    Default Saul Williams !

    In past few months I've really got into Saul Williams .... particularly the Niggy Tardust album

    Is anyone else here into him ? Do you have any suggestions for artists like him ?

    I'm looking for some new music !

    XoXo

    He played Eddie the lunatic in K-PAX. That about covers my interest in the guy, I'm afraid. Anyone who misappropriates an idea from Bowie is lacking in a few creative areas.

    Nos - try last.fm for finding similar artists to the ones you like; it's what it's basically there for.

    Oh, the Niggy Tardust album is fucking fantastic. For those who don't know about it Trent Reznor made the album with him. Nos, have you heard the Ghosts I-IV? It definitely sounds like NIN but it's mostly instrumental and in some ways it reminds me of Niggy Tardust. As for artists who are like Saul Williams I'm at a loss. Mos Def, maybe?

    I like his older stuff a lot better. His spoken word is fantastic. I saw him do that before I ever knew he made music.

    i absolutely love trent reznor - i even have a nin tattoo!
    however, the niggy tardust album is the only one of saul's and trent's work i don't like - but it's all personal preference

    i really enjoy his older albums!
    you should check him out in the movie, "Slam" - it's pretty impressive!

    I like how he just throws Tesla in there in the middle of that list.

    Saul is awesome. I gotta find more tracks sometime...

    I'm particularly fond of Guns By Computer, and Survivalism from Year Zero Remixed...
