s.c 2
fishscale 3

a few of the tracks are amazing.. too many tracks that are designed for cross over appeal,
ras kass's revenge of the spit.. mixtape
kills this album :(
the 3 bricks track is dope and also the momma ft megan rochell track is dope too
Kilos and Clipse of Doom are FAR from wack... I really can't understand how many of you don't like Kilos... That track is so gutter..Quote:

Kilos is decent... alright beat and dope lyrics.. i never skip it. This is album is a 9/10 to me. If they removed that 3 bricks track then it would have been 9.5.
I like all the tracks... even Back Like That and Momma.
Yo First Of All U Don't Know Hiphop, And I Don't Know How U Even Became A Critic. Lets Go Through Fishscale. The Purest Hiphop Album To Date. Name One Hiphop Artist That Has A Album That Can Top This. Tracks Like Shakey Dog And Columbus Exchange, The Champ, Kilo, Ragu, Jelly Fish Are All Bangers. Even Humourous Joints Like Barbershop Is Something That Any Man Can Relate To. Yeah Ghost Doesn't Get The Sales He Deserve But I Find It Hard To Understand How Ironman And Supreme Clientele Go Gold And Bullet Proof Wallets And The Pretty Toney Album Didn't Even Come Close. True Ghost Fans Where U At ? Wheres The Love? The Album Is Great One One Of The Best Albums Ever In My Eyes. Respect Music Respect The Legend Ghostface Killah. Peace
U Crazy That's Hiphop At It's Best Kilo Is Tough. Ghostface Is The Best Thing Since Peanut Butter And Jelly And I Know U Can Relate So Don't Front. U Frontin On Hiphop Pure Music Not That Weak Commercial Crap Like Downsouth Music. Ghost Is Newyork King. No Disrespect To D-block And Dipset But Ghost Is The King.
Is there really any need to tell people that don't have the same opinion as you that they don't know hip hop? Sorry but thats straight up bullshit.Quote:

02. Shakey Dog 5/5 - Nice lil beat, dope storytelling from Ghost
03. Kilo (Feat. Raekwon) 4.5/5 - Sick beat, nice to hear Ghost and Rae together again
04. The Champ 4:09 5/5 - In contention for my favorite track on the album. ill lines from Ghost and the beat is CRAZY.
05. Major Operation (Skit) - One sentence long...lol nothin special.
06. 9 Milli Bros. (Feat. Wu-Tang Clan) 5/5 - I hear niggas hatin on this song but I dunno I like it. The beat is dope and every general comes correct on this IMO.
07. Beauty Jackson 5/5 - Chill ass beat, lovin that shit nice short story from Ghost too. 5/5 for that -10/5 for Ghost not makin this longer!
08. Heart Street Directions (Skit) - LOL all I gotta say 5/5
09. Columbus Exchange (Skit)/Crack Spot 5/5 - Really smooth beat, nice lyrics keepin with the whole Cocaine trafficing theme on the album.
10. R.A.G.U. (Feat. Raekwon) 5/5 - Again a dope beat, can't go wrong with the Chef and Toney.
11. Bad Mouth Kid (Skit) - again all I can say is LOL 5/5
12. Whip You With A Strap 5/5 - definitely some heartfelt lyrics from Ghost on this one, nice sample on the beat as well.
13. Back Like That (Feat. Ne-Yo) 4/5 - I know all the the niggas and thugs gon hate on this cause it's not all grimey n shit but I dig it, Ghost knows how to do a love song, nice chill beat.
14. Be Easy (Feat. Trife) 4/5 - Like the lyrics, Trife comes correct but damn Pete Rock? Maybe his reputation precedes him for this track but I know he can cook up somethin better than this. Still a pretty good track.
15. Clipse Of Doom (Feat. Trife) 3.5/5 - Not a bad track, nice lyrics, Ghost got a nice verse but ain't so crazy about the sample used.
16. Jellyfish (Feat. Cappadonna, Shawn Wigs & Trife) 5/5 - Kinda soulful sounding reminds me of Pretty Toney real chill and you got Ghost singing lol so it's gotta be good
17. Dogs Of War (Feat. Raekwon, Trife, Cappadonna & Sun God) 4.5/5 - Nice beat, that sample is ill and Sun God comes hard on this shit.
18. Barbershop 5/5 - Like Beauty Jackson another crazy ass chilled out beat that just begs to be made into a full fledged song. A single one minute verse don't do this beat justice.
19. Ms. Sweetwater (Skit) - Another 1-2 sentence skit...
20. Big Girl 5/5 - Sounds like that Pretty Toney ish. Like some of the other soul shit Ghost does alotta niggas prolly gonna hate but I love when he does this kinda shit. Crazy ass laid back beat with another one of those dope samples (reminds me of Holla) one of my favorites.
21. Underwater 5/5 - This is the kinda song that reminds me why Ghost is one of my favorite emcees of all time. Crazy sampled beat real unique with water and ocean sounds in the background. Trippy ass story about Ghost getting lost underwater and then meetin mermaids and seeing Noah's Arc.
22. The Ironman Takeover (Skit) - 5 seconds long....
23. Momma (Feat. Megan Rochell) 3.5/5 - Meh...I don't really like the hook, that singer is madd generic and doesn't really do anything for the track but when Ghost is on with his verses it's not bad.
24. Three Bricks (Feat. Notorious B.I.G. & Raekwon) 2/5 - Dunno kinda sounds outta place. Don't like the beat and I never been into B.I.G. that much.
Overall a crazy album from Ghost IMO. I'd rank this above Pretty Toney and Wallets but below Ironman and Supreme Clientele. Nice beats and I like that Ghost really did his own thing on this more so than Pretty Toney with the tracks and the guest apperances n shit. Plus he got alotta different styles on this that could fit on all of his albums so it makes it a interesting listen all the way through.
9/10
straight burner.....best hip hop record of 2006......like you can play this album the whole way through.......has a great flow like all classic wu tang records.......best WU TANG Record since SUPREME CLIENTELE
.....I think this album is right up there with IRONMAN and SUPREME CLIENTELE.......like 100x better than PRETTY TONY and BULLETPROOF WALLETS......
props to GHOST
Good album - 8.5/10
round to 9/10 (integer wise :) )
All songs are alright, but Standouts are rare
among them
R.A.G.U, UnderWater, Momma, Strap
rest are almost filler imo
Beats are good but Personally I hate 9 Milli Bros Beat and the song over all. Seems like all the members are trying to catch up to the beat.
count how many times you've said that in this thread.Quote:

the champ alone makes this album ill
i mean ghost sounds fuckin hungry on there..aggresive...like a beast...thats how ghost should do it....and that beat is classic no doubt..best wu song in yeeeeeeeeears
i think this album is a little overrated. i love ghost and fishscale is dope but far from a classic as many guys said. so many skit and the nicest songs are too short. clipse of doom and 3 bricks are shit comparing to the rest.
but anyway there are some doppe shit like shakey dog, barbershop, beauty jackson etc... but the wu track is disapointing i know it's cool to listen the all wu but try to be wise and you can notice that they can do better than that. and according to me grandmasters is better than supreme clientele and fishscale..
clipse of doom is so fuckin ill. i don't understand these people hatin on it.Quote:
