The fact that it was supposed to be a double disc with More Fish make it an incredible project.

    Idk why lables are so stupid. A double disc counts as two sales, and boosts the artists clout for the next album. They also lock the artist in for more content since it contractually counts as 1 album. Why the label would get in the way and make a double disc a single album is beyond me but it's very clear that the music industry is run by raccoons that don't understand basic business.


    hahaha, this fool just said that he used to run trains, but if he went after Dirt he'd chill and get brains hahahahah

    More fish was just leftovers.Fishscale was never meant to be a double album.

    I could be wrong but I thought that some of the songs that ended up on More Fish had not gotten sample clearance for Fishscale earlier on.

    Very different albums. Apollo Kids is dope but its not anything new or different. 12 Reasons is a totally different sound, great production but Ghosts rapping is lame as fuck. Really drags it down and coz of it I never really listen to it.

    Only issue I have with Apollo Kids really is the sound. Apart from that very solid album. But not as good as Big Doe Rehab which I still love. What a great album.

    This thread has got me checking out old Ghostface albums.

    Did Claaa7 ever did a Fishscale / More Fish comp?

    Both. Although 12RTD won't be replayed over and over it's still great but they're both different from each other so you can't really say one or the other.

    Get Apollo Kids. 12RTD was 1 of the most overrated albums that year (2013). Also what's wrong with the AK cover? I like that cover.

    I dl'ed this album n it's pretty decent. I enjoyed it enough. Lolz @ these dudes only needing to write a few bars n then getting 20 other guys to fill out the rest of 'their album'. No wonder he puts out a new album every week.

    Lolz @ there being some guy trying to b lord superb on that handcuffing hoes jam.

    But yeah, cool album. I'll grab 12 reasons some thyme too. Gotta get the new math thing next thyme I actually remember to dl something when my laptop is on.

    i need to give this a better listen because ima be honest i skipped it because i thought it was more like a mixtape due to all the features. with that said i only really checked purified thoughts, trouble makers and ghetto which are all top tier modern day wu tracks.

    ghetto features my favorite combo of wu members, ghost, ugod, rae and cap slang the hardest and i love when they get together.
