Missed the Masta Killa album when it came out, so I gave it my first listen earlier this evening. Not something I'd rush out to get, but pretty solid album overall.
I’d say it’s a second tier solo Wu-Tang project. Which, given how incredible top tier Wu-Tang albums are, isn’t bad at all.Missed the Masta Killa album when it came out, so I gave it my first listen earlier this evening. Not something I'd rush out to get, but pretty solid album overall.
It came out so past their prime that it just got completely overlooked. Definitely not a top tier solo project but it definitely would have held its own and would have done way better had it come out a couple years earlier.I’d say it’s a second tier solo Wu-Tang project.

They can't have seriously thought BDP were from Brooklyn?!?!
Pretty solid start to the year. Will probably at least grab ODB.
What are y'all thinking for RHH? There's quite a bit of potential for 98 and 13 (excited about the W for 00).
Glass half full me is pulling for Black Star for 98.
My gut on the other hand is thinking we're going to get a different color variant of Capital Punishment put out late this year. I think if they did Black Star that would be essential anyway.
13 I'm hoping for Pusha, and Danny Brown would be a solid pick as well...but this feels like a Chance the Rapper, Drake or Mac Miller letdown.
I do vaguely remember them saying it was in the works at some point in time. I feel like again this is an essentials pick though so I'd be shocked at this one in RHH.Miseducation of Lauryn Hill? Would fit the HH50 newsletter list.
I also vaguely remember the discussion around whether it'd be a ROTM at all but I could be wrong about that part.I do vaguely remember them saying it was in the works at some point in time. I feel like again this is an essentials pick though so I'd be shocked at this one in RHH.
I keep missing out on Moment of Truth, I'd be ecstatic over that.98 hip hop I wouldn't be mad at:
Gangstarr "Moment of Truth"
Aceyalone "Book of Human Language"
Fiend "There's one in Every Family"
Lyricist Lounge vol. 1
Devin the Dude "The Dude"
Cam'ron "Confessions of Fire"
Pete Rock "Soul Survivor"
I'm guessing it'll be none of these!
Lauryn Hill would be essential for sure
Need to look at 2013 next
It's not gonna be Moment Of Truth (3LP) or Lyricist Lounge (4LP) because VMP only does 2LP tops for monthly. They could release them as store exclusives, though.98 hip hop I wouldn't be mad at:
