Markp, you shouldn't judge them solely off of We Got it For Cheap Vol. 2. Although personally that is a classic to me, they have a lot of great songs that are brilliantly done in their own way. "We Got it for Cheap (the intro on Hell Hath No Fury) for example, I'm Not You, Virginia, Mic Check (from We Got it For Cheap Vol .2).
Personally, I'm a big Clipse fan. I just like their energy, I like their originality, and I like the unique way they describe their shyt.
I don't take their personas too seriously-- I don't take the persona of any rapper seriously. At the end of the day I find them entertaining, and I love their music, if you don't feel the same way about them, it is what it is.
If you're gonna criticize Pusha you at least have to criticize Malice too methinks.
