Spin: When Ma$e dropped Double Up, what was your reaction?

[I love Latina women]

Now the album is in no way Harlem World obviously, but I remember loving Get Ready


Same nikkas is 1 of the realest songs of all time. I still listen to this all the time.



The "Justify My Love" sample with Total singing the hook.

I randomly gave this album a spin the other day, it was a solid project that could've had more attention had he not quit the game

 

[ChuckTaylor84]

Honestly I don't even remember this album dropping back in the day.

Didn't find out about until years afterwards

 

[re'up]

lol i had that Source I'm pretty sure...Ma$e was my favorite, and I remember my homie and his little brother telling me riding in the car with my Mom he had given up rap to become a minister, and I didn't believe them, or I didn't want to, I never got 'Double Up' until years and years later. I know I copped 'Harlem World: The Movement' though.

 

[Doobie Doo]

Total apathy, Mase was trash back then to me and I just discovered I could listen to underground hiphop thru Real player and record it straight to analog tape for playback in my walkman. I was on my Rawkus kick

Damn, you took a nikka back with Real player, lol. But yeah, I was on that Rawkus shyt too, but I still listened to cats like Ma$e too. He'd been 1 of my favorites rappers.

I never liked prime Bad Boy outside of BIG. So I was pretty apathetic.

[tuckgod]

Never bothered to listen. Couldn't even tell you what the single was.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

i was hype for it because that was my era...we was in like JR high or whatever when it dropped so we didnt know good music from bad...i remember not really messing with this one though...

def revisited it a few times over the years and my opinion changes on it each time

Yeah, it's funny how now the album doesn't sound half as bad when you compare it to Hip Hop now.

I would keep the chain going but his G Unit stint is 1 I'd rather now even revisit now in retrospect.

 

[JustCKing]

I had Harlem World, his debut. I passed on Double Up though. It's weird because I anticipated it, but I read he left Hip Hop to become a minister, heard the single (didn't like it), read reviews, and decided not to check it out.

I was like when i first heard this


"You hear it in my flow that i done fathered nikkas
I chill, go to church, and i dont bother nikkas
But I'ma get mine regardless, nikka
And if you keep frontin like the champ I'ma Tarver nikkas
Come on! You got no Unit, you not a gorilla
You got no beef its not over scrilla
Buncha loud mouths & i'm a concealer
This is Murda, nikka I named you Killa "

Yeah, he was spitting but the fact that he had flipped had made hard to accept him back on this kick. I can't even listen to this no more.
