Is Kool G Rap "The Giancana Story" any good?

[Thatrogueassdiaz]

Anyone own this album? I loved the lead single for the album.

For those who own it...is it worth a buy?

Giancana Story is a solid 3.5 imo

if you rank all his album this might be middle or lower of the list

album was heavily delayed and bootlegged from what i remember

G Rap was not happy with his stint at Rawkus at all

where you at
my life
holla back
drama
the streets* especially when i heard this on the and 1 mixtape


ima need to give this a spin...havent jammed this in YEARS

I thought it was average at best. If I was you I would buy The Roots of Evil album instead

Takes me back to my Rawkus days.

I dont even think the original My Life is on the album. I think it only has the version wit CNN

I think its his most underrated and his best is Wanted Dead Or Alive imo

not really worth buying considering most the best shyt never made the retail. Just download errything & assemble it how you want.


I'm still kinda hot that they replaced Nas's damn near classic verse on there with a random nobody named "Nawz" -- like m@$%#kers might not notice
& that Nas version still isnt available in crispy CDQ -- best I've heard was a fuzzy vinyl rip, & the beat doesn't snap anywhere nearly as hard as the finished retail version.



I actually really liked that 'Keep Goin' track with Snoop & Devin The Dude. some people acted like that was some kinda sacrilege, like Rawkus ruining G Rap & forcing him to sell out. but it really was ill tho, over a dope ass laidback gangster Hi-Tek beat.

also felt:
• First N@#$a (DJ Premier Remix)
• My Life
• the song with Prodigy
• the song with Havoc
• that Holla Back song with AZ, even though it was missing the best verse
