    Distant Relatives don't have a song as horrid as lift off and watch the throne don't have a song as good as strong will continue. Watch the throne is one of those albums that you listen to alot for the first week then forget that ? even existed after

    "Make a Change" was just as horrid... reminds me of the theme song to "Degrassi"...

    I like both albums, but none of them were as good as i expected.
    This is what i thought DR was going to sound like:

    I still think WTT is underrated and under appreciated due to the hype...I liked DR but "Otis "new day" ""welcome to the jungle" and that "what's a king to a ? " track were goat

    Don't forget "Murder to excellence "

    So basically DR is better because people expected more from WTT than they did DR?


    DR exceeding low expectations >>> WTT failing to meet higher expectations?

    I liked both albums for different reasons but DR was near classic album while WTT had some classic songs. DR had a greater challenge and exceeded my expectations. Making a positive album towards The motherland without sounding preachy and they both delivered. Whereas WTT succeeded on being a good mainstream album. Both albums symbolise the paths of Jay & Nas: The Money & The Message. Enjoy them for what they are but I always give more credit and respect to The Message path.

    It's better because it's better, I am having fish and chips for my tea as soon as my girl returns home any moment now, so hungry after being ill for the past 5 days and today I FINALLY have an appetite, what I am trying to say is your name just made me smile.
