I expect "Giraffe Pussy" and "Drink Irish" are going to be his "battle"/"ignortant" tracks for the album. Which is fine, because the artists has on those songs are great at doing that type of shit. I wouldn't even be mad if "H20" with Rakka and Monch was on some "super lyrical" shit. As long as he has a good mix, I'm expecting big things.

"Lonely and Cold" and "Shotguns in Hell" have me fiending for a full-length collabo from the two.

>a Willie Da kid Apollo Brown album would be ill too

I know very little about Willie beyond the EP he did with Alchemist. That shit was dope though.

This is like Rassy's get out of jail free card.

I hope he's saved up those "100 amazing songs" he wrote in jail

Haven't listened to a Ras album in close to a decade but I will certainly be looking forward to this.

He was my favorite rapper way back when - really rooting for this to work.

As in, mixed again.

Other than that, super dope.

Some of y'all do amazing stuff with technology, can any of you audio wizards somehow improve the audio on Pharoahe's verse? Long shot, but can't hurt to ask.

>it was a hokey soul chop and 2 standard "reminisce when the
>times were simpler" verses

Except Ras' verse isn't a "standard" verse about "reminisc(ing) when times were simpler." You surely did NOT listen to this song in any way that the word "listen" is used in the English language. You skimmed through it. That's not *listening*. I did a quick transcription of the lyrics for you, since you couldn't be bothered to actually listen to them closely.

Ras' verse

Archeological logic
Discover in (gold?) fossils
to paint a perfect picture
12 years a slave
20 years a spitter
37 years a n----r
Hoping to see 90
being a strong black figure
Stand and deliver
Breath fire in Japan
Godzilla
By popular demand of the fans
See the god got iller
I'm like Cornel West
with scales on my chest
You Superman thugs
catch Kryptonite to the flesh
See the hood got me stressed
take ??? to the neck
I discovered KRS
Let us begin
what, when, how and why
will all will be explained
If not, fam will die
Losing Granny was the hardest
Good women, I f--ked
left broken-hearted
Turned up, being retarded
Transformation
an activist, from an artist
A young (mulatto?)
whom the Taliban would target
sex traffic was free
Turn down for what?
Cuz b----s turn themselves nowadays
filming on Vine
and wonder why crime don't pay
??? outlandish
Dirty pistol I brandish
Glad they didn't have cameraphones
when I was young doing bad sh-t
Yeah, I just dated myself
I'm no spring chicken
but why you hate on yourself
For five minutes of fame
Find yourself like Katt Stacks
Knocked out of the frame
Locked in a cage
??? it's true
You backwards hustling, homie
you snitching on you
I'm on my (game card?) b-boy
bebop Aristotle
Prehistoric talent
twist the top off the bottle
My elders clash
Tyrannosaurus Rex in the lab shit
Leimert Park, so I pass it jurassic

___

If anything, it's a non-topical verse that goes all over the place. Somehow you listened to those lyrics above and heard a "standard reminiscing on the past" verse? Take a few listens to a song and actually pay attention to the lyrics before you hop on the Internet to trash it, with half-formed ideas of what the verses were even about.

Peace,

Spirit (Alan)

He already said he's just mad that Apollo Brown is
popular.

He liked him better when no one knew him, wants him
to himself

He didn't listen to the song at all.

Off the strength of that line ALONE, I'm going to say that Ras is really trying to give us what we want from him on this project.

Some people who think of themselves as purist love to bitch and moan about the state of hip-hop and talk about how wack the commercial bullshit is.

Then when some raw hip-hop comes out that is along the lines of the classics, they bitch and moan about that saying that the sound is played out and it's boring.

Reality is, those people just want to bitch and moan and will never be pleased.

it's trite, and I never liked that phrase...but it doesn't really drag the song down to me...

so here's to hoping that my initial thought when I saw the tracklist -- that the hook on "Giraffe P..." would be the worst moment on the album -- is correct.

Four times of "High like Giraffe Pussy" is beyond overkill and obnoxious.

Still, the rest of the track, even the first half of the hook, is dope.

It appears to have leaked, so someone made the decision to authorize iTunes to start selling it now. Not available yet through MMG's bandcamp, and I'm guessing no physical copies until Tuesday. I'll be waiting to cop a CD, but I'm certainly tempted to buy via iTunes.

Very good, enjoyable record

Second half is an outstanding...they really
vibed, Ras felt comfortable over the beats, was at
his shit talk-while-still-being-reflective-self

First half has some good moments...very good. But
didn't flow as well.

You ride HARD for that label, and I'm not mad at it because they hit 90-95% of the time...but

That UH sh!t you hyped up was boring.

The rappers are not good.

Red Pill is decent sometimes, but that other guy is unlistenable.


And it has NOTHING to do with the subject matter....they just aren't good.


At all. Losing fight...

So I suppported them based on their support on HERE
and because of Apollo Brown

So I've EARNED the right to have an opinion

The rapping...left a lot to be desired...I just wasnt
feeling it

But you know what?

I'll throw it on, give it ANOTHER listen just because
I'm a fair, caring, introspective African-American man
with knowledge of self

My favorite Apollo album so far.

Wasn't expecting much cause I didn't like Humble Pi lol.

But they definitely delivered.

Very dope.

I am however not a fan of Apollo Brown for a whole album. his beats sound the same to me. I feel like he's good for 3-4 songs on an album but beyond that it's repetitive.

In response to Reply # 122


  

          

I like his joint albums with Oh No but the albums where he does all the album don't usually work for me. If he's paired with the right MC it's cool, but sometimes it can sound the the same 4 dope songs over and over. The album Alchemist did with Roc Marciano felt like that to me.

I'm thinking of Lord steppington, but that was Evidence and Alchemist. Marci beaucoup was also monotonous to me.

....and a few of the beats don't give way for the rhymes to shine through strong enough ....overall, i'm glad theres many songs so I can just narrow it down to 10 or so really dope songs

In response to Reply # 130


          

There are no *bad* beats on here, but Apollo's style is what it is, and to be honest, he samples a few previously used records in very unimaginative ways here.

Unless you're really into what Ras is saying on a song like, say, "Please Don't Let Me", or "Roses", it'd be hard to shake the feeling that you've heard it before.

Flavor...ish might get lost in the shuffle cause of the other dope releases around the same time, but this joint is heat...Ras Kass is top 3 all time on the left coast...

when this originally dropped, Mello Music Group is repressing this on vinyl. There's the link to their website to pre-order: https://www.mellomusicgroup.com/collections/pre-order-lp/products/apollo-brown-ras-kass-blasphemy-lp



I've been looking to order this album ever since the 4-5 years when I finally listened to this album.
