A very good album, to all the people that complain about lack of real hip hop then this the type of album you are probably looking for. The group consist of Masta Ace, Wordsworth, Punchline, and Sticklin. You know anything Ace is involved with will be dope. It's the usually Ace type album where the album tells a story. Every track is dope just straight hip hop. It's what I call grown man hip hop because the album isn't 15 tracks of them bragging about how they push weight, murder at least 15 cats a day, and and doing chicks 2 at a time 3 times a day. It's a must cop if you consider yourself a hip hop head.

here the myspace for emc they got a few tracks up there

One question: do the skits suck or do they add to the concept? The reason is that I'll eitehr buy this in the store or download it from Emusic.com. If I download I won;t download the skits, 'cause I get 30 credits per month and the album is, like, 24 tracks or something (right?) - so I'd rather get two albums a month and just have the proper songs on EMC. On the other hand, if the skits are an integral part of the album, I gues it's more economical for me to buy it retail.

The skits are just like they were on Disposable arts and Long Hot Summer. They really tie the story together but the music is really dope on its own. And plus no matter how dope the skits are how many times do you actually listen to them. That being said unless you a huge Masta Ace fan I think you can wait on the skits for the time being.
