Deja Vu feels even further left of 'Mt. Marci'

Interested to see where they take the album.

i think this is what we gonna get. a bunch of shyt like this. i'm glad marceberg was made. roc leaning all the way in on his artisitc goon rapper shyt.

Big facts. Also I'm hard pressed to think of anyone that's had more guest verses on joints by Alc and NOT done a full project.

I remember in like 2015 or so there were rumors of one being done. I'm still hoping for one one day.

Yep, you right on, Ghost tweeted in 2015 that he would keep the joints he did with Al for a collab tape... But it never happened.

No it doesn’t to me. Wicked Days is the most far left shyt he ever did.

Wicked Days is the weirdest shyt ever.

I've thought for a while now that Roc might just feel like he can literally do whatever he wants and people will eat it up. I think he's a super artistic cat, and is private, and also produced so much of his own stuff that he can get lost in his own world at times and go super far out there. Like on Wicked Days and some other joints.

I still think that he and Al together can make some focused and more straightforward Reloaded/Marcberg/Dark Horse style joints. And I know some people really prefer more of the Marcielago and Mt Marci era.

I'm gonna talk in circles, but yeah. I'd love to get a documentary one day or more behind the scenes on Roc's creative process. His writing process too but definitely his production process.

Dope album title ….

 

[WaveWhisperer]

Out there? Sure but I always thought wicked days was the darkest of dark with roc…and its a hard track. He spit his ass off on it (harlem)

 

[FrankieLymon757]

As long as this isn't anything like the Kaos album lol u would think him and Muggs would be equivalent to him and AL or even a step above cause of who Muggs is and his history wit AL but nah lol I wouldn't mind if those two never worked together again and that's crazy cause Muggs and Mayhem got a classic wit Gems from the Equinox and his work wit other mcs...

Yea. I think this is just one track on the album and I actually like it. Roc spit on it. I think the album will have a lot of straightforward tracks and also some creative ones. His most straightforward albums are Marcberg, Reloaded, and Behold A Dark Horse.

 

[Funcrusher]

Works in combination with the video I guess. Hard to say what this means for the rest of the album. I just hope he gets his vocals right for once.

 

[Piff Perkins]

I can imagine Mach doing something interesting with that beat but it falls flat with Roc. This feels like the first miss they've had. Still looking forward to the album...utterly baffled at them listening to an entire project and deciding this is The One though...

 

[deeznutz]

That beat
