Are any of Big Noyd's solo projects worth listening to?

[Lurking Class Hero]

I've always enjoyed Noyd's guest appearances but he's one of those dudes who i've never really checked for solo. In fact, no one does I don't think i've ever come across a Noyd fan before. He has a bunch of albums:

Any of these albums good?

Am I missing out on any good stuff?

Or should I just continue to ignore him?

episodes of a hustler was solid. it was an ep type joint, if i remember correctly. havoc did most of, if not all the production.

 

[SoulController]

Episodes is literally better than the rest of that list combined, altho Only the Strong had a couple ALC bangers

it was probably Hell on Earth leftovers, but damn them Hav beats were still better than most shyt

Episodes is a personal classic. Not only was he over prime Havoc production, P was in an absolute zone and has a verse on damn near every song. Album is easily 4.5 mics. No weak tracks.

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

Yeah, Episodes is still my shyt. Noyd is hit or miss for me tho. Sometimes he can come thru and ride a beat to perfection. And sometimes his lyrics are so lazy you cant believe he actually wrote that shyt and seriously thought to himself that it sounded dope.

The Grimey Way is a good example of that. Beat bangs like a mufukka, P bodies the hook, and Noyd's lyrics are awful.

Cool i'll give it a shot

 

[Big Mel]

Episodes of a Hustler is CLASSIC.

hisb subsequent stuff has joints here and there. The early 00's albums have dope ALC/Hav beats.

his sleeper album is 'Illustrious'. Lil Fame did some really dope production on it.
