Gravediggaz - The Pick, the Sickle and the Shovel

Post by Philaflava »

Album received unfair criticism since Prince Paul was not apart of it. I happened to really enjoy it. The beats are dope and RZA has some show stealing lines.

You mean solo releases?If so, I think Life (2003) is the closest thing you are gonna get.

Dope indeed. Still prefer 6 Feet Deep, but this album was a worthy sophomore release from the group.

yeah that albulm was slept on, truss, the tunes I'm feeling the most from that albulm is 'Dangerous Mindz', 'Unexplained', '12 Jewelz', 'Fairytailz', 'Never Gonna Come Back', 'The Night The Earth Cried', 'Repentance Day' & 'Deadliest Biz', those tunes still get rinsed, truss me on that, I wish Rza could spit some of that '12 Jewelz' type of shit nowerdays you know, that cure type of shit you know, true stories

I remember not liking the album that much. But the night the earth cried was a gem.

I think i do. How do you upload a whole album

I can listen to Unexplained over and over and over it is that good. Every album they have they have at least 2 songs that are perfect tracks.

if you have an CD/R PC, put the CD in the CD-Rom then on the screen it will give you options, if you want to rip an play or not, pick the real player option(you can pick windows too it dosent matter), then it will save the CD to your PC, then right click on the actual abulm file thats been created, an pick compress to zip, if you have rar files, then do the same process but click on 'add to achive' to compress it, then go to megaupload.com an upload the zip file or the newly created rar file an upload, I hope that could help you out, if you could come through wit that albulm it would be much appreciated, truss

I liked the album, but compared to the first it was just to different and there were some weak tracks on it, I liked all of the tracks already mentioned and some others, but I just felt it could have been more.

"Bonus Tracks for Japan Only"
16. The Night the Earth Cried (Ultimatum Remix)
17. Unexplained (Kasz Mix)
18. The Night the Earth Cried (Diamond J Remix)

Fairytalez is probably my favorite song on the album and as for the above songs I would think that the Diamond J remix is better than the original imo, anyways... Enjoy. :wutang:

Let me break it down for you:

1st albm: Sprite-n-pizza roll scary story flashlight party fare for disaffected Commonwealth youth convinced their lives in the Estates somehow resemble a horror movie, yo!

2nd album: 5%er-driven, mature, reflective, socially conscious effort with lots of great beats and excellent flows.
