Mine says the same thing. Are they the same album?

nearly, except I think The Album are just the tracks from BE2 on original beats with a couple more added in, if I'm not mistaken.

You are mistaken. The Album has 6 tracks from BE2, and 7 'new' tracks. If you've checked out unofficial Royce albums, you may have heard every track.

I stand corrected. I just remember downloading "Give Up Your Guns" and seeing the cover and "Heat to the Streets" and probably assumed the rest. I will 'Complete My Album' right now.

I normally never would either but I got a big bonus check from work and I splurged. Most of them were really cheap anyway. It will be a while before I make any more purchases.

Hey man I can't blame you. Live it up and enjoy this thing called life.

Just copped on Amazon:

Phonte- Charity Starts at Home (I decided to wait on the 9th album for next time, heard negative things about it)

Jay-Z- Original Album Classics (Reasonable Doubt, In My Lifetime & Hard Knock Life all in one for $10. I lost my Reasonable Doubt somewhere (), so I figured I might as well cop this and upgrade my scratched up copies of In My Lifetime & Hard Knock Life. Well worth the price).

John Regan- Sorry I'm Late (I always wanted this album, finally got around to copping it).

Glad you didn't waste your money on that 9th!

Spins:

9th Wonder - The Wonder Years (on Spotify) - not that great, some cool tracks but overall kinda blended together and the rappers on here didnt hold my attention save for a few

Just got in the mail and will be spinning today:

G-Macc - The Opera: Angels and Demons

Currently bumping John Regan 'Sorry I'm Late' on Spotify. Man I can't wait til my copy comes in the mail, I'm really feeling this album.

Finally got thru all these new albums and here are some thoughts.

Evidence-Very good album. Probably not quite as good as "Weatherman LP" but I see myself bumpin this one for a while.

Phonte-This one surprised me a little. Phonte really sounded rejuvenated and the production for the most part is top notch.

J. Cole-Pretty good, still not sure how I feel about it. I need a few more spins.

9th Wonder-The worst of the bunch. Just boring to me. Nothing really grabbed me. I doubt I'll be spinning this one many more times.

Purchases:

J Cole "Cole World- The Sideline Story"


Spins:

Ice Cube "Death Certificate"
Phonte "Charity Starts At Home"
9th Wonder "The Wonder Years"- Could've been better...production better than overall work of the MCs

Anybody listening to Only God Can Judge Me really has no room to talk about Bad Meets Evil being wack...same goes for the world's only U God fan.

<------------- What Jeff said

Jah Nyne - Holdin A Vibe
Dub Vision (Don Carlos's Band) - Counter Attack
I-Wayne - Life Teachings
Black Judah - California Green EP (still playing this non stop for over 3 months, If you like Reggae at all check out the video for Mercy Please w/Warrior King) fuck that, I'll post it, start a little reggae thread and post videos in there from time to time depending on if it gets any hits.

A Guest, Only God Can Judge Me is a good album regardless of how uncool it is to listen to Master P in Iowa.

Spins:
Styles P-Master Of Ceremonies
Geto Boys-Resurrection
Geto Boys-Grip It! On That Other Level
Scarface-The Diary
Scarface-The Fix

Blades, do your research. I LIKE Master P. But Only God Can Judge Me is awful.

After "Only God Can Judge Me", I knew to never buy a Master P CD ever again....lol Once again, I agree with Jeff.

I just preordered Johnny Gill 'Still Winning'.

Yeah I agree Only God Can Judge Me had over 18 trks and only 2-3 were actually good. I knew Master P was on his last leg limpin after that album.

Spins:

Apathy "Honky Kong"-Damn! This is my first solo album from Ap and I know I'm late, but this is fire! Also have "Eastern Philosophy" getting ready to spin today.

J. Live "S.P.T.A."-Halfway thru it and it's def a top 10 album of the year for me.

Evidence "Weatherman LP"
Evidence "Cats & Dogs"
Evidence "Layover Ep"
Cee Lo Green "Perfect Imperfections"

Only God Can Judge Me is in fact booty.

Only God Can Judge Me is a GOOD album. It's got a handful of solid tracks, a bunch of paper thin subject matter but banging beats all the way through. Absolutely the last Master P album worth owning but give me that shit anyday over any Lil Wayne album.

Flesh N Bone- THUGS
The DOC- No One Can Do It Better

Game- RED Album
Jay-Z- In mY Lifetime Vol. 1

Tyler- Goblin

Hey Kev how do you like that Malcolm & Martin? The mixtape they put out last year was pretty dope but the lead single I heard was wack as fuck IMO.

Lyrics- A-
Subject Matter- B
Production- B-
Entertainment- B-
Originality- C+

Just copped Pacewon 'Telepathy'. Currently bumping Pete Rock 'Lost & Found Hip Hop Underground Soul Classics' (Well just INI "Center of Attention", Deda "The Original Baby Pa" is wack). "Center of Attention" is a Tran's classic.

Do you ever give above a C in originality? lol I'll d/l it soon but right now I'm really far behind. Do you know how many beats DJ Revolution does?

Oh yeah. But a C+ is above average originality. Not bad at all but nohing you have not really heard before. For example most Kast albums get a higher score in originality. Das Efx 1st album would be other example.

Oh and I do not know anything about DJ Rev.

That was really what I got from the mixtape, there was no real originality to it, but it was dope for what it was. If you haven't heard it, I suggest checking it out, it's an old school styled mixtape that's actually MIXED and even has random breaks and vocal samples thrown in, very very dope.

Currently bumping J Cole- Cole World: The Sideline Story. Shit is really dope, I can picture myself bumping this one for a minute. I'm anticipating that new Drake & Wale. Hopefully they come through like Cole did.

Nice little oldies Nickatina kick T. Only thing new I've gotten since my last post on here is that BG Knocc Out - Eazy E's Protege. As if most of the people that would check for this needed a reminder of where they'd heard him before in the album title It's a good effort, I'm liking it.

Just got and haven't listened to all in full yet.
