THE OFFICIAL SAN QUINN - "THE ROCK" THREAD
- Thread starter Done Deal Kenny
- Start date
I think the album has lots of heat on it! Some definitely catchy beats........Heard it about 5 times and I am pretty impressed...I would say about an 8-8.5 out of 10......I personally like when Quinn busts that Real Feel Good shiet because he has the ability to articulate social issues in the inner city..........definitely an album to be slapped in the RIDE....I could see how the album could have some mainstream appeal with some of the knockin azz beats......I hope Quinn blows up with this album..........he was ahead of his time with Live N Direct & Hustle Continues and those albums are 2 of the all-time greatest! Time for Quinn to get the recognition he deserves.......
get it tomorrow thats when it counts that dude showtime aint telling the truth tower records told me it doesn't count at stores like frisco street show so get it tomorrow at tower 3-5 i'm there!!! and that dude that said the album is not real is funny!!!! how is it not real!! quinn talks about some crazy shit in there but yall gotta listen to the lyrics
I got mine tonight through my hookup at Best Buy lol. I gotta say I expected much more after hearing " Look what I've done " and " Hell Yeah ". Usually it's the beats that appeal to me and they weren't anything phenominal IMO. Hopefully this album grows on me, but so far it's just a normal album. Not on the same level as the last.
no mateer how good lyricist you are, if your beats suck your album sucks; having good lyrics is coo, but it's not what makes your album great, it's the music that does it; this album starts good with a few tight songs and then it gets mediocre; 5 or 6 good tracks makes for 6/10 album IMO; it is far from the classic his 95-96 albums were
quite the opposite - what has changed compared to the golden era in the mid 90s is the quality of the beats and flows; lyrics are generally the same; it has always been the same playa-hustla-pimp shit with few exception here and there; I don't see any difference; the beats they doin now are horrible though, except for the hyphye beats which are 1 or 2 on a 20 track album; that can't make your album good; and they started flowing slow
this si the real problem
this si the real problem
I think the album is real dope. Quinn switches up his flow on a few tracks and his lyrics are on point as usual. I thought the production was dope for the most part. The songs are diverse and the album offers a little bit of everything. I feel like this is an album I will be able to listen to for a long time. I think this is a more of a MATURE album from Quinn, some of theyoungsters looking for hyphy tracks to gig to, won't feel this one. Folks looking for a good listen, go get it.
