Unpopular opinion: Alfredo 2 is more fun to listen to than Let God Sort Em Out

[bigdaddy88]

Better production to my taste but lyrically Gibbs is getting washed 9 of 10ntimes Vs these 2 brothaa

i could be thinking about someone else but there was another thread where you came off as a drag so i am not so surprised by this opinion of yours.
respectfully

i play it in the ride, i be like "i may as well tune into wclk if ima be on some smoothed out ish" rather than freddie babble

The disrespect

 

[Zero]

Never crossed my mind to compare the two

A nikka can't let 2 things exist or be true at the same time

 

[KnickstapeCity]

No

Dikk riding extraordinaire

Just enjoy the music if it speaks to you... it's why they made it... popular opinion.

Its didn't take much to pass it tbh. Clipse album was okay.

And even more unpopular opinion is I like Gibbs regular albums better than his alc albums. I prefer his more Midwestern sounding stuff. I also think till the casket drops was a good album and still don't understand why "showing out" wasn't the single.

 

[M4T]

It’s facts. Pharrell got in his bag on a lot of those tracks but he was also the worst part on some in my opinion. Clipse are on a different level when it comes to pure lyricism and rhyme schemes but Alfredo 2 is a better listen start to finish.

I'm still disappointed that Pharrell didn't give them any up tempo beats

Ya'll need to learn how to enjoy music that isn't made by Alchemist.

Clipse album is a lot more interesting musically than Alfredo 2. My problem with Alchemist these days is too many of the beats are kinda airy and etherial. They lack melody. It kinda just turns into background music. I still like it but what Pharrell is doing is a lot more dynamic and varied.

Bars wise there is no contest. Both Malice and Pusha got several verse of the year contenders on there. Gibbs is spitting too but the Clipse album is like a rap powerhouse performance.

This happens with every Alchemist album to me. There's no surprises. He makes the same style beats over and over and it's same tempo. Individually the beats might be solid to dope but all together it gets repetitive. Play any of the albums he drops in a year and they all feel the same.

I can't accept the Al is the GOAT talk. He's a volume shooter who releases a ton of consistent music but he doesn't have range. Put the Alfredo albums next Bandana and Pinata and they don't hold up at all. There's far more variation in the production with Madlib. You have no idea what Madlib is going to give you track to track. Al could never make an album like Madvillainy.

There's producers who are better and more talented than Al. He just keeps feeding you music.

There's a few beats in the Clipse album I wasn't that high on but I rank it over Alfredo 2 as a whole because the Gibbs gets repetitive and Pusha and Malice are better. It's not a fair comparison because one is an underground album while the other has to have some mainstream appeal. I like both for what they are. I like So Be It better than any beat Al did though.

Alfredo 2 probably more cohesive project but like some recent projects from Alchemist...the production is very similar on all songs.

Probably the only flaw (Larry Junes verse also) but it's still a great album.

Clipse album has a skip on the album which for me is "All Things Considered", we still doing Dream hooks in 2025 & i can't stand the beat on that song...only fukk with the first few bars because i can relate.

Some of the hooks on the album are a bit cheesy too.

BUT Clipse album HIGHS are much higher then Alfredo 2 HIGHS.

It's a tough call, i just sit back & enjoy both...

 

[JadeB]

A lot of hurt Clipse stans

 

[Soymuscle Mike]

I rank them about even, with CLIPSE having higher highs but also lower lows.

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

I…agree

But they’re both on the same level to me, 4 mic albums

 

[head shots101]

This is false ….. I fukks with both albums …… I tried to pull up Gibbs shyt in the gym and it was not hitting like the clispe album I had to shut it off …. It’s nice whip music to vibe out to

Production, lyrics is way better on malice and push tape in my opinion

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Too bad Alfredo 2 is worse than the first one. Solid album tho
