Ghostface Killah's Bulletproof Wallets Appreciation (OG / Retail)

[MidnightMercenary]

A lot of people say that Bulletproof Wallets is a bit of disappointment and I can understand that due to expecting the classic that is the OG version but I highly agree; this album is the shyt! It may not have the classic rugged sound of Wu-Tang but I think Ghost sounds amazing over these R&B/soul type of beats.

Plenty of my favorite Ghost songs are featured here.

Never Be the Same Again.. literally a perfect song

Ghost Showers.. that beat switch! This song been on repeat like a mf lately

The Forest.. one of the most creative storytelling songs of all time. Definitely one of the best songs he's ever made.

If you do a bit of digging online, you'll find the original version of Bulletproof Wallets which is better in every way possible. The album concept execution and cohesiveness in the track listing is literally spot on and delivers endless replay value. Some of the best songs on this album were left off including The Sun, Good Times and the original version of Flowers. The OG version of Bulletproof Wallets is one of my all time favorite albums and an absolute blast to listen to.

Let's all rejoice and share our love for this album

What do y'all think of this album? What would you rate it out of 10? Where does it rank in Ghost's discography? Favorite tracks?

This is the first Ghostface album I ever heard. I beat my next door neighbor in a game of basketball and won his bootleg. Used to listen to that shyt all day front to back. Been a ghost fan since.

If the retail version had the watch and the other versions of flowers and the forest it would be considered a classic.
