@Certain I retract my previous statement about skippable tracks - I just relistened to the album and only felt like skipping Friend of Mine. The more accurate feeling I get is one of getting a little bored with some other songs, not that they're bad, just not captivating like every track on Illmatic is for me. There is a sheen to the production that's hard to resist.

and yes, Liquid Swords is a heavily underrated album. See Wrecka's comment immediately after you asked lol. I love it, but it isn't as easily accessible as 36 Chambers or Tical, and gza isn't as memorable a persona as method or ODB. I think it's easy to overlook.
