"I had illmatic on the bootleg
that ##%* was so far ahead i thought we was all dead"

so many quotables

 

[DYNAMICS]

Yeah I'd be the 1st with Pie on his face, I really had no faith.

Album is smooth I'd say 2-3 tracks shouldn't be on there, it's a pretty good LP but then again I don't think I really expressed my thoughs inthis thread with those leaked tracks I just waited it out (I could be wrong).

[aka king arthur]

[marcgrat]

Just downloaded that commercial, and listening to album.

 

[ben roethlisberger]

Ok.

Well I probably did the most bashing on the first 5 songs leaked. And I still stand by what I said with those tracks, they are borderline terrible.

But, everything else @%%#%@+ saves this album. Musically, one of his best albums. Lyrically? Eh, has his moments but the vibe just totally takes me to anotherlevel. I see what he tried to do with this album.

"Hate" is, how hov say in 99? Bananas.

"Rappers get nasty in the booth but im gross
I cant even stomach myself, ulcer
Mo' rilla 'cause Im closer
Had girlies in girdle's wearin' more then they supposed ta'
Poser? No sir
My hustle, so Russell
I stretch work, yoga
You know I got it down dog
Al Roker, I used to knock pounds off
Aint nothing for me to knock nouns off"

Can't wait for 9/11

I'm waiting it out.

 

[10508 cardo jr ln]

Just smoked a blunt, listening now.. will disapprove later

 

[marath0n]

So tempted to listen early...

 

[onetwothreewick]

Is it just me or did they tweak the speed for the album version of run this town? It sounds different but I don't have the original on me.

 

[airuphere23]

Empire state of mind is a dope song. Great anthem for NY'ers...and my girl Alicia killed that song.

 

[thekingofva]

I'm on track 6 so far "Real As It Gets" Album is fire so far. Didn't like the beat on "Empire State" but I'm sure it will growon me.

album is not quite dark as much as it different

its got a philosophical feel

could be dark could be light

you call it


(why is no one talking about Young Forever song makes you take a step back)
