B+. Hot album. Beats are hit or miss but lyrical skills are ill. P-dolo upped his rhyme game. Big Twins is grimier as usual and Un's lyrical flow is dope. !STAMP IT!
If your sick of Lame *ss music made by halfway crooks and lame ni**as then is for you. If you don't like it, you a LAME *SS NI**A too. Happy listening
Prodigy comes back with another album, more of a solo album with a few guests but 2 other s are credited on the album as well. He gets the help of the always impressive, Twin Gambino from the Infamous Mobb (on 5 of the 15 songs), and Un Pacino (on 4 of the 15 songs). Like all Prodigy or Mobb Deep albums, it's dark, gritty, and street oriented. With 15 songs on here, you get 1 classic, 3 ok songs, and 11 good songs, some being real good songs. Guests are on a little over half of the songs, and are mostly the same 2 people. Production is nice as well. Sid Roams handles the majority (12 of the 15 songs), while Jake One does 2 and Sebb does 1 song. A nice album to have for fans of real street hip-hop.
