Appreciate the Genius :ohlawd:

Top 10 album all time to me, probably around the 8 or 9 slot on my list. Still hasn't been cold enough to bump this yet, but the day is coming.

Y'all ever heard the other version of Labels?


I heard this a couple years ago, dope og

I hope we get the og box in hand for the 30 year Ironman anniversary and other ones. Same with the the 30 year Ls

If we even get anything 😂 which will most likely be the case if they don’t got the masters

It's out there, but not in any sort of real quality.

another reason why the source rating system was bullshyt. This only received 4 mics (months after Cuban Linx received 4.5). They were very stingy with mics after the year of 1990. After Illmatic got 5 mics(in a year that should have had no less than ten 5 mic albums), it wouldn't be until 1997 for the next 5 mic album(Life After Death that didn't deserve it) and then in 98, they gave Aquemini 5 mics when Southernplayalistic and ATLiens were far superior albums..

I've bought LS so many times that I have to actually think about how many times I've purchased it. Cassette, cd (twice), 20 year anniversary cd chess set, 20 year anniversary vinyl chess set, and some 12 inches and cassette singles.

I keep telling the same story about the original "box in hand" and only 1 person remembers it. My homeboy(who is the biggest Wu fan on the face of the earth) talk about it with me all the time. I remember when Ghost was about to drop his debut in 96 and to promote it on commercial breaks of Rap City, they'd have this gold chest that bullets would bounce off of and play one of the illest instrumentals I had heard at the time. We get the album and that beat isn't up there. Now we're from the south so we didn't have access to advance copies of albums at the time so it would be over 10 years later with the invention of youtube that I'd discover that beat was the original "box in hand" track.

Damn that’s crazy man all that time u were probably thinking why you never heard it again and what that was. I just hope we get it at some point if they even still got the masters. But I’m thinking they should since they were playing the instrumental mastered on rapcity from what your saying.
