Official Extinction Level Event II Anticipation Thread

The Big Bang>>>>>the rest of Bustas albums.

Hard, I like Bustas focused flow. "Don't Get Carried Away", "Been Through The Storm", "Goldmine", "Get You Some". Such a dope album.

Excuse me while I play Big Mel's advocate.

The Big Bang is way overrated on here . Typical watered down mid 2000s release . The birth of steroid Busta. The onset of Dr Dre phoning it in.


The Coming is light years ahead of this trash.

Sequels of albums is embarrassing.

Does any other genre do this?

Pink floyd making dark side of the moon 2, cos they fell the fukk off?

album may drop this weekend

When we spoke to Busta Rhymes back in February, the legendary rapper told us his upcoming album Extinction Level Event 2 wasn't just a regular release—it was destined to become a classic in his catalog. "This is a legacy album," he explained. "That's why it's taken four years to record it."

"Calm Down," his just dropped Eminem collabo from ELE 2, is here, and it proves Busta wasn't exaggerating. Using the intro horn riff from House of Pain's smash hit "Jump Around" as a chopped sample, Busta growls some of the best lines he's written in years: "I'm chopping your foot off / Now it's mine and I'm putting my feet up / Back to the hood and off to the whylin' / I'm hoping you protect your child."

Eminem's verse on "Calm Down" is hardly just a feature—Slim Shady comes in at 3:05 and takes over the rest of the song with some of the craziest, cleverest lines he's put on a guest verse in many years.

As always, he presents a conflicted character, calling himself a "rich Democrat" just after delivering a joke-y line about Clive Davis coming out as bisexual. Is he mocking Davis? Mocking homophobia? Or is he just using "bi" as a punchline? As with Em, it's hard to say, but he's in top form here, delivering jokes that would put him at the top of his clowning class: "Hey Mrs. Abraham Lincoln / Other than your husband's f—king brains that were leaking, how'd you think that play was this weekend?"

Listen to "Calm Down" above and prepare yourself for the possible release of ELE 2 this weekend.

No chance he's going to try drop it out of the blue unless they're giving it the "Year of the Dragon" treatment and treating it as a mixtape.

he did mention July 4th as a release date months ago but I doubt it'll happen
