honestly, i aint really feelin' this album. i like 'get em high' (feat. kweli and common) and 'two words' (feat. mos def), and of course the two singles ('through the wire' and 'slow jamz') and 'all falls down', but i dont really think its the classic everyone is making it seems like it is. i like kanye's production skills like on kweli's 'get by' and alicia keys 'you dont know my name', but as lyricist, i aint feelin' his rhymes. the lyrics are catchy, but after awhile, they become corny. but i admit, i did chuckle at 'oh baby your breath is harsh, cover up your mouth like you got sars'. but, after awhile, the beats get reptitive, the whole gospel/choir hook used a lot, and like i said, he doesnt punch through with his lyrics. so, thats my 2 cents on 'college dropout'.

I agree completely, but other than that, it's a generally decent listen.

I feel a couple 'whoos' comin on cuz..

Damn, listening to the CD, I can now hear that he actually rapped "Through the Wire" *while* his jaw was wired shut! :Q That's wild...

I couldn't ever really tell from listening to the song on the radio.... damn

Tonedeff owns them all.

Go check out "Champion", "Monotony", "Heavyweight", "The Book of the Dead", etc..

Very good songs with sensible lyrics.

Have you heard Twista's album yet? Listen to the song Art and Life, it's sick. Kanye supplies the hot beats and Twista unloads the lyrical firepower. IMO, Twista would lyrically murder anyone on the scene right now sides Eminem...

I'm sorry Tondeff can murder Twista in both flow and lyrics. Twista can rap fast, but half of wat he raps about is nonsense.

Don't believe me? Go listen to the songs I mentioned in my previous post. But I concede that Tonedeff doesn't have the best beats in his tracks, but his flow & lyrics more than makes up for it.

Here are some lyrics:

Heavyweight - Tonedeff

The premises get vacated?The millisecond I kill the several ****** that play jaded/
Within the record I chill the tepid temperatures they?ve created/
With their pitiful minimal efforts to make statements,
I spit on em - got em shellin out money to cover their late payments/
Cause they?re way dated, these dumb mother****ers have never paid dues, believing that they?ve MADE it/
For as long as I'm repping intelligent lyrics I figure I?ll stay hated
But my mindframe is to remain patient/
With ****** posing about as hard as stipper's nipples on stage naked/
Yo, I can?t take it, I?m keeping em plummeting toward the bottom like stocks that?s daytraded/
Net-fiasco?s, Get these *******?s Fates Tainted/
Flamin' and relocating just like gay vagrants/
Tone slays giants, like my legal name?s David/
What I say?s Blatant, no apologies necessary to glaze the game blazing/
Touch overdubs or change the phrasing/
Lyrically maintaining/ jugular vein?s straining/
Tonedeff adds to the pressure with bass so deep that it makes your brains cave in.
I?ll break it down for the laymen, for the ****** that ain?t acing the basic training/
My rations got their trays swaying/
Galleries use my verses for Page framing/
Cause, hey I stay flagrant with lyrics nastier than Tammy Faye bathing/
Keep comp shook like a charter plane when it?s raining/
I stay fat on the underground like there was a buffet up in the main bassment/
Sometimes I be slaying for entertainment/
Cause yo, Im outclassing most mother****ers, without ever having to weigh in.

Turn It Up - Tonedeff

See, now I'd bet a ****in G, you prolly thinkin', now, who the **** is this misfit/
Proving something on this mix, Dude this must be a misprint
True, im bumpin this list, trick, move, I'm snuffing these ***** kids
Y'all ****** is bout as sweet as the nugget stuffed in them twix sticks
It's Tonedeff, the playa dat cuts through these suckas with swift lips
Clueless ****ers get wigs split, Rumors come but they're dismissed
Fooling us with a quick switch? Tuned to some other mix disc
Would be like finding Nas with the Blueprint bumping in his whip
Fools get dumped in a ditch, just rudely fronting like big fish
Now, print this, The Plague, *****, crews don't want it with this clique
You was hunting for tidbits, then you found the Archetype and
K-Slay, the playa with the most exclusive cuts in the bizness
My **** is a little bit more than the human tongue can omit
Hit floosies up where their slits drip, do this under their clit lids/
Columbian & Cuban blood under this skin,
Who can touch the description of a psuedo-super-pun with a slim trim/
I'm - the new and improved functioning whiz with Luger-lungs/
And the fitness to the deliver the most brutal bumps to these dim wits/
I'm Driven as if I threw a clutch in the stick shift/
One listen'll strip 30 years from your life, ****, music this comes with a pension/
Intensive, administration of a million tooth-puncturing pin-pricks
From all of your minions to the bastard who fronts your equipment/
Disaster soon comes in a instant
To ***** virtual tools, like Lara Croft with a two guns tucked in her middrift/
Dig this busted youth becoming so twisted/
Kids'll request Smilez & Southstar more than the true 100 percent ****/
QN5 is the governing imprint/
That's bludgeoning oppostition with the indifference of a grandmother who would smother an infant/
I'll leave you stunned as I come to admit this/
Yo, son, nah, really?.you're nice?and J.Lo's *****'s a wonderful Christian/
I'm adjusting my lenses? ****** really looked thug from a distance/
But the minute you come close, you see the slump in their limp wrist /
And I'm plugging your chick, dig? it's nothing tremendous/
See?I loan her the ****, and you're stuck with the interest/
Her lust won't allow her to front or resist this/
Stiff dick that so big, that Tonedeff get counted as a couple in the census/
Punch with a clenched fist, rupturing defenses, till your only fear is survival/
I will spit scriptures that embarrass the bible/
Go ahead, spit, You're still wearing the title? Then back it's back to your place/ I'll say you're wack to your face, faster than simon from American Idol.

notice how he incorporated Lara Croft in there? lol..don't expect rappers to mention that.

Champion - Tonedeff

Everybody, Count it down with me now, here we go again with some of the dirtiest words/
You?ve heard, but couldn?t discern, cause most of the **** that I spit is a blur/
Certainly. But, Observing me once, isn?t really serving me any justice/
So, bust this extraordinary functional display of the tongue-twist/
Some of these punk bi*ch kids that's thinkin they?re rockin and rolling hard/
Are really the fakest imposters. They?ve never strolled the yard/
They?re bragging that they got a stolen car/
They get in the way, then I?m running ?em over dog, oh, It?s on/
They?re getting their faces torn off - with pure resolve - Sayin, I?m sure is all, kid/
You wanna get burned? Talk ****. Steppin to Tonedeff?s like trying to run without learning to crawl, bi*ch!
Y?all is thoughtless. Cause if you?re determined to fall, I recommend that you stall a bit
Cause, sonny, I?ve mastered all of it: from the hottest bars to spit, to the introduction shouts that?s up at the this start of this/
Listen, if anyone doubts the kid, they gotta to be flogged & whipped just like a fu*kin? Sodomist/
Non-Stop till the apocalypse hits, regardless, son, if you give it up or call it quits/
Your coffin ditch is dug, by Mr. SOS & Tonedeff-inite the great/
Wait! Hearing the words come outta my mouth is makin? ya **** on yourself just like a weapon in your face/
Step into my space, buddy ya better be asking me to flow or get performances/
Sonny, I?m earning my stars with about a half-a galaxy to go till it?s over with/
(Holy ****!) Yes, you love it, don?t ya, baby! Open Wide! Scoop it all! Swallow to the balls/
And I?m followed through the malls, because the gift of my flow is ****in polished to a fault/
Astonishing awestruck crowds, leaving a city with hardly a jaw shut ? How? /
Well, I?m abolishing the laws of sound, nobody figured would ever fall till just now/
Touchdown, better go chalk up another landslide to the QN5 side/
Nobody?s sick as the kid. You can bet your man?s life, cause it?s lose or die time/
Prove it nine times outta ten - you can see me then over 182 bpms/
Doin the 16th notes, or even the 24-syllable speedy flow, and I?ll concede, yo.
But till that day arrives, son, I?ma stay alive, because the way I grind?s really a state of mind/ And even in base design - I never strain to rhyme. If anyone take my lines, kid, it?s a waste of time/
Because at Point Blank, no one can?t spit ?em with this critical flair & shear sickness/
It?s Tonedeff - BEST FLOW IN THE GAME. If the world?s listening, bare witness. Yes

Love Ain't - Tonedeff

Love ain't for the faint of heart. Start Training, this game is hard/
And arduous, You're gonna play in the dark like when it rains in the park/
You're hardly conscious of the stains and scars, enabling your partly clouded logic/
To pay to impart bliss with arrangements of chocolates/
Now, You're working yourself out the same as when you strain with a nautilus/
And you're willing to embrace pain facing sustained negative consequence/
If nothing you say when in love is embedded with common sense/
Then, do you really regret when you've shredded your promises?/
Now, I've tested the waters, kid. Sipped it; rippled the pond a bit/
Visits have been abolished, and this ****'s killing my confidence/
Is this filling your conscience when distance is an accomplishment?/
If you miss chicks when they're around, the phrase "Let's quit" isn't an option/
You best fix whatever's wrong and just move on and get on with it/
Cause, You'll catch bigger fish in the sea if you manage not to drown in it/
It's sad, but proud or not, most your standards go down a notch/
When loneliness drinks at the bar you set too high,
Cause, It isn't really my time, is it? ****...I just found the watch/
But hearing the bell toll for me twice a day, has me fearing my grandfather clock/
And I can't die without trying. My hands tied in knots/
Knowing that I'll never learn to brave the waves if I stand by the docks/
Love is hampered by thought, if you can handle the prospect of
Death - it's as massive a shock. And To intellects, it's a fuc*in' smack in the crotch/
It's a cancer that rots your soul, tosses demons off of the road/
Just use caution and know, that, love ain't nothing but a loss of control.

You should hear the ORIGINAL version of Through the Wire if you think the CD version is bad.

I never thought it was bad, I think it's great! There were things he had to get off his mind and he didn't let the wired jaw get in the way.

What was teh original version like, more mumbled??
