Hope the album is dope. Been listening to a lot of E lately.

No Pressure is highly underrated.

No Pressure is one of my '93 classics!

His first two solo joints are classics, to me. Haven't stopped playing either of those since they dropped. E's run back then was CRAZY!

Not feeling the beat or weird ass A.I. video. Vocals are also mixed poorly.

It's laziness. But also dudes donโ€™t want to spend bread.

I would rather them grab some random kid and just have them record the video on an iPhone before they get into this trash AI thing. The sh*t NEVER looks good. A grimy Hip Hop video recorded on a damn phone would work better than this.

I'd rather Meth and Red filmed themselves spitting their verse in their living rooms over this uncanny valley looking shyt.

Red fell off hard... last album was just some ABC shyt

It's really bad now.

Still one of my favorite MC's of all-time, but I can't stand these trash bars.

He's on this "I'm still cooking with a grill...George Foreman" sh*t all day now. I just made that up, but this n*gga driving me crazy with this nonsense. LOL!!

Dope song.
Don't like how it's mixed though.

Meth and Red don't hit the same after Redman got all weird during that interview. I dunno.

I remember when I used to wonder why the Wu and other legends never had young, talented people on their team. Whether it's a road manager or an art director or a kid who does music videos or an up-and-coming producer. It just never seemed like most legends figured that out. Nas did, with Anthony Saleh. But outside of that we kept seeing legends get some random ock from the block to do a terrible album cover (see: Capadonna lol) or cheap beats from some terrible producer they found in the city.

Now with AI it feels like the laziness and lack of effort has finally reached an end point. The way it's being adopted across the board by legends tells me it's not these guys saying hey we need to use this. IMO this is being driven by label people, as a test. These legends couldn't find the type of white boy who would say "you ever heard of Madlib?" in 2008, but they all magically found the white boy who says "you should use AI and go on the Joe Rogan podcast" in 2024/2025??? Nah, something is up.

My legends gotta chill with these weird AI videos.

I kinda feel like Mef might actually be a better MC than Red now. Funk Doc is depressing me again with these struggle bars and punches, lol.

Check this out, bro. @I love Latina women

I just watched

Man I donโ€™t know why they doing the AI video :snoop:

Yeah in 2025, Meth is spitting way better than Red and truthfully itโ€™s been this way since the mid 2000โ€™s. Meth has actually gotten better as an emcee ever since he dropped that 4:21 album in 2006.

Like we said the other day, Malpractice was the official start of Redโ€™s decline and itโ€™s been downhill ever since :mjcry:


But Redโ€™s run from 92โ€™ to 00โ€™ forever reigns :blessed:
