I'm on first listen right now! Sound dope.

[Lunatic]

1. Pimptro - N/A. Just 33 seconds of some instrumental.
2. Watch the Reaction - 4.5/5. This beat is fire. Pimp C's verse is hot as fuck; the hook is just as dope! Killa Kyleon & Lil KeKe sound great on this too. GREAT start!
3. Grippin' on the Wood - 4.5/5. Everyone here has heard this. It's fire. Cool idea to put K.R.I.T. on here as he fits/sounds like a third member of UGK. A very nice track!

4. Finer Thangs - 3/5. Not much Pimp C on this. His verses are cool though. Too much Brooke Valentine on here. Slim Thug spits cool. I actually prefer the Luda/Wayne/Trey Songz version.

5. I'm So Proud Of Ya - 4/5. A Slow vibe. Pimp does his sing flow on here that works. He also raps and his verse is smooth as hell. Cory Mo & Hezeleo share verses and its cool.
6. Get Down - 4/5. Beat is tight. Hook is dope as well. Fits Pimp C perfectly. Sounds like a track he completed. Smoke D sounds Ok on it too.
7. Bread Up - 4/5. This is pretty cool. Beat is tight, nice hook and it's a typical Pimp C verse; he hated shaved pussy! lol. DJ B-Do comes real correct as does Paul Wall.
8. Fuck Boy - 4/5. Beat is OK. Hook is pretty tight. It's a gangsta ass track. Too $hort actually fits it well, concept and all. Another cool track with a different vibe though.

9. What You Workin' Wit' - 3/5. Hook and beat are average. Pimp's verse is alright. Slim Thug has his basic rhyme scheme going; sounds ok. Bun B is alright too.
10. Notes on Leases - 3.5/5. Hook does nothing for me. Beat is alright. Pimp's verse is cool though. I like Da Underdawgz; need to hear there new album too.
11. Like Us - 3.25/5. Pimp's verse is dope. Beat is smooth. Hook is alright. I cant't really tell who is who on here (feat. C-Bo, Vicious & Smoke D), but they all cool in my books.

12. Hold Up - 3.5/5 This beat is cool and I really like how Bun B sounds on here. Hook is good. Pimp C's verse is nice, about locked up friends. Paul Wall was alright at best.
13. Gorillaz - 4.25/5. Hook is bland/repetitive. Beat is tight though, and Da Underdawgz sound dope. Bun B sounds tight on here again. This beat SLAPS

Overall, it's a very decent release. About a 7/10. It's a shame to read what's going on with the lawsuit, but if you strip that all away, you can just listen to this album and enjoy and be confident they probably put this together the best they could with the material they have.

I have just arrived home from Target with my special edition copy

Pimp has no verse on "Gorillaz"... 

And "Finer thangs" sound so much like "First time again" of Z-Ro & Ashanti, that's my only disappointments.

[K.Dub]

Yesss, finally a (southern) album without Riccy Rawssss

what's on the Target special edition? Bonus tracks? i couldn't find a copy at my local target.

#2 is proof in the pudding that Pimp wouldn't have fucked with Jeezy
#4 is the 5th remake of Scarface's song
the rest slaps

^ best cuts for me... straight album overall, on the fence whether or not I should support this though because of the whole lawsuit thing

[bouli77]

not too impressed by the album after a first listen... it starts off really well but it's getting really redundant and the beats get too noisy for me as the album goes on. it misses that melodic Pimp C touch (except for the 4 first tracks).

also disappointed by the collabo with C-Bo. was expecting a lot from these two vets and C-Bo came off as kinda weak on the song, plus not really feeling the beat.

don't get me wrong it's still very decent but i expected a smoother vibe coming from Pimp C. plus Pimp C's verses sound a lot like sub-par leftovers from the Underground Kingz era, but I'm a PimpC fan so it still sounds good to me.

i obviously need to play the album more to form a definite opinion
