k, i just peeped it...and same shit goes as his past couple efforts...a ton of slow, love song soundin beats with devin. We are all gettin tired of it and I think the main issue is the production and the 2nd issue is the subject matter (can get old after years and years) but needless to say there are a couple good tracks on this :

I like what you do (my fav)
gotta be me
when will i win
fuckha

the rest

Yes!

So does that make this an official Devin album? Isn't RTE just a label who buys leftovers?

Nah in almost all cases with them they record actual albums with the artists. I think the only ones they did where the songs were leftovers was Young Buck

Feel the same here. So sick of Devin's lack of creativity (and piss poor production) from his last few albums. Shoulda stayed w/ Rap-A-Lot. Coughee Brothaz was his last great album, imo. Rappin' bout weed and pussy over and over and over and over.....tiring

this label has a bad history of not mixing and mastering properly making for poor sounding beats/production. i hope this will be different- havent heard it tho yet

i got mine off rekinco, its on the front page
havnt played it that much, but its not bad. Its obviously sumthin to smoke to like his previous albums. Smoke to this or ride to this.
Oh yeah the production isnt cheap imo, its on spot to me  8) 8)
Right now my fav track is "Jus Coolin'"

After a cursory listen, it appears to be better executed than both Landing Gear and Suite 420.

Post by: Blood$ on November 06, 2010, 03:14:56 PM
after a few spins, it's a straight album... structured better than Suite 420 but not as many strong cuts, but no weak ones either

favorite tracks: "Come And Go", "Just Gotta Be Me", "Jus Coolin", and "Fuckha"

I picked it up at FYE for $9.99... not bad! Its already got its 10$ worth of use. I fuck with most of the CD. My favorites are:

No Need To Call
Jus Coolin
When Will I Win
Fuckha

I dig this. Veeeeeeery mellow lol. But in a good way though. Something cool to bump at the house or in the ride. I like Suite 420 more but not bad at all.
