JR Writer, Hell Rell & 40 Cal - The Upstage [Album]

[Peep Game]

"The core Dipset members" dropped 'Diplomatic Ties', so on that same night, JR Writer, Hell Rell, and 40 Cal decided to join the party and drop their own album called 'The Upstage' as well. Like what I heard from it. Tom Gist and A-Mafia appear on here as well.

these dudes shouldve done this forever ago...ish wild fire.

 

[WASPS ANDD ASPS]

Involved been on repeat

Seriously. Everybody came correct on here. Straight bars and hard beats, reminded me of More Than Music Vol 1 minus filler tracks

 

[Hahahaha]

Can't believe how polished it sounds. Thought it would be poor quality and laziness. This **** is fire. EASILY one of my favorite albums of the year.

 

[ninjahood]

a- mafia, most slept on dipset member ever.

 

[ineedacape]

haven't heard the dip album, but this upstage is fire, they should have added vado though

true.

 

[Hahahaha]

Vado was never in Dipset sooooo no.

I’ve played this album probably 12 times. This is one of my favorite albums this year. I still can’t believe how good it is.

 

[ninjahood]

Vado was never in Dipset sooooo no.

he technically was, that UN ish was a proxy for da set, same as skullgang & byrdgang was.

 

[Peep Game]

Skull Gang was so trash. And nah, other than having everyone together, the only other people that could have been added were Jha Jha ( ) and Bezel.

 

[Hahahaha]

Yeah but him and Cam were after Dipset. He wasn't on none of the Dipset albums. We good and I'm a Vado fan but no thanks

 

[Magic33]

Vado wasn't in Dip Set

Vado was an affiliate. Like a Shyhiem or Sunz of Man. He didn't pop up until Cam and Jim were on the outs. That's like saying Max B was Dip Set.

max b was jackin dipset....

byrdgang/dipset

vado was Un/dipset

and da way dipset works these days, everoeve who isn't juelz, cam, or Jim is a affiliate, that includes stalwarts like Unkasa, 40 cal, hell rell, jr writer, etc.

 

[Magic33]

Hell Rell & Un Kasa (Volume 1)
JR and 40 (Volume 2)

The rest are like Shyhiem, Killah Priest, Killarmy and Sunz Of Man

wu affiliations aren't as tied close as da dipset ones... would be my only gripe with ur comparison because to just cite da albums instead of looking at da mixtape lineage omits tooo much.

max b, sen city, vado, stack bundles, etc. hold more weight ala Cappadonna w/ da wutang.

 

[Peep Game]

Max B and Mel Matrix were on More Than Music Vol 2

Haven’t heard from Tom Gist since 07, but he released an EP back in July called Better Days:

 

[Magic33]

Max B and Mel Matrix were on More Than Music Vol 2

by then they were done as a unit. Juelz and Jim both had their problems with Cam.

That's where Duke came in and it became a compilation.

Still one of my favorites

[debso]

[htg designs]

[WASPS ANDD ASPS]

Revisited both Vol 1 and Vol 2 and that’s pretty much the same vibe I get with Upstage. They did a really good job with this. They never lost bars, but I’m really impressed with the production cause I figured it would be cheap sounding, but it’s legit.

Man I'ma need to peep this!
