anyway, merged

[Ghost In The 'Lac]

what about method man and Gza?

yeah they are both on it.

Undoubted highlight so far is "Underwater". Oh my god. This is classic Ghostface. CLASSIC. Its not a new Doom beat, but they added stuff to it, and its just Ghostface describing his journey underwater, what he sees and meets, its

Every track has a place on here and apart from what they did to Barber Shop and the lack of Charlie Brown, I'm happy with it. R.A.G.U. is still Classic Ghost/Rae, The Champ sounds better than ever, more horns like the first but no chipmunk "fever" stuff. Momma is probably my favourite "soft/r&b" track Ghost has done though it is slightly over produced.

at the store, a peer2peer program, or yahoo

Cappa comes back strong on "jellyfish"(another doom beat). And Trife and Ghost murder the rainblood beat (or known as clipse of doom on fishscale)

But honestly i dont wanna speak 2 soon, but on 1st listen

this is the return of Tony Starks! Fuck Pretty Toney!

ghostlaced ur killin me man

[Ghost In The 'Lac]

barbershop suffers without the 2nd verse. that verse wouldda been one of my favorite i think.

High points-
Shakey Dog - one of the best beats Ghost has spit on since SC. It sounds alot like SC actually.

The Champ. Sounds alot, alot better than the previous version floatin around. Now its one of th best on the lp.

Underwater (crazy kinda like the Forest), Clipse of Doom (ghost hyper style again, Trife gets better everytime i hear him)

The J Dilla tracks ("HI" and "one for ghost" from donuts) are perfect

The whole clan sounds on point (especially Meth) on 9 milli bros.

The whole album (apart from the last 2 tracks) has a similar feel to it, like SC. That was missing in BPW and TPTA.

The skits bring back Ironman and SC style.

In fact all of it apart from what i will say below. Easily the best competitor to SC.

Bad Points -

Momma - lucky its @ the end so i dont have to skip it
Barbershop best verse taken out
Three brick (B.IG track) i dont know why it is here, doesnt fit, but its at the end so it dont matter.
No charlie brown.
Oh and i thought the 9Milli Bros beat was good for RZA, but nope he aint there.
Some tracks are too short like Underwater, and Beauty Jackson

Definitely going to replace the retail Barber Shop with the one from the advance and put in the full CDQ Charlie Brown (when we get it) on my mp3 player.

One thing I am surprised is that Cappa is one 3 songs. 2 months back i would of never imagined that. But hes good on all of em, his Jellyfish verse is like Camay all over again.

Yer, I love his verse on Dogs of War, never expected he'd come back like that (those last three words were purely coincidental).

Speaking of Dogs of War, that beat is growing on me, I always loved the vocal sample, but now, the drum change up during Rae's verse makes that song.

[Ghost In The 'Lac]

i think the reason defjam took out that barbershop verse is cuz Ghost calls the cops pigs. I honestly think thats the reason. they are a corporation now, they get worried about things like that.

"ayo im lost underwater/i see a pink door with a crystal handle/so i keep swimming...."

[Wzarecta]

Only just been able to hear the bass line on The Champ, that track is awesome now.

[Funkadelic Funkmasta]
