@Manky: Agree with pretty much everything you said. It all comes down to different tastes I guess. Well actually I disagree with one thing you said. Friend of Mine and Machine Gun Funk are DEFINITELY not filler, especially the latter. The latter would rank as one of my top 5 RTD tracks in fact. Biggie rips that beat to shreds! The weakest song on RTD is "Respect" imo, and that's mostly because of the hook. I think that Biggie was more of an artist and L was, like you said, more of a straight rapper. "Life After Death" was BIG's crowning artistic achievement, it just had something for everyone.
Have you ever listened to Mad Skillz, Manky? I think you'd really like him.
Also, what's your opinion on Diamond D, Manky?
