About halfway through, shyt is tough. Some of the beats didn't age great and are cheapish, but 50's hooks were great and the bars were good. Didn’t get to the title track yet, that shyt was TOUGH.

Was pretty mediocre coming off Return of the Body Snatchers and Elephant in the Sand. Their failure to follow those mixtapes with the "G-unit is back:krs:" acclaim they garnered killed their momentum, although it sparked Banks solo run. G-unit set a bar where mediocre for them is considered bad (see: Rotten Apple), although I do enjoy some of the songs on TOS.

They needed higher quality beats. The writing and hooks are solid to great.

This is the same time when 50 Cent music career flatlined
