Title: Where's Obie Trice?
Post by: D-TalkX on December 23, 2011, 11:38:35 AM
Hey anyone have any news on Obie these days? His album's coming, it's not, it is...blah blah

I don't even know why he left Shady to me it makes sense leaving because you don't want to get pushed back but he hasn't released shit so I don't get it.

Anyone?

He released an album after shady. Granted it wasn't new material. It was the album he recorded pre-shady and it's actually pretty damn good, I recommend it.

I'd like to something new as well.

He didn't leave Shady. I'm pretty sure he got released.

I thought Shady Records wasted a lot of energy on Obie Trice.  I don't see how Obie's talents are much better than any of the rappers in D-12.  He may have slightly more talent but talent alone doesn't mean you can put together memorable tracks.  I bet a Kuniva or Swifty solo would of been more memorable than Obie's solo's on Shady

He actually released two albums on Shady and he was def. doper than any of the members of D12, except for Eminem and Proof.

"Good Die Young" >>>>>> any Obie song.

The only Obie track I really felt was "Dope Jobs Homeless".  That was one of the first joints I heard from him so I was a fan right away.  I just was dissapointed when his album finally dropped.  "Shit Hits The Fan" was a great song but he had a lot of help from Em and Dre on that one.  It also didn't have much replay value.

I loved both his albums but cheers was loaded with great songs. The only weak songs were the ones featuring eminem.

Cheers was one of my favs. Didn't like 2nd Round though.

Thanks for the update but who knows if that release date will stick. Not much push for him these days...or any emcee for that matter.

Cheers was the better album, but Second Round's On Me was mixed very nicely and it just flowed nicely from start to finish.

cheers was cool, but second rounds on me is just dope  8) and he is definitely skilled i thought every1 felt that way, but i guess not lol

The biggest problem on second rounds on me was too much eminem production.
