'superbad' mixtape is my fav i think (thats the one that has 'long journey' which is essential imo)
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:06 (twelve years ago) link
see i never even got that one because i was like "is this an album leak? i'm just gonna wait for the retail version." does it have a lot of songs not on other releases?
― bernard so icey (some dude), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:23 (twelve years ago) link
1. Take you down ft. T- pain 2:122. Fuck the police ft. webbie 3:483. Got them hos like 3:474. Long journey ft. webbie 3:31 5. Paper chaser (produced by the runners) 1:146. Sunshine ft. webbie
this run is incredible -- pretty sure only 'long journey' ended up on any later releases?
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:24 (twelve years ago) link
and then only as a bonus track
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:25 (twelve years ago) link
the dj drops on these are super annoying, tho
they all sounded like major label album tracks, esp the track w/ a peak-era T-Pain chorus. it was super confusing to me why they never made the album & only leaked out on one tagged-up mixtape
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:29 (twelve years ago) link
that t-pain track is great
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:29 (twelve years ago) link
every track in that run is amazing. it came out right after thug passion, which i thought was a huge step up as was, then i heard 'return' mixtape & it was just like, each song was dope, track after track
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:30 (twelve years ago) link
thats a pretty empty post but my point is, i couldnt believe that he seemed to be stepping it up, then took an even bigger step on a tape that was released like one week later
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:31 (twelve years ago) link
seriously how did his label drop the ball so completely? 'take you down' is hit material, should have been on billboard
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:32 (twelve years ago) link
& this was fresh off the trill fam comp right??
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:33 (twelve years ago) link
yeah it being out so soon after Thug Passion was the other reason i flaked out on hearing it
at this point it kinda goes without saying that Trill shit the bed in so many ways with his career
― bernard so icey (some dude), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:34 (twelve years ago) link
it does but the scope of it is pretty incredible.
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:34 (twelve years ago) link
well, da beginning kinda was -- but the superbad tape is prob two years after that right?
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:35 (twelve years ago) link
that said pimp c dying probably fucked Trill in any number of ways
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:35 (twelve years ago) link
that's an xp to deej's post about the trill ent comp
yeah yr right ... trill fam comp / "independent" success was 07 iirc and this didnt drop til early 09 (so more like one year but still)
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:36 (twelve years ago) link
1.5 yrs
yeah it's crazy that "independent" was this massive smash that sorta felt like the next wave of trill ent radio jams and then they pretty much fell off the face of the earth
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:36 (twelve years ago) link
i never really had any sense of how hands-on Pimp actually was w/ the label -- even in the couple years between him getting out of jail and dying there were no real visible fingerprints of him having much involvement musically or businesswise
― bernard so icey (some dude), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:37 (twelve years ago) link
when i did my year-end '09 mix i was trying real hard to fit 'got them hos like' on it but the ughhh loud drops -- like double the track volume -- made it impossible
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:37 (twelve years ago) link
i love the second verse of that t-pain song
i don't spit that fire i spit lavacoogi sweaters like big poppa, holla

you might know better than me, maybe he was a figurehead idk -- he just seemed like the kind of dude who would be hands on & i know he was involved w/ pushing boosie & webbie early on but who knows xxp
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:39 (twelve years ago) link
asylum kind of sucks as a label imo
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:40 (twelve years ago) link
i love Webbie's flow on "Long Journey" -- maybe Jordan not-sargent can come in & tell us what hes doing rhythmically but it just sounds great, the way the beat drops out & everything...

― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:41 (twelve years ago) link
like the emphasis is on the off-beats or something
imo Asylum deserves a lot of credit for trying to do things differently within the major label system and find a good commercial middleground for regional/non-crossover type rap, but obviously there have been missteps and varying degrees of success

i'll give asylum a small break on account of gucci & boosie having been in jail for a combined like 3 years of the past 4
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:45 (twelve years ago) link
i don't think they have much of a plan for breaking their artists big tho
i mean they weren't even planning 'flockaveli' as an album until "no hands" became a hit
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:47 (twelve years ago) link
man, just realized no one at pfork has reviewed a boosie record. wish id pitched 'incarcerated' now
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:47 (twelve years ago) link
"sunshine" off 'superbad' is another choice joint
maybe you could pitch a career retrospective once he gets four life sentences or whatever
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:48 (twelve years ago) link
yeah dude like i said the first 6 (really, could go to 10, although 7-10 are like a decimal of a degree below the first 6) tracks are some of the best ish he ever did
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:50 (twelve years ago) link
my personal POX boosie would have at minimum three of those tracks ha
― timbo slice (D-40), Sunday, 3 April 2011 02:53 (twelve years ago) link
don't know much about his mixtapes but "Do It Again" off of Incarcerated is a nice spin on the 'melancholy rap' tune motif....
― San Te, Sunday, 3 April 2011 03:59 (twelve years ago) link
that said I 'liked' his FB page and all I get from them are updates saying support the freeing of Lil Boosie and I kinda wanna reply "yo dude I bump your cds but like I think you killed all those dudes"
― San Te, Sunday, 3 April 2011 04:00 (twelve years ago) link
anyone got a link for 'thug passion'? or any more boosie mixtape recommendations? can't get enough at the mo
