Honestly I don't like this that much, but those of you who are into games and 8bit sounds might like it, I just can't listen to it more than a couple tries out of curiosity...
" Originally titled SUPER NINTENDO SEGA GENESIS (WHEN I WAS DEAD BROKE, MAN, I COULDN’T PICTURE THIS) but eventually shortened (because, dude, that’s kind of a long album name), the album title is both a reference to the Biggie line in “Juicy” and an indicator of the album’s contents: delicious, delicious mashups of Genesis and SNES-era game tracks with both old-school and contemporary hip-hop. You read right: unlike Ocarina of Rhyme and Vinyl Fantasy VII, this album isn’t constrained to one game, and as a result, you’ve got tracks like Sonic 3′s Carnival Night Zone and Guile’s Theme from Street Fighter II getting mashed up with classic rap songs, to glorious results"
