Damn this shit is just as sick if not better than the first 4 in this series, Can't wait for Free Agent to drop.
PS actually go out and cop this album my dudes, even if you don't cop other albums. This nigga Joell actually gives back to his hood with the money he makes, he doesn't forget his roots
this dude is to nice

he MIGHT be the second coming of Pun.
hot track...
chill ass beat. Joell spits dat fire. how is dis nigga not signed!?! been waitin for anotha ill latin rapper since Pun passed away R.I.P
I hope when his album comes out it sells a milli in the first weeks so the world will know that True Hip Hop still reigns supreme... Im not dissin any style im just sayin we need to define the genre's like rock & roll. And this is True Hip Hop..
this bullshit player keeps freezing the browser,change it to the old one
this is too smooth crazy lines hes the future !!!! point blank !!!!
Damn Dis Shit Iz Tight!!
every time i hear a song from him it takes u back to the 90s/early 2000s
damn he really went in on this track
i dont think theres many people that are even close to his level of lyricism
CRACK!!!!
this is a REAL NEW YORK NIGGA
not niggas like MIMS
iwanna c a coast 2 coast mixtape w/ him n Crooked I
these the verses off top of the charts
type in top of the charts. the beat is better.
yea i knew i heard this shit before....this nigga recycled like a mothafucka.....H-Town stand up
ahhh yess it felt like church on a sunday... I hope u lil niggas was listening to what talent really is!!!! Joell Ortiz DL that bodega Chronicles this is hip hop!!!!! not that snap dance shit u lil muthafuckers OD off !! 1 ~ turning da lights low, drinking an Ol'Gold and Vibeing, Holla bitches!!!~
nice
the OJ line was sick. joell is a great rapper because his lyrics have substance and consequences. peace
wheres parts 1-4? lol...joell is nice...gud thing he left AM otherwise he wouldnt have released an album...even tho him and bishop could have been fire together...
This is definitely some grown up shit...not dance music for da kids. Brooklyn does produce the best rappers...BK*bullshyt718 is right: Big, Lil Cease and Kim and them used to run wit Pac, in Brooklyn. Only a couple good rappers came outta Houston and nothing can be said about Houston rappers unless you talk about Scarface. Scarface is the ONLY rapper outta Houston wit the calliber to even compare lyrical ability to niggas like Jay-Z, Papoose, Joell, etc...HIP HOP IS BACK BABY!!!
does ANYONE know where to dl the instrumental??
fuckin A - dre fucked up !
Dre's probably the best producer in Hip Hop BUT he NEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVEEERRRRRRRRRR should've droped Joel. If I was Amalgam I'd sign Joel with the quickness and let him an Joe Budden drop fire all day.
Dre neva dropped joell, joell left cuz dre wanted to push detox n eminem's album before his. So joell left, and its not da first time dre screwed up a sick mc with dere album(raekwon, rakim, n now joell).
Yo he madddddddd underrated....he tyte as a bitch 4 real.(period) R.E.A.L. talk
