I'm listening to "Death Certificate" right now.  It's been probably 5 years since I've really listened to it.  I'm gonna have to listen to it in full.  I can't skip tracks on this one.

Was bumping Death Certificate so much I forgot I had this thread going  ;D

Man I always go back and forth what album I think is his best, this one or Amerikkas Most. This album though listen back to it is very well balanced. Social commentary, party tracks, gangsta tracks, it covers a wide range of subject matter. Just a classic album in every sense of the word.

There's no contest... Death Certificate is his best album. Classic....
I don't really like Amerikkkas Most.  :P (But yes Dre-Day.. I will give it another chance  ;))

I remember when Death Certificate dropped,I was actually ready to hate on it :laugh:
I was sure Cube couldn't produce a dope album without Dre.... but boy was I wrong.  :P :laugh:


Yeah the production was dope from track to track, Cube's flow was great, something now from time to time he struggles with I notice. Not that problem on this one, and it is Cube at his best with the social commentary. Predator was up there too with it but this album he was at his best.

What bothers me with Cube's flow is that he at times jump on the current trend,like on Predator he's clearly influenced by Das-FX´s flow.... a flow and style I hate  :P :laugh:.
His "club" flow is mad wak too  :-X :P
Predator is on rotation.... my final verdict on it will come a little later  ;)


I loved We Be Clubbin when it dropped, might throw Players Club into this thread too, that is a slept on soundtrack. But yeah I agree with you on that. To his defense, he would always have some out of left field collabos like Check Yo Self or the Pushin Weight remix with Noreaga or We Be Clubbin with DMX. I for the most part always enjoyed those collabos.

didn't read the thread so sorry if I sound redundant... but I think Cube/Muggs made some bomb music on the Predator and wish they didn't fall out with the whole Cypress Hill beef.

and Cube IMHO has 4 classics

Amerikkkaz Most Wanted
Ill At Will
The Predator
Lethal Injection

I will probably bump the Peace disc next. Not one of my fav Cube albums just from the simple fact that it seems thrown together and he did not follow the original format of content and subject matter that he said he would previously for the album. Still a good party record here and there.

Well first he dropped the War disc in 98. (That is one of my favorite Cube albums) Then Peace did not come till 2000, 2001. He was supposed to drop them both in the same year a la DMX at the time so when Peace came out it seemed rushed. And it just seemed like it was We Be Clubbin the album at times. Like I said it had some dope production and has a couple really stand outs tracks, just is not one of my favs from him.
