Looking Back: Your verdict on Little Brother's "The Listening" LP. I was listening to it the other day and remembered how it was a refreshing at the time to hear an album like that. Yes, I'm from NC so I was proud but I'm not bias. It's not the best LP of all time but a DOPE LP to me. I do believe it was like 4.5 mics though and that is my honest opinion. I believe it influenced a new generation of MC's and Producers. So my questions.. (It's good to know they were not here today and gone tomorrow...they are all still doing their thing) Young GURU hearing SPEED changed 9th's life it appears...
1. How do you view the LP now?
2. Is it one of the better LP's of the last decade?
3. Do you feel it influenced a new generation of MC's and Producers...even if on an underground level?
4. What is your favorite Song on the LP?
5. What was your favorite BEAT?
The fact these 3 guys put this together with what appeard to be little to no help was dope.
