http://wuforever.com/gallery/albums/...iddat_101b.jpg
MASTA KILLA - NO SAID DATE ( 2 CD ) 2004 NATURE SOUNDS / LITTLE SHOES MUSIC .
CD ONE : NO SAID DATE CD .
Track 1 : Born Chamber - Pretty dope relevant intro in regard to the current state of the clan !!
Track 2 : Grab the Mic - Nice chilled out joint to set things off 4/5
Track 3 : No Said Date - Ill flow by M.K but no offence imo not really feeling the RZA beat that much so demotes song from 4/5 to 3/5
Track 4 : Last Drink - Solid track with nice beat courtesy of Math and nice flow by M.K 4/5
Track 5 : Love Spell - Probably a nice song if your into this thing but not to my own personal taste ; one of only tracks i skip so a personal 2/5
Track 6 : The Future / Interlude - Next generation Wu !! PEACE
Track 7 : D.T.D - Nice party song , nice contributions from Ghost and Rae , imo one of dopest tracks on album 5/5
Track 8 : Whatever - Another solid Allah Mathematics joint , nice verses from Street and Prodigal Sunn 4/5
Track 9 : Secret Rivals - Average song but fucking dope verse from Killah Priest and Meth drops an okay verse 3/5
Track 10 : Skitt - Nice 36 Chamberish Kung Fu skit , takin' it back ya heard!!
Track 11 : Digi Warfare - Unfortunately not feeling this Choco beat at all and one of the other tracks i occasionally skip 2/5
Track 12 : Old Man - Yeah ODB - R.I.P - and RZA rock this shit , fucking insane RZA beat , nuff said 5/5
Track 13 : Queen - The only other track thats not exactly to my personal liking but still listenable due to M.K's flow so 3/5
Track 14 : School - Dope intro on this song and nice beat switch up from RZA for his verse and both him and M.K proceed to drop some knowledge about the school systems many shortcomings , also has a segment with Tu Pac big upping the Wu at end of track - 4/5
Track 15 : Silverbacks - My personal favourite on this album , lovely True Master beat with dope verses from Deck and GZA 5/5
Track 16 : Masta Killa - Nice way to close up the album , heavily oriental beat and solid verses from M.K 4/5
CD TWO : BONUS DVD
Features interviews , performances , behind the scenes footage and over 20 minutes of live CD quality audio from Masta Killa .

Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
Really good cd but it's a little bit like LOTLS, Beneath the surface because there are many dope tracks, but put in together, they not form a really good combination, so i don't like listen to those albums in entire like i do for Liquid swords, ironman, or OBFCL...

Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
When I first listened to it I was shit ! we got a jewel here ! but now, months after, Im pretty bored of that album . Actually when I like an album the first time I listen to it that's not a good sign ...

Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date

peace

Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
wow dude gave love spell the worst rating ?? shit is the best song on there imo..ghosts part on dtd is the best on the whole album imo - that last track is flames too also silverbacks and track 8
-
Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
i agree with u on every track except Queen. i thought that song was a banger.
-
Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
i would of given secret rivals 5 meth kills it and i think outshines killah priest and masta killah.Also queen and school should have got 5
-
Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
I think that first Masta's solo is classical wu banga! Dope beats sound "back to the times of 36 chambers" and mastas flow isnt bad like many hip-hop fans think. Lyrics make me think from time to time. So album has gone right at all
-
Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
The beats were solid, but to be honest, Masta Killa can be boring as a rapper. There were a few tracks where he was alright, but most of it seemed average. Still a nice album, 7.5/10, best tracks to me are Queen, Digi Warfare and Masta Killa.
-
Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
grab the mic - 4.5/5... despite having a reused verse...
no said date - 3.5/5... nice, but doesn't have the impact of other songs...
last drink - 4/5... beat reminds me of heaterz for some reason... don't know why...
love spell - 3/5... seems a bit out of place
dtd - 3/5... sounds more like a pretty tony track...
whatever - 4/5... great beat, great verses...
secret rivals - 4/5... would have been higher if not for priest saying 'i'm like this, i'm like that'... has been hanging out with canibus too much...
digi warfare - 3.5/5... good but is missing something to make it great...
old man - 3.5/5... repetitive beat... good idea to incorporate the famous quote from the show though...
queen - 4/5... love the beat...
school - 4/5... nice change up...
silver backs 5/5... one of the best tracks i've heard in a long while...
masta killah - 5/5... ditto silverbacks

Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
01 : Born Chamber
02 : Grab the Mic - Great beat, helluva nice flow by the Masta. I love it when he says "P.Diddy I know you dancin'!" 4/5
03 : No Said Date - Great production by the RZA although the sample has been used before. Great song tho. 4/5
04 : Last Drink - The beat is to monotone and gets played out after a while. Too bad because MK spits some nice shit. 3/5
05 : Love Spell - At first I didn't like it, but it's a great song. I like it. 4/5
06 : The Future / Interlude - The beat is bananas! Wish he would've used it.
07 : D.T.D - Who the hell said this is a party song? This is a Wu-banger. Ghost face got the best verse. 4/5
08 : Whatever - Same problem as with Last Drink. But Prodigal Sunn spits a real nice verse on this one. 3/5
09 : Secret Rivals - Weakest beat of this album. Method Man got the best verse on this track, but I always skip it tho. 2/5
10 : Skit
11 : Digi Warfare - Another song I always skip, it's not bad at all but just not my cup of tea. LOL @ U-God's "guestappearance". 2/5
12 : Old Man - I LOVE the intro by ODB always cracks up a smile on me. We sure miss him. Great song. 4.5/5
13 : Queen - One of my fav. songs of this album. I LOVE when Allah Real sings "Didn't I blow your miiiiind?". Great beat, real nice verses by MK and a dope guestappearance by Allah Real. 5/5
14 : School - The intro suits the song perfectly. GREAT production by The RZA, listen to the drums and especially to the snare on the first beat. As much as I love MK's verses on this track, RZA steals the show both with the rap and the beat(s). 5/5
15 : Silverbacks - Another gem by MK with Wu-guests. GZA drops a dope ass verse on it. Hell, everyone spits flame over this monumental beat. 5/5
16 : Masta Killa - I love the lyrics on this song. The beat is nice too. 4/5
Overall: 4/5
A real solid 4 out 5. But as much as I love this album it lacked replay value. After a month it just faded away and now a days I barely listen to it. I was going through some bullshit by the time it was released and listening to this album reminds me of that period of time. Though I can't stop praising MK for his lyrics on this album. He really did his thing on this one. I can't wait for the next one, just don't take another 10 years!

Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
I thought it was a really good debut album. Not a classic IMO but a very good album. I think this is the start of something good
-
Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date
im trying to justify to myself why anyone would call any of Masta Killas work wack, if anything his solo album is the 3rd best wu solo release (gza liquid words, Raekwon only for cubin linx) his rhymin styles hell different to anyone else out there and was worth every cent of the 30 bucks i paid (aussie money) - 9 OUTTA 10

Re: Masta Killa - No Said Date

This CD is great! It could have been longer, but the song with meth sucked!!! The flows were good, but the beat was pure GARBAGE!!! But overall a pretty solid album!
-
Masta Killa is definetely underrated. I liked this album. I wouldn't call it a classic unless I still love it years from now, but after having it for a little while, I still enjoy listening to it. 8/10

Great album. It was good to hear some real hiphop from the clan in 2004. Since the style kind of died out it seems. Masta Killa gots nice beats on this album, good production and great lyrics. A big step up. I liked every track on the album alot.

2.Grab The Microphone - Chill beat and great lyrics. (4/5)
3.No Said Date - Love the beat (5/5)
4.Last Drink - Decent beat, and lyrics were straight (3.5/5)
5.Love Spell - Like the vibe and lyrics, good stuff. (4/5)
6.The Future - Awesome track (5/5)
7.D.T.D - Love the beat and lyrics (5/5)
8.Whatever - My fav song, ill beat/lyrics (5.5/5)
9.Secret Rivals - Very ill beat! Love it (5/5)
10.Skit - No rating
11.Digi Warfare - Great vibe (5/5)
12.Old Man - Love it, awesome beat and ODB/RZA - (5/5)
13.Queen - Great lyrics (5/5)
14.School - Good track (5/5)
15.Silverbacks - Good appearances (5/5)
16.Masta Killa - Perfect (5/5)
Overall this album gets a 5/5 from me, nothing seems wrong. Good production and good lyrics.
