I assume you're talking about old school Three Six (same era as No Limit). Their later stuff, like Most Known Unkown definitely had a much more polished sound.

I personally think this was the best cut Three Six ever put to tape.



As for No Limit, I think a lot of those guys (and Mia X of course) could easily go toe-to-toe with a lot of the rappers that are popular today in terms of their ability to rap. I supposed it help that their beats almost always went hard. No Limit also really mastered posse cuts as a means to cross-promote.



It's interesting when you're talking about most peoples' views on groups like Three Six, No Limit, and Cash Money retrospectively. I suppose it is unlikely you're going to see a publication like Rolling Stone or Pitchfork do glowing retrospectives on Ice Cream Man or Chopper City in the Ghetto, but I'd bet that if you were talking to big fans of the genre, there's going to be serious respect for what those guys achieved. I gotta say though, as for why Cash Money eclipsed No Limit, I think a lot of it had to with Mannie Fresh's production chops - like man, I still love this tune.

I’m gonna go with an unusual cup is “half” full optimism on this one.

Especially considering those have mostly been allocated for the elderly that’s a lot less future deaths. March should really look like a new day.

Go Team Biden!

Lends new meaning to the phrase living in a cardboard box, huh?

I remember hearing about the prospect of 3D printed housing in China years ago. Kind of surprised to see this happen in Mexico. Is it really cheaper to print a house than to build it the old fashioned way?
