[storrsroars]

Hip-hop and R&B is such a blind spot for this board, like the other day when someone posted something about Eminem being the only good white rapper.

He's the king. No other white rapper comes remotely close.

Em's great and in the mix but Nas, Rakim, Biggie, Pac, Jay-Z, Kool G Rap, Ice Cube, Andre 3000, Big Pun, Common, Black Thought etc. would have something to say about it.

Have no problem putting him in the top 10.

I figured it would have been this.

Ini Kamoze is a pretty well known reggae artist.

I’m definitely not the best guitarist but I have the coolest rig in rock and roll

All those effect pedals just to sound like a twangy Dead guitar rythm?

You might want to consider adding some of those stainless steel handrails like old people have in the tub.

Burned out on this one commuting in the '70's...must've played it every 30 minutes in San Francisco. Understand the group was having lunch and "Afternoon Delight" was on the menu, and it got written right there...
