didn't know this dropped today but we had a thread about this and couple of the singles were uploaded here and there

i'm not expecting much but 36 seasons wasn't bad so maybe this won't be either

[Philaflava]

well fuck me then. the beats are cool. collabos seem weird with the exception of doom. it's a very short EP but might be better than 36 IMO.

[drizzle]

I think the collabs have to do with Frank Dukes' involvement more than anything else, he's the one guy involved here that's worked with all the others individually on other projects.

Is this streaming anywhere? I saw review posts and figured it was just from press copies, there's no mention of the actual release anywhere.

[Versive]

I'd pre-ordered the vinyl, having elected to cop this over 36 Seasons if only for the sake of collectibility. Looking forward to hearing it. Didn't even realize there was a collaboration with TREE on here. Fuck yes.

[drizzle]

Oh wait it just leaked today I think, the official date is the 24th.

[Philaflava]

peep mp3x in about 2 mins.

[drizzle]

lol beat you to it

[Philaflava]

time stamp says i beat you but at least we on same page.

[drizzle]

lolololololololol

well fuck me then. the beats are cool. collabos seem weird with the exception of doom. it's a very short EP but might be better than 36 IMO.

can you explain how a 12 track album is an EP?

[Philaflava]

the tracks are less than 2 minutes in duration.

can you explain how a 12 track album is an EP?

can you explain why this even matters?

this could be labeled an EP, LP or Turdblossom, it will still contain the same music.

[zombie]

yeah i know. i know it doesnt matter. im not mad. im not fronting. im not trolling.

Im just legit asking. im legit trying to understand. im new. sorry for bothering you.

[zombie]

the tracks are less than 2 minutes in duration.

so thats what determines what an EP is?

interesting. thanks man

[Philaflava]

i think if an album clocks in under say 30 minutes its technically an EP. i don't know the exact number but its something like that.

[drizzle]

Yea 30 mins or a certain number of tracks. This one is 32 I think, close enough.

[zombie]

half way through, not terrible. i like it so far

[DLG]

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

They're doing a free show together in tdot this week #hiphopmecca

[Mindbender Futurama]

^^^^I was there last night

rocked out with Killah Priest again performing "Shimmy Shimmy Ya" and "Brooklyn Zoo"

Ghost is super great with a live band

He performed THE WATCH too and even did Raekwons lyrics OMG OMG FUCK YEEEASS

[mud]

He performed THE WATCH

Now THAT'S dope.

[illuminati_guy]

I like this more than the last two ghostface albums

As a BBNG album, not their best. Looking forward to their collab album with Tree

[Employee]

Shit's nice.

[Hair of the Dog]

I want to like this much more than I do, and there are some redeeming elements...but Ghost really is just a shell of what he used to be. Its like Jordan with the wizards

[Sebastion Shaw]

Ghost uninspired like a mug. He need to link back up with Lord Superb. I'm sure he could use the look.

[Versive]

I like it. You doods need to go find your dinosaur or some shit.

[Philaflava]

Ghost has been uninspired probably since Fishscale. I agree, he needs Superb and Trife to put a little pep in that step.

[fatboybrandon]

I look forward to hearing the new project. I saw interviews recently and a few years back where Ghost confessed his lack of inspiration and that he doesn't write like he used to just because of the overall state of Hip Hop. I remember another where he mentioned people don't want to think nowadays when it comes to Hip Hop about a year ago.
