I'll check it out. I'm not a big fan of early Z-Ro from the little I have heard. I don't like his fast rap style much on a consistant basis. And you know how I feel about Trae. Don't know much about Dougie D if thats the other rapper. I like this Jay album but it is not a big fav of mine. Maybe Rise would win me over. I'll peep the samples to see if I want to even pursue it more.

oh i forgot you didnt like Trae much. From the Z-Ro stuff I've heard i like Rise and Z-Ro vs the World more than Let the Truth Be Told but all are good

You didn't like Blueprint or Black Album? Both of those are easily better than Vol 3. I'd put American Gangster over it too.

I like Blueprint and the Black Album but Vol 3 is my favorite...on most days.

Reasonable Doubt is my fav Jigga album easily. Vol 3 ranks somewhere in the middle of my Hov rankings.

Jay by default

don't care for Jay never heard of G-Maab. no vote

Blueprint and Black Album are just whatever to me. They feel overproduced and somewhat generic, not to trash him but he tries too hard lyrically sometimes on these albums. He feels like a comedian laughing at his own jokes, or he's being his own hype man for every punchline.

Decided to check that Guerilla Maab out yesterday...

I'm feeling it... but will not vote since I have not heard enough of it...


I'll be buying myself a copy of it for sure... also... never knew I had their

Resurrected Cd in my collection...(won it in a big lot)... got it playing in my car right now...

It's got a few jams I like... but I'm liking this "Rise" album much more...
