Title: Am I The Only One?
Post by: AlerG on November 26, 2003, 10:38:47 AM
That feels that the Black Album isn't worth all the hype. I mean there's some standout tracks but i don't think that it's real solid all the way through. The fact that he left off the Primo tracks and out on half of the tracks on the cd is rediculous. Don't get me wrong, this is an above average release but nowhere near classic status. At least that's the way i feel after a couple listens. The tracks i feel are:

What More Can I Say
Threat
99 Problems (Easily The Best Joint)
Public Service Announcement
Lucifer
My 1st Song

Ok Tracks:
Justify My Thug
December 4th
Encore
Dirt Off Your Shoulders
Moment Of Clarity

Wack Tracks:
Change Clothes And Go
Allure

i really can't stand that Primo got the shaft and those two Neptunes made the cut, maybe i'm just a little disappointed and my opinion might change as the cd grows on me but i just don't get the chills i got when i first heard Reasonalbe Doubt and Blueprint...even Volume1 & 2 and also The Dynasty sounded alot better to me, but i guess time will tell how i really feel about this cd, peace.

I give it 4 solid mics.. 2-3 tracks could easily have been left off, and with all the hype of Dre and Primo-tracks, the disappointment automatically removes half a mic.
The album also lacks a real headbanger/huge track.

Disagree. Only song I didn't like was Change Clothes. It's all opinion but I'm loving this album.

I think it's his third-best album (after "Reasonable Doubt" and "The Blueprint")! The only songs I don't feel are the "Intro" and the single "Change Clothes". Even "Allure" is okay after a few listenings. I like the album very much - it's in my record-player since it's release 8)
