Only a few tracks in, and I think it's fairly obvious that the vocals where Busta sounds like old Busta were recorded years ago. His voice has been ruined somewhere in the last decade, as can be heard on songs Strap yourself down and Czar, while the intro sounds like Big Bang era (with the last line recorded recently to refer to 2020 and added to the existing verse).

I'm an old head to me The Coming is Busta Greatest Album last album I copped of his was When Disaster Strikes, how do this rank with The Coming

If you like those albums you will enjoy this project it's hard to rank it right now because I need a few more listens and give it time to digest. But the Intro track is straight The Coming Busta. So far I think it's better than Big Bang Theory and It Ain't Safe No More. The coming, When disaster Strikes and Extinction level Event 1 are like Busta's three peats to me.

This is too long but I like this I give it a 7/10

Off top the narration with Chris Rock and the Farrakhan excerpts were fire, my favorite tracks are Czar, The Ross joint, Kendrick Joint and the Vybz joint. Czar sounds like straight 90's corner stabbing music

This is a solid album and comeback for Busta. I'll skip about 3-4 joints (the Mariah joint, the Vybz joint, the Poison sample, don't really dig the Paak joint) but overall I'm enjoying this a lot. Nice variety in production. Sounds like it was recorded at various points over the last few years but it comes together especially towards the end
