I bought the album and was disappointed Some dudes like Kurupt, Roscoe, Daz, Kokane ... they must have better producers cos this album sucks!The only good track is "Game Been Missin" ... str8 bangin' my rating of the album : 3.5/10
i really cant believe all the hate this is getting...
I came into buying this album knowing I am not going to hear some Fred Wreck/Dre/Battlecat type beats. Beats are for the most part subjective. Silva is getting better with his and I enjoyed the majority of them on this album. It had more live instruments and the beats were layered much better than Daz's which sounded more like rough drafts at times. But hell people say Dre's beats are wack so go figure.

He is in the industry and he got a wish list of people he want to work with and a bankroll to match. The x factor if and when he ever gets there is constantly improving his product. Better beats, etc. I think he learned from his mistakes on Daz's, made some improvements and then did Gotti & Scoe's. For the artists it is a no brainer unless they are completely turned off by what he is selling. I don't know I thought it was solid. Now for a musical junkie like Kokane it will be VERY interesting to see what kind of beats he comes up with for him.
You guys are trippin.. Check this on good headphones, sounds balanced as hell.. I would reckon it would sound good on a good system too... The way this is mixed is for the vibe to come off the guitars and horns, with the percussion sounding more live than a traditional beat.. Definitely not a bass-focused producer, which is good... The only problem with _some_ of the beats is they aren't produced enough, could added sum extra elements or instrumental to some of them to make them more complete.. smh @ another "im industry, but im in da streets" line.. C'mon Roscoe...Not feeling the lyrics, suuuuuuubstance boys!
