There aren’t many tracks that stand out – too much by-the-numbers beats and rhymes. The production is worse than the rhyming though – more banging beats would have made it an okay album. <br />All of the artists here suffer because they have put out djbosscrewwreckanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433223770288671156.post-29054764626340511152012-12-03T19:16:03.514-06:002012-12-03T19:16:03.514-06:00Oh.

Bad beats ruin good lyrics. Look at Ras Kass and Killah Priest. Part of being a fan of an artist is having the ability to offer criticism.

How the fuck are you asking for Ghostface to retire when he gave us a verse of the year on New God Flow? Even on here his imagery is second to none. Fuck outta here!<br /><br /><br />I only disliked 2 tracks on here. It was conceived as a concept album that revolves around street shit.

I've been INCREDIBLY disappointed in Ghostface's material post-Fishscale. I hate the types of beats he chooses to rap over now. I don't even know how to describe them... they try to be edgy and bombastic, but all end up sounding like poor man's Dipset/early 00's garbage.
