He dropped a lot of great songs after that album, Paradise, Love you better, Headsprung, Hush, Shake it baby, Take it etc.

He was the only rapper from his generation that was still reverent until Jay Z became president of Def Jam, then his album got :flabbynsick: promotion, if he got promoted better his musical reverence might have extended a bit longer.


Dude probably was aiming for being reverent for the longest period of time in Hip Hop history, since so many rappers have such short careers, although Jay Z and Nas are giving him a run for his money.

Yeah, he got some decent songs on the average albums but G.O.A.T was his last great album and even would perfect sense for him to retired with the great title called "G.O.A.T" (Greatest Of All Time), If he did that and people gonna be like :wow: on his resume especially retired album "GOAT" instead of making more sh!tty albums.

Remember him and 50 Cent was working together and what happened? It makes him look so desperate in my eyes that he needs help by 50 Cent so badly and bitter about Jay-Z.

^ I seen that too :deadrose:

relevant/relevance :childplease:

Some of these songs are fire...Im happy LL still raps. Exit 13 was fire too, his best album since GOAT. And he did add several classic songs to his resume between that time period

Im giving LL serious consideration for a top 3 spot on my all time list...tough to bump Rakim, Nas, or 2pac though

only lookin foward to gettin a CDQ of the chuck D track.

the rest of that album looks trash.

@Oroko Saki you been hittin the sake a little too hard if you think ll is up there with nas, ra or pac.

his body of work after g.o.a.t. is seriously lacking.

LL is now good for maybe 2 songs per album. ngga still doing love songs? club songs? cmon

what happened to the 4.3.2.1 joints or the pray joints? the ill bombs? the any given Sunday tracks? 10 million stars? new york gangsters?

I love LL but his albums are trash.

Boubt to bump these snippets :win:

:leon: at this nikka having a Monica feature in 2013 though.

But that tracklist is kinda feature heavy, looking like a East Coast version of Jesus Piece :scusthov:

So you singling out Monica and ignoring Earth Wind and Fire, Bootsy Collins, Charlie Wilson, and Eddie Van Halen who are all in their 60s?

I honestly didn't know Charlie Brown was that old, as for those other guys (Exception of Earth, Wind and Fire), I had no idea who they are, I just assumed they was some up and coming artists that LL was trying to put on by having them on his album. As for Earth, Wind and Fire, you really think Earth Wind and Fire recorded a entirely new song with LL? Its probably a sample, like how Ja Rule did on "The Pledge" saying 2pac was on it where's his voice was only sampled on the song.


Monica been kinda under the radar in recent years, that's why seeing her on the tracklisting was surprising :ehh:



ignore that kid. the other day he was lying saying LL was signed to g-unit at some point.

Motherfukker I said misremembered in that thread, stop being a bougie, condensing fakkit

i agree wit the whole g.o.a.t. point you made.

as far as the 50 collabos it backfired because 50 needed jayz and jayz dissed LL on that record.
