What are the best / official Lil Boosie mixtapes?

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

it does but the scope of it is pretty incredible.

well, da beginning kinda was -- but the superbad tape is prob two years after that right?

that said pimp c dying probably fucked Trill in any number of ways

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)

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

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

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

i love the second verse of that t-pain song

i don't spit that fire i spit lava
coogi sweaters like big poppa, holla

tip tells the girls they can have what they like
boosie tells the girls they can have one night

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

asylum kind of sucks as a label imo

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...

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

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

man, just realized no one at pfork has reviewed a boosie record. wish id pitched 'incarcerated' now

"sunshine" off 'superbad' is another choice joint

maybe you could pitch a career retrospective once he gets four life sentences or whatever

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

my personal POX boosie would have at minimum three of those tracks ha

don't know much about his mixtapes but "Do It Again" off of Incarcerated is a nice spin on the 'melancholy rap' tune motif....

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"

anyone got a link for 'thug passion'? or any more boosie mixtape recommendations? can't get enough at the mo
