After some listens in the car and in my headphones, some initial thoughts:+ Beats are banging, Khalil brought the heat as usual, Chris Noxx' beats sounds very Khalilesque, Bink/Batson/Warren G/Focus & Paul Cabbin brought the heat on the boards as well.+ Bishop is on his A-game. He took his sweet time with this one, but he's versatile, masters different flows, and lyrics are mostly on point. He's more original than most artists.+ Bishop got something a lot of these self-righteous rappers lack; humour and self-irony. Usually you don't smile/smirk/laugh when listening to rap, but Bishop made me a bunch of times. + The guest list. Am I gonna complain about features from Ras Kass, Xzibit, RBX, Kobe, Warren G, Kokane or Apathy? Surely not. Some nice surprises as well, some artists I didn't hear about also brought some heat.+ The album is somewhat coherent, but still brings some variation in theme/mood.- The album starts out very strong, but from track 12, the quality is a bit below par, before getting stronger forwards the last tracks. Maybe it needs time to grow on me.- The guest list contains some subpar features, which is kinda unavoidable with 31 features on a 18 track album (not counting the outro).- 31 features might be a bit too heavy, took some lessons from The Game on this one..- Being coherent is usually a plus, but some of the tracks might sound too similar..nice review!
* Thread cleaned up and necessary 1 week ban issued. *Let the album discussion commence.
