Top three album this year. This and Gibbs are 1 and 2, would have to think what number 3 would be.

Dropping a video for this = Grammy win(s) sewed up.

Still pissed they switch P.O.V back to the original version.

No, they altered P.O.V after release. The beat switch during Malice's verse reverted back midway on the newer version.
They switch it back a few weeks ago. Only the clean version still has the "revert".

7/10. I think everything I said above still holds, although the beat switch on P.O.V isn't as jarring as on the leak with the Tyler verse added in.
So Be It part 2 - it's strange how one track can almost make or break the album. I added in the YouTube version when I listened to the leak and in comparison to the final iTunes album, the version of the album I listened to earlier this week flowed a lot better because So Be It part 1 has more energy than part 2. I've not checked back the thread since I've listened to the final retail but it seems like So Be It part 2 is a homage to G.O.D part 3 so I get it but it just makes the first part of the album feel a lot more pedestrian.
Overall, LGSEO doesn't live up to the hype for me - it's an okay album but for the roll out they gave this, I was expecting at least LW level. For a group that's as good and legendary as Clipse I expected more but I guess it was wishful thinking to expect them to deliver something as good as their first two classics this late in their career. So yep 7/10.
Edit: Plot twist - the snippet in iTunes for the album is part 1 but I have part 2 in my iTunes library as I pre-ordered it and it won't let me download the updated version
45:30 - Pusha asked Havoc for the reel for G.O.D pt 3 before LGSEO was released which is most likely why the part 2 version sounds like it does lol
Clipse feature for Infinite was also recorded before LGSEO was announced as well….
Very smart move to be performing this live and releasing the video before Grammy considerations were submitted
Crazy if this wins over GNX but wouldn’t be surprised - it’s taken over the cultural zeitgeist this year and is a superior album imo….
Luther had a crazy run on the charts though

Clipse says more new music is on the way, and they're on the Mobb Deep album 10/10

It’s nice but my least favorite song. It sounds clunky.

Still the best hip-hop release in the last 10 years, easily.
