i'll post some shit first to start the jumpoff:

Obie Trice - i think this kid's gonna shine. One, he's on Shady/Aftermath. If you on this label and you get the right promotion and production, it's over (i don't care if you hate him or the label, he's gonna blow up). Secondly, the man has talent. He can go hard and come gritty 'n grimy on tracks (8 Miles - off of the Green Lantern Invasion Part 2), or he can have fun with it and make a radio-friendly single (Got Some Teeth)

Angelous - alright, whether or not his voice and flow sounds just like Jay-Z or thats just him doin him, Ange comes equipped all around. i think he sounds more like the Jay-z we all liked on Reasonable Doubt, just with a deeper voice. Peep all the freestyles online. if he gets signed to the right label, i think he can pickup the sales when Jay-z retires as an MC. he might be takin Jay's shine somewhat, but i think he'll be a force not to be fucked with in 2004.
