Cobain's Diary was much more enjoyable than King of Horrorcore OR Van Dyke & Harper Music imo. He tried WAY too hard in KOH and just made claims. VD&H was lame-ass drug dealer shit. People rappin' about selling drugs is old and played the fuck out. CD was his most solid release since Entity. But that's purely opinion based.
sometimes mixtapes are better then albums...especially with major label artists...go listen to the Pharrell-BBC Ice Cream tape...then listen to In My Mind....the mixtape was dope. the album was a frisbee
