The I in Team
I made the fade famous, the chain famous
QB on my chest match the stainless
Amazing Grace, I'm gracefully aging
Without masonry, I made more paper to play with
No rap in my playlist, sold dimes on my day shift
(((((((KING)))))))
So, can I breathe? Can I walk? Can I speak? Can I talk?
Can I floss without you wanting me outlined in chalk?

:wow: the GOAT yall

I like living with albums I enjoy. So I've been living with the new Benny album since it dropped. Now I'm getting back to other albums, including King's Disease. Yea brehs...it's still great. That's a great way to figure it out too. Another good/great album comes out, you listen for a week or two, then go back to another album. If it's still fresh, still good/great...it's a keeper.

Great year for hip hop. I've got 5 clear cut favorites that have been in rotation.

I agree Benny's album is dope. I went back to kings disease too and it's just a great overall body of work. Him being 27 years in the game and dropping a dope album like this is impressive. Every feature on the album worked too.

I definitely agree with the bolded. There's a lot of stuff that works with this album outside of Nas being sharp and the production being great. The features, the artwork, the overall theme of the album (to me this is one of the most creative he's done).

Also, whenever I listen one song, I end up having to play the whole album. I'm not even sure what's the last album I felt that way about. Maybe Black Dollar?
