^^ yeah same for me, i've listened to the album front-to-back 3 times since yesterday and it definitely sounds even better now. the only minus is that the last 7 tracks, which are all good/dope in their own right, has a very similair sound to eachother. he should have thrown in a smoother track like "Profits of Man" or something like that in the middle of those. still great fucking album!

r.i.p. Johan D, Kaddu, Ricke a.k.a. "Slick Rick" and the rest of the fallen soldiers - you'll never be forgotten!
The last verse of "Vintage" is GOLDEN
yeah totally rightOriginally Posted by claaa7
I have to order my copy online (the benefits of being in Australia!).
But I'd have to say that most posts sound pretty positive.
I think those that are downloading the album need to get and BUY a copy. Priest is one of the strongest lyricists ever. To the person that said he is a bit "preachy" what would you expect from someone with Priest in their name and spirituality as their forte?
I'll post a review when my copy arrives.
i'm gonna get killed for this......i listened to it once all the way through so far.......i didnt really like it! there's only like 3 tracks that i really really liked. a bunch of the beats sound sooooo similar.......as well as the lyrical material.
but of course, i'll keep trying. i love KP!
and he is NOT calling snoop & jigga a "coon" on 'vintage'!
This album sealed Killah Priest on top of my GOAT list *bumps The Beloved (The Messenger)* *spits: the heroin spoon fall in the flame, right before it disolves in the vein...* dayum. Im lovin' this album, cant be compared to The Offering, pretty different feel.
this album is dope i don't se why so many press outlets hate it maybe because they loe the dumb is smart concept better
if KP started a new dance craze in his 'for tomarrow' video, than this album would have already gone atleast gold..
it really is a shame that the original true meaning behind real hip-hop, the lyrics, means jack shit these days
it sounds like he is though.... can u prove he isnt??
But that is one of the things that is great about Priest. For Tomorrow is a real clip that has nothing to do with marketing at all. No imagery, no dancing, just what is real.
I loved the Blackstar definition film clip for its simplicity and because it is representative of the lyrics. For Tomorrow sticks to a similar foundation.

He clearly says "jigga to snoop"
So who do he call a coon then?
I just copped the album 2 day, first track sounds wack, full review next thursday....
Only a few years ago Hip Hop purists may have felt superior listening to hard core while their less enlightened companions snacked on commercial rap. As Shaolin research began to point out the overwhelming benefits of raw production, true hip hop enthusiasts started turning back to traditional styles. Wu-Tang in particular, has been shown to myriad beneficial effects, from warding off ignorance and poverty to reducing the risk of incarceration and death.
Its an okay album... fell off big time compared to the Offering... These beats suck...sorry to say it like that but its true. Beat makers from Wu-Corp have better beats than these. Whre in the wolrd was GodWrath when he needed them...maybe Blue Sky Black Death.
I gave it a 3/5 because atleast Priest got busy on the mic.
This album sucks shit. Sounds like throwaway Offering tracks. Beat selection is yet again suspect for KP.
^^totally disagree with this statement yes it's different the offering but it dosent' mean it's bad
