He still rapes music; always has and probably always will as long as he can make money off of it. DJ Drama is the face of everything that's wrong with today's hip hop.

1. Oh My - 4/5. Always thought this was a solid radio track since it first came out. Roscoe Dash hook game is on point. Fabolous & Wiz are good radio rappers.
2. Rough - 4.25/5. Heard this on a Jeezy mixtape recently. I dug it then and I dig it now. Jeezy/Gibbs make a dope ass team.
3. Lay Low - 4/5. This beat is dope. Young Chris sounds really good on this (And ( never been a fan). Meek Mill is nice on it too. Cool to see Freeway here too.
4. Ain't No Way Around It - 2.5/5. Solo Future joint. Haven't heard much of him prior to this. Future is pretty annoying actually lol.

5. Undercover - 3.25/5 More of a mainstream track for J. Cole. Not sure I dig the beat much though. Cole is cool on it, more tailor made for Brown though.
6. Everything That Glitters - 3.75/5. Not digging the hook. French Montana just sounds odd on here. Pusha T destroys it as always (wow).
7. Me & My Money - 2.75/5. Typical Gucci sounding track. The beat bangs. But I'm not a Gucci fan lol. "I love her (money) like my favorite sweater" lol.
8. Never See You Again - 4/5. Very good single potential. Wale is just on fire right now. It's not very "hip-hop" but I dig the hell out of it.

9. Self Made - 4/5. Red Cafe is killing this. He's a pure lyricist. "Wasn't down with Roc-a-fella but I was throwing rocks."  Hook is ehh. Yo Gotti sounds cool too.
10. Take My City - 4.5/5. GREAT to see Crooked on a track with B.o.B. It's not really what Crooked would normally do but it's dope; Crook's flow on point. B.o.B on the hook.
11. Locked Down - 3.5/5. I think this is Ya Boy's single. Good to see for him. Sounds like an Akon joint. It's alright.
12. Oh My Remix - 4/5. Trey is cool but I think the original hook is better. I like Trey's verse though. 2 Chainz & Big Sean fit this nicely too.

All in all, a decent album as excepted. The J. Cole track disappointed me, and there's some BAD tracks like the Gucci & Future solo joints. But there's some tracks that will get constant rotation like Take My City, Never See You Again and older tracks like Oh My & Rough

Everything That Glitters and Rough are great songs.

Besides them I've heard the J.Cole and Crooked-I songs and they made me lose my interest in the rest of the album. Maybe I should still give it a chance tho tho, dunno.

You never liked young Chris Luna? He bodied everything he was on back in the Roc. Looking forward to checking out a few of these joints

01. Oh My (feat. Fabolous, Roscoe Dash & Wiz Khalifa) - 3/5, this sounds right in the club but other than that it gets no spins from me really
02. Rough (feat. Young Jeezy & Freddie Gibbs) - 4/5, this deserved a spot on here if it was left off 103, absolute banger that's too good for a mixtape track... Jeezy and Gibbs killed this
03. Lay Low (feat. Young Chris, Meek Mill & Freeway) - 3/5, Young Chris ain't bad but there was too much of him here
04. Ain’t No Way Around It (feat. Future) - 2/5, skip even though it sounds like a bangin' beat
05. Undercover (feat. Chris Brown & J. Cole) - 3/5, the beat is cool, Cole was straight but I don't vibe with Chris Brown really lol
06. Everything That Glitters (feat. Pusha T & French Montana) - 4/5, French came through, Pusha delivered as expected, smooth beat
07. Me & My Money (feat. Gucci Mane) - 3/5, he's had better songs about money but this Drumma Boy beat is sick
08. Never See You Again (feat. Talia Coles & Wale) - 3/5, song is just whatever for me overall
09. Self Made (feat. Red Cafe & Yo Gotti) - 4/5, both these dudes are kinda hit/miss with me but they did their thing here, another banger
10. Take My City (feat. B.o.B & Crooked I) - 4/5, unexpected collab but dope nonetheless
11. Locked Down (feat. Ya Boy & Akon) - 3.5/5, random as fuck that this is on here but the song is cool
12. Oh My (Remix) (feat. Trey Songz, 2 Chainz & Big Sean) - 3/5, the hook sounds better on this version, 2 Chainz verse was entertaining, Big Sean was meh

so it's no brainer that these are the best songs:

"Rough"
"Everything That Glitters"
"Self Made"
"Take My City"
"Lock Down"

3/5 album

It's not that I didn't like him (that would be to say I disliked him). I honestly just never really thought about it. He never stood out as good or bad to me.

Word, fair enough bro. You should check the track "Tough Love" by the Young Gunz, shit is as real as it gets, going in on his own partner in Rhyme on the same track

To be honest, I'm only interested in one track here; and it sucked.
