Word..! Real tired. I feel like everything is depending on this, like you said- no more chances to come back. Jimmy coming through in the clutch. They need to solidify their legacy, at this point because things were looking real sketch since that first failed reunion in 2010 and recently with all them taking losses from different situations except Jimmy, for the most part.
Exactly....that 2010 ish had me hype....then the dame dash beef....then him and cam beef.....finally (years later:stopitslime:) Jay and roc nation steps in so hopefully this time it’s gotta be a go.......but from everything I’ve heard so far this is my soundtrack for the summer.....and it just may do numbers:ehh:

I'm Hard Like D-Block Readin The Book Of Enoch...
:patrice::dame::lawd:

my only hope(i actually presumed he would&admit i twas wrong) twas that he'd get a few V-Don beats,and if we got lucky a Harry Fraud beat or two..

but he got a lot of Heatmakerz and Killa involvement,and who doesn't want to hear Jada spit over a Heatmakerz slap,i question your ear for hip hop if not..:camby:

Uptown, Downtown, Switzerland
his listening session last night was a cool little idea.

had it in a homeless centre or some shyt in Harlem, you got gave a headset with the album while you got had fake money to play dice etc and at the end of the listening you trade however much you had for like tees, hats, AF1's etc

as far as the album;

i'm really liking it...i would love it more if i wasn't already so familiar with it due to the snippets.
if people are going in blind to the album not knowing what to get they'll be pleasantly surprised.

he had a few shaky years post Max and Stacks but w/ The Kitchen now this he's back on his shyt. that EastCoast hustler music.
for Jimmy to make an album this good in 2018....respect.

Never Did The Three Quarters
Dust & Powder
Catch On Yet
Ganging
Got To Play The Game
Epitome
Living My Best Life
The Old Way
Diplomatic Immunity*
Head Off
Pray
Once Upon A Time


....are all fire.

Got To Be Real is a cool relationship record, Adidas is a decent hustling record
the bonus tracks outside of Once Upon A Time could have been left off.

*not a fan of Cam verse on this. sound like he didn't recorded to the beat
verse abruptly ended like he walked out of the booth in the middle of the verse. a damn shame because Jim smoked that shyt.

thats another thing. Jim's rapping might be at an all time on high on some of the songs on here.

all in all a great addition to add to a strong discography from Jim.
