i was going to ask about this. anybody hear it? i liked the ep but didn't give 8,000,000 stories a chance.
i was'nt a fan of 8,000,000 stories either. I've heard snippits and the new album sound pretty dope

its not there best. But i havent been happy with an album in a long time. I cant remember the last time a got an album that i could play all the way through without skipping one song and wanting to do that over and over. Cause its got 13 tracks and there are a couple whack ones.
i give it 3.5 out of 5

Does anyone know if the instrumentals will be released. I don't really like print but I love rjd2s beats.
The only thing I can dig with blueprint is aesop rock- alchemy.

There are only asmall handfull of albums like that for me. I try not to compare every album I get to that standard. If you are looking for that kind of magic with every album you get you will be dissapointed often.

I think RJD2 is a decent enough beatmaker, but I think he shines so much more when he's doing his own instrumental thing.
Like Magnificent City isn't all that bad, but I will listen to Since We Last Spoke over that album any day. Maybe it's just my musical taste.

I like like 98% of the beats he's made. The only one that I didn't like off the top of my head is the one he did for murs on the end of the beginning. I think it was called sore losers?
The beat he made for cage (shoot frank) is probobly my favorite outside of his solo work. Its definitely time he starts grindin on a new solo album.

This album has made me believe in RJD2 again...hadn't felt anything since his last LP, but this is RJ in his best form. The whole album is crafted so well.
Too bad Blueprint sucks.
he's a better rapper than u are. ;)

The only track I like off the new one is "Priceless".

So no word on an instrumentals?

I thought the fluffer thing was funy actually. I think Blueprint is a really dope producer. As an MC i think he's really good sometimes but occasional he says some shit that just doesnt seem right. hard to explain. its like "why did he say it like THAT?". Vast Aire does the same thing sometimes. its probably just me. Overall I consider myself a Bluerpint fan, just talkin a little sheeyit, not hating.

i heard one of the tracks off of this album on the radio today.... it was ok, i'm not the biggest fan of blueprint in the studio.....
they followed it up with some damn eric b and rakim though...... i was like, 'oh hell yeah'....
i think RJD2's been tiring himself out lately. The beats on the new album are cool (same goes with the aceyalbum) but i think both him and Blueprint do better on their own.
Blueprint really is a good rapper imo. but i definately think he sounds better over his own production most times. the greenhouse effect's latest album and his 1988 album are bangers for sure. and that radiohead remix he did was super good too.
i tink the new soul position is one that will grow on me in time. it's just a bit lighter than the last.

Blueprint is definitely a sick MC. You just have to find the style of his you like. Some like Soul Postion, some like his massiv ammounts of cameos on other peoples shit, and some like his solo tracks. I personally thought 1988 was one of the dopest albums. Never seen him live though... anybody seen him?
