Album has aged very well. Only 4 songs that were ok and 2 of them were singles (Candyshop and the 1st single...The Em song and Piggy Bank) Other then that the album falls in the classic category based on the time it dropped and how well it has aged.

Wait, are we talking about Massacre or Get Rich Or Die Tryin'?

i vividly remember this as being possibly the biggest lowering-of-the-bar moment. people need to stop calling that chit a classic.

it was a hot of-the-moment album. but its nothing classic about it. HYPE OVER QUALITY.

i had their mixtapes in heavier rotation than the album.


What the fukk is the problem with half of the fukkboys on the first page talking that "too early 2000s sounding didnt age well" bullshyt.. I hate when nikkas on the coli try to rewrite history or discredit somebody off of a bullshyt reason they dont believe their damn self


alot of early 2000s music has aged like a caucasian crakkhead.

this album was really mid-2000s tho. but the point still stands cuz that era is prolly gonna age worse. the mainstream stuff at least.


Classic moment in hip hop when this released.
Up there with 93 Snoop
08 Wayne

:scusthov: @ the bolded.

yall see what i mean about lowering the bar?

this is what you get as a result.


most overrated album of all time


meh. i cant go that far.

theres 3 rappers on aftermath alone that have albums that are more overrated. at least 50 cent actually had cultural impact with this joint, unlike the other cats.


I'm not understanding that "it didn't age well" shyt. This album sounds better than 95 percent of the bullshyt out now


thats because 90% of the stuff out now isnt gonna have a chance to age at all.

its still-born.:laugh:

The hype for this was monumental :krs: I thought Fif would be on some Ice Cube/ DMX shyt.
Then them stale ass early 00s beats came on and I was like :ld:
It killed the Ja Rule train, but he did end the east coast reign shortly after GRODT dropped.


@ the bolded: i cant even credit 50 for doing that.

the feds & the iovine machine put in more work on jarule. plus, jarule was already getting cold with that "last temptation" album. it took me a minute to even remember the title.

the first cd i bought was stillmatic but this is my first memory of that first week hype when an album dropped

like the very first cd you ever bought? :dwillhuh:

i think the very first saw cd or rather tape :old: i bought was tribe's people's instinctive travels and the paths of rhythm :ohlawd:

but my older sister stayed with the latest tapes and all so i never really had to buy tapes, i would just make copies of the original of what she already had :yeshrug:

This album is still dope

I tend to listen to 50 a lot.......I'm a bit more aggressive tho. I like violent/raw rap and for working out this (as well as his mixtapes, the gunit album & the get rich or die trying soundtrack does it for me)

I'm hearing overrated, "fillers" and Massacre was better a bunch of weirdos. That 03 summer all you heard was this and D Block and Dip Set
