Superstar
Since theres no thread on this album here I figured I'd make one. Been listening to the album more often recently so I wanted to get a lil discussion going. So what y'all think of this album ?
Personally I'm torn back & forth when it comes to this album. On the one hand the production here is often AMAZING, some of those beats are just:
Space Boogie(Fredwreck was on his Dr. Dre shyt on this one)
On Da Grind
Cant Go Wrong
On Onsite
The Hardest Motherfukkers
Bring Back That G shyt
The main problem here for me is Kurupt himself, his fall off compared to his death row days is undeniable here, often his lyrics on here are just complete bullshyt and dumbed down to an unbearable amount. If he wouldve actually brought his A Game lyrically on those tracks shyt wouldve been
. This way many of the songs still bang, but more because of the production and the guest features that outshine Kurupt on almost any single ocassion here. I mean just listen to "Hate On Me" and Kurupts whack ass retarded style fukk a bytch verse and you'll know exactly whats wrong with him here. Or that last track "fukk Tha World" where he spits some of the most confusing, senseless crap ever, like WTF is THIS:
nikka you want war? Yeah right, I'm mic sky like stiletto
Holocaust to high school, roscoe to Vasco
Impossible lives the hospitalized
Franchise strip nikkas is broke for ranches mansions avalanches
Alarms ring cause harm in court
Like platinum and gold
I've sold a whole, explosions hit explode implode
Popped out bodies dropped off on Rider's road
I've seen and foreseen the unseen
And able hardly able to separate the myths from fables
I'ma buy a Baltic while you purchase fireplaces
Poisonous supply and occupy in space
So what y'all think ?
