O.C.-"Word...Life". Undeniable lyrics, dope beats, and very well developed themes. Beats are provided by Premier and various other producers. A timeless classic in every way.
Even without the 3 extra tracks(remixes) O.C. shows that he isn't letting anyone take the throne from him. This is most def. an album that can outshine Illmatic. He shows his versatility throughout the entire album & never lets down. Every track is a banger. Don't sleep on this. True poetry to the fullest.

Great ablum, I wouldn't say it's better than Illmatic, but its definitely one of the more slept on NYC albums ever.

I saw the Video for the first single when it came out, and i was really diggin it a lot.  But i guess i just slept on it.

A lot of people consider this on Illmatic's level. It's just that no hype surrounds it so people sleep on it. I thought it was an excellent album.
