It's possible, like, say if you come into a thread about listening to albums and then get visually uncomfortable at one of the mentioned albums.

for example;

The f---s wrong with MOP?

Yeah, because I was expecting to be blown away since he always criticizes my music taste. I was shocked to see the first entry is an album from some C-Listers that I used to listen to as a junior in high school.

alright, let's get this going for real.

album #2:


The Clipse & The Re-Up g---, We Got It 4 Cheap, Vol. 2 (2005)
the clipse were responsible for a sea change in critical and popular attitudes toward rap in the mid-2000s. there were residual, crudely-drawn party lines from the so-called "mainstream-underground" wars, but def jux was no longer a key player, nor was rawkus the same. (predominately white) rap fans who had listened exclusively to aesop rock claimed they now listened exclusively to coke rap. what's impressive is that the clipse were able to be this sort of touchstone while in the midst of one of the worst label purgatories of the decade. the jive debacle left them on the shelf for four years between their two masterpieces, Lord Willin (2002) and h--- Hath No Fury (2006). the second of the We Got It 4 Cheap tapes, which features ab-liva and sandman (credited as the re-up g---), is the best, and one of the key pieces of the form's minor renaissance. listen: http://www.datpiff.com/The-Clipse-We-got-it-4-cheap-Vol-2-mixtape.819.html

I'm a big Pusha fan, but haven't heard much of Clipse, especially older material. Gonna check this out sometime soon and i'm pretty keen to listen to it, will report back after listening.

 

Sep 10, 2015

you should listen to their first two albums. both are absolutely essential, some of the best of their decade.

 

Sep 10, 2015

@WPG I'm a big Re-Up g--- fan. All the mixtapes were dope.

Thanks for the recommendation, I've listened to their first two albums but nothing more from them as a group.
