nicefor them,that album is pretty tight

Yeah, it'll easily go Platinum.  Which means...50 isn't going under, which means...we'll have to endure more of his wrath.   Hopefully, Mobb Deep and M.O.P's albums will be good if they ever come out.

I feel kinda sorry for Chamillionaire, because "The Sound of Revenge" is one of the best Southern rap albums I've heard all year, and it flopped so badly.  I guess they should've released it sooner, because waiting too long must've killed his hype.

And goddamn...why the fuck are the Black Eyed Peas still so high on there?  I don't even see any of the kids on campus bumpin that album, so I'm still trying to figure out how they're doing so well right now.  It sure as hell ain't acclaim from the alt-rap crowd, since they already sold out their underground constituency years ago.
