Hell Hath No Fury: Appreciation Post

Seriously, Lord Willin is nice but...sonically, lyrically it's NOT Hell Hath no Fury, it's so good that despite it's gritty street content, that it reached a very large audience of people who would never listen to hiphop let alone hardcore cocain rap, just because the production was so inventive and perfectly fit a the images the Thornton bros were trying to create.

Seriosuly middle aged white girls who have heard HHNF through my headphones and told me they loved that album, or my teacher hearing it and wanting to know what cd it was. IT'S THAT NICE.

The Neptunes are my fav musicians and I consider this album one of their greatest career achievements (because of how DIFFERENT it sounds from 95% of their catalogue aka "The Neptune Sound").

"Ride Around Shining" is one of the simplest/grimiest/darkest hip-hop beats I've ever heard...

& lyrically, The Brothers (ESPECIALLY Pusha) are > on this than LW...

Co-Sign... (To an extent)

But its STILL a VERY good album...

& I think Lord Willin' is OVERRATED on NT also...

LW = 4.5/5
HHNF = 4.66/5

"Hello New World" is only one of the best songs EVER tho...

Does 78 K in the first week qualify as a "large audience"? C'mon man, you making it seem like everyone and their mother listened to this who never listened to hip-hop and they didn't. The Clipse aren't A-list artists in hip-hop much less music, and they are popular among their hardcore fans, not the average dude who throws on music on the speakers. This album, is well done. But airmaxpenny and Harlem are right in saying it's a bit overrated on this forum.

"Peel money rolls until our thumbs get the paper cuts"

My personal favorite artists. They will NEVER be widely recognized. Kanye was on their first single for Till the Casket Drops and only did 31k in the first week. I try to put people on

Overrated on this forum? it's not only overrated by us I guess it's also overrated by the entire music writers community.

http://www.metacritic.com/music/hell-hath-no-fury

89/100 on meta critic, it was the 4th best rated album ANY GENRE, in 2006

http://www.metacritic.com...c&year_selected=2006

everybody, we all overrating it, it's if you don;t like it but putting the overrated stamp on just because you do get is silly.

also no rap album since it's release has better reviews.

I'm not saying these are some tome handed down by god, I'm just to pretend that it's only NIKETALK that thinks of this album this highly, you are fooling yourself.

Times-a-wasting, _'s doin so much hatin
Free ya heart, and show ya greatness
I, like you, had to come from up under the basement
Just like you, had Satan tryin my patience
Still you look at me through jealous eyes
I wish to see all my _'s rise up!
Get that money, put them 9s up
Piggy-back out the ghetto for times up!
_'S RUSH!

Funny I remember a lot of NT hating on the Pharrell's production of this album when it first released.

Anyways, great album.

Pitchfork also rated this album a 9.1
