Albums with....

[MATW95]

...great lyrics, but mediocre beats. Are there any albums you can think of where an MC rips it, but isn't provided the right beats to back them up?

Inspectah Deck - The Movement
Street Life - Street Education
2Pac - Loyal To The Game

Soul on Ice

 

[7 Syns]

Soul on Ice

What I thought when I read the thread.

peace.

Soul on Ice

Word, definently. I feel bad cause I can't even listen to that albums because the beats are such a mess.

We Come Strapped- MC Eight
(Some solid beats but overall boring atmosphere coming from it, not even laid back just boring)
9 Lives- Az
Do or Die-Az
(Pretty much all of his albums have bad production)
Probably Immortal Technique albums too, not big named producers which he could use.

 

[Telekinesiz]

Soul on Ice

Same problem with Rassasination.

doe or die by az has some good production and i really dont know what the hell you are talking about when you say pretty much all his albums have bad production because that really isnt true at all

Beneath The Surface-GZA
2000 BC-Canibus

this is the story of canibus' whole career and why no one cares about all of his 1000 releases.

Early 2Pac for me...could be cos of its early - mid 90's production for me though.

2Pac - Loyal To The Game

 

[Lok]

lol @ MC Eiht. If anything it has great production & mediocre lyrics.

A lot of people on here think any production that isn't post-Dre is weak. G'yeah.

 

[jbrolax]

alot of nas' beats suck, but not enough of an album of his, you know?

 

[troublesome2004]

I agree what people said about Ras Kass and Canibus and for the most part AZ has mediocre beats. I was thinking about Method Man's 'Tical 0 The Prequel' also.

Kinda agree if you mean Early 90's not mid 90's....MID 90's is AEOM and Makaveli. Those beats are the best ever...

MATW didnt have the greatest beats of all time thats for sure.

I like beats on MATW. That's the first Pac album which I actually bought. It costed me pretty much but it was worth.
