Raekwon on Ghostface's "Ironman"

[ZEB WALTON]

rae got ghost back for cuban linx, def

 

[Poh SIti Dawn]

wow i literally thought i was the only one who thught this.
not to say obcl isnt a classic of course

and ironically starksy was a beast on obcl. stole the show as a matter of fact

my career is based on throwing nikkas in wheelchairs

Yeah crazy thing is with OB4CL it's only 1 year before Ironman but sounds totally different. And they both sound like different MCs on each album. It's almost as if they were a group you know? Kinda like bulletproof wallets.

 

[Kid Coli]

Ghost was better than Rae on Cuban Linx?

 

[DaRealness]

Yeah, Rae definitely killed it on Ironman. His verses on Faster Blade and Daytona 500 were just.

After reading the breakdown of Rae's verse on Daytona 500 made me appreciate it like 10 times more.

 

[pimpineasy]

Ghost was better most of the tracks.

yeah the point was that it was close and debatable......on obcl there was no debate... tony just was in a zone n stood head and shoulders above everyone else ...... even on verbal intercourse his verse to me is almost ( i said almost) as good as nas

whoa whoa whoa ironman came before obcl

95 n then 96 obcl dropped


carry on


fukk me. I meant to say this the other way around. Obcl is the reason people were hyped for ironman. My bad

 

[phonthought3000]

Am I the only one who's feel Ironman was the true sequel to Cuban Linx (No disrespect to Cuban Linx II)

nah u are way off.

and Ghost shyt on Nozir and his old ass verse on Verbal Intercourse.

 

[Sunalmighty]

I know what u mean. Faster Blade...whew.

RZA beats>>>>>>>> that track is incredible.

 

[Sunalmighty]

Nah, hell nah. Incarcerated Scarfaces >>>>>>> Rae said he heard the track, and he wrote the song in 20 minutes. Rza put together 7 albums that were PERFECT, he is the greatest. How many producers can put together 5 SOLO albums for different emcees, craft 15+ beats per album, to fit that emcees style? Dudes LEGACY is untouchable

 

[Yoda]

hey!













i was just listening to this exact album today.

naw son..

the rza had them boys recording the purple tape and liquid swords in the same period and place..

Iron man was recorded in another and more professional studio.

Why does it sound and feel so new then? I feel like he could of released that album in the 2000s and it would still sound fresh. Like that and bulletproof wallets have the same feel. Crazy that ob4cl came out after that, when I play it I'm like damn, shyt gives me that I'm stuck in the grimyest part of town at night time trying to get out but having to watch my back+the other feelings like making money and being knowledgable and such

 

[wunder]

Faster Blade is raekwon in his prime.

Yeh I agree.
