Rick Ross is somewhat entertaining to be honest. Lyrically he doesn’t really rank at the top but he’s no where near the worst I’ve heard either. I see improvement in his flow and for that,and only that, he get props. Production wise the album is pretty active but all of that is nullified when you think about his past. Every time I hear him make a hood reference I know that he’s just telling someone’s else’s story that he personally locked up. There are some cool ass C.O’s in the world and when you are locked down you may be inclined to tell them a thing or 2 about what you’ve done. When Rick Ross proclaimed that he knew Noriega.. the real Noriega, he was probably telling the truth. He probably had to walk him to the hole one day after a fight broke out in the yard! Dude is probably at the helm of the hip-hop police! Never believe in any man who lies about his past only to turn around and acknowledge it after photos were divulged! Not a good look

Hey Freddie
I think that your review of this album is decent.
Thats’ the kind od review thats needed , without bias.
I think that the album had some good productions , the top 4 productions that you mentioned as well as the others.
I ‘ve listen to this album so much that It’s in my brain ,every word, every beat.,,,
My personal favorite is that Usual Suspect by The Inkredibles. That base guitar line drives me insane. You have to listen very carefully for it . It’s a killar

big ups to The Justice League from carolina……

BOSSSSSSSSSS!!!! Of course the production is good, but if you have any attention span at all, you would see past the production and realise that this album isn’t very good. I tend to judge a rapper by how good he can rap and ricky can’t. I do concur that this is ross’ best album to date, which is just sad……smh..rick ross will always outsell my hip hop heroes though….sad state of affairs.

Big ups to all classic albums because nothing new is joining that category.

Tical’s a classic man, name a wack track on the album? It’s pretty much all dopeness. Budden needs to chill with calling people out lol Royce, Saigon, P and now Meth. It’s been made bigger than it is though.

We fans defo need to support dopeness, Elzhi deserved to outsell damn near every artist last year but made peanuts. I’m just thankful dude is still droppin material cos its easy to get disheartened in the industry.

actually i always taught budden had a very one sided flow (kinda like the game) before the slaughterhouse thing….(which is somewhat recent so he shouldn t get ahead of himself quite yet)

“Ross’s flow throughout this album is the same.” Fixed your comment for you, Deez!

haha Freddie, yall think I’m some kind of Budden stan now just cuz I said “Tical” is not a classic. That statement had nothing to do with Budden and everything to do with “Tical” not being a classic.

After prot of Miami, dude just fell off……thats all there is too it. Homie trys way to hard to be gangsta, then starts beef with Slim…for what? Notoriety? Punk should go back to being a prison bitch and leave hip hop for real.

I felt like this album was missing the BAWSness that the other albums had, if that makes any sense. but it’s still great. production is wild. those beats are epic. i’m a disciple of the GZA too, but you just gotta be able to appreciate this for what it is. he’s the baws.
