Surprised ODB was so low, he was my #1
yea he'd be higher up for me too
odb possibly has my favorite verse on any wu album "here i go / deep type flow..."
― marcos, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 18:24 (six years ago) link
yeah his delivery is so great on that.

great album, much better as a whole than the sum of its parts
― bodak horseman (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 15 November 2017 18:35 (six years ago) link
yeah this was better than it should have been for sure.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 18:40 (six years ago) link
benefits from all the songs being fairly short imo, all killer no filler
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 18:46 (six years ago) link
also avoided sounding pastiche.

never really liked this as much as I expected to, it's alternately too goofy and too gross
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 19:20 (six years ago) link
production is A++ though
― bodak horseman (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 15 November 2017 19:30 (six years ago) link
never registered as gross to me. just straight up funny in the best way possible

^^ banger after banger
― bodak horseman (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 15 November 2017 20:09 (six years ago) link
yeah pretty much perfect album.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 20:31 (six years ago) link
This album needs to be polled separately
― Spottie, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 20:59 (six years ago) link
might be sacrilege but it may be my favorite from both artists
pretty big point jump for the next one. the next six were all really tightly scored.

this album is a subwoofer murderer

Release Yo Delf has been a staple on my workout/pump-up playlists for like 20 years.

It's definitely my favorite by Meth. Blackout! 2 was unfairly overlooked, imo, even though it doesn't have the hit-to-miss ratio of the original, it has some jams,
― bodak horseman (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 15 November 2017 21:49 (six years ago) link
yeah BO2 was pretty good!

waaaaaaht that is def too low
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 22:46 (six years ago) link
It's acutally tied with the next one but the next one had a first place vote and more voters(!). this run are all within a handful of points.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 22:49 (six years ago) link
i def waited in a long line at Sam Goody for the midnight release of that one.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 23:02 (six years ago) link
feel like thats a common story for that album tho

who put that as no. 1 lol
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 23:35 (six years ago) link

last two are too high for me
yeah
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 16 November 2017 00:01 (six years ago) link
otm, i never understood the amount of acclaim that fishscale gets. It has good moments for sure, but a good chunk of the rapping on it feels kind of enervated and lifeless to me, at least compared to the ghost albums that preceded it
― intheblanks, Thursday, 16 November 2017 00:10 (six years ago) link
it's good but yeah the preceding ones are all better imo (ok maybe not Wallets)

not a lot of votes but those that did ranked this high (myself included).
Fishscale was very high on my ballot, propelled by the Dilla and DOOM beats, plus Shakey Dog, Kilo, The Chanp to start it off

the w over wutang forever is nuts

your vote would've saved it lol

fuuuck... guys I’m the #1 for The W but only bc I assumed it would be unfairly overlooked. If I’d known there would only be 17 ballots I would have voted Forever easy.I broke the Wu poll ;_;
― Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Thursday, 16 November 2017 00:56 (six years ago) link
Both of the last 2 woulda been higher if I’d voted
― Futuristic Bow Wow (thewufs), Thursday, 16 November 2017 00:57 (six years ago) link
haha it's more fun this way. unpredictable
― Spottie, Thursday, 16 November 2017 00:58 (six years ago) link
I prefer “The W” to “36 chambers” even though the latter is more consistent
