Lots of really good cuts on this album. I was dissapointed with this album when it came out originally but it has really aged well and I bump it now more thanI did back then. Production is

. Album is a solid 4/5.

Tip has really dropped a lot of good albums this decade, prolly has easily one of the best catalogue's of this decade.
 
i got to much caught in the hype machine around it when it was coming out instead of focusing on how good the album actually was.

I skip JUST to hear that verse. I knew I wasn't the only one buggin...

DJ Toomp is the man...
 
It's solid.

I think Urban Legend is the album that really doesn't get the recognition it deserves. I can barely skip a track on that joint.
 
Both Toomp tracks are disgusting...the rest is aiight. Not sure why he never made an all Toomp disc.

Why is Swizz always on his records?

at u not having I'm Straight on there...
B.G. SNAPED...

Okay now, now when I spit it, I spit it how I live it
Every verse I ever gave ya, it was fact, nothin' fiction
I'ma +Livin' Legend+.. no stuntin', no reppin'
You can check my track record, I'm highly respected
I'ma gangsta in the game, go ask Lil' Wayne
Ask Judge Johnson, how many times he saw my face
For, "pistol here, pistol there," "violation here, violation here"
Betta ask Rank, I ran the jail when I was there
I held it down, where-ever I go
When I'm in the A wit' the +King+, or in Detroit in the snow
I'ma pro, whether it's movin' snow or movin' 'dro
That's between me and you, I can get it for the low
But that's nuttin, everybody say they gotta story
Mine on "Larry King," theirs is on "Maury"
At the end of the day, it seems to won't go away
I guarantee +The Heart of the Streetz+ that you pray

...#%@! wasn't even fair...
 
my favorite T.I. album. One of the albums that turned the corner on the south for me

I'm just saying I remember a lot of people on this site especially hating on the alnbum and I was one of those.

2006.

and I'm Talking to You was crazy.

Trap Muzik, Urban Legend, and King are my favorite albums from T.I.
 
1) The "Live In The Sky" version with him singin' the hook is 10x better than the Jamie/"Hollywood" final cut.

2) His last verse on said song + "Act I" off "T.I. vs T.I.P." foreshadowed his recent legal predicament and proved that he truly is thecloset thing we have to 2Pac.

3) Yeah, I said that.

4) Goodnight.
 
This is the CD that put TIP in the upper echelon of rap artists for me. I had Urban Legend, but KING made me go back and get I'm Serious and Trap Muzik. Ithad great songs, great production, and What You Know gets daily burn. I still think he's underrated lyrically by many but who cares, I don'tlike to argue so, yea.
