Seriously. Listen to this song. It's absolutely flawless. An entire 3 verses of some of the best rapping I've personally ever heard in the mid-late 90's era.

cats talk quotables and drop doofy metafemmes that any bum who listened to Jadakiss could mimic.


"Can it be* that the kid with the knock knees, got G to make a grown man cop pleas? For this track I got a lovebug like Starski*, blow back until I drop Tical part 3 *and this is where he RAMPS UP* aint no stoppin' when you start me, John J, pullin you card - mayday mayday- n words owe they life to GAWD* and NOW IT'S PAYDAY take it how you wanna take it FULLY CLOTHED....OR BUTTNAKED* i learned the hard way aint nothin sacred in this world, time to face it johhny basic, instinct, i'm sure to make it while other fake it fukk the spotlight: G-O-D already got light say what you want just spell my name right.









this song is mind blowing. Better than anything Nas did at that time. Arguably better than what Jigga did. Only Pun & maybe 3 Stacks can match that potency in 98.

Had this album but it was so bloated with tracks and skits I couldn't mess with it. It came out in the no limit era and that was the trend at the time.

This was when he was the best at linking rhymes and he had one of the illest linking pattern rhymes technical skill wise.
He used it on the first verse of this,....

Anyway, g rap still outrapped everybody on roots of evil and started his close to goat convo run in 1998, tho.

meth was on fire this whole album - criminally underated... if only he cut down on the skits...were almost 30 tracks on here if i remember rightly
The skits are all short though. The album was fine.

Also Shaolin what is labeled a skit for some reason even though it's a song.
