I read a Guru interview and he sounded bitter of not getting as much recognition as Primo. <br />Same kind of thing happens outside the rap world, though. It's a human relations problem I think.PYL.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00972924296203246851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420176845224246684.post-12531731976342667332007-01-16T17:44:00.000-05:002007-01-16T17:44:00.000-05:00I liked "T.I.M.E". better than "A Future Without A...I liked "T.I.M.E". better than "A Future Without A Past", too. That doesn't change the fact that each emcee on every track of T.I.M.E. is overly aware of themselves on each song and trying to overshine instead of blending in seamlessly together like they did on their 1st album (Dinco is arguably the star of this album as he and Brown step up the lyrics 150% from last LP). <br /><br />I absorbed myself in it fully when I first bought the tape back in 1993 as an 18 year old battle emcee...I said the same thing heads at The Source, Rap Pages, and random cats on the street said about the album...that they weren't TOGETHER on it and I expect them to break up soon. You can always tell the pre-break up album if you really listen. Even to Equinox, That's Them and similar projects.

Milo's rhymes were amazing, Dinco's bars were stronger, Busta's lyrical peak was finally met and Charlie B's style found a home between silly and serious. The EAST COAST STOMP levels on this disc remain high even in 07.<br /><br />Listen again....really absorb yourself in it. PEACED.L.
