It hurts my heart so much to see how far Canibus has fallen off. I still consider him the greatest lyricist of all time based SOLELY off his material during his prime. I intend to continue his legacy tho of superior lyricism in my own music.

Bis makes solid albums like Rip The Jacker, FWTBT, and now this ( i haven't gotten around to the album, but im hearing mixed reviews). he needs to regain focus

It's okay. And I don't mean that as a diss. He makes some cool points about capitalism over a pretty good beat. His flow is clunky and doesn't ride that well over the beat. But it's still Canibus. Vocab is >>> than most.

:ehh: give it a B, B-.

hooks are just weak.


Canibus still got lyrics though.


With the wings and the eyes of an eagle
No matter the distance, they see you
Put your hands where they can see you
Read your thoughts like the NSA
Paralegal power to the people
I wish I had the power to defeat you
The Hebrew has no equal, technology he has the keys to
With breakaway speeds to leave you

:kells::kells:

@W.I.Z.E. i honestly dont think bis ever was a great hook writer, even on RTJ the hooks were weak imo, not taking anything away from him
cause like you said, he still has bars. he needs to regain focus like @IronFist said. and call up some solid producers (Stoupe, Blue Sky Black Death)

Canibus was my favorite artist of all...I do not care for this record though.

Maybe next time Canibus

Funny thing is, I notice that most great lyricists are not great hook writers. Rakim, Gza, Priest, Crooked I
