BRING ON THE NEXT ONE

[Jaydc555]

Its a solid debut album.Theirs a few track that feel out of place and out dated probably because they were recorded so long ago.I was hoping eurry now and then would be on this I dig that track.

[Enigma]

"Eurry Now and Then" just didn't connect with the rest of this album the same way it did 2-3 years ago. A good chunk of these tracks (8-9) were recorded within the past 2 years, and Eurry Now and THen was the single when Realest was originally gonna drop this in '07.

With that being said, "Mind of Ah Madman," "N Luv With A Ghetto Gurl," "Grown Ass Man," and "Witness Tha Realest" were all recorded in 2004, but those were deemed too good to be left off the album when it came down to picking this final tracklist.

Much love to Nima for posting about this album in Tuesday's release post on DubCNN, and much love to anyone that has been willing to step outside the box and give this album a serious listen, despite all the negative stigmas that have been attached to Realest's name over the years.

I said it many times, I'll say it again: there's no way any honest hip hop fan cannot find something they like on this album.

The man makes better songs - not verses, but songs - than 90% of other rappers alive right now.

lol. everyone on here thinks that their rapper is better than everyone else. joe buddden fans are a good example.

Joe budden has to be the most average rapper ever and some dudes would let them impregnate their daughters just to consider him family


what a sad world

[Sofa_King_Awesome]

wow this dude is average maybe even wack

hey what the does the original khaled produced version of "witness the realest" sound like and why was it reproduced? after reading the credits(yes i copped it) it says produced by blaqtoven, originally produced by dj khaled. this is one of the best grimey tracks on the album. thats kinda false advertisement for the online promo saying theres khaled production.
what about tracks that never made the album like the ones he did with snoop,b-legit,richie rich etc??? we gon hear em on future albums or will they be leaked?
man team dime/rbc needs to step their promo game up if they want this to sell, no videos radio push etc???

[Enigma]

Blaqthoven added some new sound effects to it, and overall made it sound a lot cleaner, but that beat was definitely a Khaled beat, I was there when he played it for Realest and Joe the first time.

When it came down to mix the project, Blaqthoven added his own lil twist to it, and made it sound a lot better. Even though it says "Originally produced by Khaled", it should say "Produced by Blaqthoven and DJ Khaled," because that beat pattern was brought to the table by DJ Khaled.

cools... also who produced "y i keep my burna on me?" i noticed they forgot to list the producer under the credits for this track in the booklet. is 1500 the same production team that did "dopeboyz" from The Games "LAX" album?

Not quite. I think you missed my point. I'd willingly concede that other rappers can spit a better verse than Tha Realest. There are verses from Kurupt and Crooked I that Realest will never be able to touch. The point I'm making is that Tha Realest is able to make a better full track than most other rappers. Just listen to "Y I Keep My Burna On Me" and you'll see what I'm saying:
 

Sounds like 2Pac.  Not just the voice, but even the way he puts certain inflections on words i.e at 54 seconds in he says "I had my bad days", at 1:03 "immortalized, I could go on and on.  Why can't he just have a style that doesn't imitate a legend?

[rollindown101]

He's a good rapper but he needs to develop his own style. Take some of the Pac elements.. not all of them.. lol

He needs to make his own style.. something he can own for himself.

[YSH]

this dude laughs breathes like pac. listen to the album

i bet he didnt sound like dat b4 he met pac

[Blasphemy]

He never met tupac....

Tupac died in September 1996, he was signed in 1997. Anyone who honestly think that even if he met Tupac, That tupac would be cool with him is a moron. I mean he went off on Biggie, cause of how he stole the I'm gettin Money persona (and the same sample used for Who Shot ya was on another Tupac track around the time). So would he really give props to a nigga who looks,acts and does the same mannerisms to him?

At the time he went by another name and I'm pretty sure didn't bite until suge was using him for the second Dynasty, but tupac is rolling in his grave cause people think tupac be cool with this cat. Even if they was cool, if tupac was alive right now seeing this you know he would call the nigga out....so doesn't matter if the realest ever met tupac...

if u sound like some1 then im sure that aint yo fault but theres other rappers who try soundin like pac n use production equipment n shit so i wouldnt say the realest is a biter in that sense.. anyways why the fuck does every1 have a problem, i think his music is one of the best in this moment of time!!!!

now u must have heard about cristiano ronaldo, soccer player- who uses the same skill, trickery and foot movement like the brazillian ronaldo- does that mean hes a biter???

tha realest has respected pacs legacy on numerous tracks n the tattos n shit mean fuk all cos the guy was a pac fan and heavily influenced by him.. is it biting if u wanna play n dress like yo favourite basketball player???
grow up!! theres plenty of fakes in the game to expose than argue over some petty shit..

Lets break this red eye fuck down...

1. Only thing realest can't control his looks and his voice. Everything else (mannerism, way he talks in interviews like pac, and tattoos, laugh, style) all that is biting.

2. Only fags watch soccer

3.Difference between fucking respecting and fucking straight copying. The Realest is IN the game, he doesn't need to dress up and play, he is in the game he can make his own legacy.

4.True

5.Only reason he appears to be the best in this moment is because hes using tupacs style..

6.Besides of Tupac was alive you know realest wouldn't even try this, hell if Tupac came back to life or fucking out of hiding (which ever) and saw this, he'd fucking release Hit em up part 3. He disses biggie just because he was doing the "I got money" persona. Do you think he would allow such blatant copying?

I'll agree its not all the realest fault. Suge probably had some influence on his style, but we have to remember also, Suge Knight was only signing second generation rip offs (Realest and Top dogg) to try and appeal to the original fans. So really his ass got KIA before he even had a chance.
