classic album, banks doesnt rap on it but he did his thing with the beats. to me every song is classic besides "you want me back", which isnt really bad for what it is but i dont think it really fits

just downloaded this a few days ago, it was a 320 kbps version, but most of the tracks sound not so good (quality wise), might have to do my thing to some of em so i can put em on my ipod, BUT YEAH, this album litterly has everyone on it, (cube,face,pac,dre) definately a hot ass album 8)
-
great album!Banks did his shit production wise and it has some dope ass verses form some of the all time greats
-
This is a pretty good album - well, a compilation, essentially - but every time it gets discussed here the same thing comes up - the sound quality. I have an OG CD copy and it's fucking awful. You have to jack the volume right up, and even then it's lacking. It's a shame, because the whole point of Ant Banks' production is that thick bass. You wouldn't know that from listening to a lot of this album.
-
sad but true.I hope Crip touches it up a little bit, I'm sure he'll be able to improve the sound quality
-
....maybe Snoop will get it re-issued it & re-mastered as the head of Priority... ;)
-
this album is much appreciated.
-
I like the fact that almost every track is duets or groups of artists together.

This album stiil bangs to this day, even without the notable dpg family being featured.
-
...and wait 'til u hear the new project and see who's on it... :o 8)
I can picture something like;
-Paris & Ren
-Mac Mall & Kurupt
-Dubee & Snoop
-The Jacka & Kam
-Yukmouth & Cube
-Ant Banks & Dre
:) :) :) :)
But I guess that's just wild dream... :-[
-
MC Ren is possible

banks is coming with some new shit? damn thats good news. do you know if its going to be more of a compilation like this album or a normal album?
-
MC Ren is possible
Probably... but wonder who Banks teamed him up with. (if that is)
-
why the fuck would a washed up mc ren be on ant banks new project?

It's simple ain't it?
Big Thangs was about LA teaming up with the Bay...
I figure the sequel will be something similar,don't you?
....+ Ren and Banks have worked on several projects together in the past,so.... ;)

So lets say the new generation is featured...
who would sound good together?
The Jacka,AP.9,Fed-X,Balance,Clyde Carson,D-Lo......
and;
Young Maylay,Taje,Omar Cruz,Jay Rock,Bishop Lamont......
?

i havent really heard any new banks shit in a while, i dont really have any idea what style hes going to be doing. as long as the beats are that classic banks sound and he has spice 1, too short and b legit and e-40 he can really put whatever new rappers he wants haha. i just hope hes not trying some hyphy shit
