madness... top notch production IMO. Gimme Yours, Sugarhill, Hoe Happy Jackie, Mo Money.... title track is probably the best east/west mc/producer collab I can think of

there's perhaps 2 less than excellent beats on the whole album, and as stated above the remix (og version?) of Your World Don't Stop would've made it better... but yeah. opinions and all that.

disagree....beats are its major downfall...they are way to shiny and clean sounding...which actually puts it way ahead of its time...it came out when there was still that dusty 70's sampled based sound...it wasnt until 97-98 when the sound on doe or die really starting becoming prevalent

yeah true, the production is quite 'clean' (same could be said for RD) - but not in a commercial 90s Bad Boy kind of way. in fact a million miles from that, to my ears...

Reasonable Doubt - if only for the Ski-produced tracks.

But: Pieces of a Man > Vol. 2

N.O. Joe is from the South, he used to be part of the in-house Rap-A-Lot production team.

Sugar Hill and Gimmie Yours are 2 of my favorite songs of all time. Both albums are in my top 20 of all time. But the answer for me is DOE OR DIE

Why was Kay Slay dissing AZ on that Game Over docu, if that was the title?
Kool Keith: I wore a straw hat with a feather to the last Source Awards. When I got to Madison Square Garden everybody was looking at me. When I got back home I seen everybody and their mother in their video wearing a fuckinג€™ straw hat with a feather in it.

Tim Dog: ג€œWhat Kool Keith gonna wear? Iג€™m gonna do that shit in my video. Iג€™m gonna wear that shit really quick. Whatג€™s Tim Dog gonna wear?ג€
