Very unique sound, you will not hear another west coast album or hip hop album that sounds like this. If Kurupt drops the rest of his "catalogue" of albums that he is talking about doing and they keep the quality of this release then he is on to something. His rhymes were solid, nothing awe inspiring but nothing really just rambling on and on about nothing. Quik is the fucking man period. Beats are lush and crisp and sound dope as fuck in my home theater system. Just good music. Some tracks were ehh and nah but overall dope.Quote from: D~Nice on June 04, 2009, 12:19:38 AMQuote from: Chad Vader on June 04, 2009, 12:15:11 AM^^^I got no problem with Kurupts "rambling" style about nothing. It's (one of) his styles. I'm looking forward to the Kurupt album with Mel-Man and Fred Wreck.When it has some rhyme pattern to it yeah it is cool at times. The one song he did with Short Khop is a perfect example for me of him just throwing some shit together for the sake of a collabo. I will have to find that track, but anyways yeah fans of the Kingpin lyrical assassin Kurupt will HATE this album. Yeah a album with Wreck and Mel Man and say Muggs or Pete Rock N Premo I think will evoke some lyrical darts from Gotti 4 sho.Quote from: dubsmith_nz on June 04, 2009, 01:34:20 AMQuote from: Chad Vader on June 04, 2009, 12:15:11 AMI'm looking forward to the Kurupt album with Mel-Man & Fred WreckMel Man & Fred Wreck?
