10 Years on... Fishscale revisited

[10:31]

So, this week marks 10 years since the release of Ghostface Killah's album Fishscale, 28th March 2006.

Now I know this has been debated on here as to how highly the album is thought of but to me it's a personal classic. This album opened up the whole of Wu-Tang to me (I was late to the genre in general). Ghost's name, the album cover and album title caught my eye and I bought Fishscale at random.

Shakey Dog good lord.

Kilo, that infectious hook

The Champ which completes this 3 track run

Some of the skits on the album

I've always loved Three Bricks too

I don't think there's a weak track on the album, there's stuff that I have to be in the mood to listen to but they're not weak to me.


As a sidenote - T.I,'s King also came out on the same day.

Seriously one of the best albums that dropped last decade. I don't understand why it doesn't get its just due..

It's better than HHID, Kingdom Come, Port of Miami, and 102..

So many bangers on that album Breh..

It's better than Food & Liquor and Hell Hath No Fury too

 

[THE 101]

It's not better than Hell Hath No Fury

Anhhhhhhhh...

I'll give it a slight nod over Food & Liq but I don't know about Hell Hath..

Hell Hath no Furry is probably on the same level as The Fishscale to me

All around the world today, the kilo is the measure.

I haven't listened to HHNF since 2006 probably. That was my thought at the time.
Both great albums

Breh Hell Hath my be their best work. The concept, creativity and lyricism was amazing.. Not to mention it had a darker feel than Lord Willin (which was a great debut album)

I'm not saying it's wack breh. I just liked Fishscale more at the time.

10 years already.


I was literally telling one of my cousins my 'Shakey Dog' story last night.

If it wasn't for sample clearances, this album would have been even more

 

[ZEB WALTON]

What tracks were cut from this album due to samples? I think i remember the charlie brown doom joint was. I dontrenwnber what else tho
