I just listened to JFKLAX, Prosper, and Tapesty back 2 back 2 back.  The production sounds like one long album… 3 albums through. 

Lyrically- 5/5
Production 2/5

The lyrics and overall storyline can make up for the lack of production.  Good stuff Ill listen again. 

These guys are monsters who need some good production behind them.

You know, that's a really good insight.  That explains why I like this album the least of their collabs.

The more I think about this being their last project, the angrier I get. They completely torched the possibility of a Slaughterhouse reunion in 2022, but after listening to that album and their many interviews, you understood why and at least they were going to keep collaborating for the foreseeable future as a consolation. Now two years later, they're like, "Nah, fam. We done"? What the fuck is that? You trashed everything the four of you accomplished for some short term gains? This really makes me rethink the end of Slaughterhouse. Were Royce and Joe right? Did Crook and Joell really crap on Slaughterhouse for a bag?  Either way, this album now really leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

They released 5 albums together as a duo.  People grow, want to move on, do other things.  DPG did their own albums, Wu Tang did their own albums, Bone Thugs, etc.  As far as I know, there's no drama or anything like that, just wanted to branch out and do other things.  I respect that.  Crooked I started out as a solo, this Slaughterhouse/Joell group project was a fun thing to do for a while, but I don't think his intent was to be thought of a group member the rest of his career.
