Throw-away album. Ras is WAY better than this. Dude needs to call X and ask to borrow Scoop DeVille.

Shame  :grumpy:

Nice.  I know of them for their production with WC and the Maad Circle.  Think they did the remix to The One with the Parliament sample which is great.

the rotation might actually be better than I thought...I completely forgot Kodai Senga

he was great last year throughout most of the first half with an ERA about 1.50 until he got hurt towards the All Star Break and was never the same the rest of the season

Peralta
Mclean
Sengs
Manea
Holmes
Peterson
Tong
Scott

Senga usually pitches with an extra days rest like he did in Japan so one of the last 3 starters will be the 6th man and the other 2 will be ready in AAA incase someone gets hurt which they usually do

To me that sounds a bit like they are just throwing a lot of arms at the problem and hope that it solves it.  That strategy can work.  It happens all the time that you have two extra spots and you throw 5 guys at those two spots and maybe two will flame out but two others will outperform expectations.

I'll have to look up more about those other guys you listed.

Break down the Mets hitting side.  Are they solid at every spot in the order?  Or do they have any holes in the lineup?  Are those holes defensive guys?

I love this album, DJ Pooh on some futuristic funk, bass heavy, bouncy production throughout the album.  I'm guessing a lot of these beats were done around the same time as Tha Doggfather sessions for Snoop - and he could have benefited from a couple of these.

I will watch this later on but I will say this (on the 30th anniversary of the release of All Eyez On Me, no less) - every time I listen to the Makaveli album it scares the shit out of me. 

If All Eyez On Me was a 'celebration of life' as 2Pac said, then The 7 Day Theory is the complete opposite; it's raw, extremely dark in parts, insular and can be a difficult, downbeat listen if you're not in the right mood for it (aside from the singles).  I don't know what 2Pac's frame of mind was like in those final months to just cut off basically all the producers and featured artists from the previous album, which was massively successful, and make this one.

It must have been so bizarre being of the age of buying records when this album dropped under a different name and being so different sounding to 2Pac's previous effort.  From what I've read it was meant to be more of a mixtape than a traditional album in that it was rough and ready and was meant to be available to buy in mom and pop stores/swap-meets as opposed to big stores, so in a way 2Pac was ahead of his time in that respect.

Even though it's clearly not true, it's like 2Pac was rapping from beyond the grave, settling scores and letting certain things be known about the state of the world, the direction that the rap game at large was headed and those who he considered enemies.

I used to think 'Against All Odds' was literally the last track 2Pac recorded before his death being that it came at the end of the album and it seemed so fitting that he closed the album calling out anyone and everyone and declaring war on Puffy and everyone else.  People who claim 'Hit 'Em Up' is the best 2Pac diss or rap diss record as a whole are wrong, this right here is the pinnacle and it would have been really interesting to see how this would have played out had 2Pac lived to see it.

He's the DJ on the skit before it that bleeds into the Respect track. 

All the years I've listened to Dogg Food and I've never clocked that before  :)

Rapping-wise he was way more laid back in his DR days. I like that daz much better.

This is true, his voice and flow definitely changed to a more higher-pitched, urgent delivery.

The same can be said of Ice Cube around 1996/97, when he started to stress his vowels in his raps like 2Pac was known to do.
