The last couple tracks bring it down a little bit, but majority of the album is up there. I legit can't listen to B.I.B.L.E. after how hard everything else is.

How can you not like BIBLE? Wtf

>>73783478
Lil Boat has better production and is more fun to listen to than GZA's boring ass talking about the same shit the rest of the Wu talks about in a needlessly complex way
>>
>>73783051
Wrong jedi mind tricks servants in heaven kings in hell is the greatest hip hop album of all time, GZA has done tracks with jedi mind tricks tho so real recognizes real.

having RZA produce your album in 95 is like having kanye produce your album now, since you know he literally got his whole sample style from RZA
>>
>>73783371
thank god someone made a list because im sick of hip hop illiterate kids spewing that liquid swords is one of the best albums of all times when its not even the best solo debut wu tang album
>>
>>73783637
It's definitely top 5 wu albums. And that still puts it pretty high in hip hop overall
>>
>>73783490
It's not a bad song, but I don't think it fits well as the closer to this album. The albums got 50 minutes of heavy hard hitting tracks, then BIBLE. It just feels like it doesn't fit in with every else.

Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version > Liquid Swords > Cuban Linx

>36 chambers
personally it goes, i want to say 6th best solo WU album. I definitely wouldn't hold it in such high regard though because Raekwon and Ghost had better beats, Ghost has infinitely better delivery and personality than GZA and raekwon had definitely top 3 debut albums. I like GZA's vocabulary but his delivery is boring, its kind of upsetting because cold world and I gotcha back are really good songs
>>
>>73783743
>>73783739
Ghost and raekwon both have the best debut album, OBFCL and ironman are both better than liquid swords. OBFCL is exeptional because of ghostface tho and the great instrumental selection

36 Chambers is better.

But Liquid Swords should have been the follow up to 36 Chambers and really feels like it is, but there's obviously not enough features for it to not be a GZA album.

no it's not, just look how fucking shitty and corny try hard lyrical rappers are (Logic, J. Cole, Big Sean, etc.) You can't force that shit, especially if you're flow is shit and you can't get good producers. Not only that, but Three-6 Mafia got fantastic flows. every single member of the group can clearly spit, who cares if they're not rapping some corny ass shit on why they're victims, they're still rapping about stuff that's reflective of Memphis culture
>>
>>73787003

36 chambers is the only rap album ever made that doesn't have a song that is a filler, counting out the remixes. Every track could have been a single.

The last couple tracks are the best though.
Investigative Reports is one of the best songs on it.
>>
>>73786838

I like all those albums but LS exists in a world of its own. It's an extremely singular record. By far the darkest Wu-Tag affiliated album ever. I can see clear similarities between Cuban Linx and Ironman but LS is just some place else.

Big L - Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous
Craig Mack - Project: Funk Da World

>>73795140
Get ready for my hot opinions
I liked ESGN more than Pinata
My favorite Nas album is the lost tapes and I think Madvillainy is maybe the most overrated album posted frequently on /mu/.
>>
>>73797134
How

Fuck you

>>73797154
I think Madlib is a much better producer than rapper. I would put Pinata over Madvillainy simply because Gibbs is a much better rapper.
>>
>>73795224
Absolutely is
>camay
>motherless child
>wildflower
>Daytona 500
>winter warz
>poisonous darts
It just indivually better songs which makes it better as a project accompanied by the fact he has a godtier delivery and a personality
>>
>>73797085
It really is though, /mu/ was a half decent place to discuss hip hop a few years ago but ever since the memerap shitstorm it has been a terrible place. Anyone who's discussing hip hop here is either posting some fantano trendy shit or 90's hip hop for the millionth time.

Do you want to talk about backpacker rap? Ultra obscure shit? Post 2000s gangsta rap? Dumb cunt stop expecting others to be on the same page as yourself, make a damn "hip hop thread that never gets talked about thread" since you want to complain about the lack of variety in the albums posted.
>>
U mad bro?
>>
36 Chambers is the most consistent rap album ever made, no filler at all, skits are iconic. Yeezus and Illmatic also have little to no filler, but Enter the Wu Tang is stays at a higher level all the way through
>>
>>73783723

illmatic isn't even a better album than it was written and it was written isn't even in the same league as liquid swords
