I'm judging it against other rappers albums and this is bumpable.

Nice trollingYou're asking a non Ross fan to tell you if this material is typical?I'll get back to you when I've gone over his back catalogue, so my answer qualifies as valid for you

A friend of mine thinks his shit don't stink and has played me loads of tracks before. Apart from that I checked out buzz singles like Tupac Back, heard him featured etc but never took my interest any further than that.There's no point in me trying to convince you anyway if you expect all hiphop to be pushing boundaries and thought provoking. Ross doesn't fit with your music sensibilities
