I think it's dope...Doyal is a tight producer and DJ Fingaz produced a track on there
Yup. I like DEEP CONVERSATION a lot, too. It's shorter than THE G FILEZ or KILLA KALI, but the production is more-or-less still mobbed-out and Cel kept it street w/ the lyrics and concepts, IMHO.
There were a few songs that sounded like they could have been good radio hits: "When Yo' Man Get Sleepy", "Make 'Em Bounce" (w/ the underrated Young Bleed) and the depressing, but deep "Broken Home." It's too bad they didn't get promoted more--Celly could give radio songs a good name w/ tunes like those! Besides those, I like "The Game Ain't Blind", "You Know Me", "Which One Is U?", and "Listen To My 9" the best. If you're just being introduced to Celly, you should probably get KILLA KALI first (for historical reasons), but DEEP CONVERSATION's cool as a second or third choice, IMHO.
Celly's comp LIVE FROM THE GHETTO was also dope from start-to-finish (I usually can't get into comps) and his Criminalz project w/ Spice 1 and Jayo Felony was short, but tight as well. Hope he comes back soon...he's been missed.
PEACE!
