It's crazy that Murda Muzik was the last good Mobb album.

Dunno, Amerikaz Nightmare has too many standout records for me to say it's bad. Win Or Lose, When U Hear The, Throw Your Hands In The Air, Got It Twisted, We Up. There are wack songs on there and it's rather mixed but the highs are so high lol.

I think that's the case with most of their albums after Murda Muzik. Infamy and Blood Money had a handful of legit great songs but there's a lot of weak shyt to comb through too. Most of the best shyt has been on non-Havoc production. We don't talk about it enough, but Hav fell off just as hard as a producer as P did on the mic.

I dont understand why people consider this some "experiment". These are albums that artists were already working on and Mass Appeal gave them a home/platform to release them on, and then strategized and made it into a campaign.

Dudes acting as if these albums would sound different if they weren't released on Mass Appeal.

Old head NY fans always gonna be negative

yall are being a little too hard on these projects, theyve been good

People just mad Superme Clientele 2 wasn’t what they thought it would be

Supreme Clientele 2 dope as hell. Hasn’t left my rotation.

He should have stuck to the original album title (Indiana Tone & The Temple of Goons) since he didn’t really tap into what made the OG Supreme special (the nonsensical but dope stream of consciousness bars) but other than that, its the strongest Ghostface album since Big Doe Rehab and fully proves that Ghost at 55 is still a creative force to be reckoned with.

Indiana Tone & The Temple of Goons

That album title alone would have been the best thing Ghost created since the Pretty Toney album.

That album title alone would have been the best thing Ghost created since the Pretty Toney album.

It fits the overall themes of the album as well.


Although I WILL say I think the best thing Ghost and his team did in the name of shifting the title to a Supreme Clientele sequel was the skits. The skits are FIRE, they would have had to redo the skits or crop them completely if they kept the OG title.

Nope.

This website has a habit of being too generous to the GOAT class then rolling back the scores after the dust settles. I seen it since the Nas ye album was streaming in real time and people were pretending that some of those weaker songs were it. Only for hit boy to knock that shyt out.

Ghost and Slick Rick are 2 of my all time fav rappers. Nothing I would love more than to be stating that they dropped good projects. They didn't. Rae did decent but dropping next to the clipse release basically got him eclipsed. Then you look at the strong releases we had this year and there's not much space for mid music.

I hope Mobb, De La and Nas can deliver. I don't really have any anticipation for Big L since it's going to be cut and pasted verses. The big picture was already stretched for new content when it dropped there aren't that many unheard L verses sitting anywhere.

Hav production got very spotty and never really recovered IMO, but Prodigy rebounded after awhile. There was a period where Prodigy wasn't really rhyming and the beats were weak. He recovered on Albert Einstein which was a dope return to form.

It's crazy that Murda Muzik was the last good Mobb album.

Amerikka's Nightmare and Free Agents were both dope. And honestly the Black Cocaine EP was solid. The final IMD album had some fire on it.

Infamy right after Murda Muzik was a letdown for most people. And so was the G-Unit release.

But honestly bro a lot of their 2000's music has aged well. Infamy felt like a fall off because P changed his style, but in hindsight it was a stylistic choice more than it was him trying but not able to do what he was doing anymore.

Nightmare was a really dope album minus a few super dated joints like the Lil John song. Everything you named, plus the Jada joint was fire. The intro was hard. The remix to Got it Twisted was good.

P recovered big time on Albert Einstein. One of the most slept on albums of the 2010's.
