gave it one full listen and here are my pure unadulterated unbiased high thoughts: 1. King - 4/5, good opener but not as good as previous ones, he sounds focused 2. G Sh*t (feat. Jeezy & WatchTheDuck) - 3.5/5, beat is dope I imagined Clipse on it being more epic, hook was kinda weak on the low but not terrible, Jeezy was a good fit for the song3. About the Money (feat. Young Thug) - 2/5, production grew on me over time but Young Thug was sewage on this, shame on TIP for giving this dude light, he wasn't much better than him on it either4. New National Anthem (feat. Skylar Grey) - 2/5, I get it that he wanted to go for a positive message but this sounds like some Recovery/Lasers bullshit overall5. Oh Yeah (feat. Pharrell) - 4/5, I rock with it6. Private Show (feat. Chris Brown), 2.5/5, I was a little generous rating just because of the sample but this is a dud7. No Mediocre (feat. Iggy Azalea) - 2/5, YG or Ty$ should have gotten this beat, shit's trash8. Jet Fuel (feat. Lil Boosie) - 4/5, this is hard... Boosie ate this track9. Paperwork (feat. Pharrell) - 3/5, it's smooth but there's something off about it and I don't know if it's T.I.'s flow or the beat or both, it could grow on me over time10. Stay (feat. Victoria Monet) - 2/5, sap music11. About My Issue (feat. Victoria Monet & Nipsey Hussle) - 4.5/5, now this sounds like some throwback TIP, Nipsey murdered it and the hook was nice12. At Ya Own Risk (feat. Usher) - 3/5, probably the only decent chick song on here so far, it gets a pass 13. On Doe, On Phil (feat. Trae The Truth) - 4.5/5, this one's crazy I can't front, Trae goes off on his old shit 14. Light Em Up (RIP Doe B) (feat. Pharrell & WatchTheDuck) - 4/5, it was only right he gave Doe B his tribute 15. Let Your Heart Go (Break My Soul) (feat. The-Dream) - 2.5/5, not a fan of The-Dream, production was too poppy for the subject matter16. Sugar Cane - 3/5, not bad but not that good either17. I Don’t Know - 4/5, another one that sounds like Trap Muzik ish, wouldn't be surprised if this was older from the stash18. You Can Tell How I Walk (feat. Rick Ross) - - 3.5/5, one of their better collaborations but Ross got over on him again, this one was catchy does have a few solid jams but all together this album flows terribly all over the place and doesn't stay on track especially from 3-10Paper Trail had some pop-ish tracks but it was cohesive and structured properly, this one lacks direction all together plus he could have easily swiped some of the songs from the Hustle Gang tape to replace the shitty joints on here and made this almost worth purchasing, but then it would still sound like a T.I. compilation either wayTrap Muzik > Paper Trail > King > Trouble Man > Urban Legend > T.I. vs T.I.P. > Paperwork > I'm Serious > No Mercy
Wilbert Smithsonian coming in with a reviewso Will, it's not as good as All Eyez On Me like Closet Material says?
aggressive tracks are pretty good but lack replay value
