reality.
not a knock on gangstarr, and not to put an emphasis on sales, but you brought it up:
going gold off a double album aint whoa.
and puffy wasn't ruling east coast radio when this dropped. DMX was taking over.

There are sounds used on E 1999 that sound exactly like the music from Nintendo games.

even if gangstarr dropped this album a year earlier, it would've did the same numbers.
they weren't affected by puff either way. the same people that bought this in '98, would've bought it in '97.
its not like they picked up a new legion of fans or anything.
it was packaged with their greatest hits.
18th letterish.
Full Clip came out a year later

Gang Starr actually did pick up new fans on that album. It was their first gold record.

They did sample some video games if I'm right. I know they sampled a Sega Genesis game on Eternal.
Moment of Truth has better production. I feel bad for replying to an old thread and getting people this stirred up. I had never seen anyone compare these 2 albums before either on production or lyrics, so I thought I'd make a reply. I didn't know I'd cause all this.
...these albums have nothing in common to make a comparison at all. I'm an NYC head, but E.1999 allllll the way...it's been 18years and I can still listen to this album all the way thru.
