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.

There are peopel that don't?

OK scrolled up.

WHAT THE [censored] JOKER THAT IS THE WORST OPINION EVER.

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.

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

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.

I opened the back room to our classroom in high school to find my best friend tearing down a storage cabinet while chanting this lyric. He was pissed that he got a B in newspaper staff. Cube knows how to reach his audience.

Ice Cube doesn't even write like this anymore... Hasn't for a long time. He was so great and fell off so hard.

So hard.

Love the old stuff though. My Summer Vacation has a great flow.
