i dont know about everyone else, but to me, X matured extremely between Pyschoactive and Xcorsist. putting production aside between those albums (thats obvious the production was way different after Pyschoactive). but, lyrically, he just matured, and became a lot cleaner and faster, and seems to have more of a message to tell on all his albums after pyschoactive. dont get me wrong, psychoactive is classic, i love that album, but its just typical of the era in rap it was put out. all his other shit, to me, seems to be way ahead of his time. more importantly, is his maturation in his music relative and parallel to him being incarcerated? i personally think so. what's everyone's thoughts?

I feel ya...Prison, and the shit that one goes through there, would be enough to change ANYONE's perspective...as someone I know personally once said, "being in prison SEEMS like a harmless experience, but only if YOU'VE never done it!" LOL!

But yeah, the stuff that X spits on THE UNFORGIVEN and even THE INITIATION shows that his style, flow, lyrical patterns and general way of thinking about different topics has changed. I also think that he came w/ some mature, insightful views on rap and rappers in general in some of his MURDER DOG columns (i.e., how rappers should "vary the amount of words in their bars as well as their flows" to make their styles more interesting and whatnot). So yeah, X's only grown more w/ his advancing years, and that bodes well for any future Rap CDs that he puts out in the future...

PEACE!
