*decides to listen to Styles P ft. Pharoahe Monch: The Life*

[re'up]

That Styles album was one of my most anticipated ever, when I was 16, I bought that at Target the morning it was released...I remember the 'My Life' video was getting play like a year before, right? It was on some other album. 'A Gangster and a Gentlemen' was one of the defining albums that summer, I wore that shyt out, the title track was so ill..It ran a little long, but it was a 4/5 album, easy. Styles verses cut too deep now...

'Run around hustling scared of the feds...they say death is eternal sleep but are you prepared for the bed'?

This would've been a perfect track for Pharoahe to spit on too. Styles did it justice tho

 

[Ohene]

This was the beginning of Styles P reinventing himself as a hood backpacker. He went on to produce some real dope intellectual street sht after this. Especially the ghost and shell mixtape. I was stannin this cat heavy during high school.

real shyt

Ghost in the Machine in grade 9>>>>>>>>>

At the same time this song was out, G Rap had a song with the same name out. And I kind of felt that they took shine away from each other.

man...

that track makes a nikka just zone out....

Thats why I said he was the best in the lox...

The content and depth...

And Gangsta and A Gentleman is still the best lox album



that al green flip

I wish he get the respect he deserve

Is a blunt to the head, a prayer for the dead?

 

[porque]

thats how I felt when Letyourselfgo off Evidence cd

I see Phonte's name get excited when the great beat drops and he only sings the hook

of course he's on the remix but that verse...

 

[Dettol]

classic.

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

That beat

Them verses

That hook

Great song, I remember when it dropped it was kind of a collab b/w street and underground with Talib and them in the video...guess the whole Soundbombing project was too.

What happened to Styles? Last I heard him was on some Jedi Mind Tricks song years ago sounding like a totally different dude.
