Who's buying what??

I was told Face got pushed back to the 11th.

But i'll more than likely scoop up Bone and Ball & G. thats it off that list.

I would not call that a pretty big day.. just a lot of small times... nothing on the list for me

What! Not even Ball & G? And thought you were a big Bone fan?

yea the two (three) Kev mentioned are what im checking for most

the Ayatollah looks interesting also

The last Ball and G album was awful and I am not wasting my money on this one unless I hear good things.

By all accounts Bone is going to be a big disappointment as well.

Bone and 8ball & MJG

Definite purchase: Bone Thugs

Has me intrigued:

8 Ball & MJG
Blacastan
Roc Marciano
Panacea
Scarface
Sapient & Ethic

Purchase: Cosmogramma

Possible: Panacea, Bone.

Flying Lotus and Ayatollah, but Ball and MJG?! IMO, those guys haven't put out a good album in 10 years. They fell off when they got with Puff. Nuff said.

Living Legends was dope.

Plus they dropped some dope albums in the early 2000s
solos too... fool...

Wait, I thought YOU were the one hating first...

And, for the record, the Bone Thugs record isn't going to be WACK, per se, but again it's not what I want out of a Bone Thugs album. That said, I'm still going to buy it because in all honesty I could use some semi-inspirational music in my life right now.

Keep Ya Head up N3ro - if the album is inspirational I will cop it - but if it is just pop I won't - let me know once/if it already leaks/leaked.

I mean, all the people that were at the Think Tanks have had the OG versions of these songs for months, which is why they're so pissed off it's been delayed almost a full year. And the consensus is more that the material isn't bad, it's just all done in a similar vein instead of being more balanced like previous bone releases. Also, some people don't care for Bone's new "Universe" style, which is kinda a hate it or love it thing.

If you don't mind listening to other genres, I find Pelican's The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw to be pretty motivational/inspirational. It's completely instrumental so you don't have to worry about white people singing.

Thanks Halfy...what kind of music is it?

Rock-ish, mixes a bunch of different styles. The album starts out with an epic feel and then ends with some contemplative tracks. Here, I'll let you decide:
