Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Yup, Mtown--that 8.5/10 rating for GENIE's about right (I'd probably give DREGANOMICS an 8/10). I've dug MD all through his career. IMHO, a listener has to approach the more recent MD CDs differently than the earlier stuff. His recent shit's dope--it's just dope in a DIFFERENT WAY than the earlier CDs. That's the key.

A lot of times, I think MD has fun rhyming just to rhyme, even if the song doesn't have a message--which is cool, because after all, isn't that how Hip-Hop started in the '70s? As much as I love gangsta and (although you don't hear it much nowadays) political rap, I don't want to be analyzing shit ALL THE TIME. That's where MD comes in. He's one of the few rappers I know of who can make you laugh and yet still command respect because of some rhyme/phrase that makes you ask, "did he just say what I THINK he said? How could anyone think of something like THAT?" MD reminds me of the kind of dude who can make you laugh WITH him, but you probably wouldn't want to laugh AT him (or harass him in any way), because you know that he could probably whoop your ass if he wanted to. Not many rappers can make you laugh w/out being viewed as "novelty" artists w/ short shelf-lives. MD does, and he still has a solid following.

PEACE!
