2006 is somewhat of a mid 90's throwback year for releases.

[7 Syns]

If things work out well then 2006 will be a somewhat throwback year, by that I mean alot of liked artists from the mid-90's are dropping LP's. Some can be considered return's or comebacks. Some will dissappoint but Im sure atleast 2 will be flames. So here's a list over come up with from news, interviews and rumors of who's coming out.

Redman Red's Gone Wild,
Method Man untitled RZA exec. produced LP,
Q-Tip The Renaissance,
Busta Rhymes The Big Bang,
Nas Nasdaq Jones,
OC Smoke & Mirrors,
Raekwon Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Part II,
Ghostface FishScale.

There's more but i'll leave those names for now.

peace.

I'm watching out for busta and ghostface... Honestly, I don't see why ghostface isn't that successful mainstream. I liked bulletproof wallets and (like he said in pretty toney) it went wood, and it doesn't look like he got much airplay with the pretty toney album either.

 

[HitEmUp21]

Hopefully Monch drops something too. And there is word that he is officially off Geffen and about to drop something like a mixtape or single.

Also The Roots coming with a new album in the first quarter of 2006. Maybe they reached prominence in the late 90s, but they were certainly there in the middle of the decade.

i want to say Method Man's LP will be the one to look out for, but the last time someone pissed Nas off he dropped Stillmatic..

 

[Hymnz]

nas' album sounds like a greatest hits thing. just his name... i could (and probably am) wrong though

 

[Tekneek]

Didn't OC - Smoke and Mirrors get rated in XXL? If it comes out in 2006, why did it get rated so early?

His Name is Nasir Jones

And i thought the album was gonna be Nasdaq Dow Jones, playing off the whole stockmarket...

you forgot about dre.

he was mid-90s.

 

[PELLA]

Qtip's should be good, same with Nas.

 

[jflballer]

These guys all had huge expectations and potential. They never measured up. Not even Nas. The biggest and best f/the mid-90s have either

a) died (Pac, Biggie, Eazy-E, Pun)

or

b) moved on to bigger and better (Diddy, Jigga, Mase -- well he's back now, Master P, Ice Cube, Fugees, Will Smith, DMX)

OutKast, Snoop, and LL are the only ones still really doin it.

 

[Maverick]
