its not that Can-I-Bus wasn't a good album...
its just that RTJ, 2000BC, Mic Club, & For Whom the Beat Tolls were all much better.
i think Can-I-Bus wasn't tha canibus most people wanted to hear, lyrically. he had a few good songs on there (buckingham palace, channel zero, 2nd round knockout), but other than that it was a buncha softer concept songs about stopping club violence n shit like that lol..
i think i read somewhere he was trying to show the critics he wasn't just a battle emcee...
