1. Waiting - 3.5/5. This is an alright opener. I don't like how it starts but when the beat drops, it improves the overall sound/vibe of the track. Jeezy's first verse is nice.2. Just Like That - 3.75/5. Always love some Jeezy/Drumma. The hook is tight. The flow overall is better than the first track.3. OJ - 3.75/5. It sounds different than most Jeezy tracks so that's a plus. It's smooth and works. All three artists have good verses.4. Nothing - 3.5/5. Another Lil Lody track. About on the same level as the opener, decent but not as good as tracks 2 & 3 IMO.5. Way Too Gone - 4/5. Mike Will getting his shine. This goes pretty hard! Probably the best Future verse I've heard lol.6. SupaFreak - 4/5. Can't go wrong with D. Rich & Shawty Redd. This goes pretty hard too. Future & 2 Chainz guest features back to back makes sense lol.7. All We Do - 3.5/5. Always liked Midnight Black/Jeezy collabs but this doesn't stand out for me. It's good, but more in the lane of tracks 1 & 4 for me.8. Leave You Alone - 4/5. Happy to see a Warren G beat here! This is smooth and fits the Ne-Yo hook perfectly. I like this, single potential for sure.9. Everythang - 3.5/5. A little overkill on the Lody at this point. Not a bad track once again, but doesn't do anything for me.10. Trapped - 4.75/5. Love to see Jill Scott on this; she's dope. The beat is very nice, joint reminds me of "Don't Do It." Definitely a standout.11. F.A.M.E. - 4.5/5. Also a nice introspective joint. Loved this since it first came out. J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League have the two best joints on the album so far.12. I Do - 3.75/5. I like this joint. You'd hope for something better than this from these three but I still dig it.13. Higher Learning - 3.75/5. I like Mitchelle'l but Devin should have done the hook. Lil C/Mitchelle'l, definitely a Grand Hustle thing. Fits Snoop & Devin well. I don't hear Wiz?14. This One's for You - 3.5/5. Glad to hear Trick Daddy on here; he always sounds dope. This is alright overall.15. .38 - 4/5. Glad Jeezy added Gibbs to this to reinvent the track. This is a banger and adding Gibbs makes it that much better. Gibbs' flow is SO clean, untouchable.16. Ballin' - 3.5/5. Oldie, not bad to have on the deluxe. Thought it'd be a bigger single than it was.17. Lose My Mind - 3.75/5. Another oldie but cool to have on the deluxe. Like this better than "Ballin."18. Never be the Same - 3.5/5. I like the difference in sound but it's just alright.Overall this is a very solid album, better than I expected (I expected to be let down). It's probably better than "Recession" and about on par with "TM102."
I love I DO This is pure hip-hop. It's about 3 grown ass men talking confidently about aspects of life they desire - a strong women and children. Andre 3000 is so fucking phenomenal. GOD DAMN! I want his new album NOW. Every verse he was on he's murdered this year.
Mau: Smooth!
How is that Warren G song?
