Ghostdini: The Wizard of Poetry in Emerald City
Been bangin’ this album for a couple of days now and I’ll be picking it up the minute I go to the store. Ghostface never ceases to amaze me because he has managed to accomplish what many rappers have failed to do; create a dope R&B-influenced album. Obviously, Def Jam had a lot of influence in the direction of this album due to the lackluster sales of his previous efforts. The crazy thing is he didn’t raise a fuss or anything, instead he just went into the lab and created a dope album. But don’t take my word, take in the full album for yourself! My choice cuts are “Let’s Stop Playin’ f/ John Legend”, “Guest House f/ Fabolous (Prod. J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League)”, “Lonely”, “Stapleton Sex”, and “Goner”.
C’mon! The staying power of Rae, who posted the 4th highest selling CD of the week on Billboard & the consistency of Mr. Coles, my birthmate, who was born same day, same year, 2.5 hours apart (things you learn on the road with these cats…funny) goes to show why my favorite rappers are over 40 or almost 40:)!
WuTang Forever!
First track is heat!
Hollerate!
