11 tracks? out on ITUNES? no hardcopy? this a total FAIL. just a total FAIL. Ima still cop it but I was expecting atLEAST 15 tracks. atLEAST. 3 years of waiting for 12 tracks. WOW.
@WOW. 11 tracks with Ghostface, Bun B, Chip Tha Ripper, Boldy James, Tennille, Travis Barker, and Asher Roth is a failure? For what it took to make this album a reality I’d say it’s a pretty big success. Next time think before you sound like an un-educated ass. FAKESHORE DRIVE SMACKDOWN!!!
yessir. cant wait to hear that ghostface verse.
15 tracks+ makes me lose interest immediately these days. 11 good joints is [good] enough for me. Lets hear it first before we bash it.
@Anon the problem is I’ve heard 4 of these tracks at their concerts. Plus they didn’t put some tracks I thought they were gonna put on like Over Here ft 10iller and Pedal to the medal. I’m definitely excited about it. Just a little disappointed that there won’t be a few more. AND they won’t be puttin’ out a hard copy either.
im just excited this is actually coming out whether or not ive heard some of these tracks or not. its not like these dudes were just sitting on their asses waiting for the album to come out, they gave us two dope mixtapes in the meantime and plenty of shows to attend.
sn: that penny hardaway needs to leak like right now
no wiz, big sean, or lil b? grazti!
Man I really hope they let me shoot a music video for this. I’ve taken a break from training water Buffalo. I’ve currently moved to teaching Fish how to ride bicycles just in case you guys are wondering.
GLjoe-ism at it’s finest!!!
Their story and LUPE’s story is more than enough motivation to stay independent. Be yo’ own boss and you won’t have to worry bout politics with people that don’t get your vision. Glad to hear they finally got a release date though.
