Masterpiece album. To be real, it didn't hit me just how powerful this album was until I heard "Heaven & Hell". That was the 'holy shyt!' song. I zoned out for a good month playing that over and over. Then I finally moved onto Northstar (which is one of the greatest ways to end a rap album) and replayed the shyt out of that.

I much prefer Supreme Clientele to Cuban Linx, but Cuban is still in my top 5 all time.

While I actually thing GZA's Liquid Swords is the direct descendent of the original 36 Chambers

I definitely agree. I've always said that Liquid Swords is essentially 36 Chambers 2, just better if such a thing is even possible.

I love heaven n hell..this is my joint man..and the fact rae penned and recorded as solo then ghost wanted in and both recorded the LP version.

The combo of that and Northstar might actually be the GOAT ending to a hip-hop album. shyt feels like you're in the cinema watching the closing credits. :mjcry:

Tommy Hill Rockin Ice nikkaz:ahh:

...OB4CL:boss::bow::bow::bow: is the perfect synergy of a Cinematic Score, ILLMATIC BARZ,

Production, Gangster Kung-Fu Gems, Mafioso Hood Coke Tales, and Knowledge of Self; all encapsulating NYC Vintage Summer 95:wow:

Take out the rap kingpin, the black Jesus
I know a few nikkaz sniff coke, it cause seizures
Peace to half-moon Caesars
and all the bytches in the bleachers
Hot weather, sex on the beaches
Jury shopping out of the country
Deluxe luxury, people saying dem not change look truckle me
But what about the Wonder Woman bracelet
Two-oh point three diamond cut engraved rubies
Kid I laced it


...that's my childhood:banderas:
