who the hell is Howie??

Howie was their illmatic OG crackhead dopefiend uncle who died a few years back.

He was bugged... definitely Necro and Ill Bill's muse over time. Not a big fan of these dudes per se, but they definitely got their lane and are "true to the game" in terms of production and lack of trendiness/dilz riding.

Check out the "I Need Drugs" video or Ill Bill's "My Uncle."

Can't link em cus I'm at twerk.

Finally got to listen. Off 1st impression 4.5/5, but I fukk with Ill Bill and Necro heavy so you may disagree. Great production, great spitting by Bill and pretty much every feature ripped it, especially O.C. and Q-Unique. A little disappointed at no Necro record. They've done non death rap joints and one of those would have fit well on here. And who knew Bill himself was a good beatmaker?


Paul Baloff prod. by Moss:wow: Just nasty. THAT'S how you start an album. Raw as hell. 10/10
Acceptance Speech ft. A-Trak prod. by Junior Makhno 7/10
Truth prod. by Pete Rock:whoo: 9/10
Exploding Octopus prod. by Ill Bill 7/10
Forty Deuce Hebrew ft. HR of Bad Brains prod. By Ill Bill:lawd: 9/10
How To Survive The Apocalypse prod. by Psycho Les 8/10
Vio-Lence ft. Shabazz The Disciple & Lil Fame Of M.O.P. prod. by DJ Skizz:wow: Shabazz and Fame still dope 9/10
Acid Reflux prod. by Large Professor:yes: 8/10

Power Ft. OC & Cormega prod. By DJ Muggs:wow: O.C...SO underrated. Still dope10/10
When I Die Ft. Tia Thomas prod. by Pete Rock I fux with the content, just don't think it fits him or the album. Still quality 6/10
Severed Heads Of State Ft. El-P prod. by El-P:ohlawd: El-P is on fire lately. I would 100% buy an Ill Bill/Necro/El-P album day one. 10/10

This album sucks. I'm only up the the Mega & OC track but how this goofy, metal head wigger managed to pick weak beats from Pete Rock, Ayatollah, DJ Muggs, Moss, Large Pro & Psycho Les is mind boggling.

Maybe the worst Psycho Les beat I've ever heard.


This dude ain't it at all. Maybe the Preemo joint will be good.

Those songs are good? That Pete Rock song sounds like someone from 9th wonders team did it. The fukking Les sond has cloud drums and a cornball zany sound. The Large Pro shyt wasn't any banger. The Ayatollah is just some amped up guitar track.


Album sucks. Ill Bill sucks. Always has.


Uptown XO is a real ill underground album. fukk this goofy metal head cac Bap.

Yes. I said I listened up the OC & Mega song. I was playing it in my truck and that's when I got home.

Don't get me wrong the album still sucks.

there's a few good tracks. I'm a glass half full cat... I take what I can get

your criticism of the PR track would apply to every track on that Smiff N Wessun album. for that matter, I like Bill's PR track more than most of that stuff

There are 2 Pete tracks. Neither are bad, neither are great. The Les beat is simply bad. Of the two Extra Ps one is meh the other is the greatest song ever made. Preemo is fire. Ayatollah is bad. El P is bad. Moss is bad. DJ Muggs is pretty weak.


Meh.

looking at production credits prior to listening is a great way to 'poison the well', but I digress...
