It's funny when he made that album average line @ NAS when American Gangster has been his only good album post 2006 return.
He needs to drop Dead Presidents 3. He just sounds tired and uninspired now. Kanye, Wayne, Cole, Lamar, T.I., Ross have been murdering him on his own ish.
Showroom 2 sounds lackluster.
The Prodigy/Achemist is a 4/5 based on the beats and passable lyrics. It would've been a 5 if it were He'll On Earth P.

oh man i wish i had something like that near where i live.
Add Prince Paul (and maybe Damon Albarn) and you might very well have the best line-up of all time.

OddOne's jigga thread is delivering, from BP3/KC defense forces to "i dont like hip hop past 1999 also what is nas"
I feel like she lost a bit of her thickness so she's not that 10 anymore. Still beautiful though.

No, the real track, no DJ, running the verse back. There's more.
He did the same thing with Ignorant Ish.
That's the Jigga I want to hear, not random name drops, slow flow, borrowed rhymes and lackluster performance.
And Blue Print 3 was eh. He sullied the name with 2 then 3.
He better leave the Reasonable Doubt name unsullied.
And the Alchemist/Prodigy is audio crack.
Also listened to Action Bronson's Saab Stories Extended. Harry Fraud is hit or miss. I did like the Rockers and Triple Back Flip.
Whiz Khalifa/Curren$y was a 3/5.
Still have a lot of catching up to do (Cole, Budden, Wale, etc).

Guize, what is a Nas and how do Google work? I'm so cool.
hah sounds like a good time. now to smoke weed.
He better leave Reasonable Doubt unsullied? Do you realize how ridiculous you sound? It is his music, he can name it Reasonable Doubt 2:Electric Boogaloo and he would have every right to do so.

Was revisiting some stuff that I wasn't really feeling and I have to really ask. Can yall say what is it yall see in Roc Marciano?
I went from Marcberg to Reloaded and I have to say I really dislike the direction he decided to take his raps. With Reloaded he completely embraced the dull monotone raps while at least Marcberg had tracks like Snow, Riding Around, and Panic(Funny how those tracks are back to back;favorites off that album too) that sounds like he is putting effort.
Edit: I should say I'm not trying to shit on him like I typically do, but I am actually curious

He still has more charisma than KA. But you know the monotone thing is all about bravado. When you can kick some real gangsta shit prime with metaphors and street allegories in a removed nonchalant manner, it makes you sound like a real mafioso motherfucker as long as you don't take it too far. I feel like Vince Staples and Roc both pull it off rather well, finding a happy medium, without sounding too aloof. It's like the old street philosophy that real killers move in silence. Vince & Roc Marciano are like the perfect foil in comparison to Gunplay and Ace Hood in gangsta rap. The effort they put in are in the rhymes and their flows rather than in their emotions.
I find that I like Roc a lot more when he is on someone else's track. I didnt think Marcberg or Reloaded were anywhere as good as the praise suggested, which disappointed me since I liked Roc on the features I heard.

I tend to like Roc on features too.
Maybe, but with KA I feel like it's his production that complements him much more. Tracks like Up Against Goliath come off so smooth, I couldn't see him tackling that track any other way than the way he did.
I like Vince Staples(Ab-Soul got killed twice on that tape) too. Maybe I'm just not really a fan of Roc.

Congratulations J. Cole, they are playing 'Crooked Smile' on this Pop Radio Station I listen to. Extending that listener base.
Miley Cyrus - We Can't Stop
J. Cole - Crooked Smile
Carrie Underwood - Before he Cheats
Toby Keith - Unknown Song Title, I skipped it. I like pop, but not that.
