Title: How many bought Kurupt - Against The Grain?
Post by: Capo Di Tutti I Capi on September 11, 2005, 07:07:08 AM
Since Kurupt is one of my favorite artists I bought it today and I think it's a solid release, 3.8/5

I got it about a week ago. Been listening to it all week.
I reckon, despite some dodgy lyrics this is a better cd than space boogie. The beats are much harder and kururt raps with more energy. Shame it had no promotion, i couldnt buy it anywhere in my town. Throwback music, anarchy and stalkin are my favourite tracks. ;D

I bought this album and after one listen I got THREE non-west coast non-Kurupt fans to buy it! This album is a banger, forget all the hate...

I intended to buy it, but was kinda swayed by all of the negative reviews I've read. Have yet to check it out for myself...

Wanted to buy this but after some of the reviews I read I didnt know if it would just collect dust. Def. will get it out tho.

Better than "Space Boogie"!!?? Damn! If thats the case I gotta hear this shit. "Space Boogie" is one of my fav. albums!

IMO it's no where near space boogie.  I didn't like my first listen of the album.  so I didn't buy it. 

on a side note, every where I do see it though, they have a GRIP.  like 30+ lol

was gona buy it, as kurupt is one of my all time fave artists, but i played the album again and its not worth my money....not enough good tracks and it sucks, Space Boogie was x1000 times tighter..

IMO "Jealousy" is the best track on there

I agree, thats what im sayin, there is such a big difference in quality of the songs, compare Jelousy to Stalkin(that one sucked)

anyway seer, i ordered some shit of cduniverse it totalled to about £35 , and there wont be any custom charges or anything will there? if you know from past exp?

Picked it up a week ago. Definitely worth the money.

i haven't got around to buying it yet.. i'm a broke motherfucker... but i'll buy it when i can afford it tho...

And altough this is an ok album, it's nowhere near Space Boogie... SB is a great album, with bangers from beginning to end... ATG has alot more skippers...

Ive only listened to it a couple of times since I downloaded it, I don't really like it, its a damn shame too because Kurupt used to be one of my favorite rappers.
