hard to say but like the law of nature what goes up most come down. you can't reign for ever (can't rap or play football professionally forever). and sadly Modo has started his downward spiral.

M.I.'s like a breath of fresh air. tight lines...almost on every other joint. truth be said I've been a Modo fan from way back, got all his albums (except for this DaVinci and the free ish he did with Kraft), but i'm getting sick of the style. the paradigm shift was kinda drab...really dissappointing. my favourite songs were crazy ft Mallam Spicey and follow your heart ft Eve. nothing fresh in his style, b-boy clothing is played out. almost wanted to puke when i saw the Vinci album cover. bad man wasn't all that despite all the promo...the video sef was wack. i'd rather bump crazy ft Mallam Spicey anytime any day. worse still wonder why he doesn't want to push out his really good work...1)why didn't things fall apart ft Toni Blackman & Sage Hasson & Eve Urrah make da Vinci tracklist. and how about the pidgin English nothing dey happen remix song with 2face?

Im not gonna lie , Paradigm shift had its ups and downs...but i have given this album a full listen for a few weeks and mode9 has given us another reason y it wud take m.i another 5 to 6 mixtapes to step up to him... M.i is jus wordplay but dont get me wrong...he has amazing flow ...crazy word play..but come to think of it.....wat kind of wordplay that m.i wud do and mode9 cant?? think bout it...he is the grandfather for a reason... the highlights of this album ...
soul to keep
we at it again
we dey vex ( this is straight fire !!!)

apopyalips and kaydee if you looked at things objectively and without bias it wouldn't be hard for you to see why "M.I.'s like a breath of fresh air. tight lines...almost on every other joint."

that's the problem with guys, always hating. same way a lot you guys were hating on SauceKid back then in 2006 http://www.africanhi...php?f=18&t=8100 . dude has proved his worth several times over since.

[Meyer Lansky Ent]

Traez i dont expect you at this level to call opinions hate.....there is nothing like hate...even the sauce Kid you are tlking about still is yet to drop an album...i surely agree with you that he has proved his worth, but TO ME he aint worth my two cents....

Objectively, how do u mean? why post up something that happened in 2006, common this is 2010? have u heard that sauce kid said on his twitter page that tyger of cash money is better than Nas? whatever meyn, u're not a hiphop head or a hiphop fan, i heard ya music back then, we don't have anything in common in terms of the artists and the type of music we like. your statement is null cos this is a hiphop forum and you don't understand what hiphop is.

@Enigma: i feel u man, word!

i think Mike Okri derepped himself in the video. he's respected as a great Naija musician singing positive stuff...fooling around with little girls was just kinda sick. oh well, nice flow, nice chorus, nice beat and nice vid. one!

actually, this was one of ya comments there. lol. and if u check well, i didn't hate em on the thread and the posts u thought were hate posts were actually constructive criticism. AHH ain't the only place people air out their views about artists in their place. Most of em cats like Enigma,zero,etc stopped coming here cos of shit likethis. M.I is good, prove it, at list with his lyrics. dudes' lyrics lack substance and he never improve, that's ma opinion same with any other person out there that listens and understand hiphop. peace

i've been on this forum for years and truth is many guys are till date incapable of constructive criticism...lack objectivity when they talk, completely biased. no respect, running their mouth on people who even in a thousand years they couldn't step to. it's like the little kids on Nairaland/radio who can't even feed themselves for a day talkling ill about Tony Tetuila when he had some problems with a business project overseas.

The Zero you quote though knowledgeable is one guy with a big ego and a heavy bias. has been served humble pie several times over on most of his past utterances.

M.I. speaks for himself. enough said. peace!

too bad how sentimental we are here,how can somebody say this lp's one of nine's best,straight crap with bunch of wack punchlines, still we keep heaping praises kuz we re so blinded to see that dude's fading fast,nothing to write home abt, even the ''we dey vex'' track was below standard.it's really fucked kuz at this momnt dark poet makes sense to me mre than nine.

[apopyalips]
