For real I seen this one interview....

where U-God said, "I'm not going to be the one that's going to sit here and try to save the fucking day." Good to know. That attitude's reflected in Dopium, which is a great record but never gets preachy. Glad Baby U's found his niche. Stay there and make great records all fuckin' day. Let the preachers preach and the teachers teach and the TV columnists write retrospectives about Screech. Stay drunk everyone. Fuck.

My God...

Somehow U-God learned to MC. Listen to "Dopium" if you don't believe me. Guy still lacks the emotive force of RZA or Ghost, the wit of Method Man, and the menace of Raekwon.

But he now takes his place alongside GZA and Masta Killa as a quiet chronicler of The Life. Granted, those two focus on spiritual questions, and Baby U still hasn't left the club.

But after hearing "Dopium" I think he'll get there.
