TACT OUT MUZIC said:
PERSONALLY I DONT THINK HE DESERVES A PLAQUE UNLESS THE ALBUM IS WORTHY OF A PLAQUE, THE LAST ALBUM WASNT T HAT GOOD TO ME, YET EVERYONE THINKS IT SHOULD GO PLATNUM CUZ HE'S E-40... TO ME, HIS LAST REAL GOOD PLAQUE WORTHY ALBUM WAS "LOYALTY & BETRAYAL" A WELL SLEPT ON ALBUM... I PUT IT UP THERE WITH "IN A MAJOR WAY"
DONT THINK SO??? GO LISTEN TO THAT ALBUM AGAIN!!!
Yeah, I was a little disappointed with LOYALTY & BETRAYAL when it came out, but now it sounds hella cool to me...
"Lace You Up", "Sinista Mob", "Nigga Shit", "Pop Ya Colla", "To Whom It May Concern", "Like A Jungle", "Behind Gates", "Doin' The Fool" and even "Flamboastin" knock! Just goes to show you how time changes perspectives...
Yeah, It'd be cool if BREAKING NEWS did go gold, but I'm not expecting miracles. 40 himself told MURDER DOG (in '99) that Jive was on some "Pop tart shit" (referring to Britney Spears and singers like that)...B-Legit even said that that was why he left Jive for Koch...they kept stalling around on releasing HEMPIN' AIN'T EASY (another underrated CD, IMHO).
You know, maybe I ought go back and try listening to CHARLIE HUSTLE again and see how it sounds today, huh?
PEACE!
