"Jupiter's Critic & The Mind Of Mars"
Quik was defo going for the Alien version of himself on that one....
(On some other world shit!)

Future shit, He is either way ahead of his time, Or high az fuck...lol

Dope album.

So is it more like "Alien because it's far out from anything Quik has ever done" or "Alien like if it was made by Andre 3000 it'd be cool cause he's expected to be far out there"?


Heard the snippet and I'm gonna answer my own question....it ain't bad, really sounds like Quik & Kurupt doin their OutKast impression on this "Jupiter" track.  Whether it's a good or bad impression, well, that's subject to opinion, but judging by the majority it's a bad one. I say its a 5/10, I'm on the fence about the track

My review:

BlaQKout - Smooth production on this one here, it has a bit of an old school sound to it. Quik has a knack for intros. 5/5

Cream N Ya Panties - That screaming thing that played at the beginning bugged the fuck outta me at first, but I got used it. This track has a Rhythm-al-ism sound to it. 4/5

Do You Know - This track has a summertime mood to it. Perfect timing. 4/5

Watcha Wan Do - This song is listenable, but its not the best track.. its an average track. It has an Indian sound to it. 3/5

Ohh! -  Not the best track either but its also listenable. It sounds like a watered down Do You Know. 3.25/5

Fuck Ya'll - Great track. Has a bit of a Rhythm-al-ism sound to it as well. Chorus is good. Quik disses his Skanless crew, Hi-C, AMG, KK & D. 4/5

Hey Playa! (Moroccan Blues) - A standout track in a good way. The use of the sample is dope, it gets in the way at first during the first verse but soon mixes its way into the song. 4.25/5

Exodus - Catchy track here, there are no verses really. It may not appeal at first, but it grows after each listen. It definitely can make ya bounce. 4/5

9x Outta 10 - This track is very minimalist. It's basically an unusual drum beat with singing melodies playing the background. But it works. Kurupt spits pretty crazy on this. It may not appeal at first, but it grows after each listen. Definitely a stand-out track. 5/5

Jupiter's Critic and the Mind of Mars - Reminds me of a bit of 80's electro-hop music. This is a very techno-ish track. This also may not appeal at first, but it will grow on you. 4.5/5

The Appeal - One of the best tracks on the album. It has a mellow feel to it. It gets real good towards the middle. 5/5

Problem: The B Stands for Beautiful (Skit) - Just a skit of Kurupt talking about how bitch to him means beautiful. I got a kick out of it. But I'm not going to grade it.

Watcha Wan Do (Alternate Version) - I honestly can't hear much of a difference. It's still listenable but it's not really needed. 3/5

I can actually listen to em all. No cuts to make for me. 13/13.

4.25/5
Not bad at all. 8)
