Well, after my first listen through the album I have to regrettably say I’m not feeling it. With the exception of the two tracks they released early on (GV & Grime) every song sounds the same. Maybe it’ll grow on me after a few spins and I’m still looking forward to their live show, but right now, meh…

Maybe there was a reason this project didn’t have any budget behind it.  But even tho I still find it hard to believe that its a fuckin CD-R with a damn sticker on top???  I wouldn’t know, I purchased on ITunes.  

I’m sure after the good response this has received, its duly noted within the GV and MNE camps and they’ll drop a bomb for the sophomore album.

I bought it straight from Twiztid-shop. It’s definitely a CD-R With a sticker on the CD.

Ninjas should know that Majik Ninja has already corrected this fuck up. (prolly should be a FLH news story?)

They have now got the album pressed up properly, and moving forward any ninja ordering the cd will get the corrected version.

Here is a fresh video from DC FaygoGuy detailing the differences between both versions, he just got the new one a few days ago –

On first listen through I was into it for the most part. But since then I haven’t even thought about it again until I saw this thread. And now that I AM thinking about it…I can’t remember a song besides for the one they put out before the album came out.

I figured I’d dig up this thread to talk about “The Lost Tapes.”  I got it and spun it a few times, so here are a few bullet points:

• Went into it with the mentality that it would sound like a lackluster Ape-X.  It’s pretty on point with Ape-X through most of it.
• Of the 12 tracks, only one has a feature on it.
• The majority of it sounds like Prozak rapping along side the child of Rittz and The Tasmanian Devil.  Which I dig.
• You get to hear a ClockworC solo track.  I had wondered if he could carry a song by himself because of his rapping style. but it turns out that he can also sing.  So yes.
• I liked 10/12 of the tracks.  Unfortunately the 2 I didn’t care for are the first 2.

Top 3 tracks: “Fuck Shit Up,” “Lie,” and “Concrete Sea.”

Bottom 3 tracks: “Cold Cold World” (very empty beat), “Hella White Tiger,” and “Now and Forever ft. Rebecca Leon”

Now to explain further, “Hella White Tiger” is a good track, it’s just that the intro of the instrumental gives me the urge to skip it.  “Now and Forever” is also a good track, but the hook sounds like someone paused the GV track and played a random song every minute or so.  Doesn’t mesh with the verses at all.  And “Cold Cold World…” yeah, just didn’t like it.

By thew way, here’s Clock’s solo track.  I was impressed:
