Sucks. R.I.P.

^ Me too.

Very good album. Highly innovative. There are a lot of albums I prefer over this, but it has its place.

8 Steps To Perfection is the shit.

Big Doe Rehab is dope. So is Theodore Unit - 718.

Forgot that I own The Brown Tape, which is really dope (I'm admittedly a huge Apollo Brown fan). There was a cool storyline going on, seemed like the lyrics were there.

Ghost did indeed have some good verses on the Wu Massacre album.

For people saying Action Bronson hasn't made any good songs, I encourage you to listen to Dr. Lecter or Well-Done. Both good albums, particularly Well-Done. Ghost is still miles ahead of him though. Haven't heard much of his new stuff to be honest. Last album I heard by him was Apollo Kids, and that...

Stupid. No reason to take shots at Ghostface whatsoever.

Ghostface has one of the best discographies in hip hop. One of the most consistent rappers ever. Makes it even dumber of a statement. And I've never been one of the people who criticized Action for, "sounding like Ghostface."

Copped this used at Amoeba over the weekend. It's good. Far from spectacular or even great, but it is worth some listens. Royce is tremendous rapper and he really did his thing on this album. Premier is not the Premier of days past, but he still knows how to make dope beats. There are a couple that ...

Yep, exactly.

Frankly I don't even care if he does or doesn't. He's dope. I think the difference is pretty apparent.

Damn man, that hurt. Why the hate?

Just heard this guy for the first time, specifically his self-titled album from last year. I liked it a lot. Disregarding his vocal tone similarity to Nas, I think he has a dope flow and cadence, and his lyrics were clever. They varied from straight braggadocious content to stories about his daily l...

Haha. I'm not really a big fan of Canibus' work to be honest. After listening to the album driving to work this morning, I'll upgrade it to a nice whole 8/10. There aren't really any tracks I completely dislike other than Mikey Destruction and This is Rome. I like Bronze's production style on this, ...

Initial reaction is that this is okay, far from amazing though. Production is good, but a step down from what I would expect from Bronze. Lacks the definitive banger. May grow on me. Canibus still raps about shit that makes no sense, yet there is some tangible pronounced content in there as well. 7....

Dope Evidence beat.

I like that first Hi-Teknology album. Nothing amazing, but solid.

Canibus' beat selection has always been poor. Matter of fact, I would argue that it is horrid. I agree what you all are saying about his lyrics, Darth specifically. For me, I just saw a gradual decline, that's all. I'm by no means a huge fan and analyze all his shit, I just hear what I hear. I own C...

Bronze Nazareth is so fuckin dope. He's a top 5 favorite producer of all time for me. This is an auto cop, not even going to preview any songs. Canibus used to be raw as fuck in the late 90s early 2000s, then he just got weird. He should've stuck to vicious battle rap and dope punchlines like on all...

There certainly is, but you can trust that it is a good album, a very good one at that. Not classic.

I can never name my favorite MCs, I never know whether to go off lyrics or musical output. Here we go though, personal favorites all time. Roc Marciano MF Doom Ghostface Killah Cormega Planet Asia Then there are other MCs like Rakim, Kool G Rap, Pharoahe Monch, etc. that objectively should be in eve...

Glad people are liking it. If you like this, I would move on to their second album Evolution Fight. Not on the same level as Time Being, imo, but good and deserving of praise. honestly, that's an album that was on my radar of "check it out one day" and it slipped. I like what I've heard from this th...

Hard to choose, every track is excellent. I think these three are exemplary.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/414V6GPWWFL.jpg It is the perfect combination of beats and rhymes. Amazing lyricism, emotional and social commentary with an uplifting quality. Heavy beats with an earthy feel to them; that's the word that comes to mind. Thick strings and heavy drums. Spectacul...

A lot of nondescript albums in there.

I liked seeing Lone Catalysts- Hip Hop.

Haha I'm not even going to attempt to deny that. I forgot about it quickly though. I was bumping Finding Forever recently and thought that was solid production. I wonder if he still makes beats like that. Seriously though, who can watch this video and immediately not think wow what a huge faggot. I ...

Kanye West is the most pretentious and pompus piece of shit on the face of this planet, no alliteration intended. I just watched his interview with Sway...holy shit. No only does he yell and act like an enraged caged animal and have no sense of decency, but his vision of himself and this society is ...

Top Prospects is my shit. Dope early Alchemist beat.

I enjoy Focused Daily, that's a good album.

It's ok. On first few listens it's like 6.5-7/10 Beats are kinda simplistic, going for that spacey sound like the first album, but nowhere close to the same execution. The samples are not as complex, simple layering of the beats as far as I can tell. Vast Aire's voice used to be tolerable, but now i...

Such a damn good album. Haven't listened in ages, not sure why. Some of those classic albums are like that, I don't listen that often because I know they are amazing (if that makes any sense). Like I want to preserve it.
