Anyone up for a discussion on NPG's second album, Exodus? This, to me is the best of the three albums, and is one of my favorite "Prince" albums period. I know, I know, he can't be named, but he's all over the album, and it's just a Prince album.

Thoughts, ppl?

"Count tne Days" is both sad AND funny!! PURE GENIUS!
.....like frankie beverly with out Maze!!.....

It's cool, but I find it a little long winded. Tracks like Big Fun, Return Of The Bump Squad, The Exodus Has Begun and all the segues seem to go on forever without really going anywhere. I'm also not a fan of Cherry Cherry. Other than that, I love Hallucination Rain!

BIG FUN

I love Exodus. It's the best executed of the NPG albums, with the least amount of filler. It even had proper singles with excellent remixes and b-sides. Count The Days, Cherry Cherry, The Good Life and the fantastic Return Of The Bumpsquad are stand-outs. I could do without the segues, though - never been a big fan of these "in-jokes" that hip-hop records have to have between every damn song.

The first time I heard Exodus, I was blown away, I am a P-Funk Soldier from back in the day, so when I heard it, it was true P-Funk so return of the Bumpsquad and Exodus was George Clinton, I don't care what anyone say.(even Prince) and the stories going on at the same time had me rolling on the floor, I enjoyed everyone of them songs. its got 5 stars from me.

SO MANY SEGUES

Aside from the fact that there are way too many segues (I mean, there are more
segues than songs for god's sake!), it's a very solid album. I like it a lot,
it's easily the best of the 3 'NPG' albums.

A masterpiece!

One of my fave Prince recordings. The segue w/him getting mugged and fighting Jenelle cracks me up.I let ppl hear that and they don't believe it's Prince.Pure comedy.
