oh shyt i forgot this was mos def a underrated album and funny thing it got shytted on in the forums back then. Lemme go download good lookin on the reminder fam

8 Diagrams album is dope as fukk. Every time I listen to it I bug out on how dudes was shytting on it so heavily. Some of RZA' s best post Forever beats and the Wu came through with dope rhymes. SEVERELY underrated album and criminally hated on. Ghost and Rae shytting on it in public definitely swayed people's opinion on it.

Radioactive from Iron Flag :whew:

Another one of those "How did they rhyme over that?' cases. Like Stroke of Death

nikkas really, really sleep on 8 Diagrams. RZA beats on there were stellar.
I don't think they could fukk with his live instrumentation, but the only beat I didn't like was Starter, even though it uses part of Y'all Been Warned. Windmill was dope, Weak Spot (OG), Wolves, Campfire...

I even like most of A Better Tomorrow, it was the hooks that did the songs in.

The W is excellent to most of us big time fans, i feel its a rounded record with a fun single. some people dislike it, and cite Gravel Pit and Conditioner. thats fine, but i think it sells the album short

Man that's a record that never should have seen the light of day :scust:

I feel the same about Dog shyt. I know people love ODB but that was barely music.
