Album is cool but I want the old alchemist back already :yeshrug: ....his beats are too repetitive and monotonous now. Very middle of the road. Every album feels the same. Seems like he only gives Kendrick his A material. Everybody else gets the B folder. The beats just don't have much character to em. Jean Prouve and Munyon Canyon are the clear standouts. Everything else is kinda whatever. Cool background music for when you're chillin.

Production wise I feel like this is almost a greatest hits of the type of beats Al has been doing the last ten years. Super balanced, and lots of different bags. I wasn't a big fan of the batches Al did for Mike and Wiki, or even Earl all that much. This one is crazy, though. I still really think the production and 2Chainz carries the project. I like Larry's raps in small doses, and I like his lifestyle raps, but man next to 2 Chainz his shortcomings as a writer really stand out.
