Damn. This is pretty weak.

Only track I can really f*ck with is "6 Minutes". Even though Sheek's verse was trash. They knew this was the best joint. That's why it's the first track.

Rest of the album is almost embarrassing for Ghost. The problem is, dudes don’t want to spend for beats these days. Rappers don’t have real budgets anymore, so they go get tracks from dudes who charge crumbs for production, but the beats sound like it! You need quality production if you're a legend. But Ghost probably doesn't want to drop mad bread for an album and not make that back. Dude probably spent like 5G's on ALL the beats for this album, if that!

I’m not mad at it if this was a warm up album for SC2 I get it. The first 9 tracks not bad. You can’t fault a 70’s baby for making an album with RnB influence.

nikkas making music that they fukk with at this point in they career

Thats going to be a problem in general for older dudes on indies. Hell even if they were on majors they not open budgets for samples. The OG producers also have to get super creative too.
Its been an issue for 20 years but its becoming more obvious as more time goes by.

I had low expectations for this after seeing that every song has a feature, so this wasnt as bad as I thought

Probably a 3.5 for me. Even the good tracks arent mind blowing
