I understand that you don't think that Things Fall Apart was that great but do you really think Dice Raw didn't fit in that album or Illadelph? IMO, Dice shined on songs like "Clones" and "Episodes" and went well with the mood of the album. Dude was noticeable and necessary for that project. It suprised me when you said that he has average rhymes b/c I've always thought that he was an above average rhymesayer and it shows on both Illadelph and Things Fall Apart. I agree with you though that TFA was pretty much braggadio like previous records and I noticed that too when I first listened to it but as we see now moreso than ever, Thought has gotten deeper into other topics. Just my piece on that topic. Peace.
