WTT used to be a 4.5 mic album, but shyt is classic 9.5/10


Not enough to knock GKMC's 10/10 though.


I don't understand why cocksuckers are knocking WTT though, it's still a great ass album even if it isn't exactly as dope.

:krs: Didn't think anyone read those so I stopped doing the reviews. Plus I had too take a step back an be like I'm just a fan so I don't have the credibility to critique these people cause my experience with the music is only through headphones. Thanks anyway for the criticism it would be cool to have realisitic round table discussion on the main site.

As far the post I made. That was just for laughs, just clowning around and exaggerating what Im trying to say. The ghostwritten part was more for Kanyes verse cause he's admitted to having his raps written by other people. The EDM influence or whatever can be heard throughout the entire album and especially on "Who Gon Stop Me". Even that beat was taken from a real dubstep song. Then on tracks where Jay is trying to shed crocodile tears its ironic cause a few tracks before he's bragging about his clothes while Ye raps about his expensive ass shoes. It contradicts itself almost. Back to the beat selection though, it just sounds like grandpa Jay and uncle Ye trying to like these young kids. You can tell Kanye wasn't feeling that much cause he toned it way down on Cruel Summer. I know music has to innovate and move forward but I don't think it should of gone that far off into another genre. It does have good songs and even though the people rapping probably don't mean it the lyrics are nice and the subject matter is still welcome.

Honestly, I don't get the comparison between the two albums cause they're so different. Not even from the same year so I didnt even take the thread serious.

I feel that to a degree, but that's merely the scope through which you're hearing the album. Though I've always said that Hov sounds insincere on tracks like that, even if he truly means it. From day 1, aside from perhaps Lucky Me. But I read your shyt on the front page, I'm always the guy editing that stuff when I have the time. Like I said, even when I agreed with you (which is often), I can tell when it's not objective. But I wouldn't compare these two either. Different type of records. GKMC is like how a lot of Nas albums are better for smaller venues.

I was looking through the album again a few hours ago, and totally forgot about "Gotta Have It", "New Day", "Joy", and "Otis" I guess those other few bad tracks made a really big impression on the way I looked at the album. It's all jokes at the end of it cause I like Jay, Kanye, and Kendrick. I do think GKMC as an album is better though.

I just heard kendricks album like 3 days ago for the the first time, i've already heard it more than 10 times from beginning to end. Certified Classic, i love the whole concept of the album and i can relate to a lot of the songs

As much as i love WTT, i really do gotta go with Kendricks album. shyt is crazy cause i still listen to WTT to this day, but GKMC is just on another level.

No lie this is the first time i heard a westcoast rappers album in a LONG time, and this shyt blew me away.
