Roc has a new solo album dropping this year titled Rosebudd’s Revenge. If he’s able to match the quality of Marcberg and Reloaded then he will have delivered a true classic rap trilogy. In the meantime, I thought I’d revisit his back catalog and select what I consider to be the sixteen definitive Marciano records in recognition of his outstanding work up to this point.

Robbie, you gotta put Death Parade on there. Easily one of the best songs of the last 5 years…
’76’ is my isht
Both great but I had to limit myself to two songs per release.
I have to admit sleeping on Roc for years, but thanks to Robbie’s consistent plugs I eventually gave him a shot. My vote for missing track is Soul Music – ridiculous loop and killer AG verse.
Solid playlist I personally would of switched Caviar for Outta Control and put 76 instead of Nine Spray.
Nice selection, I needed a soundtrack for tonights nightshift, just found it, thanks.
Can’t go wrong with this list. I would swap “Ice Cream Man” for “Velvet Cape” and “Emeralds” for “Bruh Man” (even though it would hurt me).
Anyone know when the new album is expected to drop?
HOW CAN YOU SKIP ‘MARCI BEUACOUP’ HIS THIRD ALBUM..THAT AIN’T COME OUT OVER THERE OR SOMETHING..
@TYBO2020: That was more of a compilation rather than a real solo album.
“76” is a stone-cold banger.
I know The Pimpire Strikes Back is only a mixtape but there’s at least 3-4 more joints you could’ve thrown on this mix. that’s the problem with only doing 16 tracks you miss out on so many joints..
I have been a fiend for Roc since the Marcberg EP and found The U.N. afterwards! He is also responsible for me getting to know Ka (whats up w. that Metal Clergy album??) Looking forward to the new album. I find Marci Beacup to be the weakest album, not bad though! U should have put on the Bushmaster colab w Poet on ur comp. But then again cant really say which song u shouldnt put on…
riding around its my personal favorite
Reloaded was hands down his best album as a matter of fact I would go as far to label it a near classic
that boldy james joint with the fashion loop IS off marci beaucoup
i’d have to include “The Man” somewhere in the mix
also i agree with 76 substituted for Nine Spray
that marci beaucoup is strong.dunno why people trip on it.beats are fire and cameos are mostly on point; roc’s verses are way on point–see the aforementioned Boldy James joint
If this is missing anything, it’s the Heist with Busta and Rae. But that’s going further back than anything on here. These are solid selections. Can’t really go wrong with Marc.. I want a metal clergy project.
