K..its dope, they went hard. Jr didnt live up to his potential,he's underrated but he's been good with me as far as lyrical ability since that funk flex hot 97 freestyle from back in the day.

:wow: This legit was my number 3
Song in total plays on my top 25 playlist for my ipod.

Yeah after listening to both albums...the Dipset affilatates had the better one. JR Writer still can spit but he's not spitting at the level he was at during Dipset's prime. He barely uses his old flow...

Rell sounding as hungry as ever..he killed We Like That. I haven't heard 40 Cal in years man...this shyt is crazy.

Here's what needs to happen. They all need to make this group official and get Jimmy to join since he's keeping Dipset afloat, ditch Cam and Juelz. I hate to say it but them 2 nikkas are washed.

Then boom we back:blessed:

I would like to think Cam would be motivated to come harder in a studio full of hungry nyggas. I could be wrong though.

Yeah Juelz got real life problems.

That diplomatic ties is way too Hollywood. I always felt the any commercial success the dips had in their prime was organic. They were forcing some shyt on this one.:scust:

Listened to Diplomatic Ties. First two tracks had me like, “Dipset is BACK!!” :banderas:

Then I heard the rest of the album and :gucci:. Average at best. Jimmy did his thing and the production was good but Cam and especially Juelz weren’t up to par. And I fukk with Cam and Juelz heavy.

Then I learn that JR Writer released a tape on the same day as Diplomatic Ties. I was like :dwillhuh: . Always liked Writer’s lyricism so I give it a listen.

Not only is Writer in it, but Rell and 40? A-Mafia and Tom Gist too?! Breeeehhh:ohhh:

So-called Dipset “B-Team” straight washed the core members. It ain’t even close. :whoo:

Writer going in. Rell swagging out. 40 keeping up with both. A-Mafia spitting bars. Tom Gist was dope. :whew:

Still a fan of the core Dipset members (Cam, Juelz, Jim, Freaky) but, as of right now, the “B-Team” is carrying the Dipset brand right now. They are the spitters of the squad. No question. If the core members are smart, they’ll collab with the B-Team, and either step up their pen game or let the spitters lead the charge.

Major shout out to Writer, Rell, 40, A-Mafia, and Tom Gist for holding it down and giving the fans that shyt we’ve been waiting for a minute. :salute:

I swear I need a Tom Gist x Joe Budden track just straight depressing bars and unnecessary reflecting on situations they got put in.

When Tom Gist said” it’s time to test credit at the Chinese spot” :wow:

That whole 16 minute session on That More than Music album is in my top 25 too. Dope shyt. Didn’t like that they cut it off on the album but luckily I found the rest on a mixtape
