Let's discuss Rick Ross' "Teflon Don"

nothing off Mastermind appeals?

it was interesting while it was on

I haven't heard this album in years but I suspect I'll still love it.

teflon don is classic. pretty much everything around this era was

I can't imagine reaching for any Rick Ross album other than Teflon Don or Rich Forever, but Mastermind was interesting because, along with all of Ross's Harry Fraud and Nas collabs, it revealed what a traditionalist the guy is. Made it really easy to imagine a scenario where he spends the rest of his career just playing to the "real rap" crowd, releasing solid but unexciting LPs that never change much kinda like Wu-Tang and Boot Camp and all those old New York types do.

Kinda a funny turn for a guy who began his career so reviled by traditionalists.

i'd listen to deeper than rap too.

still awesome btw

started sellin dope, was 2 legit 2 quit

strange choice to put "bmf" and "mc hammer" at the back end of the album. maybe stacking it with "i'm not a star" at the beginning would've been tough peak to descend from

this album is a window back into better days so I spin it a lot

I STILL hear this in my head when I think of this song almost 13 years later, lmao.

still love this album and inexplicably been bumping it again the last few weeks. feels a little weird blasting BMF in my car in fuckin' 2023 with the world going to hell and falling apart but y'know, whadya gonna do

Sorry to butt in but since this is at the top now, can anyone kindly direct me to the current hip hop thread? I mostly want to work though my cognitive dissonance over some Confederate flag crap Westside Gunn posted — I just should probably just let it go right. This is old news to most hip hop heads.
