    It's amazing the crap you'll think of to avoid studying. Anyway, I was looking through my albums and noticed that I have almost a complete A to Z of artists. The only one I failed on was Y. I can only think of one rapper off hand whose name starts with Y, Yukmouth (sp) of Luniz.
    So anyway, anybody able to go one better and have a complete A to Z?
    Only rule is you have to have an album by the artist(s).

    So here was my list:

    A - A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders
    B - Brother Ali - Shadows on the Sun
    C - C-Rayz Walz - Ravipops
    D - DJ Shadow - Entroducing
    E - Eric B. & Rakim - Paid In Full
    F - Fingathing - The Main Event
    G - Gang Starr - Step in the Arena
    H - Hieroglyphics - Full Circle
    I - Immotal Technique - Revolutionary Vol. I
    J - Jurassic 5 - Quality Control
    K - KRS-One - I Got Next
    L - Lyrics Born - Later That Day
    M - Masta Ace - Disposable Arts
    N - Nas - Illmatic
    O - Organized Konfusion - Organized Konfusion
    P - Pete Rock - Soul Survivor
    Q - Quasimoto - The Unseen
    R - Ras Kass - Rasassination
    S - Sage Francis - A Healthy Distrust
    T - Tragedy Khadafi - Still Reporting
    U - Ugly Duckling - Fresh Mode
    V - Viktor Vaughn - Vaudeville Villain*
    W - Wu-Tang Clan - Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
    X - Xzibit - At The Speed of Life
    Y -
    Z - Zion I - True & Livin'


    Obviously there were letters with many different occurences of artists, I just picked most of them alphabetically.

    *If Viktor Vaughn doesn't count cos it's MF Doom, then Vakill - The Darkest Cloud

    Y looks like it's going to be the bogey for most people, unless they have a Young Buck album or something. I went looking for artists starting with Y and could only find 7 or 8.

    Cheaper to buy online. Sage Francis should be available in Tower.
    Never seen a Masta Ace album in Ireland, Immortal Technique basically sells all his cds through his website.

    I'm poor, leave me alone. Besides, if the choice comes between music and getting pissed off my brain and buying snack boxes there will be a swift and obvious decision. Bear in mind my musical tastes are not confined to the corporate stuff you've seen me mention above though.
