Blackstar is in my top 10 rap albums of all time.

The production is magical.

I never liked him, he's too Afrocentric for me, plus I hate conscious rap aside from Common

his verse on Respiration is incredible though - I can't deny that he has serious talent on the mic :y:
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified

I like him but at times I find some of his songs boring tbh. He's definitely really talented and underrated and Ecstatic is really dope album.

That's good, I still can't really get into BOBS, find it too mellow I guess for my tastes.

One of my favorite rappers.

Black On Both Sides is one of the greatest hip-hop albums to date.
The Ecstatic is amazing also...

I don't know why,but he always sounds fresh to me,like I never heard a song of his before.
One of the all-time greats in my opinion...

That movie with him and bruce willis was pretty good, watched it a couple months ago, haven't listened to much of his music though.
