great album!
when i heard the snippets i knew this album had the potential to be in my top 5 at the end of the year. jake took it to another level with the production, it stays consistent on the entire album. no fillers, maybe the birdman song which doesnt fit the album at all.and freeway really stepped it up a few notches.this is a great album, i love when these projects come out of nowhere and blow those highly anticipated records out the water.i was gonna pick it up the day it drops, but when i saw the packaging video a few posts above, i had to order this immediately.

But seeing as I didn't have a clue it was coming, I wasn't patiently waiting and it seemed like it didn't take too long to make.
i was really disappointed with this album. im guessing everyone here who is saying how great it is didnt hear 'the beat made me do it' mixtape? that shit was dope, great beats and free killed it. this album was NOTHING like the mixtape, and i think that was the best mixtape of last year! i guess its a decent album if u werent hyped off the mixtape. mixtapes are supposed to build hype for an album but its not very good if the mixtape is in a completely different (but great and unique) style to the album. if u didnt hear that tape go check it out now!
