    I REALLY like Dinner Time with Busta Rhymes, great track. Old skool flow with a fantastic beat.

    I would also recommend some of his feature's on other tracks, in particular "Losing Out" from Black Milk's Tronic album and "Motown 25" from Elzhi's Preface album. He just rips them!

    Street Hop is amazing, great job from Royce, ever since SlaughterHouse got it together they have been on top of their game..

    Any fans of Royce who dont know SlaughterHouse (Royce, Joell Ortiz, Joe Budden and Crooked I) check them out

    royce is the nicest out right now, I thought he was ok back when Boom came out, like, I love primo but wasn;t gone on Royce but now, good lord, he is killing everyone.


    Royce > You're favorite rapper right now.

    This album is a, in my humble opinion, a classic, not a bad track and it's not full of stupid skits every 3 tracks, and some tracks are just wow.

    Dinner Time, Gun Harmonizing (the version without Corrked I is actually better I reckon, but Crooked still kills it), Shake This, Gangster, Hood Love and Bad Boy are my favoeite tracks, but that said, there isn't a song I don't like on the album.


    Wasn't expecting much form it after hearing the slaughterhouse album which I thought was a major let down and they rushed it way too much to capitalize on the buzz they had going and it back fired. The Revival EP did kind of give me hope, but wasn't expecting it to be "that" good, so was just blown away by how good it was.

    A classic? seroiusly?? im not trying to argue with ya or anything but the album only got released today, bit early to call it a classic.
    It's a good album, dinner time is a monster of a track but the album isn't great imo. He's trying way too hard to be gangster

    Personally royce during his death is certain days and before hand was a much better emcee than he is now


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,460 ✭✭✭Orizio


    Album seems pretty nice.

    Regarding Motown 25, easily one of the best Hip-Hop songs of this decade.

    Pity Royce and Em fell out, liked the songs they did together.


  • Registered Users Posts: 764 ✭✭✭horsebox09


    Agreed, mowtown 25 is a killer track, elzhi and royce rip it up. Royce should have gotten some black milk production for his new lp, one of the best producers in the game.

    I'd say theirs a chance royce and em will do more tracks together, em signed royce and the rest of slaughterhouse to shady/aftermath.


  • Registered Users Posts: 453 ✭✭Da GOAT


    anyone free to give the album a rating/breakdown?

    slightly off topic but... agreed on that motown 25, brilliant. black milk's production on that album was excellent. purchased tronic on the back of that album and thought it was pretty weak, any other black milk recommendations.

    royce goin in on Charles Hamelton



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,820 ✭✭✭floggg


    What the **** is with Royce backing out of a challenge. Just heard something 2 ride 2 and very pissed off that he just has Phonte singing a hook! What a waste. Te and Royce going in over preemo beats would have been an instant classic! He did the same on the slaughterhouse album by only having pharoah monch singing the hook on salute.

  • Registered Users Posts: 108 ✭✭Nu-Centz


    quality album.. tho i see what some are saying about him doing the gangster thing a bit much..."thing for your girlfriend" is gas


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,730 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    Looking forward to hearing this, will be checking it out tomorrow.
    Seems to be getting positive reviews everywhere.


  • Registered Users Posts: 108 ✭✭Nu-Centz


    i feel for royce on this one.. if it had of been promoted better maybe he would have sold more then 4000 copies or whatever it was.. such a shame, great cd.


  • Registered Users Posts: 453 ✭✭Da GOAT

    how can an album be very good if you are keeping less than half the songs on your Ipod?


  • Registered Users Posts: 453 ✭✭Da GOAT


    definition of a good album to me. i dont want loads of meh songs filling up my 8gb ipod.

    Each to his own i guess, but if damn near every track on an album can't hold my attention i would never class it as good. Then again, i do have an 80g Ipod (and an 8g too)!

    I think they're on good terms again, Royce can be seen in the Forever video on Em's verse.
