Rick Ross - Black Market (Discussion Thread)

[45123]

somebody got Mastermind as their fav ross album

When did all of a sudden Mastermind become wack. There isn't a bad record on there and the Booth was overrating the fukk out of it when it first dropped

Mastermind should be right below Teflon and DTR on your list

I'm not exactly sure when you turned French but uhh



If you can't knock that in the whip...you not as live as you think you are. shyt....you might be dead


I might cue this up after BM to tell you the truth

The more I listen to "Hood Billionaire" the more I realize its the closest Miami sounding album he's had Trilla..."Deeper Than Rap" and other smooth shyt is like the lavish part of Miami...."Hood Billionaire" is for cutler ridge, ghouls, carol city, richmond heights type vibe

I buying my first physical cd in about 5 years. Copping this as soon as I get off work. Got three days off so I am going to relax and enjoy the piff.

its almost heinous how "Smile Mama, Smile" ends on such a beautiful note with Cee-Lo singing in the background like "yea nikka my mama happy" then it goes right into that demonic beat and Nas starting off "You can die young out here" like a cold hearted father bringing you back to reality smh.

Did Ross over saturate? This is a really good cd and this thread is on struggle since it released. 3 full length projects in one quarter. This project might brick

I thought that Crocodile Python was a JUSTICE league joint. Didn't realize Jahlil did this Joint is a typical Rozay smooth track

Thread is on pace for like 70-80 pages. Not a flop.

There would be more discussion if Crocodile Python and One of Us hadn't been released early.

Only JL track was Foreclosures.

Dude need like at least 2 Justice beats per album.

Mariah sounding so on Can't Say No. You hear her on this joint and picture sexy Mariah in her prime.

Yeah....it's just that this thread had so much steam but after the Renzel Remixes dropped its like it slacked up a little. But yeah, he should have held off on releasing those 2.

Agree. Also no excuse for amazing grace or babies cry to not be on the album. TELL US THIS IS SOME SORT OF A MISTAKE ROSS

Yep...I'm not for albums going longer than 13-14 tracks, especially smooth albums. He missed out on a classic by a hair.

The opening 9 tracks are keepers. Add in Babies Cry, Amazing Grace, Bel Air and Dead Rappers and his status is locked in the top 20 with a certified classic. He also would have Deeper Than Rap, Teflon Don, Black Dollar and Rich Forever right on the cusp. We still got the tracks so I'm not complaining too much.
