[Danie84]

I didn't know Lox was on All A Dream

 

[JuvenileHell]

Taking You Off Here was a great way to start off the album. It's my fav track on disc one.

Taking You Off Here
Timeless
Murdera
Say Something

All dope. I especially like Murdera because P killed it. I was genuinely surprised to see him rapping with that much energy, and flow wise he came correct too. And of course P never fails when it comes to the blood talk

After about 7-10 listens. Disc 2 just keeps getting better and better.

They unstickied this too quickly.

Prodigy snapped at a critic from Pitchfork he gave the second CD a perfect 10 out of 10 but gave the first CD a low rating giving the album a total 4.9 out of 10 rating. I though the first CD was solid it had a progressive Mobb sound I'd give the second CD a perfect rating and the first CD a solid 6.5 to 7.

The Mobb sold 7,100 copies first week

Classic. Shoulda went triple.
I still haven't found this in a store to actually cop though. But I will.

And I agree with Pitchfork (about Disc 2 - haven't heard Disc 1 yet).

That's why I said this may be the last Mobb album. Prodigy will still get guest features as a legend, he's gonna be in the studio with young cats like Spitta, and he's gonna do his thing on the solo tip with Alchemist. Havoc is going to get called for beats, they'll do festivals and tours and play their classics but overall I don't see them making another album.

The album didn't cost much to make, disc 2 are all classics they got from digging in the crates, disc 1 had several songs from Black Cocaine EP, and the videos for the singles were relatively low budget, also they promoted the album mostly through radio interviews and social media.

It's an independent record so if they sell 50,000 copies this year they will be eating good, but I don't know it takes a lot to get these two in the studio at this point, their pushing 40, it's a different generation, this seems like a good album for them to walk away with celebrating the pinnacle of their work.

I think they are planning on continuing to drop unreleased material in the vaults. They told Rosenberg that's what they plan to do for Hell on Earth. I imagine they'll keep droppin new material with the old. As long as they don't kill each other on tour and Hav stays off Twitter.

I guess this is a good thing. A win for the angelic realm.

Havoc, Illmind and Alchemst on the boards

I wonder what these light these demons are shedding on the demonic realm this time around?

 

[Detroit Wave]
