I liked Mathew. That's probably my favorite post-Octagon release.

So by your reasoning, the people most qualified to rank the Atmosphere albums are Classy, Malpractice, and Drastik's girlfriend?

The same way you are the resident Saafir expert.
see, i knew jayou was an emotionally disturbed person. cause i honestly thought he was talkin to himself when he's freeversing on the rhyme.

I didnt think this album was that bad at all. As already stated, the production and guest spots were definitely on point, and Eon was FAR from the worst I was hearing around the time this dropped.

That High & Mighty album was dope... admittedly I haven't liked anything else by them though. Equinox was dope dope too... and the Pillage?!?!

I guess I just buy way too many CDs ... I have about 2,000 and at least 10% of them are wayyy worse than the three listed above. Some recent examples include Devin - Landing Gear and Freeway - PF2

cappadonna has ruined just about every song that he wasn't the last mc on for me. I find it impossible to continue listening to a track once he starts rhyming on it.

You're talking about the shit by somebody called "The Anonymous", right?

That shit was TERRIBLE. It even had a completely dull and mundane verse from Eminem...in 1998.
It was attrocious. Biggest waste of $$$ on a blind buy ever. Maybe the Stans on Ebay pay for it? Probly not.
Sandbox caked off lack of filesharing in 1997/8
Euros will buy...and some here...you'd be amazed at what some of the late 90's 12" go for on discogs.

As far as Heiro....I'm a Bay Area native but.....................

The beat, yes. Best electric sitar in hh. Lyrics = not at all. Lyrics for most of the album really sealed the deal for me on heiroglyphics. Del was the only one with a strong/unique enough presence to hang post no man's land.
CASUAL? At least? That album is near classic to me.

Phife come's correct on all Quest albums. He has an amazing network of producers, featuring MC's, his guest spots were always on point.

Pep Love was easily the nicest on that album. And Ascension is better than anything Del has done since No Need For Alarm.

This album is dope.

They Don't Want It
9 Times Out Of 10
Questions
Confrontations
Numbers
Invetro
Sin
Hate
Somehow, Someway

are all good songs. The ones in bold are great. This album was disappointing in the sense that it wasn't as dope as their first two, but it was still a very solid release.
