Rick Ross - Black Market (Discussion Thread)

[Ronnie Lott]

"Smile Mama, Smile"

 

[H.S.]

Only Kendrick can get away with so little criticism. That backlash is going to be corrective though. I give it another year or two, tops.

Had it been Nas, Cole, Wale, Lupe, Talib, Common, etc. they'd would give them hell

"Why this nikka so off beat, that flow is atrocious "

In all the decades since I've been listening to rap I've never seen someone as visible as Kendrick skate with such little criticism. That backlash is gonna be epic and corrective though. I give it another two years tops.

Nah breh.. You know what I'm trying to say lol


He's touching on sensitive issues and his emotion doesn't quite fit the themes

Listen to 2 Pac's White Man's World

Listen to the passion in his voice. Listen to Ice Cube's The Wrong nikka To fukk Wit


Hell.. Listen to Ross' Yellow Diamonds

When you touch on sensitive issues you need to bring it.. You can't use the laid back sleepy flow on a song like foreclosures


nikka.. Bring the pain and anger

Assume there's only one way to skin a cat, brehs.

Here's my obligatory track by track review using smilies

1. Free Enterprise
2. Smile Mama, Smile
3. One Of Us
4. Silk Road
5. Color Money
6. Dope dikk
7. Crocodile Python
8. Ghostwriter
9. Black Opium
10. Can't Say No
11. Peace Sign
12. Very Best
13. Sorry
14. D.O.P.E.

Easily 4+ mics for me, about neck and neck with Black Dollar. Y'all forgetting that Black Dollar also had some filler songs towards the end but ended off strong with Dead Rappers

Had track 10-14 been:

10. Sorry
11. Babies Cry
12. Very Best
13. Buried In The Streets
14. Amazing Grace

We'd be looking at a classic right there

Damn near my reaction to every track If he had put your 10-15 on there, it would have been a certified classic.

I never want to hear 50 and ross brought up in a music conversation together ever again.

Ever again.

Jake might be the best in the game right now.

We need a Ross/Jake One album in 2016.
