For those interested, 9thmatic alongside Dr. Mark Anthony Neal will be speaking at Duke University on Nas’ masterpiece album (right now), and a live stream (seen above) will allow everyone from all over to tune in. See, Ustream is actually used for something other than homoerotic jibba jabba.

hey tuned in. thanks for the head up.
who cares… he didnt work on this album and yet to do a beat that is better than anything primo, pete rock, l.p. or even q-tip done
Meka is a yenta Nas hater.
Hip Hop in the 90′s > the oversaturated, quantity-over-quality, debacle of a game that exists today.
i’m in the class room. going to duke ftw.
this is dope!
meka was the email adress for the live braodcast so we can send questions?
this is ill. wonder how often they gonna do this…
>meka was the email adress for the live braodcast so we can send questions?>
i don’t know, but they’ve said it throughout.live[at]duke.eduthe class is every tuesday night but the streaming is only tonight.
Lol at mentioning Charles Hamilton during an Illmatic conversation.
^^i fuckin died… “charles hampton? why we talking about him”
9th is on point about the nas/hov shit.
What 9th say about jay?
my internet is to slow for this. just another way colleges aint helping out the hood
9th with ONP in the Top 5.
Only caught about the last 20 min. but it was good.
lol at 9th’s reaction to Peterson putting Lupe in the top 5, and the hate on Drake throughout.
My jealousy level is about a level 9.8 right now if you are sitting in that class.
9th was definitely on par with the Jay vs Nas thing. Thats what Im always sayin too, Jay summed up Nas’ whole career to that point in a couple of lines. Nas was the first one to devote a whole song to Hov.
who was Peterson’s top 5? i forget the 5th.. black thought jay lupe and krs… whos the 5th
@Mike
i think he had Nas, but Im not sure
This was great to listen to.
What I learned about these peoples opinions:
No love for Drake, Charles Hamilton (why bring him up?). The jury’s still out on J.Cole, Blu and the younger generation (as it should be). Dilla’s more of a beat maker than a producer.
They need more of this. If this was every Tuesday I would watch.
that shit was really dope; i’m glad i was able to catch it
@TheFuckingTruth what are you referring to? I only caught the 10 mins of the stream
WOW only caught the back end but what i saw was dope. Gotta catch a recording. And i SOOOO co-sign James Pattersons TOP 5. And 9th was on point with 3Stacks knockin on the door.
9ths reaction to Charles Hamilton being brought up has to be one of the funniest things ive ever seen. Co-sign James Peterson on Lupe as well. I love the golden era as much as anyone but its not like there arnt guys, like lupe, in this modern era that are as talented. Lupe happens to be that talented and uses that talent.
@Esdot
They brought up the topic of the Jay-Z/Nas beef
ill update this with the video once duke uploads it.
Missed a good grip of this. Can somebody fill me in on what was being discussed??
“who was Peterson’s top 5? i forget the 5th.. black thought jay lupe and krs… whos the 5th”
i sweat he only went with 4. he didnt put nas though.
youtbe?
^ he said Kool G Rap as well.
When 9th named all those albums that came out in a 6 month span, I just busted out laughing cause I was only like one years old then yet I have either heard or have a couple of the albums he named. On my iPod of course but still. Lol
Nah, I think MAN said Kool G Rap
Meka << HEY THANKS they put it up nehoo. the job was done .
9th can eat a dick on the ch and lupe hate somebody tell 9th to make a beat that dont sound like every other beat he made
I wonder if we can download this I completely missed this.
Any links to watch this for those who missed it?
9ths Discography and consistency has been impressive. Every true producer has a signature sound. Its always been this way and always will be.
They stream that, but how can I watch it now?
yeh anyone got any links to a recorded version? missed this..
