Title: Above The Law - Time Will Reveal
Post by: Funkadelic on February 13, 2003, 01:33:37 PM
I'm really listening to this album lately. I don't know why, but the beats are fucking dope. I have really no clue, but they transfer the really hot L.A summer days direct to my head, altough it aren't real summer tracks. Do you understand me?

One of my favorites. If I could have one West Coast album in instrumental form this would be it. All the songs Kaidy said plus Killaz In the Park (feat MC Ren), Endonesia, My World (love this song). Overlooked for sure, it is my favorite ATL CD. Does anyone else know what singles were released from this besides 100 Spokes/Killaz In the Park?

peace,

Endonesia was the second single/video released. ATL wanted Killaz In The Park to be the first video/single, not 100 Spokes, but Tommy Boy demanded more radio and video exposure and thought that 100 Spokes and Endonesia would accomplish that. The ideas we had for Killa'z video would of been some hardore west coast shit but..............................you know how major labels go, they bitch up for real, especially when they don't know west-coast history.

My favorite track on that album has to be "Shout 2 The True"

I think "Legends" is dope as fuck too (tracks like "X.O. Wit Me" Or "Adventures Of..." are straight heat). The only album release which I'm not feelin' that much is "Forever: Rich Thugs" although it's still pretty cool.

everyone should get Legends too. I put that right up there with Uncle Sam's Curse, I couldnt choose a favorite between those two. The musical ideas on those records are just incredible. Deep Az The Root is one of my favorite songs ever

Damon X recently talked about Above The Law's '98 independent release "Crime Filez" which was a compilation mostly produced by Big Hutch. Does anyone have that album?

Thanks for that info, I would have loved to see a Killaz video. And yeah Legends is dope too, I love Karma, LA Vibe, Set Trippin, Soliciting...the whole album. Livin Like Hustlers to Black Mafia Life to Uncle Sam's Curse to Time Will Reveal to Legends is an incredible string of quality albums. And yeah I like Forever too, I just don't think many people gave it much of a chance.

i liked forever rich thugs from the first day i bought it and a few days later i bought the hutch solo and i must say that both albums had some very cool production. i was a lil bit pissed tho cuz i bought the forever rich thugs with that 2killas remix (bonus track) and the sound quality was hella bad and it was a clean edit on a explicit cd. i cant understand why westworld cant release that dope track in nice quality & explicit. i mean what is the point? why did they release a bad quality track on a high quality cd?!?!? later damon told the fans that atl wanna release that single cd with fuck u hutch and the 2killas remix... but this project never saw daylight. the 2killas remix was off the hizzook! atl should give the fans that 2killas remix for free dowload on abvdlaw.com IMO....
