Shit I’ll be editing him out of everything
That quote was from April last year about Ghostface’s many business pursuits.
Today I saw him talking about his pubic hair preference in this Whoo Kid interview from 3 days ago. (Starts at 12:08)…

I think I might have inspired the God.
Sample 420 needed a RZA verse.
I’ve listened to it 14 times now. Actually put it over Rae’s album which I liked a lot.
Can’t even be mad now at it being called Supreme Clientele 2, as it made me pay more critical attention to it than I might have done otherwise.
Guess the name did its job in that respect, and I’ll not be the only one.
Also, I'd rather have one Clyde Smith skit for the sake of old times than five senseless ones.
I take FishScale over this shit as the legitimate follow up to Supreme Clientele.
This feels more like Pretty Toney 2 than SC2, but it’s still good.
Dude puts out a lazy collection of scraps and calls it the sequel to his most famous and revered album to try to get money from his fans, and u expect people to be satisfied with it?
Fuck me. Ghost could put out a statement saying he fucking hates his fans and they're a pack out of sorry simps and cucks, and they'd still defend him.
It's fucking crazy how he never gets held accountable for his shit.
[Verse 3: Superb]
One of the illest since Magic Johnson, no disrespect
"Superb like Bird and Magic" is ghost making a reference to Superb?
So that was a disappointment.
On no level is this a great album that people will regularly play years from now. Fuck that shit.
Yes, I had hope for this being something good. But this sounded like a cheap fucking mixtape that you'd get for free in 2003 with ordering an album on hiphopsite.com. Shame on me for giving Ghost some sort of credit after years of disappointing releases. (I have to say, I did enjoy 12RTD & Sour Soul. The production on those records is solid.)
Like some already mentioned, in a unique feat, Ghost as a writer has devolved. This is some of the most uninteresting and uninspired lines & verses I have heard in some time. The amount of bitches on his dick that gets thrown around and hammers he has makes it all so fucking cringe. It is as if we are listening to that one creepy uncle that tries his hardest to be a gangster and pimp, while we all know he has not gotten laid since the 80's, nor gotten into a real fight. All the while he neglecting his actual kids, and clearly has issues trying to grow up.
Next to that, you got his voice. A review of Emperors Clothes addressed it best when they mentioned you can clearly hear the years of touring have done him no favors. On this mixtape it is even more apparent with the combination of poor mixing and mastering. Instead of complaining about everything, and taking every schtick Wiggs throws at him, he should have been living sober and working on vocal lessons. Maybe even go out side of his comfort zone to get some material to write about.
When I first saw the tracklist, I had to double check if this was real. It looked like somebody uploaded a draft of working titles. Just must be kidding me if you want to pass this off for an album. Lazy & uninspired. 4th Disciple is a poor attempt at the recreation of Impossible and should have stayed in the vault untill it was fleshed out as a song. The facts that it was not even properly titles speaks volumes towards the quality of the whole things, as well as the respect towards the listener.
The skits are peak end of 90's: bloated and unwanted cringe. from the intro of Redman that feels completely out of place on an album. But would make sense on the mixtape of an unknown DJ circa 2003. The pause thing really takes the crown, because everybody here knows it is not satire. Ghost is not making fun of himself. Though that would explain a lot with this release.
The whole thing feels like the result of an AI attempt at recreating Supreme Clientele without understanding what makes it good or why it resonated.
Over and over Ghost has stated that he does not like working with deadlines. If this is the result, as a label and a fan, I would not give him any money untill there were some proper milestones set. It's like you are at a restaurant, the chef will prepare some marvellous shit to make your mouth water. You wait for 15 years, and you got served a fucking stale ass one sloppy pickle flat as hamburger. And some of y'all are swallowing that with pride? Nah chief. He named this shit completely consciously SUPREME CLIENTELE 2. I am not going to a movie called GOODFELLAS 2, and expect to see a crappy version of Boondock Saints. I expect something that lives up to that name.
We can divulge into features and producers and more. But it is pointless. Ghost came to bat and striked out looking. He is an old head stuck in arrested development looking for an golden age that is long gone and passed by. Instead of adapting, he is grasping to the few thinsg he knows from that era. Reusing them over and over for the passed 25 years, untill there is almost nothing left. And breaking himself in the process with that because he refuses to adapt. If anything, this mixtape is showcasing that struggle of Ghost.
At this point I am just completely flabbergasted as to how Kendrick got that one ghost verse out of him.
