I'm digging it, and outside of a stretch a couple years back, still think Primo is dropping heat rocks.

Beat isn't bad, but we have heard it way to many times before to be honest...The Game is shit his voice sounds put on, his rhymes are just nut hugging and dick riding name drops and weak boasts....that album will be terrible.

Beat is banging. Game is trash. I'm tired of him naming every rapper in the world in his rhymes. Its corny and filleresque. Premo wasted a beat.

Preems been ok lately. I think this is his best since "That White" or "Say Goodnight". I have nothing to say about Game, kind of lackluster. Good ear for beats though.

"Blood gang kill em all odd future wolf gang/
kidnap a vampire drain all his fuckin veins/
wolf grey jordan's use his intestines for the strings/
snatch up rhianna and throw her right in front of fuckin train/
and sniff a fuckin unemployment line of cocaine/
Tie Lil B to a full tank of propane...swag now watch him cook/
just stand their and look"

Game is a fucking cornball though, no matter what.

premier's sound and one loop/at most two loops production sounds so fucking dated now. damn shame but his time came and went.

pete rock's pillar is soul. shit will never fail. his track on the watchthethrone is one of my favorites.

but premo's music is only as good as his samples and even then it's up to how he sequences them...in my opinion his once tried and true formula has now turned into a predictable overly neat played out schtick. the sounds are nice, the samples are clean, but there's something missing. he used to be my favorite but once the 2000's hit he became irrelevant fast.

if you can't manipulate a synth/keyboard/korg/drum machine in 2011 you had better be able to hit me with a powerful sample sequenced right (see: just blaze's exhibit c, and even those violins get boring after a while) with enough curveballs to make the shit re-listenable (see: gone by kanye)

nowadays, music needs movements. premo's shit is stale b/c he's too clean. if i wanna listen to a double loop i want it bangladesh/lex luger style with a really heavy loop countered by the same loop on a different pitch scale, on some HARD IN THE PAINT shit. times done changed i guess

also lil b is the worst rapper of all time. this is true.

but he's also the BEST rapper of all the time SIMULTANEOUSLY.

if you don't get it you ain't based, god.
