Title: "The Gift" is the best album to.....
Post by: caTASHtrophe on June 06, 2001, 03:00:51 PM

Come out in a long time. Lyrically BB comes out with stuff that i haven't heard
anyone talk about it years. None of this IM HARD/TUFF or IM REAL nonesense
but mad topics such as poverty/war/politics/death/faith etc.
He is easily ONE of the best lyricists out here today with styles/flow and lyrical contents
that few can match.
As for the production on this album all i have to say is fucking hell its amazing and
different at the same time.

To bad the album more or less went un-noticed.

Laterz :)

Dogg, When It Dropped, I Hyped It A Few Weeks In Advance, Then Practically Begged People To Buy It, And Put Up Some Audio Tracks, Interviews, Links, Anything I Could... I Did The Best I Could, But I Think You're Right, Most Peeps Didn't Buy It.  It's Prob. The Best Album In A Year Or So...

For real man.

This album is highly under-rated. It more or less destroys 90% of the albums released within the last year or so but then again that has been the case with a lot of bone stuff. They come out with incredible (or good) albums but go un-noticed.

Bone is off the heazy... especially Bizzy... he just comes with mad flows and tight lyrics... this is one of my favourite albums in a LONG time

Yo tell me what the rapper is and the name of the album and I'll go out and buy it if you people are saying it's that good and I've being waiting for a while for people to talk about poverty etc. real world issues cause I am trying to be a rapper and that was wot I was gonna rap about cause people seemed to avoid that stuff for some reason.

Just check out some of these lyrics to see how good he's become.....

"All we need is a little love, and someone standin for the little thugs. And I see brutality all over, niggas killin niggas. The ghetto got guns, they ain't born to be killas. Flooded with drugs, and tryin to get us, so get up, and don't give up. Ya'll gotta sit up and feel us before they kill us. And that's the realest, God, come heal us. Pillage the village and we'll be one up. I love all of the niggas the way we take it to another level, so many rebels doin’ they best, shit forever remembered. And in the killin fields everybody's locked up, and good niggas gettin shot up, that’s the vendetta. " (Father)

"Heavily in this drug thang, and if they can stop Saddam from selling missiles, how are we saturated with pistols? They done legalized and taxed it with shame, and mark my words, they doin’ the same thing with cocaine and herb! How do we elevate in the world? Jesus, plant the seeds and help these little boys and girls ease they mind, and I ain’t talkin’ about smokin’ weed, the word is all you need! Follow my lead, i’m thorough! I’m narrow with different homies, bail thru different buroughs. Have double barrel, pearl handles, and my soul cracked the Sheryl! That ain’t a blast fiend, God cleansed and saved my soul. And ain’t no turnin’ around, ‘cause the morals can’t cope." (Murderah)


Believe me, this album runs things.

This is the best album I bought this year. Sure I only bought 8 albums and the year is only half done but its still one of my favorites.

Like I have said before it can't be compared to other albums that have been released lately. It got a different feel and style. It is definitely one of the most slept on records this year.

Hey, I Thought Of Another Way To Describe It.

Yall Know How Carribean Music Just SOUNDS Different? Well, That's How This Album Is To Rap... You Can't Explain It, It Just Sounds Different.

I used to think Bone was tha shit.... Bizzy used to be my favorite member.... now I'm a lil more into Krayzie though...

Not to diss anyone cuz it seems like you all like him but Bizzy is starting to get annoying as hell... I aint feelin' his poverty/war/politics/death/faith  topics... and you can't lie... he's starting to sound and look more feminine in every other video he's on.

Ohh yeahhhh The gift is better than layzies isn't it.

Post by: Trauma-san on June 07, 2001, 01:26:15 PM
Hmm... Yeah, it Is.

And Call Me What You Want, But I Do'nt Care If he Acts And Looks more Feminine Each Video... Who Cares?  The Guy Weighs What, 80 Pounds?  He's Just Onna Those Guys That Likes To Look Good... Like Butch Cassidy, Snoop, Goldie Loc, Etc.  I Could CARE LESS... LOL... That's Them...

Plus, He's A SINGER... It's Not Feminine, It's Singing.  Come On Now; If You're A Rapper WHo's Tight, AND Can Sing, You're Even More Talented...

  Call you what I want?? I wasn't tryna call you anything... my post wasn't even directed to no one.

  I guess Bizzy's cd could be better... if you like Bizzy.

  I DO care that he's gettin more feminine lookin' in all his videos.... I dont know.. he just looks and sounds gay.

  Krayzie, Nate, Kokane (I guess), TQ, Butch Cassidy... They're all SINGERS.... they dont sound that feminine though.

Snoop sounds like that too when he makes his gay ss voices...


Like for example:

"[Nate]
Heeeeeee betta Lay Low
[Snoop in a feminen voice]
Lay Low, Lay Low"


Well thats just an example, but a lot of people do that shit, it's still tight az hell///

He has a high voice. He can't help it. Thats what made him so big and thats what makes me listen to his music. Plus I prefer his war/ politics/ poverty rap better than most os the "fuck a bitch", "I got so much ice, bling bling" and "imma blow your brains out" rap topics. Its about time someone come out with those kinds of topics.

But of course everyone got their own opinions.

Who knows. I think he/she/it did it to seriously find a woman but now its probably for fun since he got a negative reaction.

- I Didn't Say You Did....

- That's Your Problem :) Why YOu Gotta Assume He's Gay?  Unless I Hear Him Saying "I Do Men", I'll Keep Taking His Multiple Kids As Proof Of His UnGayness.  Plus, People Don't Just TURN Gay, They're Usually Always Gay....

  Krayzie, Nate, Kokane (I guess), TQ, Butch Cassidy... They're all SINGERS.... they dont sound that feminine though.

Butch Cassidy And Kokane Sound Exactly Like Bizzy... Did You EVEN Buy The Album?  You're Really Speaking On Something It Doesn't Sound Like You Know About...
Title: Re: "The Gift" is the best album to.....
Post by: Cliftone_Santiago_909 on June 08, 2001, 02:52:19 AM
 LoL... naw I haven't even heard Bizzy's album yet... I've know who Bizzy is and how he sounds..... I also know who Kokane and Butch Cassidy are and how they sound.... and if you really think any of those three sound alike then you need to pass whatever it is you're smokin'

 I never said I heard his last album though... I JUST said that I dont like Bizzy ANYMORE cuz he started to sound gay over the years.... just look at his new video... If you look at his new video and then listen to the Bizzy on E.1999 you wont believe the same person on that video is rappin those lyrics.

 NIK: I know what you're talkin bout with that Snoop voice but the difference is that Snoop does that shit on purpose.... I dont think Bizzy can control his gay squeeky ass voice anymore.

 oh forgot to answer your question.... No, I haven't bought his album... I dont plan to either.

LOL You OBVIOUSLY Haven't Heard It, Glad We Straigtened That Out...

Since The Topic Of The Post Is How Good "The Gift" Is, Why Even Reply If You Haven't Heard It, And Don't Want To?

It's A Good Album, I Think.  He Also Uses Some Of The Bone Catch Phrases... One Song Is "Still Thuggish, Ruggish"... He Says "Bone, Bone, Bone , Bone"... "And We Pray, And We Pray", Etc.  He Sounds Exactly The Same As Before...

The Song "Before I Go" Sounds Like A 2pac  Song, His Flow Is So Hot.... You Oughta Check it Out.

 No shit huh? Why did I post?

 LoL... I dont even remember... I guess I was just giving my reason for NOT listening to the album... you know, the whole thing about how he sounds gay? So I guess reading what all you had to say made me think about how I felt about Bizzy and I decided to share... It was easier than starting a new thread titled something like "Why I Dont Like Bizzy Nomore".. cuz all of you were already on tha subject.

  And then you replied to my shit and If you haven't noticed already.... I'm one of them people who has to get his last words in... even when I aint really got shit to say, just kinda make shit up as I go along.... kinda like I did on this post...

Slightly off the Topic  but in order of who's the best members in bone i'd say....

- Flesh n Bone
- Krayzie Bone
- Layzie Bone
- Bizzy Bone
- Wish Bone

Lyricaly Bizzys the best member and i love this CD but when they are all together i don't like his new voice. On Paper Paper (BTNHRESS) he spoilt the track with his whiny voice and the same goes for a few other tracks (although his voice also make a few tracks better).

And i completly agree with CRIMINAL_909 about his E.99 style being SOOO MUUUCH better than his new present style.

But regardless of his voice and style the Gift is an incredible album

Post by: Sikotic™ on June 08, 2001, 05:47:37 PM
Best of Bone[/u]
Bizzy/Krayzie (Tie. I can't decide who is better)
Flesh-N-Bone
Layzie Bone
Wish
