Review:

This was when Ye was in his bag of beats. This Album and that Teyana Taylor "K.T.S.E." Album was fire. Then Ye ran out of beats when he got to NAS "NASIR" Album. I'm just being honest. Ye kept those beats for Kid Cudi and himself. And let me not blame Ye for the beats NAS maybe have selected himself. NAS has terrible taste in beats. YES! I'm saying it.

Terrence LeVarr Thornton, better known as Pusha T, has been rapping, songwriting and record producing for some time now. Also, recognized as half of one of the BEST TWO MAN GROUPS ever with the "CLIPSE" DAYTONA project was the BEST album YE did during that summer.

TWIN brother formally known as "Malice", now, "No Malice" who sometimes raps. I believe he is retired, but I heard him on 2019's Erick Sermon's Album "Vernia" on track five called "Go". He's currently a published author. Check out his book, "Wretched, Pitiful, Poor, Blind and Naked".

In 2010, PUSH joined reigns with legendary rapper/producer Kanye West's GOOD Music imprint, under the umbrella of Def Jam Recordings. In March or 2011, Pusha released his first SOLO project/mixtape called, "Fear of God". Then he released his DEBUT solo album, "My Name is My Name" in October of 2013. In 2015 Mr. Thornton was appointed by YE as president of GOOD Music and released "Darkest Before Dawn: The Prelude" in December. Then in 2018, he released this "Classic" Album all produced by Kanye. He's been a busy man. Hopefully, he drops something his year.

Pusha grew up in Virginia Beach, Virginia, but born in The Bronx borough of New York City. His twin brother Gene and himself both sold drugs during there youth. In 1992, that's when they both pursued a career in Hip-Hop, developing the group we all know now as the Clipse. If you haven't discovered he discography, please add it to the other list of records I be telling y'all about. #FACTS

When the Clipse was formed, the group shortly were introduced to at the time a young hungry producer, named Pharrell Williams of the now legendary group The Neptunes. Mr. Williams secured a record contract with Elektra Records in 1997. They only dropped one single called, "The Funeral" and then the album was shelved and they were dropped. We need to hear that album. This is when Pusha's rap name was, "Terrar". Now I get it. Terrar (Terror) & Malice!

In 2001, Pharrell signed the group to Arista Records with his "Star Trak" imprint. This is when their lives changed. There first debut single was "Grindin'!" Did you hear me? GRINDIN'!!!!!! One of the hottest records to this day. Then after their second single, "When the Last Time" peaked at #19, it was time to put out the Album "Lord Willin" on August 20, 2002. This album debuted at #1 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Album chart and #4 on Billboard 200, leading to GOLD status by October 1, 2002.

In 2003, Clipse began recording for their second album, "Hell Hath No Fury". They had more issues with labels prior to owning their own, but I'm not going to dive into based of boredom. Go check out all of the Clipse albums and all of his solo joints. He's worked with some of the elite MC'S already in the industry and he's still one of the deadliest MC's to date currently. Pusha's pen game is one of the most incredible to date. I'd like whoever is reading this, to name 10 other MC's that can go bar for bar with PUSH. Comment below!

ALBUM RATING: 5 MICS!!!!!

The production was top notched. The content and bars from PUSH were incredible. Pusha put all those top notched beats in a headlock until they spoke #HipHopClassic. If you think different, I challenge conversation below or on my YouTube.

Thanks for reading and I hope to see you on my YouTube as a subscriber.
