Albums Gang Starr - One of the Best Yet (Discussion Thread)

[Awesome Wells]

I'm loving the album.

Hearing Guru over Primo's beats again is a vibe that can't really be explained. The album is dope, and it sounds like they may have had actual tracks recorded that chilled in the stash for a minute. These don't really sound like joints that Preme pieced together after the fact. And I can appreciate that. Really great album from one of my favorite groups of all-time. I think it's actually a better listen than The Ownerz was.

Got up to the track with Ne-yo and Nitty. Liking what im hearing so far.

Jeru and Premo need to link up again. Money left on the table.

I don’t know how much money would be in a Jeru and Premo album in 2020, but I’d cop CD/vinyl without hearing a single song.

Fantastic album, better than the Ownerz by a good amount...dunno what the fukk a couple of you are complaining about

This is fire as fukk but on the Ownerz talk breh

Ownerz was super underrated. It’s aged very well.

IDGAF.

Group Home sounded so damn dope on What’s Real.

 

[TheDarceKnight]

Man. Something about Hit Man has me

The hook. The line about clipping someone in the club and dancing right past them.



This song would be corny if done by anyone else but Gang Starr.

Just bought on Google Play. Will listen on way to work.

Support the art you love to dissect on a daily basis.

Was waiting til midnight but fell asleep. Ended up waking up at 3 and brought it this morning with westside gunn's record off of itunes. Havent heard the whole thing but off of just skimming, it's a hard record. Exactly what we need now. I'm liking how rap is going back to it's original form the 2020s after a decade of trap bullshyt

Get Together might have to grow on me. The guest verse at least.

Bring it Back Here is basically the only joint on here I’m not really feeling.

 

[UserNameless]

Dear God Cole went in

It’s like rockin over a Preemo beat is still a rite of passage or some shyt

Starting off right with “Lights Out” with M.O.P.

 

[SoulController]

idk...kinda lukewarm production wise. the arraignments are solid, Preem did a nice job given how they had to piece it together. but overall, im not sure how much i'll go back to it. will give it more spins this weekend

 

[BK The Great]

Bless The Mic with those crisp snares and gloomy feel there are some solid joints on here. The MOP joint is dope too. Gonna have to run it back and see what are my standouts but it’s a solid effort.

Actually enjoying the album...with what Preme was able to work with, you can tell he didn't put out a lazy effort into crafting it. He really wanted to keep the legacy alive and I respect it. The album definitely stuck with the Gang Starr sound and feel. RIP Guru...
