Its not bad...The lyrics are really deep and dope...I think the main reason is because I'm really not a fan of DJ Premier and his beats...

^^^ Premier only did one track.


This album is better than Kanye's IMO.  It's more of a complete album and comes together nicely.  I just see Kanye's album as a bunch of really nice songs.

i love this album...the only thing i think is wierd is the amount of tracks that are the same beat as an older track (by another artist)...for example "T.O.D.A.Y."s beat was originally a track called "Still Got Love For You" by Beanie Sigel...and then "Regardless" sounds a lot like P. Diddy's "Let's Get It"...

then the other thing i thought was funny was on one of the tracks (forgot which one) royce uses some pac lyrics...for one its kind of contradictory considering in a previous song he disses people for biting pac...then a couple songs later he uses the lines "this is the truest shit i ever wrote"...thought it was funny that he bit pac and it was even a line sounding like he wrote it lol

It was killing me when I couldn't figure out where I recognize that "T.O.D.A.Y." beat from.  Then I realized I recognized it from "Make The Music With Your Mouth Biz".

i then the other thing i thought was funny was on one of the tracks (forgot which one) royce uses some pac lyrics...for one its kind of contradictory considering in a previous song he disses people for biting pac...then a couple songs later he uses the lines "this is the truest shit i ever wrote"...thought it was funny that he bit pac and it was even a line sounding like he wrote it lol

He said they were "on his nuts", not biting him.  He "bite" KRS-One, Easy-E and Chuck D too.

lol i didnt even realize that beat was redone by beanie lol...either way as far as the pac thing goes it still sounds very contradicting.

he turned Em's "His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy" into "My arms are heavy, knees weak, palms are sweaty".. he's probably just paying homage to his fav emcees..


I don't like the album as much as yall do which may have someting to do with the fact that I don't like his voice all that much.. he's definatly dope and skilled though
