Thanks to Ja Rule, this was the height of D12's career

I also don't know why anyone would want to beef with 50 in the early 2000s, dude was merciless. The only dude that got at him was Jadakiss (Checkmate is probably top 5 diss tracks ever).

Not sure what people will think of this, but this reminds me of a early/mid 2000s G-Unit single and it's pretty cool for what it is. Also Young Buck owns.

Rhycool posted:

So PRhyme is playing a show the same day there's a festival going on nearby, which is headlining Kendrick and Q.

My gut says PRhyme will be the true killer show, but I was curious to check out Kendrick. Anyone know how they all stack up live?

I just recently bought tickets for a PRhyme show in Boston and it's at a pretty small place that I imagine is going to be awesome for a rap concert. I definitely prefer shows like that to bigger festivals (even though Kendrick/Q would obviously be awesome).

To jump back into TPAB, I think it's a good (maybe great) album, just not on the same level as GKMC. Thematically it's a lot broader, and while I think the themes are important/worth making music about, I think it makes the album feel less focused and maybe a bit too chaotic (which is maybe the point). Musically it's really interesting, but it's just so layered that it's impossible to just relax and listen; the high points of the album are generally the points where the production is at its most crisp. Whoever was talking about "accessibility" or whatever was right. I'd probably give it an 8/10 or something. :shrug:
