UpholdTimMosleyI love OB4CL, but I feel like RZA's best work as a producer was on 36 Chambers and Liquid Swords, the latter of which is far less accessible than OB4CL
Wu, GZA, and Rae all dropped some of my favorite albums of all time though don't get it confused
Totally agree,Liquid Swords had a lot of experimental type beats on it from RZA. Wu-Tang as a whole has some of the best rappers oat and alot of the albums that Rap fans praise to the high heavens like Liquid Swords,Supreme Clientele and even OB4CL go over casual listeners head. Those dudes perfected the art form of rap,Ghostface on Ironman sounds like he’s rapping poetry at times,that’s a huge feat for a rapper imo.

Rocky, Raekwon, and Westside Gunn on like a Clams x Alc beat would be something else

ASAP Rocky and Pop Smoke are both legends who made major contributions to NY hip hop. Won't gas up Pop Smoke as his music is still very young and we need to see how it endures over time but they both genuinely were on some other s*** for the state.

Both were at their best prior to Rocky tbh

Quality music but still essentially underground, not to dismiss it though
Oct 30, 2021·1 replyUpholdTimMosleyYeah of all time. It'll be 10 years tomorrow, it's not like this came out yesterday. This s*** is certified.

I can absolutely tell you I prefer LLA to OB4CL
Liquid Swords is better though
all 3 are 3 of my favorite albums ever

flows and instrumentals are slighly superior. overall, in terms of quality they on par to me

RZA obviously produced excellent beats for OB4CL but his watershed moments imo were 36 Chambers and Liquid Swords. I feel like OB4CL are just slightly beneath those as far as production is concerned

Slightly is crazy
