Who's hatin' on it? Mostly i've seen positive feedback about it. I personally like the album but some of the tracks that ended up on the "ATG EP" should have been on it though.

That one was on Kurupt. He did not want those tracks on the album.

Yeah... Interestingly enough, "You Fuckin' With The Best" is on Domination's album and the "Calico" song is on Dayton Family's album. Koch borrowed a little bit from those projects to fill the gaps.

I thought Kurupt's flow was really off on a lot of the tracks. I wouldn't call it a BAD album, but Gotti can do better.

I actually really liked the album, I think I'm in the minority.

They also double-dipped with "I'm Back" off the Dysfunktional Family soundtrack.

I think for all the hype surrounding it, it didn't quite match the expectations and that's why it never got an overly-incredible reaction. Death Row more or less threw it out when Kurupt left the label. It's a collection of really good songs but it's not quite the "Death Row comeback" album that everyone was hoping for.

I wouldn't know cause I never heard a full one just his singles. Kurupt is nice on the mic but for some reason I just never got deep into his music like that.

Yeah, I mean if they had to fill a gap by putting "I'm Back" on there I guess it was alright, but to me it was so played out from Dysfunktional Family by the time it dropped.

"Jealousy" was mad old too, they could have done a swap with that one.
