Styles P. Tracklist for Master of Ceremonies

I just saw this tracklist posted up on a few sites for SP's latest. I've seen a few different dates in October, but it's looking like the 4th is it now. Honestly, I care nothing about the features aside from track 6. Though, Pharoahe just may end up doing the hook again, which would be disappointing to me - not that "My Life" isn't dope.

Styles P. is, in my opinion, the most talented of The LOX, so I'm always interested to see what he puts together. By the way, if you're interested in hearing a collection of some of his older stuff, check out the DJ Kay Slay-hosted mixtape that was put out, shit, nearly a decade ago now. I think it's just called The Best of Styles P. (if not, you'll be seeing an update below tomorrow morning). I still pull it out once in a while. It's a great listen.

What do you think of this tracklist??

Pharoahe Monch, Styles P, & Phonte - Black Hand Side

First, let me just say that having Phonte on a track with Pharoahe Monch and SP and just singing is...well, like having Pharoahe Monch featured on a Slaughterhouse track and just doing the hook. It's kinda shitty to leave fans hanging like that. You know what we want...bars.

That being said, this track is nice and I hope all of you are planning to support W.A.R. when it comes out on March 22nd.

The Green Ghost

So, who's heard the new Styles P./Green Lantern mixtape, The Green Ghost Project? Thoughts?

I just finished listening to it for the second time. Overall, I like it. SP has always been my favorite of The LOX. So, even though their sound gets kinda old after a while, I can usually check out some of his new stuff. Jadakiss seemed to have the breakout star power in the beginning, to some extent. But, several lukewarm albums kind of deaded that, in my opinion. Styles always had solid bars. This new mixtape is good. But, it doesn't compare to my favorite collection of his material, The Best Of Styles P hosted by the incredibly loud and annoying DJ Kay Slay. Even he couldn't bring down this collection of great material.

The Green Ghost Project offers more of the same, but if you like SP, you'll like this one too. Though he makes a few attempts to depart from the hardcore and make some softer R&B tracks, and it doesn't really work out. Also, I'm always surprised when multiple wack rappers appear on an album, let alone one song. This is what happened on "Pablo Doe" with both Noreaga and Uncle Murda, two guys that are painfully bad at what they do for a living. I'm shocked I was able to make it through the whole song. They might as well put Tony Yayo on there to round it out.

Anyway, that's what I listened to today. Check it out if you haven't yet. Let me know what you think.
