"Do you use profanity and disrespect women?"

"Whenever possible"

"Welcome to the label"


I forget the correct quote from Fear of a Black Hat.

It is over.

At least every song didn't seem to be about shooting people but it was all very monotonous.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

That's a brilliant album.

Still very unique production-wise and blessed with Rakim's lyrical genius.

I'm not a gr8 fan of the open track, but the rest of the album is more-or-less perfect.

I would've'd given it ★★★★, but I knew Wendi would underscore it, so... yes
