Is it classic. Hmmm. Only songs i dont like are jellyfish and dogs of war.

Yes. Lotta albums get classic status for worse albums. Guys on their first, this is like ghosts 5th (not including rae stuff) classic.

Its not better than:

Supreme
Ironman
OG Bulletproof wallets
Or OG pretty toney

But its a better album released than BPW and PTA.

And it has major joints on it.

Shakey dog
Kilo
The champ
9 milli bros
Ragu
Whip you with the strap
Clipse of doom
Underwater

Are all 5/5

And charlie brown and chunky were cut. Could easily replace the 2 eh joints on here.

I think ghost coulda had a legit legit goat esque album if he combined the best of fishscale and more fish, prolly shoulda just been a double album.

But fishscale is def a mighty mighty album

Tbh the whole wu fell off narrative is born outta hate

2004: no said date, pretty toney lp
2005: grandmasters
2006: fishscale / more fish, 421, made in bk
2007: 8d , big doe rehab
2009: cuban 2, dopium, wizard of poetry, blackout 2

Looking back this was a mighty run. Good times.

Especially nsd, gm, fs, cl2 , 8d
:snoop: This. Ghost’s label whoever the fukk it was dropped the ball heavy on that one. I even prefer the original Ghost Deini on Supreme compared to the one that made the cut as dope as that was too. But if the OG version was released, I would have no problem saying Ghost had the best 3-peat run in rap history, and Cube would come second. OutKast is a duo, so I’ll leave them in the group category.

Probably because he left from under Razor Sharp, and Epic didn't want to do the leg work to clear the samples... allegedly.
