Title: We Come Strapped Vs. Safe + Sound
Post by: Tha Chemist on May 08, 2007, 07:32:10 PM
We Come Strapped (MC Eiht) released in 1994 and Safe + Sound (DJ Quik) released in 1995, during their beef and arguably the best solo album from Eiht & Quik, so which1 was better?

I really cant decide...quik rocked for that fall, winter and eiht got bumped all that summer.

Quik is a much better artist in evey way, but We Come Strapped is a hip hop classic, way better than Safe N Sound imo.

Safe + Sound is one of my favorite rap records, and Quik was on point with every song on that album.

I think it's senseless to compare these albums. S+S is G-Funk and We Come Strapped laid back, straight gangsta rap. Both albums are classics for sure, but I think they aren't comparable soundwise.
I would go with We Come Strapped tho, cause I love the laid back jazzy feeling of this album. "Compton Bomb" is a hell of a song, the best Eiht track imo.

You cant even compare the two albums for 1 reason , Quiks album is a soft party album , and Eiht's is a Hard, Dark , Hip hop classic , which held the #1 spot for 5 weeks straight , and had rush limbaugh and the president on his ass about the album ,


Plus the music on We come strapped is 10x more complex & musical , not just some simple clap beats like Quik that everybody gets way to happy about !!!! ::) ::)

Safe + sound hand'z down.. not cause im'a Quik fan.. but cause.. the music.. was just on another level..

exactly my reasons, i love we come strapped aswell, but safe and sound is on another level along with rythm al ism to being perfect music

Like a said which is the truth by critics and hip hop's greatest mc's , like Run dmc , busta rhymes and nas & redman & 2 pac , We come strapped is a masterpeice , you cant compare the two sorry , quiks groupies , its the facts homie , #1 ON THA CHARTS FOR 5 WEEKS STREIHT HOMIE , QUIK ONLY WENT GOLD , and what is he doin now ????  CORNY SHIT !!!!!!!!  ,


EIHT IS STILL MAKIN GREAT ALBUM - AFFILIATED - BEST ALBUM OF 2006 BY CRITICS !!!!!!! ::) ::)


DJ QUIK'S BEST ALBUM =  RHYTHM I - LISM   &  QUIK IS THE NAME   !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ::) ::)

quit dissing and just give yo opinion. and u act like eiht is doing something big. at least you constantly hearing bout quik on every la radio station. u hear bout eiht having a cd and never hear nobody talk about it quik always gotta show so he always making money. he still doing beats and put them out tha same day and see who sell tha most. and i never even heard we come strapped fully so im not even gonna say which one was better. and im not dissing eiht

exactly my reasons, i love we come strapped aswell, but safe and sound is on another level along with rythm al ism to being perfect music

my vote goes to We Come Strapped..............but for the same reason as above. The music was just crazy and unlike anything else i had heard at that time

one thing i really like is that the whole album sounds alike. willie z on the keys, the thick bass lines - it just all adds up to being a West Coast masterpiece

too bad Eiht didnt really follow that template with later releases. he needs to get back to producing aswell - and bring Willie Z and Slip back with him!
Title: Re: We Come Strapped Vs. Safe + Sound

yea, i would love to see him start using DJ Slip again

Hell Geah , WE COME STRAPPED is on a whole way other level , you cant compare a soft , party album talking about PUSSY on every song to a hip hop CLASSIC like WE Come Strapped !! 8) 8)  NIGGAZ THAT KILL  GEAH , BUCC BUCC BUCC !!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8)

We Came Straped is a classic but its repeitive and boring at times(same shit over and over again)...Safe + Sound has that fresh, funky feel to it, not to mentiion classic songs such as summer breeze, safe & sound, and dollaz and sense...
