Underrated album. I think it wasn't received as well because of 9th leaving at the peak of his popularity but Tay and Pooh improved as rappers on this project.

Dreams is in my top 5 LB tracks of all time. That was an important song to me as a teenager.

Album was a solid 4/5 mic album to me. Always felt these guys didn't get a fair stake in the game. After The Party and That ain't love was my jams. Felt like they should've made radio. shyt they made dope shyt you can play hanging with a lady. That dope grown man music. Maybe if they were signed under GOOD MUSIC back in 05 who knows they might've had a COMMON like impact in the game. Damn shame of the split up

The GetBack...

I was mad as hell when I found out this the only album available on limewire by the time I got hip to those type of sites. :mjlol:
I legit thought "Can't believe I'm fiending for American hip-hop so hard I'm willing to listen to nobodies :scust:"
Until Extra hard hit me like a jolt of energy. Still listen to it every once in a while. :wow:

LB is second to OutKast only in my hip-hop duo list.

Big Boi on Two Step Blues would've been straight :fire:

Great album, though, regardless. The intro record Sirens still as pertinent as ever:

Out with the fader, started with three
Down to two-six later, back independent
Cause to kids I wouldn't cater
Go against the system you in bed with Al'Qaeda
Dog they not playin

They tryin to blame this rap shyt for all of our ills
Like I can stick you up with a mic
Like I can rape you with a verse or use a verb as a knife
Like before Kool Herc, everything was alright
Like y'all wasn't callin black women hoes befo' "Rappers Delight"

:wow:

I love all of LB's albums but this is my favorite. I think I related to this album the most because I'm about the same age as them and a lot of the content I related to as a man approaching 30 and how you can't do the same shyt you used to. I always loved Phonte's line "Sometimes i feel like the oldest 28 year old I know". That's exactly how I felt at that time. I love 9th but I also liked hearing them over different producers

Nah.

I know Phonte and 9th cool.

Phonte and Pooh seem cool.

I don't know about 9th and Pooh. Notice he didn't tag 9th but did tag Tay.

I follow all three on IG.

well i know the brothers. The leftover issue was with Pooh and Tay. 9th and Pooh were back doing work way before 9th and Tay patched things up. If Pooh has a problem with 9th that's new.

I have a theory on why they didn't get signed to GOOD Music... I've seen others allude to the same thing. But I'll just leave it at that

Okay, I'm taking my queques from a couple Phonte and 9th interviews from a while back

I'm cool with no more music as long as they all civil
