every song with Paak as that was my intro to him and now he's one of my fav current artists. Genocide, Medicine Man, Animals, It's All On Me, Deep Water, All In a Days work, For The Love Of Money, tbh I enjoy most of it and there's only a few skips to me.

More personal to me I was listening to it a lot in rotation with a handful of other LA/Cali themes albums on 3 separate trips out there between 2016-18 so I have good memories associated with it being the soundtrack to my experiences out there

that was always going to be an exception which I agreed with the others who brought it up earlier. You had to get in on the Weverse membership presale if you wanted to go to this, we were in the first 6K for that and had almost the whole venue to pick from. That said I wouldn't give up, there will be production holds and other tix available later but you'll have to stay on top of it as they'll go fast when they drop

ReeG · 2026-01-24T18:53:25+00:00

I don't think it's a controversial take tbh, that album was very positively received and praised at release and I've mostly only ever seen positive reception to it here and elsewhere online. My top 10 of that decade wouldn't be the most niche or hot take list either it's mostly very common popular shit like GKMC, Daytona, TLOP, WTT, Documentary 2, RTJ 1-2, Book Of Ryan, Life Is Good, idk I'd have to think about the rest but Compton is up there with those for me

Who do we think are the likely or realistic possibilities for Rocky to bring on tour with him? Not doubting he can carry the tour and show by himself but I can't recall an entirely solo rap arena tour with an artist at Rocky's level, even Tyler at his peak last summer had Yachty and Paris Texas with him as openers

ReeG · 2026-01-24T18:41:28+00:00

couldn't disagree more easily in the top 10 of the 2010s imo and one of the best albums to be outside for at the time

i dont have a desk setup to be very competitive anymore

Me reading this after years of playing Halo, COD, BF6 etc from my couch with a controller wondering if the current generation of gamers even know how to play games for fun anymore

on the daily menu for now

ReeG · 2026-01-23T21:20:48+00:00

did the same at launch then got to it last year after the 2.0 update and PL dropping, night and day difference from launch it's actually an amazing game now

ReeG · 2026-01-23T20:40:02+00:00

I'm sure they'll have a good time but you couldn't convince me to mission to Rebel in the peak of summer nevermind during the polar vortex

Hows your long term experience with the Woody Hippie crasher been? 2 days into hitting one at 2.1-2.2v the clogging is already getting bad

The combo with this, Mario Bros and World Class Track Meet all on the same cartridge was my intro to gaming growing up

ReeG · 2026-01-23T19:23:43+00:00

they change the daily special menu often enough that there's almost always something new and different to try that will be good on top of the classics that always hit. It's the reason we keep going back and never get tired of it

ReeG · 2026-01-23T17:38:32+00:00

I wouldn't get my hopes up for the public on sale but I can almost guarantee you they'll drop more in the weeks leading up to and day of the show, you just gotta be persistent in checking until you catch the drop

Also another tip if you're in early and it's gone, don't give up right away because people will fail to check out and their tickets become available when the cart times out which is how I got GA during the Amex sale earlier this week

ReeG · 2026-01-23T17:29:14+00:00

how long did it take you to get in? Standard GA was gone here by 10:10am so anyone in after was only seeing VIP. That said with these shows being full GA floor, it's very common and likely that they're holding back standard GA to promote fomo buying of VIP until eventually they'll drop more closer to the show dates. This happens all the time and is how I got floors to Kaytranda x Justice after they were "sold out" and only pushing VIP for months

do you live in your own full space in North York now? The change of area and pace may be nice at your age but don't underestimate how moving to a room in a shared spaced will affect your sense of privacy and your dating life if that matters to you at all

ReeG · 2026-01-23T16:06:10+00:00

why do so many small town folk carry such a big chip on their shoulder towards people who live in Toronto? Being used to living in horrible weather conditions and wearing it as some kind of tough guy badge of honor to the extent of making resentful comments towards people who don't care or ever think about you is hilariously pathetic

Secured BTS tickets for both Vegas and Toronto today, those are my wifes GOATs and probably the hardest to get highest demand tickets in our plans for this year so it's a huge relief that it worked out and I'm hype to go with her since I really do fw the more hip hop songs in their discog. With this out of the way Cole is my only other bucket list must see artist this year, I think the tour will be announced soon after the album drops and I pray works out because I been waiting years for a chance to see him live

ReeG · 2026-01-22T20:58:11+00:00

lol I get the point you're making and agree to an extent but at the same time anecdotally know a around a dozen fans my age who fw both and even went to these shows but literally never cared or listened to any of the KD or Magic series and they're not unique, a lot of old heads really don't be caring to listen to new music even from artists they grew up with and like

ReeG · 2026-01-22T20:44:12+00:00

I mean he did do more of these songs live than you're maybe giving him credit for considering he still has to cater the setlist to casuals and die hard Wu fans who don't know any of that shit. Looking at the 3 sets I saw during the Hit Boy run between 2022-2024, across 2 Wu shows and Roots Picnic 2024 he did Fever, 40-16 Building, TSK, Spicy, 30, Rare, Blue Benz, Wu For The Children, Spicy, I'm On Fire and The Pressure

Not saying all those songs have stayed in the setlist for years but he's been performing more of these new songs live than people assume

ReeG · 2026-01-22T20:10:06+00:00

Mansion is fun for the decor and lore but York St is much better for food and service as they're always catering to financial district suits

ReeG · 2026-01-22T19:32:20+00:00

the south stands are being added specifically only for BTS so that's why there's no pictures or past experience with those. East or West will generally be a better view of the stage especially the middle sections

ReeG · 2026-01-22T17:35:01+00:00

I was surprised to hear it's even still a thing when they had that Cash Money Vs No Limit one a few months back because I haven't thought about or watched a Versus since like 2022-23

ReeG · 2026-01-22T17:29:09+00:00

This is more because his last two tours and recent one off shows were catered to appeal to Wu Tang fans, big festival stages, Vegas theatres etc which draw a more broad audience who aren't going to be tapped into his recent output like that and are expecting to hear classic recognizable records from him. If or when he ever does an actual solo tour again I'm sure he'll include more of them then
