Title: Ras Kass.... Van Gogh... 3 mics??
Post by: Big BpG on October 10, 2001, 10:08:25 PM
I dont have the new source, but did Ras Kass get 3 mics???

that's terrible in my mind... we were expecting a lot from this cat... if the source gave it a three then it must really be bad... im not saying believe the source, but damn 3 mics is like .... well... i heard more people like teecee tear on this album... i might need to listen to this before i purchase...

actually i would say if the source gave a west coast album a 3 or 3.5 its probably realistically worth 4 or 4.5

fuck the source

Yea i knew the source hating would start... but if he got 3.5 thats better in my mind... if it was 3.0 mic then I would wonder... i dont think the source would even give a good album a 3 for no reason.

GUys, i am a huge Ras fan, i have had the album for about two months, i have listened to it extensively, it really is only a 3.5 mic album, the Source actually didn't fukk up for once.  I love Ras, i think his first album is incredible, 5 mics, and he gotta come with that shit again.  It's like how we all waitin for Snoop to return to the essence, well, true blue Ras fans down from day one waiting for his return too.  PEACE

Im not saying you should live and die by the Source's ratings, but in all fairness they are a Hip-Hop magazine and I feel that their mic system is a nice guideline to use.   If an album gets 4 mics in there, Im willing to check it out.  If an album gets 3 mics there a good chance its just mediocre at best.  Of course, we're  not going to all agree with what the source says because the reviews are written by 1 person , but to say "Fuck the Source" because they gave your favorite artists 3 mics--thats retarded.

actually they've constantly given my favorite west coast artists low ratings, from Quik to DPG to C&C to X Raided etc etc etc. dont ever insinuate that i'm a retard, because to be honest my little toe is more intelligent than you.

Aww..Did I hurt somebodys feelings?  Suge is sorry :(

Give me a break.  I didnt say youre a retard..I said youre view on the source is retarded.  And they didnt give the new Kurupt/Daz CD 3 mics...I think it got 3.5.  And if you look at their system, they consider 3 mics to be a good album.  So you and your little toe need to relax, Sunshine.  Dont start no shit, there wont be no shit.

???

I heard that Ras Kass has actually strayed away from his old style. Now he's claiming to be a G,thug etc...
Much like what happened to Xzibit.

I might pick up Van Gogh cause his flow is tight
