DUBCC - Tha Connection > Outbound Connection
This is going to be controversial but in my opinion New Danger > The Love Below
On The Edge of Insanity:
Yeah Grown Man Business just uses the same sample as the Nas track. Overall I just felt that the New Danger was better than Love Below, it felt more personal to Mos to me than Love Below did for Andre. The whole electronica/Prince thing on Love Below just annoyed me after a while, and I actually ended up trading in that double Outkast album cause there was nothing that made me want to listen to either of the cds. The Mos album may not be the best put together album ever, buts that because I don't think Mos himself really knows what he is at the moment, rapper, signer, musician, actor, and you see that in the songs on The New Danger. Plus, when your Black Jack Johnson group includes legends such as Bernie Worrell then you know that the band played elements aren't going to let your album down.

On The Edge of Insanity:
Yeah I thought the rock elements on the album were pretty tight.

yes. I like "Rape Over" cause it's short and has kind of a sarcastic message he delivers nicely, so it's like a skit and i kinda like it. But "Grown Man Business" does bother me, it's a full-length song with a recycled beat and Nas' rapping shitted all over both Minnesota's and Mos' back in like 1999 when he recorded it...he made that a hella dope song and from what I know he was the first to use that beat

you do know its a sample...

yeah i did know it's a sample, i admit i didn't remember who had been sampled, but thing is it's like Jenny From The Block: It's the same excerpt of the same song, sampled in the exact same way, the whistle part in the background is brought in the same way at the same point and the track starts off and shit kicks in in the exact same way too...so well, anybody who hated J-Lo for usin "Hi-Jack" like Ju did, the fact it's a sample don't 'defend' Mos. I'm not sayin it's a crime, but it is kinda lame to put this on an album like that, especially when the rapper who first used it ripped the beat better

what makes this Mos solo album different that he shouldn't use a sample that somebody else has used?
