Don't pull out the hate card it is what it is. I'm really really disappointed. Bumped it once in my ride, no tracklisting, and overall the album didn't have the X factor everyone is talking about. Many of the songs sound the same or similar, and there was way too much Rhythmalism re-hash on there... NOt to mention the snares on there sounded like something you would hear from the early 1990s... I kept thinking about that. Bun B was sick though, I'll give him that. Also how the hell are you supposed to listen and enjoy the last track?! Damn the first two minutes made me feel like throwing the cd out the window. It sucked that I had to listen to the dope track that came after it then wait another 3 mins for Quik's groove.Got dam I'm so disappointed... very generic sounding. High expectations... decent album but nothing great. I think people calling Quik a "genius" on this one are high are stans. Definiitely can do a lot better.

Definiitely can do a lot better. he can do better, you aint hating. if you're not into the rhythamalism type of sound that much, there isn't a great chance you'll enjoy this. but i could listen to plenty of "Rhythmalism re-hashes" without getting bored, it's a timeless sound. if anyone who thinks that is a stan...then yeah.

If he's going back 15 years that's not for me. And actually Rhythmalism is my favourite or second favourite Quik album, I love it. I'm not calling you a Stan in particular I'm just saying if you think Quik is a "musical genius" based on this album and how he saved the west ... well... you know
if you can do timeless sounds again and again, i'd say there's a fair argument for 'genius'. but it's all subjective. not thinking you're calling me a stan, just saying that having a sound that changes or doesn't change at any particular time is not a sign of quality. the coast factor doesn't even come into it, it's all about the style of music. you could say the better the quality, the more nuanced changes can be when listening to new music. but yeah, pretty damn big quik fan.
