Yeah bro the name confused everyone and the cover art looked like it was from 94 as well. But I think it’s arguably in their top 5 overall albums.

Blasphemy. One of the GOAT opening tracks ever

Never really listened to it.. kinda tuned out after they dropped "Dog shyt". I figured if that was the best they could do after P got out of Prison and a Nas feature couldn't save it.. it was over.
Tried to revisit Infamy this morning. Terrible.

Yea those Scott storch beats and lazy rapping prodigy are comprable to other 4 mic albums like Doggstyle.
I honestly feel like Havoc isn't going to allow this album to be any less than 4 Mics. From the interviews i'm seeing i'm getting a real Premo in 2019 vibe when he put out One Of The Best Yet, which was an excellent posthumous Gang Starr album.
Tracklisting looks right
The features look right
The two singles have been great
The Music Video was great
They aren't going to fumble this one. I just know it.

Crawlin is under appreciated, but certainly a sliding doors moment in their career, a strange call not to go directly at Jay specifically, a Chris Lighty decision according to interviews at the time, but an oversight in retrospect.Always loved how Get At Me movie piano outro clipsegued into Crawlin
Prodigy had a peculiar headspace on this album, the death of E-Money Bags was mid year 2001, mid album recording. P was just with E-Money Bags earlier that day according to subsequent investigations/news articles (or perhaps Bags was on his way after getting a page from P and heading to the car, I can’t recall specifically). Drugs, murder, paranoia, robberies, summer jam screen etc, fall outs with with label signings (Bars n Hooks), these all played a part in the reason his flow, subject matter and mentality was so specific (perhaps even morbid) for this album.
He seemed more pre occupied with terrorising/threatening Jay-Z on Crawlin, rather than battling (probably out of embarrassment, perhaps gassed up from knowing E-Money, for whom they’d both terrorised/threatened Jay Z on radio earlier that year).
If you check the lyrics, he name checks a handful of older Marcy hustlers/acquaintances that Jay perhaps worked for, (or revered) that were both murdered/got knocked. P shouted out these same hustlers in the ‘Hell on Earth’ liner notes.
