T2 is good, but the length and skits take away from it IMO. I'm gonna go with Uncontrolled Substance. The beat could have been better, but Deck was sharp from beginning to end. It's too bad his original solo debut was lost in the flood. I bet it was dope.
Immobilarity is the most unfairly judged though. It's not a classic or anything, but I feel like it being the follow-up to OB4CL really hurt it. When people realized it wasn't CL2, no one really gave it a chance. It took years for me to appreciate that album for what it was.

Damn, you left of Killin' Fields? That's my favorite track on the album. He killed that one.
It’s crazy how everything from the first wave is a classic, and everything from the second wave excluding Supreme Clientele is ASSic

I wouldn't agree that anything from the second wave is ass. That said, Rza basically said that for that first wave of albums, he stayed in his basement working on things nonstop. After Wu Forever, he basically stopped that and the other members had to go their own way. They might have been good MCs, but they had no real experience in picking the right music or putting together a cohesive product because Rza had always done that for them.
The constant postponement of this album was sickeningNever understood the Judgment Day hate
