The Realness was the best Hip Hop album of 2001 right up until The Blueprint dropped.

I'll take bad rapping from Cormega over most rappers.

Especially today. There's whole new league of bad rapping that I didn't even know was possible.

 

[The Ruler 09]

Need to check this ASAP, 1 of my favourite albums.

The realness is better than the BP.

How the hell is Nas a student of Mega? Mega was in jail when Nas dropped Illmatic. Mega aint never helped Nas with no lyrics or show Nas how to make songs

If I remember correct....the line "Lifes a bytch but God forbid the bytch divorce me I'll be flooded with ice so hells fires can't scortch me" was a line Mega did that Nas added to his verse. When him and Nas were beefing Mega brought that up but this was during a time when U could do that if it was ya mans.

And that was Godfather Don, so it was an honor to work with him. He’s very elusive, I’m trying to find him now to do some work with him.”


that would be so dope, this album is still great front to back.

Dope read, thanks for posting. This was the album that put me up on Mega. Never really payed attention to him until this dropped. Made me a fan for life. Then The True Meaning dropped and he became one of my all time favorites.

Both them albums bring back some good summer music memories.
