Mannie Fresh worked well in the 90's, his sound is just boring now. It comes across like a guy who doesn't understand why his old style doesn't work anymore while trying badly to imitate some of the newer guys. I was never a big CMR fan anyways. Better than No Limit though.

Beats by the pound was dope....
And Mannie Fresh aka Freshly Snipes... Has aged well. A lot of the Crunk movement was him.. He even made Lil Flip sound good for a song. Also Take Your Shirt off is about as different as it gets for him

I'm half way through the album right now. Nothing's really catching my attention. Production is great of course. Get someone else on the mic...
Edit: Oh, I got UKNOWBIGSEAN, not FF3. I remember having to tag the songs.
Blaq Poet f. Vinnie Paz & Lateb - Bushmaster Music Can't wait for the album next week.
That whole No Limit/Cash Money era was when I was kneedeep in stuff like Common, De La, The Roots etc... and I had absolutely zero interest in the No Limit sound. It wasn't until after college that I learned to enjoy a balance of multiple styles.
I think my tastes went
early 90's : Gangsta Rap
Mid 90's : East Coast Rap
Late 90's : Conscious Rap
Early 2000's : Underground Rap
Mid 2000's : A little of everything.
I went through a brief Southern Rap obsession phase as well.

Just Blaze said dude was literally homeless, then got big. So I can understand his general mindset of wanting to see the world, buying new clothes/phones/etc. The problem I have is that he could be one of the biggest "underground" rapper in the world, but sits on his ass instead. He could make so much money touring, he hasn't released a single mixtape or album.
I really don't think he'll stay on Roc Nation. Thus far he has wasted two huge opportunities: the aftermath of the official Exhibit C release, and the aftermath of the Roc Nation signing with the Mountain Dew ad.

I remember spending all Christmas in Detroit with family, then driving home thinking oh man Act II is waiting for me woohoo
...
I've been over him for some time now. If he releases something sweet, but I don't care enough to think about it anymore

Yeah, my Jay Electronica hype died.
To a lesser extent, I feel the same way about J. Cole.
