    Can't really start working on this til all these new albums drop Friday, Drug Dealers Anonymous just came on my shuffle though and now I gotta consider that for collab of the year.

    how come there ain't a Biggest Comeback award?

    Gucci Mane actually sounding coherent on First Day Out

    Remy Ma and Fat Joe actually making a decent single that was everywhere all summer


    T.I and Common's last couple albums being mediocre but each coming out with Us or Else and Black America


    and of course Tribe

    Nobody Smiling was mediocre but The Dreamer/The Believer is better than Black America Again.

    I totally forgot TI had an album. I should check it I suppose. I ? with Trouble Man pretty hard though.

    A 'Comeback Award' isn't necessary IMO... music is always subjective with listeners... no matter how long you been out the game



    Tribe hadn't put out an album in 18 years but they killed it with the new effort and the album was universally critically acclaimed

    i might have to resticky that De la soul album. It never got the look it deserved. That album is just as widely acclaimed as The Tribe album but whether due to lazy thread presentation or whatever it didnt get the look it deserved. Im not making any list til I thoroughly listen to everything.

    Keep this ? open until Jan 15 @5th Letter

    Pump fake?


    I listened to it a couple days ago... not too bad. Not great either



    Sounded more like a mixtape... with pro-Blackness
