I guess that's the other thing. I only heard a handful of "great" songs. Most songs on OB4CL2 I felt were just "good" songs. Like I couldn't tell you that there was anything bad about that. But they weren't quite great to me for the most part.

I hate to quote Pitchfork, but really I think this paragraph pretty much articulates my thoughts on WU-MASSACRE:

The limitations of that turnaround are unmistakable on Wu-Massacre. The three stars appear on a total of three songs together, and the padding they needed to push the album beyond CD-single status is obvious from the credits alone: two skits, guest verses from nearly every Theodore Unit B-teamer (Sheek Louch sorta counts at this point), and three remakes. All to account for about 30 minutes of music.

I mean, yeah the brevity and unfinished sound was certainly a major complaint for me. But as they pointed out, the album is credited to Meth, Ghost & Rae... that was the major selling point. That's WHY we wanted this album. But Meth, Ghost & Rae really only completed 3 songs together. Then Def Jam had them add some filler to those 3 songs until it ALMOST hit the half-hour mark and called that shit a day. Perhaps it would be nice to actually someday hear a Meth, Ghost & Rae album that is a full album of those 3 together.

I just picked this up. About to listen. I can, however, say that the artwork rules. I got the Ghost cover.

I was disappointed. Definitely felt rushed. It was good in terms of beats and lyrics but it needed more. This had a lot of potential.

Listening now. I dig it, obviously it's too short and not all of it is hot, but I kinda appreciate the short length. The whole thing has a weird flow, things cutting off, completely stopping, often.. everything is so short and compact. There's not much filler, I just wish all 3 rapped on more songs. OUR DREAMS can fuck off.

It's cool so far. The album artwork is amazing. I ripped it, so I only have digital versions of the covers, but I love how they went comic style!

Edited: Why doesn't Method Man bring back some of them 'phat beats' that he used to be loved for. It seems like a lot of hip-hop these days sounds like Jay-Z and the likes. I mean, it's not an overly bad thing, but why no rapping over a strong beat anymore?

And I agree, 'Our Dream' is a terrible song.

hahaha yeah that line is hilarious! I think a 30 minute album would have been fine if there were no skits, and if the songs didn't fade out with no warning. And yes, all 3 should be on every track, with no guests.

i got the method man cover.

i don't mind that it's short, i am however bothered by the fact that the music isn't that good. i like pimpin' chipp and our dreams.

none of is bad just nothing special, meth vs chef.2 is so different from the original and so far off quality wise it's an insult to the name

Just don't understand the point of a 29 minute album (with only, what, 25 minutes of it being music) that is probably $15.

Like, those dudes could have some with 25 minutes worth of decent rhymes over decent beats in probably an hour. This thing just felt so lazy and rushed, all things considered. I don't mind it, as I wrote above, it was an easy listen, and nothing was overly bad about it, but I do feel sorry for anyone that purchased it.
