I said that because just like the Clipse album title it comes off like I said.
Sounds like you got your mind made up then :yeshrug:

EDIT: also I don't see the issue with the Clipse title. They, like the woman in the saying, were scorned by the industry, and they're coming back for blood. What's the problem?

Yes and you proved my point with the Clipse title. :dead:

Dudes using a saying that refers to women to refer to themselves.:dead:


Like a male rapper having an album titled: "I'm a bad bytch!":dead:


I posted y opinion. I was NEVER open to debate as if I would change my mind.:dead:

Hopefully the album actually good tho.

Why would you name your album that? :dead:

That's literally insulting yourself.


Just like when the Clipse named their album: Hell Hath No Fury. :dead:
Couldn't it be referring to hip-hop? Like no one is criticizing the bullshyt rap and seeing it for what it is, but he sees through it, him and the features are of the people who can and they're calling it out.

IMO- it sounds dumb and that explanation makes no sense because he named HIS album that. So that title refers to his album, as if saying his album is: "The Emperor's New Clothes". :dead:

Even when NAS named his album HHID it was dumb and dissing himself just as much as the rest of the rappers.

Hopefully this album won't be mid like HHID, cause I fukking hated half that album.

Shaolin Vs Wutang had good production and so did his album The Wild.

Shaolin vs Wu had a few but overall, the beats were lacking

To quote U God, “it’s the beats, they not hard enough”

The Wild had two decent beats, but that shyt was offensive to my ears :francis:


Raekwon is an elite emcee, he should not be rhyming over no weak or lackluster beats

Production looks meh, I mean if Nottz does 10 tracks and the others do one beat each that would be dope.

The old cliche would be to say: Wu Elements, but theres an inexhaustible supply of Wu (and Wu sounding) beats out there, unless theres a fresh take on the sound I don't personally want that.

As far as the album title, if the album sucks or its mid hes just setting every critic up to refer to it negatively in their final paragraph.
