I donגt think both have aged as well as we would have liked, but TFIS had the ill production that I still listen to like Rock Star, Drug Music, Black Helicopters and CIA.

I disagree. Funcrusher Plus is easily one of the best albums of the 90s in any genre. In fact, that shit's been getting more run than I'll Sleep When You're Dead lately. I think El-P has gotten progressively worse with each release:
Funcrusher Plus>The Cold Vein>Fantastic Damage>I'll Sleep When You're Dead
Anyway, Funcrusher Plus has the best song El will probably ever craft ("Last Good Sleep"), some of his filthiest beats, and easily gets my vote over The Future Is Now.
Do you want to step in cat shit or step in dog shit?
"Rock Stars" and "Black Helicopters" are listenable for their beats and because you can listen to them and pretend you're nigga Todd chillin' in da pantry wif gl0ckz on c0ck.
Pretending that you're Mindbender or Brougham listening to El P's monotonous rambling on "Funcrusher Plus" isn't quite the same.
funcrusher isnt the classic some would like it to be but its a good record....future is now is one of the most boring albums ive ever come across...like an idiot i bought off the hype it got on this site and i hate you all for it

ROFLMAO
The Future Is Now is Illmatic for disgruntled, acne-scarred white kids named Angelo and Sully who used to listen to Korn and Limp Bizkit but now think Necro is "wicked sick, kid".
Future is Now because I love 3/4 of the beats on it.
Funcrusher is dope too but after about 6 tracks in it just gets repetitive and more boring.
Plus I'd rather listen to Jewish pseudo-thugs rap on beat, with rhythm and flow, than nasal space rappers talk all over the place about spaceships and yadda yadda yadda, without any sense of timing (which is the granddaddy of Mindbender's style).

just because you're too to understand "even when I say nothing it's a beautiful use of negative space" doesn't mean El-P suckz. It means YOU DO
You're in Heaven right now, God.
