Needed an EP to tone down some of their worst impulses, over autotuned hooks, unfocused verses, songs like Babysitter.

Some real NY street shyt fire on this though. First two are my favorites. Jim killed that second track. Both of them really.

Yea those auto tuned hooks felt like “let’s get some autotune on here since rappers been using it for 15 years”. That aside, I really dig this album and it makes up for We Set The Trends

I fukk with Jim's renaissance since Wasted Talent and El Capo, and even fukked with the drill tape earlier this year, but this was wack.

Probably only liked 2-3 songs.

the beats are dope but seems like they can’t stay on topic for the songs. Jim is all over the place and that talk flow is playing out really fast. And how many times Maino gonna talk about eating the box. Anyway decent nice beats but need to stay on topic. Bk, harlem really just made me appreciate beans more.

I’ve fukked with Jim since Diplomatic Immunity 1.

Everyone thought he was weak and I was never too impressed. For him to make it to where he is today and his improvement as a rapper and entertainer is amazing.

His ear for beats is wild
True but he’s still average at best which is not a slight considering he wasn’t a rapper. I remember his garbage verse on Me Mom and Jimmy and look at him now:ehh:
