I can get behind that completely. The production on RTJ4 is probably the best I've heard from them.

Ha, I didn't notice that! Part of me feels like you must've missed it though - there's gotta be at least one.

Yeah, perhaps not the most apt analogy, but all of their albums are explosive efforts to some degree.

RTJ is definitely one of my favorite rap duos of all time. They've got production like Outkast, they've got the class of EPMD, they've got the grittiness of Gang Starr, and they've got the style of Organized Konfusion.
