Daily operation and step in the arena were are and easily better just for starters.
So, simple answer,...no, not at all.

lol @ easily better. Moment of Truth is Gangstarr's best album. Premo and Guru seemed to think so as well. you put that album up against the 4 that came before it and you can hear the progression. Moment of Truth was their best effort and should be in the conversation for all time greatest rap albums.

Again, moment of truth is given precedent by sales base ld convo and the context in which primo gangstar spoke on it was in that context. In no way shape or form is moment of truth better than daily operation or step in the arena at all.
I know so because my former next door neighbor was the a&r that worked that record to its sales plateau status.

I seen the plague for moment of truth but I know the truth and that is daily operation and step in the arena are better.
Solioquay of chaos is bette than every record alone on moment of truth and moment of truth has above the clouds which was carried singlehandidly by a feature and the best verse was a feature. No to mention there is no beat on moment of truth as iconic as even code of the street or mass appeal or planet and that album alone is not even listed and better than moment of truth.

Moment of truth is a sales based straw man argument as a goat albjm
It pales incomparison to even the sun rises in the east.
Which, is arguably the album in primo's discog and gangster lineage that can really vy for the goat album.

Moment of truth is just the victory sales lap release from gangster.
It is not a goat album and far from gangstar's best album.

One thing I've always noticed is that cats tend to rate albums based on when they got into the music. Me personally, I prefer Hard to Earn and Daily Operation too. The track "Step in the Arena" is easily one of my favorite tracks from them. I got into the group after they dropped "Who's Gonna Take The Weight", so I tend to gravitate to the earlier work more. I dug Moment of Truth, but I didn't listen to it front to back like I did the other albums. It was their most successful, and dropped during a time when Hip Hop was selling like crazy. But I've always been about Hard to Earn.

Hard to earn is better than step in the arena and daily operation

Moment of truth is their best album
