mad sheeny. the crackle and hiss was gone. Biggie lite fm ass album. sampling The Police, Whodini, jacking a Pac song, a weird Dre beat, spanish guitars, hiring Havoc to give you 2 records to garner the Mobb Deep wave, Jodeci singing.

album is not seeing no damn Supreme Clientele on no days.


and 'watch dem nikkaz' & 'the message' are both commercial ass sounding, soften up the steez songs beatwise. Ol' quiet ass rap.

It was a smooth album but still really good. Whodini is a legend, fukk wrong with that? Jacked a Pac song, which one? I thought you said Stay Bullet, makeup your mind. The Dre beat sucks and is a bad moment. How did he jump on the Mobb Deep wave when he was there from the beginning?

It can't see Supreme Clientele but it can see Ironman, G.

You're going to love that record in 10-15 years. Stop being jaded cause Nas didn't have the career you wanted him to have.

yea I would put DMX's allbums up against Ghost....those are a tie

:wtf:

How old are you?

Fred.

The production just sounds stale to me or doesn't click. I'm in my early 20s. I like Kool G raps but just can't dig the beats. 80s rap, outside the seminal stuff, is hard for me to comprehend.

The fukk you laughing at? Kris? don't go there. If Ghost, well, I don't hold jiggy follow up records in the same regard as i do avant garde genre busters like supreme clientele.

how you can compare anything to Ready To Die & Life After Death is beyond me. Carry on though, friend

Nah I didn't mean anything like that. I'm just kinda :what: at you passionately arguing over who was listening to Mobb Deep vs Outkast, and the context of their careers, in that other thread when you were obviously a little kid for a decent chunk of the 90s. The way you were acting I figured you were around my age. No offense but this explains how wildly inaccurate some of your posts were/are, like not knowing who produced what on the 'kast albums.

But Ironman is better than SC depending on the day. Both are vastly superior to IWW.

He stole pacs beat. All eyez on me > street dreams. I still can't believe he sang an Annie Lennox hook.

No wonder Cole thought singing Paula Abdul would be a good move.

I was definitely growing up in Decatur/ Clarkston in the midst of ATLiens/ Aquemini/ Stankonia so I'm sure I have a better context of their music than most, even though I was too young to be into the nerdy aspect of records. My ear is my ear. The whole ageism argument is a weak one.

Mel, come on. Ironman is great but it isn't seeing SC. You are vastly understating IWW. It's biggest problem was it was bloated and inconsistently produced at times but the gems, boy do they sparkle.

All Eyez On Me and Street Dreams are great in their own right. Both came out the same year, so I'm not even sure who recorded it first, why are you?

And for the record, I "like" IWW just fine.

I also like the lost boyz, Ill al skratch, bone thugs, dmx first album, ruff ruders vol. 1 & no way out.

Doesn't mean I ever voluntarily play them or think any of them belong in the hip hop canon.

(I actually do play ill al skratch sometimes)
