Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!

With all the controversy around the latest VIBE magazine issue with Eminem on the cover, one important thing has gotten lost in the sauce. That’s right, YN’s return to print with the extremely rare freelance byline. Ha! Yup, in a package of the great rap albums of 1998, I reflected on two of the biggest: Jay-Z’s breakthrough Vol. 2… Hard Knock Life and DMX’s rap game-changing It’s Dark and Hell is Hot. I chose the one on the dog to share since it has the crazy personal backstory of me gettin’ to know a gentlemen named Irving Lorenzo. That’s guy’s always been loud. No Monopoly games.
Sidebar: Oh for all you list fanatics, VIBE got another one in the issue to piss you off. They ranked the Top 50 albums of 1998. And surprisingly, the Dog got the bronze medal. I’ll let you guess what two are above him. Or get off your ass and get to a newsstand. A boost counts as a sale. But you didn’t hear it from me.
wordup..
songs he was bumpin’ while committing those crimes.

Either did the winnner (Outkast) Or even Jay. The 2 best albums of 1998: Blackstarr and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. I would put Blackstarr as a personal fave, but Vibe shoulda put Ms. Hill as number one. And 98 aint have no where near 50 classics. I mean, Can-I-Bus is on that list. Seriously? Canibus? Yup.
“a boost count as a sale”? for real? Nice, now I dont have to feel bad for “not supporting” your run at xxl man(I think I have all of your issues). And I no longer have to feel like I participated in the downfall of Mass Appeal either…
Miseducation is barely hip hop, and hasn’t aged well. Black Star is great, it’s what got me seriously into hip hop, but it’s not as good as Aquemini. Capital Punishment is also very solid.
The Source fell off when they didnt give “Its Dark & Hell Is Hot” 5 mics. & that dude is a clown who said Miseducation hasnt aged well. its one of the best albums of all time.
