Over-production ruined that album

Less Is More for me

IMO 'Ye shoulda SOLELY been behind the boards/production tip on the entire album

How the fuck do you overproduced a album? You mad they didn't do some played out 1994 boom bap shit with Premo. Dr. Dre produces layered music his whole career and i have never heard anyone say he overproduces, it's like ya'll looking for shit to nitpick.

The production on the album was flawless to me, the album was made with STADIUM PERFOMANCE in mind. I guarantee if you went to the Watch the Throne tour you wouldn't say it' overproduced. The cd was made for 20k people, not a 2k club venue.

So was MBDTF... it was made for a "stadium performance"

Which song on WTT is even as good as 'All Of The Lights'?

I don't know. I'm surprised he's been off G.O.O.D. cause he and Kanye built that label. But, if he's still working with them, it's cool.

Based off "Ghetto Dreams", this potential album who at least garner my attention. Nas hold the top spot for my most respected artists, and Commen clocks in #4, so I'd definitely be checking for it.

I swear theres nothing worse than a "when its convenient" nigga. Now being youre a Nas fan if I said the nigga hasnt gone platinum in 8 years, sales wouldnt matter. Shit never fails with some of you.

I dont want to hear a Nas and Common album i barely want to hear Nas, the things is you people praise mediocrity waaaay too much. The collabo 'ghetto dreams' was nothing of note and nor has anything nas has done since his HHID.

to be honest i have not liked a nas verse since 'surviving the times', dude cant flow anymore and when he wants to get all "lyrical" he just rambles with no suave debonair cool boy 95 era shit, it sounds ugly and Common been the better rapper since the BE album.

the Nas joints this year and the Amy Wineshouse smoke track, are sooo weak but if you read the comments hear you'd think you just heard 'if i ruled the world ft. lauryn' people ask for more, while your busy appluading nas for doing half ass bullshit ..... Kanye and Jay with less music spirit and talent are able to sell and get coverage because they ENTERTAIN and know what a GOOD BEAT is suppose to sound like (even though WTT dont have much)

Kanye has not made a good beat since 'toast', which Cam and Jimmy totally ripped and flipped showing you hiphop is about rap.

Jay aint done much last verse i liked was on 'EMSOM' and Common is a non factor in things becaause his not a go to artist.

Nas/Common does not sound appealing, and Damien Marley was the only good thing on Distant Relatives.

To be honest i listen to old shit but i will listen to all the old rappers doing it today at least once, i listen to all Nas shit (its just wack) same with Jay,Kanye,Prodigy,Cam.

To be totally honest i hope the new dudes coming up move into some new shit, we done had jazz,soul,Rnb,Funk,etc ......... hiphop aint moving forward its still nicer than other shit (all genres arent musically developing) I want some electric boogaloo or some folk shit.

Bukka White - Parchman Farm ........ bruce springsteen,paul simon, king floyd, etc.

Music is terrible now, at least movies is making a come back because movies even fell off at one time.

Man I enjoyed Watch the Throne for what it was- two talented, rich, black enterpeneurs/rappers making a little statement about being rich and black in capitalist, dog-eat-dog, racist america over dramatic, big beats. I think they pulled it off for the most part.

And I enjoyed Distant Relatives even more- two gifted, conscious artists making a statement about being rich and black spiritually in the world over dope, beats. Again they pulled it off considering the difficulty of not sounding too preachy and effortless merging both genres and styles.

I'm sure I'll enjoy a Common/Nas album as well as long as it is well produced, has substance and depth and just dope rhymes. Simple.
