Quote from: Meho on July 30, 2008, 04:05:14 PMSince these are just snippets, I'm mostly just gonna rate the production/vibe of the tracks:1. It Takes A Nation ---> out for a while now2. I Got My Locs On [feat. Young Jeezy] ---> meh, sounds like a South record3. Do Ya Thang ---> out for a while4. Hood Mentality ---> now this is some awsome shit, great production and Cube killed it5. Here He Come ---> another South-ish production6. Why Me? [feat. Music Soulchild] --> again great production from Teak "Da Beatsmith" Underdue & Dee Underdue, lovely background piano, Cube and Musiq both sound dope, more emotional track7. Get Use To It [feat. The Game & WC] ---> already out8. Jack N the Box ---> God DAMN, this is on some movie shit production from Tha Bizness9. Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It ---> already out10. Thank God ---> should be a dope track11. Tomorrow ---> adressing the rap game, Cube sounds hungry, nice choursSounds better than LNCL, Cube still sounds hungry as fuck, flow on point as always.Quote from: Laconic on July 30, 2008, 05:12:04 PM 1. It Takes A Nation- dope shit. 2. I Got My Locs On f. Young Jeezy-Southern feel to it. Lyrics are mediocre and beat is atrocious 3. Do Ya Thang- a grower with another southern feeling type of beat but bangs in the ride. 4. Hood Mentality-the best off the sampler, cant' wait to hear the whole track. 5. Here He Come f. Dough Boy-another southern type track with wack 808 splatters. 6. Why Me? f. Musiq Soulchild banging lyrics and concept 7. Get Use To It f. WC & The Game-okay but fell short expectation wise with another southern type beat 8. Jack N The Box-more south shit 9. Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It-dopeness, you already know 10. Thank God-sounds good, love the intro, tight lyrics 11. Tomorrow-love the way this sounds so far There should be another 5-6 tracks on the album and I'm hoping for much better beats. The lyrics are there for the most part but Cube apparently had a tin ear while recording some of this shit. Still looking forward to it and will purchase regardless.1. It Takes A Nation- dope shit. 4 out of 52. I Got My Locs On f. Young Jeezy- Cube; "Some real shit,non of that fake A&R watered down Hip Hop" ehhhhh 2 out 53. Do Ya Thang- nahhhh 2 out 5 4. Hood Mentality- sounds dope,a grower. 4 out 55. Here He Come f. Dough Boy- 1 out of 56. Why Me? f. Musiq Soulchild sounds like a grower... 3.5 out 57. Get Use To It f. WC & The Game- ehhh... 2.5 out of 58. Jack N The Box- 1 out 59. Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It- already a classic,lyrics and beat is on point 10 out 5 10. Thank God- sounds good, "thank god the gangster is back,we don´t have to put up with this brainless rap" 4 out of 511. Tomorrow- sounds tight 4 out 5ehhh,this leaves me with mixed feelings.

Most beats sound Cube with grillz and southern beats, and I thought this was an exception on LNCL... Not one song is on "Gangsta Rap made me do it" level.
