Fifty use to be real thug huslte on the coner dude, now he's disco inferno's, candyshoppin, best friending. (Soft like JoJo). He got caught lip singin at the BET awards. (Rapping over vocals) Cat raps like he from the south. (Should kept it local). Sometimes tons of cats on stage with him. (Hard to see who the gorilla). If this isn't a diss I don't know waht is.

You can see someone thought it was "artistic"! I've ordered my copy from Amazon and I'm waiting with baited breath, I've got to say I'm hoping it's another "Like Water For Chocolate" (that was definitely a timeless album) but I'm now sceptical that he'll ever produce anything as tight - this will hopefully come close! On "Be" the ComYe combo worked well, but I thought there were some slip-up tracks on there! Reading the reviews, it sounds like Ye has stepped his game back to what I know and love: "The People" and "The Game" seem to show this.

Don't think so, aren't they actually Guerilla-Unit? Still, the pics were appropriate. Good post Riz! By the way, why are reactions so mixed for Common's FF? It's not his best album but it's still an enjoyable solid effort in my opinion. Only minor beef I had with it was that it recycles 'So Far To Go' which was already on Dilla's 'The Shining'. I can understand why he wanted a Dilla joint on it though. “the Gorilla line = Gorilla-Unit?”
