GOLDEN YEARS

fuck clinton

dumb greenspan swindlee

fuckin up the whole damn economy brainwashing the nation sucking his dick

man was dumb, seriously

at least the problem of political spectrum resulted relatively favorably Amirite

did it?

i mean be serious the rightward swing that made capitalism rap palatable is finally startin to swing back but its not like we didn't fuck some shit since 80

if you guys turn a Mase thread into a lame fucking political argument your cards are getting pulled permanently

I can't hear u Hoos, i see smart rap as money empires, like what 50 will create, or at least cells within america gaining access to an industry that will welcome their ideals

WOO HAH

jd, i'm just setting the table when mase was pop, french designers diddy brought in, not being above or independent, being rejected by the mainstream underground except when ppl were patient enough to dig through the corpocratic invasion of the industry forced them to be, the smartones the indviduals who struggled out and the faggots who embrace gay style

not to belittle BIG, who rapped right around it

got enveloped in it, and got killed

whose the heros in this tragedy, thats the integrity and mysticism of rap. what will this dialog result in

hip hop aint a music trend, its a manifestation and conversation of oppressed groups within society. chicken sufferage

Yo, check this out right
Harlem on da rise
And you don't want no problem with us guys, uh
M-A-dollar sign-E
And if you ever out tryin' to find me
I think I should warn you
I get hard when I want to
Angelettie, Bad Boy, niggas ain't ready

M-A-dollar sign-E
M-A-dollar sign-E
M-A-dollar sign-E
M-A-dollar sign-E
M-A-dollar sign-E

I'm almost glad I got the clean version cause it woulda been weird hearing the dirty versions of all these middle school jams

the mainstream underground

Finally got this. My issues with the dude prior were his marblemouthed drawl and appearing on tracks with better rappers, but this shits solid.

He isn't any Nas or anything but his rhymes are simple yet catchy and effective, production pretty subdued for a late 90s Bad Boy album...if anything I would have liked a more glitzy production.

Wonder if his kids will get grounded if caught listening to this.

lol @ harlem world thread being back n forth between hoos & usic

chicken suffrage

Was usic also luriqua?

yes

hoosic-n-hour mess age

lol i was rereading this like "does anybody else show up oh god now i'm trying to talk about capitalism"

ending the album with "Jealous Guy" = wtf, at least the joke singy Biggie track was fun and in the middle of the second disc.

(on Life after death that is)

'jealous guys' is hilar

i don't like it as an album ender tho. you usually wanna end on a high intensity number!

Coincidentally just found a copy of this with a cracked cd case in my local library's dollar bin right on the record's anniversary. Never heard it before but it sounds fun!
