Personally, I think it's pretty close, both projects had classic joints. But OB4CL is ahead in terms of incredibly dope tracks that I liked.

IronMan had:

260
WinterWarz (That Cappadonnna verse was insane)
Daytona 500
After The Smoke is Clear
Poisonous Darts

OB4CL had:

Ice Cream
Verbal Intercourse
Spot Rushaz
Rainy Dayz
Incarcerated ScarFace
Knowledge God

Of course, I'm not saying that IronMan is trash in the slightest. If the songs I picked out from IronMan were 5/5, then the other tracks (Save a few) were 4.5/5. But OB4CL had more 5/5 tracks. :yeshrug:

But overall both were very dope albums. If OB4CL is 5/5, IronMan is 4.95/5. That's how close it is, IMO.

whats wrong with spot rusherz :what:

Anywats...we all know the Infamous and Reasonable Doubt are the two perfeect rap albums

Reasonable Doubt was great, but I don't think that it's on the same level as The Infamous. There are still some tracks that I skip on Reasonable Doubt.

The Infamous? Not a single skippable track on there. IMO the Cradle To the Grave was the weakest track on there, and it's still a 5/5 joint. The Infamous is one of the most solid rap albums I've ever heard. **** was fire fro start to finish.

Only complaint about Ironman could be Ghost's low unnatural voice on some songs due to the broken equipment, otherwise flawless album. Never understood why OBFCL is regarded that much higher.

my favourite ever breh. Cradle to the crave is so sinister. Actually in my top 5in the album. Weakest to me is probably ./..

fukk man its impossible to choose.

I wanna say drink away the pain but back in the day i played it out so that aint fair and can still rock it to this day. Trife Life is too good as well to be deemed "weakest"

fukk it ...ill say Party Over :sadcam:

I prefer Ghostface as an mc however I'd probably have to go with OBFCL .
And the luxury of that choice is ghost is all over it anyway.

Iron Man is really good but Cuban Linx is the one I come back to more.

Far from an easy decision, but OB4CL gets this.

How about Supreme Clientele against Ironman?
