Ghostface Killah- Supreme Clientele Part 2

[I love Latina women]

I feel you but sequels give you expectations that can’t be met most of the time. It only really works when the albums drop back to back or close to it. nikkas be trying to take the easy route and make a sequel as a cheap marketing tool decades later


Raekwon one of the only exceptions

Yup

My nikka Redman dropped Muddy Waters 2 28 years later and it really ain’t a sequel

 

[BmoreGorilla]

I like that album but I wasn’t expecting shyt from Red and he’s my personal goat. Thing about Red is he still sounds sharp all these years later

Ghost on the other hand

He had one of the best runs ever but he fell off years ago

You can call your album Alfredo 2 because it's Gibbs/Alchemist. Cudi can do MOTM2 because conceptually it followed the first. These other rappers just slap a 2 on whatever their best album was and give you some mid. It's lazy.

If Nas said he's dropping Illmatic 2 everyone would be expecting the same production team. If it drops and there's no Primo, Pete, Extra P, Tip, or LES then what's the point? Pick a new name.

fukk a concept it's about the execution. The two don't mesh to me. I don't like how it sounds. Could've filtered one while the other played so they're not stacked on each other.

I want to hear something new and the first thing you drop is a classic beat with a beat from one of your old songs on top of it. Nah, I'm not feeling it.

Sounds heavenly in my ears

I love the raw clashing samples over booming bass and drums. Hip hop got too smooth to me, I miss the shocking and unexpected disjointed sounds

I hope it grows on you brother

Then we never would have gotten Cuban Linx 2, the Kings Disease series, Alfredo 2, etc.

Sequels can be dope if the artist puts thought, time and care into the work. Even a lesser heralded sequel like Doe or Die 2 or a more experimental sequel like Man on The Moon 2: Legend of Mr Rager were really good albums.

Alfredo 2 makes sense because it's the same two people involved.

But if you can't match the quality of the first classic, then I don’t think you should give it the title. Gibbs and ALC surpassed the first Alfredo, to me. So them calling this the sequel works. Most artists today go with the sequel title 20+ years later to recapture the attention, but these sequels always fall short. So you almost set yourself up to fail if you can't make sh*t on the level of the first one, like the other homie in the thread said.

I don't know how people think that beat sounds good

It's The Coli. They're scared to be honest on here, lol.

True

Same here

I been going back again and listening to Red religiously again since I finally listened to Muddy Waters 2 a week ago. I just ran back through his albums from Whut to Malpractice the past two days since I been on the road traveling and driving.

I still need to go back and listen to Ill At Will both volumes, Red Gone Wild, and Mudface again

Malpractice doesn’t even sound half as bad to me anymore, when I compare it to the later albums (Red Gone Wild, Mudface and MW2)

Red Gone Wild had some nice beats but lyrically he had changed by then.

As for Ghost, the last project I really listened to by Ghost was The Big Doe Rehab

Ghost’s voice is so different now but I want to see what this sounds like just because it’s Ghost

Remember we had the talk about MW2, and you said it's more like a Doc's Da Name sequel. LOL!! And it's true.

People try to bring back that feeling, so they throw the sequel title on sh*t, but they can't make an album that can even get close to the OG. AZ did the same thing. Rappers gotta stop doing that, unless they're still able to cook the way they used to. They can't meet the expectations. They're way too high.

 

[Corndog]

Life Story 2 was a worthy sequel. Album was fire.

Admittedly Rob was already dead and the tracks were really old so it's not the same, but still

 

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

I'm nervous due to me a GDK fanatic.

When official date?

Try Sour Soul. That was the last undeniably dope Ghostface album with some stellar production from BadBadNotGood.

12 Reasons To Die was good too but you gotta buy into the concept as its not so much a Ghostface album as an Adrian Younge/RZA/Ghostface produced audio movie.

D-Dot took Rob's acapellas and made an album without him.

I don’t know if we can really count that. Rob wasn't even around anymore to actually make that album. And it wasn't anywhere near as dope as the classic debut. It was cool though.

8/22, as of now.

 

[ShaDynasty]

This is okay. Could grow on me. Artwork is dope.

Is there a tracklist yet?
