yeah no im jus wonderin where this album rates outta all the other wu albums especially ob4cl 1?




yeah i mean some of the wu sites are goin damn near insane bout this album..given their wu sites but still and the album sounds dope and might be the best album in a minute period (coast 2 coast)




damn im sayin more....maybe double
from the buzz its been gettin maybe even more
interestin to see what happens




I say dudes gonna move more then 30k in first week

Lately nothing can surprise me, its too hard to make it today, but yea you are right, I hope he will sell more then 50k first week
'Cause the hardcore Wu fans have been waiting on this album for nearly 5 years and Rae came through with a banger that made believers out of the doubters.

It's not going to set any trends like OBFCL did (a lot of rappers started giving themselves aliases and rapping mafioso style due to the impact of this album). The music and lyrics on OBFCLII is right up there, though, with the 1st one, IMO.  I haven't heard an album this good and cohesive in the past decade.

IMO, yes. Just browsing my WMA for great hip-hop albums of the last decade: The Slim Shady LP, Tha Streetz Iz A Mutha, 2001, The Marshall Mathers LP, Supreme Clientele, Stankonia, Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, Last Of A Dying Breed, The Fix, The W, The Blueprint, Hood Rich, 1st Cee-Lo Solo, The Eminem Show, Stillmatic, Phrenology, Quality, Get Rich Or Die Tryin', 213-The Hard Way, To Tha X-Treme, College Dropout, No Said Date, MM..Food, The Sound Of Revenge, Ultimate Victory, Grandmasters, Trauma, The Documentary, Doctor's Advocate, Late Registration, Graduation, 808's..., Searching For Jerry Garcia, Thug Motivation: 101, Hell Hath No Fury, Fishcale, The Pretty Toney Album, St. Elsewhere, Idlewild, Nas' Untitled, I, BTNHResurrection, Strength & Loyalty, A Song For You, Be, UGK, American Gangster, Food & Liquor, The Cool, 8 Diagrams, Waitin' Our Turn, Pro Tools, Emeritus, The Carter 2, Blaqkout, Relapse, Dopium, Chamber Music... I know I missed some, and many of these can be argued as not the "greatest" of the past decade, but I do think OBFCLII is a more cohesive and better album than all of these listed. It takes time, though, to think of an album like this. But, I know 10 years from now this album will get plenty of spins from me.

Best album in the last decade?

It's a good MAFIOSO rap but it's all lies and story telling so it's like Rick Ross.  Both made good records but they only carry so much credibility to me because it ain't the truth.  I like fictional stories every now and then so I'll bump it then but I prefer real shit. 

Besides Masta Killa two albums are better than ... :) 
I know no one will agree with that statement so ... :)


I'd take Reks Grey Hairs over this record any day.  Shit, I'd take 50's Get Rich or Die Trying over this. 
Cool breeze; I'm hopping out of new Beams
My outfit ran me a few G's but none of that will matter if you leave
I used to be an Adam with two Eves and shawtys automatically do me
Excuse me, all that happened before you doesn't matter
I'm a vision of the future climbing the success ladder
Recline, in the mean time, twenty three shine, diamond bling blind as I rewind

Man, it's all entertainment. Ain't any rappers living up to what they say in their rhymes. Rae's a real dude from the streets, so he can paint pictures like this. And to say GRODT is better storytelling and music than this is ridiculous (but to each their own). Masta Killa's albums are dope, too (No Said Date is a classic in my book), but don't live up to this album.

For me, not that I have to say this because whenever I type I'm obviously inserting my thoughts and opinions, I'd take an album where there's an ounce of truth even if it's been glamorized and sensationalized a bit over say a complete piece of fiction.
