i like deeper shit like several solo three six tapes, lil yo, blackout, tommy wright iii, nod, lady bee, but i wouldn't be satisfied with just one tape from one of them. this tape has lots of range, lots of their best stuff, etc.

Okay, I'll state the obvious one

>>73875612

They made artwork for whatever their artists want on their covers, if your head wasn't stuck so far up your ass maybe you'd be able to appreciate it. This was before the rise of digital manipulation image software. The iconic stylization of their work both with the artwork itself and the typography is what makes them well liked/respected in the art world and their influence still exists in contemporary musical artwork.

Why not? You're inferring that the more lesser known or underground albums are not as good/polished as that 3 6 mafia compilation.

Even DJ Paul/Juicy J's less popular mixes (Volume 16 and 9 respectively) are infinitely superior to Underground Vol. 1.

I don't really care that much either, it's all subjective anyway but cherypicking images to back up an uniformed misconception and being either intentionally or unintentionally disingenuous is a bad look.

>>73876289

This is probably the most overrated project released on the internet era now. I don't know if it's because the original sound it's parodying is still unfamiliar to those who hear it or because LUM is white and like with Eminem people ove- hype it because of the racial barriers in hip-hop.

Well, yeah, that was kind of the point. Nearly all their covers are goofy, which is why I dislike them in the first place.

I do, however, unironically like this one.

>>73876494

That doesn't address the main complaint from the previous post which was that your inference that they're not that talented. If you understood the era they were living in with the the technical limitations they had at the time and what they had to do in order to create the final product on the covers, you wouldn't dismiss as easily is what I'm getting at. Goofy concepts don't take away from the artwork itself.

This one is one of my favorites.I like that Big Bear cover as well, wasn't big on the album though.

>>73876467
It's the production. No other album has production like this, not even the rest of LUM's album. The braggadocious meme rhymes just make it a fun listen, but the production is God-like.

>>73876495

Sarcasm aside, treating your post seriously having MTI as your favorite album is totally fine and respectable, but when you start claiming its the pinnacle of hip-hop or the best album within the last 1-2 decades or the occasional best hip-hop album in existence post, that's when you start becoming the insufferable LUM stan.

>>73876511

Parody/tribute to underground southern hip-hop. That's why he distorts his vocals to give himself a deeper pitch and sound more menacing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkzpOQ9i5L8

>>73876879
Im the guy who posted the album. I dont care about lyrics at all, and rap is my favorite genre. Its all about the amazing production and LUMs flows. Rap lyrics are almost always trash.

>>73876879

Case in point.

>No other album has production like this

Other than the entire hiphop subgenre it's emulating?

Lil Ugly Mane wasn't even the first to bring back that sound, SpaceGhostPurrp was the first one to do it successfully.

Madvillainy, I always find something new when I listen.

>>73876911

>LUMs flows

There's nothing special about his basic punchline bars with the occasional tongue twisting, especially in unison with your retarded generalization about rap lyricism. You like the production mainly. You could have just said that and spared us all your moronic spew.

>>73876905
That doesn't count. That cover was supposed to be ironic.
