In 1996 Rhythm D produced this album starring Fred Fonk and R&B. The duo known as "Me and My Cousin"! Let's revisit this album as I haven't heard it in way over 20 years. Is it a classic? Or nah? Let's give it a spin!

I just got into Paperboy "The Nine Yards" album again. I love bumping my head to this and relax to this addictive making album (at least for me lol) That's a cool coincidence you talk about a Rythm D produced album now. Never heard of it before. First track in and it sounds pretty good

Carefull! It's a long comment on this album. I just finished this video and feel about the album like this: something like 3 Mics with a tolerance of +- 0.5 mics. But most likely + or just 3. The instrumentals are really appealing to me and the vocals, flow and the general soundscape this album has to offer sound really nice too. Sure a little more versatility would be nice as I thought as example that the duo sings a little more or something like that. Still the hooks are nice. The lyrical content was enough. I am not really the lyrics guy: as example I didn't pay much attention to those in the video. But when I heard those there are no special attributes about these that differ much from the other MC's in that era. But kudos for having clean lyrics like that. If you don't need to curse than let it be. They still sounded cool. Yet I am pretty sure this album has some nice lines I just missed. Idk For me there isn't a song I where I thought "Ugh... that sucks...". It has its bangers and its relaxed songs but nothing really bad. But as you said (paraphrased can't remember exact words rn) "I feel robbed because I thought there are 16 songs but in the end there are 10 -12 because of the skits) I was thinking "You are right". The skits are nihil, nothing: not funny, not memorable nor do they have a appealing attribute. The ones where just an instrumental was playing were okay because I love me some Rythm D. In the end it is like 3 mics. Nothing too special but its soundscape is pretty good. I am a sucker for the 90's rap music so I am a little biased by albums like that. And Rythm D is a legend of a producer OTHER THAN THE SKITS THERE IS NOTHING REALLY TO HATE ABOUT. They did a nice job for me because 3 mics ≠ bad.

@@GangstaRapOdyssey thanks. And you nailed it too. I really like the idea with your report cards so I can see which songs you liked more and less. I am a little interested in how people like music, what they prefer and stuff like this. But of course I want to hear fire songs too by watching videos like yours. So please continue those videos because they entertain me. Oh and if I can give a wish of a album you give your opinion on. I wonder how you feel about "Lethal Injection". I really like this album but I heard other people saying the opposite.
