Wait, Three Six Mafia screamed "one-hit wonder" at the time of their first album? Meaning Mystic Stylez, the punishing, grimy, violent independent hardcore rap album from 1995?
I love that album, but I can't imagine it spawning anything resembling an actual hit. I wasn't into them, or any rap that wasn't from the 5 Burroughs back when the album was first released, so maybe I'm fuzzy on the detail. But... Jesus, please help me understand how that record produced a hit!
Fast forward a decade and yeah, they had some hits. Not to mention an Oscar win, which is even more impressive than Trent Reznor's.
I too love the End. Gotta be my favorite album by Three 6 as well.
Gotta love UGK and Juicy J killin' it on ALLA.
