This doesn't look promising at all, mayne...

[izzy2024]

Why not? I think it looks straight so far...Dre, Kanye, Storch, LES, and will.i.am as producers...Jay, Game, and Kanye as guests...looks ok to me. I mean I'd love to see some AZ, Cormega, Quan, etc. but I mean what'd you expect from his Def Jam debut. The only one Im not really lookin forward to is a Snoop track.

[jotemel]

Play on Playa feat Snoop Dogg

[izzy2024]

What I meant is, I'm interested to hear Nas over a Storch beat...I just wish Snoop was left off.

Why do rappers continuously get beats from this dude? I've never heard a beat that I liked from this dude.

You really didn't like the beat for "Compton"??

I didn't think it was a bad track except i fail to see the relevance of gangsta boogie...
