Immobilarity by Raekwon

Gotta give that a listen. i remember when it came out, cats were acting depressed, but Cuban Linx would be hard to top no matter how u look at, that shit was flames.

Tical Judgment day did that to me. Hated it when it first came out and then years later listened to it again for no reason and loved it.

Cee-Lo's first album did the same thing. Cee-Lo's Imperfect Imperfections. I remember alot of people down here in ATL loved it, but I thought it was just cause sometime people want to like something so bad just bc it represents them in a way that they make themselves like music that sounds like trash. Years later I heard it again and thought that shit was way ahead of its time. Miss him rapping like that while singing. Now, it's just........I can't say really what the hell he's doing.

On another note: You can also reverse the thread. What albums did you think were great and 10 years later realized they were bad or worse than you thought.

American Gangster from Jay-Z was like that for me. Solid album still, but when it came out I thought it was better than the Black Album. Later I had to take it down a peg

Solid album. It had no Ghostface or Rza production, I guess he felt like he needed to prove that he could make a good album without the aforementioned.

 

[natural born sinners]

Bp2 was wack to me, but it did have some bangers. I always felt if Jay had kept it to a one disc it would of made a decent album

 

[natural born sinners]

But I guess that could be said for most double albums. Correct me if I'm wrong but they did the double album to speed up the def jam contract right?

 

[Chinkz]

2pac: Still I Rise (c/o Outlawz)

Until The End Of Time

All Eyez On Me

Me Against The World

 

[Juttythe3rd]

I always said Blueprint 2 was great.

I find my even listening to American Gangster even more often now, its dope to me.

 

[The Recipe]

Yeah streets disciple is one of my favorite joints, there is a bunch of shit on the disc with luda I dont fuck with but overall the quality is there, its dope asf. Havent revisited bp2 tho it similar to SD, i think SD was a little better tho.

Beatnuts - Musical Massacre. At first, I bought the album beacause of 'Watch Out Now' (which was in the same vein as 'Off The Books' from the previous album) and 'Beatnuts Forever' but I've listened to it a few times in the past year and realized it's tremendously underated. Juju was a very good producer and they had bars. I try to listen to it every couple months or so.

 

[Trillfate]

Kurupt - Streetz is a mutha

 

[5 Grand]

Born to Mack - Too Short

When I was younger I thought Too Short couldn't rap. But now that Igo back and listen to him he's just at a different pace than East coast rappers. Freaky Tales sounds a lot better than it did when it first came out imo.

I thought AG was better than The Black Album from the jump.

Grand Puba 2000

I found the cd in the flea market for like 50 cents about maybe 3 years ago. I still listen to that album on the regular. I liked Puba a lot back in the day but I had never payed too much attention to any of his solos. Man 2000 is cold from front to back!
