Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow [APPRECIATION]

[Motife43]

I've been revisiting a lot of albums in my collection the past few weeks, today I decided to check out Blackalicious' 2002 album Blazing Arrow. I've known about the album since 2005 or so, but I copped it for $5 at used CD store a few years back.

The album had a bunch of bangers

First In Flight
Green Light: Now Begin
4000 Miles
Nowhere Fast
Paragraph President
Make You Feel That Way

Chemical Calisthenics

Gift of Gab is one of the most underrated rappers when it comes to cadence and flow.

I always cite "Ride of Your Life" when I bring that up, shyt always has me like




Got damn making this post really reinforces the fact I gotta restart posting on my blog smh

But yeah this joint is still dope

I haven't played that album for years. I thought it was really good when it came out though. Saul Williams just destroys his verse. Gonna spin this over the weekend.

I haven't listened to this album in forever either and I don't know the last time they even did a show/or if they broke up.
