Canibus Appreciation

Postby GoodGirlsGetGutted » Feb 12th, '10, 18:38

Ever heard the track "Showtime at the Gallow"?
Fucking sick.

How is Melatonin Magik, compared to his other albums?
Is it as good as, say, Rip the Jacker?
If so, I might pick it up.

It isn't anything like Rip The Jacker but it's still a dope album
definitely worth picking up if you see it at your nearest Best Buy :y:

I've never liked Canibus.

I wish I could, I feel like I'm missing out...but I just really can't get into his shit. :(

Yeah, that's the vibe I've gotten. I understand trying to be heated with your delivery, but between that and the lines he writes, it comes across forced...

I used to think that.
Now I just think that that's the only way he knows how to rap.

once you get used to his voice he is just amazing.
hes the best ever in my eyes/ears.
his voice sounds futuristic and Melatonin Magik is just a great album, to me its up there with Rip The Jacker.
they are both completly different albums but both are great.

he changed it up on The "C True Hollywood Stories" with a lighter voice but I think that is his weakest album. (besides Mind Control which is hardly considered an official Canibus album.)

I'd say Rip The Jacker is still #1 to me and that MM is tied with Mic Club...

We think we can rate it now, but I still believe it will take a month or two to really rate an album. See which songs die out or grow on us.

Rip The Jacker is one of my favorites ever, but I'd say Melatonin Magik is the second best by him. But it's pretty far behind. But this is a good thread.. Dude deserves the appreciation :b:
