The production is great, but I thought Mos was kind of hit or miss. It's not a bad listen but it's not amazing or anything. For all those who haven't heard it and are expecting BOBS/Blackstar Mos you will be dissappointed.

The Ecstatic is the best album by the genre for 2009. The reviews that I have read have been mixed, but I can't stop myself from playing the album. It's that good.

It's not the best album but it's been growing on me with every listen. Auditorium is one of the best tracks I have heard all year.

It is the best, but DOOM's Born Like This was also pretty good.

My top 10 would go something like:

1. Bells of War

3. Da Mystery of Chessboxin
4. Method Man
5. For Heavenz Sake
6. Let my *****s Live
7. Gravel Pit
8. Triumph
9. Bring Da Ruckus
10. Tearz

Da Rockwilder by Method Man & Cam'Ron

ATLien · 06-14-2009, 03:13 PM

C.R.E.A.M. was pretty good.

**bball2223** · 06-14-2009, 03:31 PM

CREAM is a good choice, Timmy failed though smh

At first you said "I thought Rockwilder was the joint with Redman"

Bball, I assume you know about 5 Elementz, right? Mannnnnnn what an underrated group. If they stayed together, they would've made some serious noise.

**bball2223** · 06-16-2009, 07:24 PM

The group with Dilla (RIP), Proof (RIP), Thyme, and Mudd? Word man that would have been dope if they stayed on track. Have you heard "The Album That Time Forgot"? Underrated album, and it's dope as hell.

Even though we lost Dilla, and Proof Detroit could still get a supergroup going that would pretty much wreck anyone else. Imagine Black Milk producing with Elzhi, One Be Lo, Eminem, Royce Da 5'9", and Phat Kat on the mic? Game Over!!!

UD40 · 06-16-2009, 07:26 PM

I heard the album like a year ago, and I acutally just re-downloaded it just a second ago. Without a doubt some dope *** music. It's clear Proof jacked ODB's style on Whutchuwant, but it's still dope.

Random Axe doesn't look bad with Black Milk and Guilty, throw in Sean P and that's dope.

**bball2223** · 06-17-2009, 11:57 PM

They are dope too, I think it would be better if they just kept it within the city of Detroit.

What's the best album this decade in your opinion?

I say Masters Of The Universe by Binary Star. The album is just perfect.

UD40 · 06-18-2009, 05:56 AM

God's Son.

ATLien · 06-18-2009, 06:52 AM

Blueprint or Stankonia

I would say two completely different albums if asked tomorrow though.

UD40 · 06-18-2009, 12:57 PM

I'll also throw Lord Willin into the ring. That album had FLAWLESS production, both by Pharrell and Chad both solo and together. It's almost impossible to tell Malice and Pusha apart, but it doesn't matter, they were dope the entire time. Awsome album.
