Have any of you heard that Lil B "I'm Gay"? I was going to stay far far far away from his music but now looking at the cover and the trklisting he seems to be trying to spit about something deep and intellingent.

Same here. With the exception of his XXL Freshmen freestyle, everything I have heard from him was wack as hell, but since he gave it away for free I DLed it. The subject matter is generally respectable, the production is incredible (worth listening to for it), but lyrically, he is... inconsistent... at best, and that's being kind. Worth a listen, especially if you're going into it with low expectations.

Thanks. You got a link?

if you still need it, I PM'd you a link

Yeah I still needed it, thanks. I'm playing it now.

How do you think the BSBD stacks against the 9th Wonder?

That Blue Sky Black Death joint is very dope, I like the 9th production a little bit better but I do like the BSBD alot....they also have some very dope production...and Jean Grae is a damn beast....

'Strikes' and 'Threats' are two of my favorite BSBD tracks. I don't know how into Sunz of Man you are, but the album they did with Hell Razah is quite amazing.

Yeah the Hell Razah is dope. My favorite BSBD is A Heap Of Broken Images though. I really like both discs.

the Hell Razah one is my favorite, a Heap is behind that

The only BSBD album I've heard is the one with Holocaust, and it's really dope.

Razah's Ladder is the best BSBD album I've heard.

The Trae was a bit disappointing. It's still good, but too many features that were out of his comfort zone. There were 2 Rick Ross features, 2 Jada features, a Wyclef feature, a Wiz Khalifa feature, a Shawty Lo feature, a Yo Gotti feature, A game feature, and a Lupe feature. Some of them worked and some didn't. I expected a little more from Trae. I liked the S.L.A.B. album though. Just some underground Houston ish with some dope features from Bun B, and Z-Ro. Neighborhood Superstar 3 was nice, but if you're a fan of Messy, you will like it even more. He just doesn't do a lot for me. I just peeped it for Philthy.
