Title: Capone (Of CNN) "Pain, Time, Glory" Appreciation Thread.
Post by: Lunatic on January 20, 2009, 08:09:32 PM
Was going through the vault on DUBCC cause a homie was bragging about CNN to me and I ain't never heard their shit. Came across this albums' credits and was surprised to see so many guest features which I am a fan of (Scarface, Devin, Butch, Bun B, C Murder, etc) so decided to download this album. Not only was I surprised at how much I liked it, I was shocked at how good Capone really is. Some really hot shit on this album.

Best tracks:
What's My Name (Soldier Story)
Diet Plan
Nowhere to Run Ft. Scarface
I'm Gone Ft. Devin the Dude & Butch Cassidy
The Manual
Miss My Doggs
Streets Favorite (Oh No)
Chitty, Chitty, Bang, Bang

Only tracks I disliked were:
All 4 U
It's Been a Long Time
Fuck Yo' Set

Great album!

yeah I bought this album back when it dropped, definitely some dope cuts on there

CNN's War Report album is a classic too, check that one out if you haven't already  8)

Like Al and Blood Money said if you dig this, you will lose your mind when you hear the War Report. One of the best albums dropped in 96.

Yeah this was a great album with only like 1-2 songs which I'd skip. War Report is classic but you also need to check out their 2nd album Reunion & Nore's first album. Those 2 CDs are crazy, you won't be dissapointed.

^I will check out "Reunion." I was going through the vaults to see what's up with NORE and all his albums looked like BS accept the first one. So I downloaded the first one and will peep it today most likely  8)

Props Jome for the 2 new CNN tracks & the Capone leftover, great track btw. They also got a song with Busta Rhymes "Rotate" (new single). Here's the mp3: http://www.zshare.net/audio/537546707bab8996/ & below you can watch behind the scenes footage.

^^ Np.

ROTATE was originally a Nore track, but Nore said it got such good buzz that he threw Capone on it and made it a CNN single.
In one way I hate it, but that hook is annoyingly catchy.

Oh when I first heard it I felt it sounded more like a NORE song than a Capone-N-Noreaga one. I like the song as a club banger but I don't like it as a CNN song, if that makes any sense lol. Yo Jome you got anymore unreleased or rare CNN songs??? I got some rare stuff if you wanna trade.
