Mar 6, 2016 the only good songs on house rules are Say Dat Then and that is only because of Joe Budden's verse and Royce is okay on Keep it 100. Rest of it is just typical rappity rap trash
Mar 6, 2016 nothing is better on the project than Budden's verse on Say Dat Then, the rest of it is very forgettable
Mar 6, 2016 Phryme had the classic hip hop feel & DJ Premier & Royce were a near perfect mix, the guests were mostly great as well. Its flaw is none of the records have a universal replay value that GKMC has, but Phryme is a very quality album
Mar 6, 2016 Honestly, no one cares about Joel Ortiz or Crooked I except the same real hip hop people. Royce is just ok, Budden is the only good thing that you can take out of SH. His solo catalog is better than the rest of the members.
Mar 6, 2016 Offshore and Budden's solo track were pretty solid too but the rest isn't nothing special or worth a mention.
Mar 6, 2016 I heard them words and they stung my ear drum Was told that cancer finally made it through his lungs Some of y'all are blessed enough that y'all have no idea what the f--- I'm talking bout, cause y'all got no experience So incase you hear this verse and think that there's the slightest chance that he'll survive His cancer's on level four, and there's not a five So my mother lose my mother, now my dad is losing his From miles apart, wildest part is that's not the wildest part What's outlandish is I too would want to vanish “Alcoholic uncle robbin' him blind and taking advantage My aunt's supposed to be holding him down, but she sure to gain Behind his back just took out another insurance claim (Say dat then) Well indeed I will They making all these alterations to his will He can't even play his poker games in peace, y'all got to chill Like I can't decide if he's dying or y'all rather have him killed I know a n-----'s last breath shouldn't be this way And if they was, I would panic too, tell me what's a man to do Playing devil's advocate, none of it's understandable I walk in the house and feel that energy as if it's tangible
Mar 6, 2016 No but I'm willing to give it a chance out of fairness. Their first two albums are garbage though.
Mar 6, 2016 oh dont even go there i was dissapointed as f--- i think House Rules is what they wouldve sounded like if they didnt go with shady records
Mar 6, 2016 Don't, it's easily their worst. If you are going to listen to anything else from them, listen to On The House.
Mar 7, 2016 In the Shady Cyphers they went in pretty hard. As someone mentioned, they are good rappers who just don't know how to make a song.
Mar 7, 2016 fhd, nwts, and take care are all better than tpab. I agree with him when it comes to gkmc tho
