Re: Old School Rap Questions
I have a theorum that states that almost every hip-hop group ever with 4 plus albums got better with the 2nd release and then got much worse with each subsquent album. Outkast potentially being the only exception.
What about Run-D.M.C. ? I think their albums just better and better. RIP Jason Mizell aka Jam Master Jay |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I like Death Certificate considerably better than Predator FWIW. [/ QUOTE ] There are peopel that don't? [/ QUOTE ] OK scrolled up. WHAT THE [censored] JOKER THAT IS THE WORST OPINION EVER. [/ QUOTE ] Not really. I think cases can be made for both. I'd say "Wrong Ni**a to F*ck Wit" off DC is the best track on either record, but I just love "When Will They Shoot?" and "We Had To Tear This Mothafu**a Up" not to mention "Wicked," "It Was a Good Day," and "Check Yoself" I mean come on. [ QUOTE ] Not guilty the filthy devils tried ta kill me When the news get to the hood then [censored] will be hotter than cayenne pepper, cuss, bust Kickin up dust is a must I can't trust a cracker in a blue uniform Stick a [censored] like a unicorn Vaugn, wicked, Lawrence Powell, foul Cut his [censored] throat and I smile Go to Simi Valley and surely somebody knows the address of the jury Pay a little visit, "Who is it?" (Who is Ice Cube?) "Can I talk to the grand wizard?" then boom Make him eat the barrel, modern day feral Now he's zipped up like leather tuscadero Pretty soon we'll catch Sergeant Coon Shoot him in the face, run up in him witta broom Stick prick, devils ain't [censored] Introduce his ass to the AK40 dick Two dazed [censored] layin in the cut To get some respect we had to tear this [censored] up [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: Old School Rap Questions
The production on Predator makes the discussion a non starter in the first place, but Death Certificate is a top 10 all time classic to me. Predator isn't close in any way shape or form.
