Kool G Rap

G Rap needs dope production in order to make a hot album, something he hasn't really had post-Polo.

Did you hear Half A Klip?

Half A Klip was that good man IMO. He sounded real lazy on that joint.

^^ It was indeed that good and he sounded real lazy...just how you fools like your rap albums

I meant to say it wasn't that good lol!

I'll always be interested in KGR dropping an album, because I don't think he's ever disappointed as an mc, but sometimes the overall product is lacking. IMO that's a rare feat for some one two decades deep in the game.

i agree, but i havent heard Half a Klip aside from a few tracks, his 3 post-Polo full lenghts (4,5,6, Giancana Story, and Roots of Evil) are extremely dope to me. KGR is still in top form on those albums and IMO hes one of the few who hasnt really lost a step as an mc at all

4,5,6 is borderline classic, and I've always liked Roots Of Evil and Gianciana Story, very good albums.

Am I misunderstanding that Rick Ross is going to produce this album? I certainly hope I've got that wrong...

Rick Ross can pick beats, so if he's exec producing it, I don't have any problem.

G Rap over Rick Ross production? Not sure what to say about that.

You guys act like an east coast rapper has never rapped over southern beats. Jay-Z's done it and sounded fine, so I have full confidence G Rap can do fine over any beats as long as it's dope.

That was my first reaction MRP, lol. I have no problem with the production.

Fair enough, it did seem like you were saying it was gonna be weak with the "not sure what to say about that" comment.

Glad I was able to clarify things.

He doesn't produce, I believe there's speculation that KGR signed to his label. Not sure where it's coming from, but I read some people saying similar stuff on another forum.

Wayne did you check out the Awesome Dre album?

Not yet. I'll be getting to it soon.

I think Alchemist would be the perfect producer for G Rap.

I wouldn't mind Cool & Dre doing a few tracks for G Rap, but keep Officer Ricky out of it because you know he wouldn't produce without wanting to jump on a track,

As long as the record's good, I don't see why you care who puts it out.

Not trying to contradict what I said earlier regarding the production, but regarding Rick Ross, I cosign KJ.

Awesome Dre has a new album? Is it good?

Yeah, I agree, his post-Polo material just doesn't really stand up to scrutiny. Not that he hasn't had quality songs, but it's just been very inconsistent, and I think a lot of that does come down to the producers he's worked with.

I haven't checked it out yet, but what Linker sent me is from 88.

Yeah. It's You Can't Hold Me Back. He has a new one in the works though.
