    i remember some interview with Primo where he said he had to give them all his best beats to make them sound good

    Strictly looking at the album w/o comparing...

    Beats= Dope
    Lyrics= Okay
    Album placed in an era of its time= Classic! Gangstarr Foundation had it on lock....not denying the fact Primo had a lot to do with that.

    On a side note, saw all of them at DNA in SF back in 94 or 95. Amongst others, Primo ACTUALLY cuttin' up Onyx on Come Clean.

    This album brings back a lot of memories.
    This kind of hiphop IS extinct. Not even Premier is doing it quite like he used to back in the 90??s.
    and it??s not coming back...
    Oh well, at least we have the classics.

    95 was overenthusiastic-come-lately, wannabe NYC knucklehead central for days.

    Wu Tang and Nas made them come out of the woodwork. Then Group Home and Mobb Deep made them unbearable.

    Thank the Lord for Eightball & MJG.

    I picked stuff that was most similar to Group Home. But if you really want to test my '95 grimy, Wu Tang-esque gangsta...I'm rolling with the undiscovered genius of Psyko Ward's Rekreation.

    Hint: ask Cashless.

    this album has to have the worst 'interesting things to say about' vs. 'number of message board threads about' ratio of all time

  • rootlesscosmorootlesscosmo 12,848 Posts
    I agree with deej that there's no real insights in this thread (which is OK I guess).

    still, I would like some background on this album.

    What the hate, son? Even gay people are FEELING the NYG'z!

    Can we get a "Lambda-approved" graemlin?

  • rootlesscosmorootlesscosmo 12,848 Posts

    The Premo jawns are banging, but the rest of the LP is Theses dudes can't rhyme. Same goes for Big Shug.
