It's a good album - better than Born & Raised, not as good as The Realness or The True Meaning.

Obscure Rap-A-Lot Albums?

I've always liked some of the obvious Rap-A-Lot releases - Geto Boys, Devin, Scarface, Z-Ro, etc - but I know there are a ton of more obscure releases on the label. I've had the Tim Smooth album for a while, and recently picked up the Blac Monks debut, and Bone Hard Zaggin by Big Melo - both of whic...

Re: Adagio! - The Obvious Archives Pt.1 [Heavy Jewelz Record

If it was a real definitive collection - a lot of tracks - kinda like some of the No-Sleep releases, I don't doubt that they would sell EASILY and probably for a reasonably high price. All those Cellar Sounds, O.C., Ran Reed, Godfather Don, etc collections seemed to go pretty quickly.

I agree about CDs... i cop a lot of limited vinyl but CDs for some of these releases would be great - especially where shelved albums have been released in separate EPs.

I'm a huge Shad fan, but so far, I can't get into this album apart from a few tracks. I'm disappointed in the production more than his verses which are as dope as always. Hoping it'll grow on me.
