Albums Rockness Monstah - Rockness A.P. (After Price) [Discussion Thread]

[DoomzdayzV]

shyt is ok.......he kinda looks like a fiend these days.....still has a dope voice but the rugged decep energy from 96-98 is nowhere to be heard.

 

[Lord Mecca]

shyt is fire... definitely looking forward to this shyt... didn't see this coming

 

[REAL6]

It seems that Sean passing has been motivation for him.

I hope he just stays recording like P did now and releases allot of tracks.

Strange that is not on duck down records

not strange at all. Rock left Duck Down over a decade ago if im not mistaken. he's a part of BCC but not Duck Down Records.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

Yeah, some folks will give you hell for saying it, whether it be on some opinion or revisionist shyt

But Rock was one of BCC's breakout lyricists behind Buckshot and Starang. Easily the most recognizable cause of his voice.

It's real telling that Rock was the one that was being courted by major labels as a solo artist and Price couldn't get signed... anywhere.

Price got got depressed and turned into a whole nother kind of animal.

P is on my list for most improved MC in the shortest amount of time. shyt is like night and day.

its wild how for some cats like Sean P or MF Doom it took completely losing all fukks to get on..they had to not care about anything anymore to make their names blow.

WAIT, 2 Decades Later WE finally gettin Rocness Monstah solo lp

 

[mson]

I like that GW shyt.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

didnt rock get traded by duck down? i think they had a deal with priority or some shyt and just let him go there as a soloist but nothing ever came of it.

ABOUT GOTDAMN TIME.

 

[Rekkapryde]

My duuuuuuude!

Rock is definitely my favorite "unknown known" rapper of all time. Hands down. He's actually in my PERSONAL top ten, both him and Ruck (R.I.P.). I'mma diehard Heltah Skeltah/ Magnum Force fan.

This is first-day copped, don't even need to hear it first.

And this song is, of course, fire.

Cosign 100 fukkin percent.

Rock never grew as an artist like Sean did. Everything he did was murder, kill, punch your head. Sean made grown, mature, but still grimey music.

 

[Dzali OG]

And he need to plug wit some hoid producers who will give him some soulful beats, which will bring the soul out.

 

[TheDarceKnight]

Rock still got that golden voice...always looked at him as the Method Man of BCC....

Absolutely. He was sorely missing from that Chosen Few album. When he was the first voice you heard on the first song on The Last Stand on that 9th Wonder beat?

Same here. I got to hear Onion Head a day or two after it was recorded and I has no idea at first that it was Ruck.

D.I.R.T. was an underrated album too. Sean P's newer style mixed with Rock's style worked well.

And Nocturnal was my favorite of the original BCC albums.

Same shyt happened to me. I first heard Ruck solo on the GTA soundtrack with Agallah, and didn't really pay much attention to it cause I didn't realize it was Ruck. He was going by Sean Price then.

Then....
