Why Gravediggaz doesn't get the respect they deserve?

their albums aint that good?

6 feet deep was really really good, 4.5/5 at worse. the only flaw i can pick out from it is that horrorcore might not be everyone's cup of tea. cult classic status

the pick...is 3.5, solid joint. hidden emotions is my ish

still bump them from time to time, the pick... is currently in rotation in my mp3 player. but i aint heard their third yet

6 Feet Deep/nikkamortis is a classic IMO

they should have kept it as Prince Paul as the main producer, kept RZA focused on the lyrics. the concept was dope, beat & rhymes were dope as fukk, would have been crazy if they only did the one album. i haven't listened to anything after the second album i don't think it would be worth my time.

First album is an extension of the genius Paul laid down on De La with nods to STET combined with the genius of an emerging Rza/Sunz Of Man


The second album is trash outside a few cuts.

First two albums was dope. But horrocore faded into obscurity. Same reason I believe BTNH dont get their props (I know they wasn't horrocore but they had horror elements). Gravediggaz had a really good balance of horrorcore and NY street shyt. The second album had a lot of 5 percent shyt mixed in which I thought was cool but I can see why some people didn't fukk with it
