a sadly disappointing release imo

not that the album is bad, but WAY 2 many tracks that are simply 3/5

Yeah that is sounding like the general consenus around here. I did one quick listen and was not blown away by it. Going to pick it up on Tuesday and really sit and listen to it.

I downloaded it but haven't given it a listen yet... The Source gave it 3 mics, XXL gave it an L, and most people on here seem to not be that blown away so I'm not expecting too much, but I still have hopes for it

heard half the album at the gym yesterday, thought it was cool, but b-reals verses were kinda boring to me for the most part.....and alot of unoriginal production IMO.....c'mon, sick jack used that same 'children of the night' sample on the terror tapes mixtape 2 years ago....there no way b real didn't know that....i think that stealing that whole sample idea and not really flipping it any differently is wack, but whatever.....'6 minutes' is dope and so is 'psycho realm revolution', but im really not into b reals new style that much, you can hear such a difference on 'psycho realm revolution', just listen to an old psycho realm cut from the first album and then listen to this song and you can see what a drastic change it is (albeit, that first psycho realm album was over 10 years ago, and even jack sounds much different now too, but in b reals case the change is not for the better)

Fucking love them NWA style synths on track 06, dope g-funk grooves.

I thought it was our homie Fredwreck on the beat but it was not.

Take notes Andre Young.

I thought the album was just aiight IMO... I give it a 3/5, a few tracks I really liked a lot, the rest were just sorta there for me... nothing wack about the album at all though

i honestly expected a more eastcoast feel to it since he is on duck down he should have had more of they're style of production but i just thought it was useless to go with them then not take advantage.

BCC's last two album were fuckin great with great beats so i dont get it.

Yeah I was surprised no Fred Wreck on this. Or O Shea Jackson either.

Yeah at first when it leaked i was pumped but now im dissapointed i guess the producers b-real used i really dont aprove i think he should of used alchemist more he should of also used muggs fredwreck dj quik and rome battlecat. Also i really wasnt feeling the bo roc b-real connection for a hook singer i guess he should of used somebody else.

I would give this album somethin' like 3/5. "Smoke N Mirrors" and "Get That Dough" are my favourite tracks, been bumpin both a lot today.
