[Wiirdo]

Ason Jones make me

 

[Danie84]

Canal Street always makes me , because that's how my older brother used to brag about his crew boosting up there.

The album just made you feel like old New Yawk being revised by a real G.

 

[Vlazz]

Great album, exceeded my expectations.

The 2nd classic in Raes catalogue.

I remember going to the record store every week asking when this shyt is coming out, and when it finally dropped this is all you heard blasting out of radios at parks and out of cars....purple tape was shyt went gold n 2 days which at the time was crazy for a rap album.....the only other tape that had that much hype around it when it dropped was It was written....that was one crazy ass summer. I miss them days man

Styles coming in with "I used to move brown rectangles" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

[Don Dada F Poppa]

Every time I hear "Mean Streets," I break out and start singing.

RUN THESE MEAN STREETS, FROM CALI TO NEW YAWWKKKKKKKKK

This album is definitely a classic in its own right, especially since its following arguably a top 10 rap album of all time.

The DIALOGUE on the album in itself is classic:

"Ayo Chef, this nikka got all your jewelry on when you out of town. fukk is this nikka problem, yo?"

"Come here, p*ssy prosthetic heart ass nicca..."

"Go to the store and get you a pacifier nikka, and a bib and a diaper."

"I don't give a fukk if you 25 nikka, you still my son nikka."

 

[Ziggiy]

Sun God has GOT to feel a certain kind of way every time he listens to Gihad

 

[Eternal Tecate]

We soldiers boy we soldiers

 

[classicmaterial]

When I saw the lineup for House of Flying Daggers I was like....

Then I was in Baltimore when it leaked with a struggleberry and couldn't get a good link and I was like...

Then I finally heard it and was like...

Then the album leaked and it was a wrap.

Broken Safety >>>>>

Rae said "Maxed like I'm under a good wall" smh.....so many quotables on this album

"Yeah, yo, I got you, you want some of these donuts?"

"It's $2.50, nikka, back the fukk up!...

"You got the strong scoopers out there?"
