Yeah, I guess it might be that.
"Total Eclipse" and "War Zone" both had that thick boom-bap I still love.
"Reloaded" was really good, too.
"Monumental" I only listened to once and it didn't stick at the time, but I'll revisit at some point. It came out around the time I had a lot of other stuff in rotation.

and when i say better they might not be better albums in the tradional way people try to judge albums. "cohesiveness" or whatever... i got more spins out of all of those either for 1 or 2 songs that hooked or whatever the reason might be than i did out of grind date.
grind date is one of those albums where the instrumental version is more enjoyable than the retail imo.
46. "most of it was stuff that had already dropped..." In response to Reply # 42
...the individual songs had more life when they came out prior to the album ...but yeah, it was on some "already heard this..next" shit when the album dropped

67. "yeah, it's mediocre." In response to Reply # 60 Wed Nov-02-11 10:41 PM by Guinness
but since we're comparing it to another mediocre album, i figured i might as well mention it. this post is more a mental exercise than anything else. "the fix" ended the conceit within five minutes anyway.

64. "Grind Date Question" In response to Reply # 0
I love the whole cd (one of the few hip-hop cd's I play all the way through). I remember first hearing it and fell out of my chair when I heard the Yes sample ("Ritual" from Tales From Topographic Oceans and the Rick Wakeman sample from The Six Wives Of Henry The 8th.
Someone "borrowed" my cd years ago and I never got it back. I can't remember the name of the guy who spoke at the end of one of the title track "My father had two jobs but he loved his kids" or something like that.
