which one was war report 2? and yeah, im hoping its still a Wu record. Deck, Golden arms etc still gotta eat.
Rae's not my favorite but yeah, i cant argue with CL2 as one of the best wu efforts in years. Ghost...Doe rehab was good, not as good for me as fish/more fish but at least a step up from ghostini, ugh.
nothing new on Liquid Swords 2?

War Report 2 was the new Capone N Noreaga album.

Too bad it seems like Ghost has kinda given up. Fishscale was his CLII, but it didn't seem like he capitalized off it as well or smart as Rae has. Rae has 120,000+ followers on twitter, everything he does gets attention on hip hop blogs, etc. He's giving fans what they want, constantly keeping in touch with them, and keeping his name out there. Whereas Ghost sits around complaining that no one buys his albums.

You know where he fucked up. Being lazy on that MF DOOM project. There was so much hype over that project. MF DOOM is ready, Ghost was not, they still want to do it. But it all comes down to Ghost. Ghost needs to be Ghost, not some "I should be mainstream" rants that he does. Just stick to your hard beats and rhymes, Ghost. You know what he needs? 9th Wonder and Madlib beats. Ghost was on a flow on the early 2k's, but now, he's looking for a identity.

Anyway, the way I see it, Ghost wish he was this guy(Awesome album BTW, Out on the 23 of September, getting the vinyl, even if I have the cd already)

I got an album or mixtape recently and it had a song there that uses some dialogue from Flash Gordon. Mainly that scene where they're torturing the girl for info on Gordon. Anyone help me out? I cant seem to find it.

Been listening to College Dropout a lot recently - some of this may be nostalgia, but that is a perfect album. Better than I remember it.

If doing a track with Bieber or some Pop Icon means we don't have to wait six+ years between albums then I'm all for it. Can we get a Katy Perry + Rae track next month? Maybe that'll speed up the release of Shaolin vs Wu-Tang.

...and I come in here and here you guys talking about Diggy's tape like it's the shit. :lol WTF is going on? Save for a few tracks, that Nando mixtape is stellar. Not disposable in the least bit. And there's a song that will be your new theme if you're a fan of old school wrestling.

Is it good, or just a bunch of punchlines over subpar mixtape beats?
Click to expand...

No it's far more like a real album. Mostly Statik Selektah beats, real new york vibe to them.

It is a real album...It's an EP, not a mixtape.

I don't consider anything other than a full length album a "real album"...but thats because i'm a greedy fuck who hates it when an album is too short lol

Whoa, Airborne is my first time hearing Diggy. The results are very encouraging.

"Big Bad World" is sick, dope beat, nice hook, and Diggy's verses flow perfectly with the song.

Yea. Ghost doesn't seem to realize he's not owed anything, he has to work for it. Raekwon grinded, got the people on his side, and gave them what they wanted. So many producers want to work with Ghost, I don't see why he doesn't get the message. 9th works with so many broke ass underground rappers I doubt money has anything to do with it.
