WC Revenge Of The Barracuda Official Discussion!

[B.A.]

It's dope, the beats have more of a professional/unique sound to them unlike most of the beats that Cube has been using on his last few albums (to me have a generic dime-a-dozen sound to them). The only track that I feel that should have been replaced with something else is "Hustla" Ft. Juvenile, imo it has a very commercial sound to it, not that that's a bad thing if that's what your into but I think someone like Drake or one of those type of rappers would have sounded better over the track; Dub sounds better over some harder/grimmier production. Other than that I think it's very solid I give it a 4/5.

^Holy...wtf? Damn

[Detox Is A Myth!!!]

The are five bomb tracks to me: What's Good ( ), Reality Show, That's What I'm Talking About, The Spot, Dub C -- probably in that order.

You Know Me is destroyed by gay male singing on the hook (this trend needs to stop now! -- put a female on there if you want singing)

A lot of the songs I'm not really feeling have good things to them but also have clear flaws -- mostly the hooks (e.g. Walking in my Taylors, You Know Me, etc.).  Dub comes correct on all the songs and the beats are dope.  The instrumentation and arrangements are kind of formulaic, but that's to be expected from an independent record.  The second half gets a little experimental, as well, which is more risk/reward depending upon your taste as a listener.

Overally, probably on par with Guilty By Affiliation...which is not a bad thing!  But I keep my expectations in check.  I'm not expecting another Curb Serving.

I can kinda see what your saying as the first half of GBA imo was raw as hell; the beats and hooks were hard but I think the second half of GBA could have been better. ROTB, production wise, isn't as hard as the first half of GBA but it does have a more classic west coast feel that I think is dope. Overall, I think ROTB is a better album, it's more balanced and is easier to listen to all the way through but the first half of GBA does have some serious bangers. As long as Dub keeps putting out heat I'm good either way.
