Just thought a chance he could pop up somewhere else, had a couple chances to see him but both fell through. Was just listening to his fire in the booths again to get hyped! Have you seen him on question time destroying Tommy Robinson, ex-BNP i think.
