Only Built For Cuban Linx II

[Comparison Ford]

cuban linx 2 came out today.

Discuss.

[longballlarry]

predictions for this thread:

it will begin with an overwhelming enthusiasm for the album followed buy a bunch of "OHHH SHIITSSS" and "WHAAATS" and "I gotta cop this shit". which will in turn lead to some asshole talking about how it leaked on the internet like 2 weeks ago, which will lead to endless requests for links and PMs.

::insert "abp" and "old" posts here::

 this will then be followed by some other asshole talking about how you shouldn't download the album but buy it instead to support "real hip-hop". this will be met with anger and confusion on behalf of the other people in the thread making said poster feel good about himself. one guy will then attempt to make up some bullshit story about how nowhere around him is selling the album and he ordered it online but it won't get here till a few days and he wants to listen to it now because he simply can't wait (he will not actually purchase the album).

::insert overtly obvious claim about how it is not as good as cuban linx::

then a fight insues between two white guys about whether or not raekwon fell off or not, a parallel will inevitably be made between nas and raekwon and how none of their later albums compare to their firsts and no album in history will ever be as good as OB4CL or Illmatic. excessive quoting and name calling will follow. the thread quickly escalates into an argument between two idiots that completely runs off course and is no longer about what they were fighting about in the first place. people grow tired of listening to the endless banter about which white guy knows more about hip-hop and the thread slowly falls into the second page where no one will bother reading it because, lets face it, it's on the second page.
a few days go by and some asshole who's never seen this thread makes another thread about the album thinking he is informing the whole slap community of it's existence and is quickly met with disapproval.

Now it's a full on avalanche of accolades.

LongballLarry:
Best post I've read here in months.

By the way, I saw Raekwon here 2 months ago, he did a seven minute (we timed it) set at a strip club.
It was a great fucking seven minutes though.

[whiteley]

it will be bad and i will be sad but not surprised.
or, it will be good and i will be shocked and elated.
either way i don't think it's possible for him to top the first.

[EXTRA SPICY]

My roommate woke everyone up in the house to it at 7am this morning via the living room sound system.
Shit felt good.

[variation]

cant wait to cop this

[Chris P. Bacon]

[rawbertson.]

im not gonna pretend to know shit about hip hop, but i might check it out. just for trying somethings new out, ya know? and longballlarry has this slappin' shit down to a science.

get these CDs if you want some good hip hop:

GZA- liquid swords
Ghostface Killah - Iron Man
Raekwon - only built for cuban linx
Gangstarr - Moment of Truth
Jedi Mind Tricks - Violent By Design
7L & Esoteric - DC2: Bars of Death
Doap Nixon - Sour Diesel

those are the only ones i can think of off the top of my head actually that are really solid start to finish, no wack tracks.

[13callsBS]

I probably would listen to this, if I was unaware of how fucking white and lame I am.

Well, if it works for Rawbumskin...

Eric B and Rakim - Paid in Full
EPMD - Strictly Business
Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet
Paris - The devil made me do it
NWA - Straight out of Compton
Wu Tang Clan - 36 Chambers

All good and highly recommended.

[sectachrome]

Well, I see the thread is going as predicted.  Carry on.

yes you are lame as fuck (you are the idiot who thought a kickflip bs lip photo was a kickflip front board) but your skin colour has nothing to do with wu tang respect. quintin tarentino and rza are really good friends. you are just a little kid who still hasnt found his way never hit no hard times so i wont hold it against you.

i have actually never heard of paris. ill check it out. wu tang 36 chambers in my eyes is one of the most over hyped wu tang cds out there. its really not that good. tearz is liek the only good song really.

*edit in my opinion. obviously tons of people love that album.

[Sleazy]

fuck penis, you need some paris. so stoked to see that someone else actually gives him the repect he deserves. og bush killer



and good list by the way, haven't heard 7L or Doap Nixon so i'll be checking those out based on the quality of the others posted. and i'll throw these two on the stack


mob deep - the infamous
prodigy - hnic

[variation]

good shit

[Lurkenstock]

Damn, I didn't realize he filmed an entire music video out here when he came a couple months ago, here it is:

I don't think this song is on the album, at least it's not on the version that I downloaded from the link that was posted earlier.

Anyway, kinda hyped to see Hawaii as the background and it's definitely crazy to see the Chef rolling around Waikiki and the beach and stuff.
My favorite scene besides when he's throwing shakas is him coming out of the Bank Of Hawaii.
DAT'S MAH BANK!

Oh, and he's rocking an In4mation shirt in one part, that's fucking sick.

Good thing you respect diversity, and realize that skin color has nothing to do with respect. You are the most passionately anti-racist on here. You have never made a thread solely to throw racial slurs at ethnic groups in your area.
