This was the best of the remix’s that Montana did imo, but he was on fire for a little while there. Wish he could have converted it in to a good album or two, but he only ever seemed to be really good on other people’s beats.

How come nobody seems to do remix’s like this anymore? It used to be a whole thing but I feel like I don’t see it any more. Maybe I’m just out of touch.

Same actually. I was surprised to see he had an album out as recently as 2018 and a single in 2022. Glad he is still making music, was for sure something I enjoyed when I was younger. And now, but P.O.S. was a big part of my listening in ~2007 haha

I get that. I can’t sit and just listen to him on a loop like I can some artists, but in moderate doses he is dope. Still has room to grow as an artist too I think.

I feel like I’ve been hearing about that collab for a year now. I’d be psyched if it came out but I feel like it might have ended up in a vault somewhere.

This is a point I wish more people understood. People say rap glorifies this street stuff (and it does) and that is why there is so much street violence in some places. But art doesn’t create reality, it reflects it. People make art about what they know and what they see, so of course they rap about it.

There are exceptions, dudes who didn’t grow up in that life rapping about it, but that is again a reflection of their life. These are guys who were big in to Hip Hop who created art mirroring what they grew up with, which is rap about a violent life style. They are also the exception, not the rule I feel.

Pulled this dude up on Spotify because I liked this song. Song titles are on point.


EDIT: Went through his top 5 on Spotify. Dude can actually spit. Didn’t like SJW with the weird high pitch whiny voice, but overall solid stuff. Not just a gimmick. Kill Your Local Racist was my favorite.

That piano on the beat sounds so fucking good. Great find

Probably my second favorite track after listening through the whole thing. Top spot goes to Bitch Please II, because Nate Dogg on the hook was always amazing.

Excellent choices. I miss album covers. I listen to pretty much everything on Spotify now and my phone is usually in my pocket or on a side-table so I never actually see the artwork anymore. I should make an effort to actually take a look.
