why was young araab's name not on the cover ?

:patrice:

i can't listen to a full Joe album like that now..his voice when certain using flows grates on me.
this alright though. a quick listen but with a quarter of them are garbage.

Uncle Joe and Idols are best joints off that first listen.

can't go wrong with the sample on I Wanna Know
but......that shyt will always make me think of the Fat Joe joint w/ Idris and her from One On One in the video.

Three- HARD :scusthov::scusthov::scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:
Uncle Joe- Talking that shyt! :scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:.5
Serious- Just hard spitting. :scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:
By Law- A legit, good song. Song grew on me, different, and very infectious.:scusthov::scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:
Flex- straight :scusthov::scusthov:
Forget- :scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:.5 because it was so fukking short...damn near unforgivable.
I Gotta Ask- I fux with this. Could hear this on the radio. A remix with Jay Z would be crazy. :scusthov::scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:
Time For Work- :scusthov:.5... That beat when Emanny rocks out is kinda dope, he almost should've kept that the whole way and I'd probably rate it higher. I think he could've also had a hit if he did
Wrong One- kind of generic:scusthov::scusthov: and I might be being generous.
I Wanna Know- :scusthov::scusthov::scusthov::scusthov::scusthov: classic Joe.

IDOLS- :scusthov::scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:.5 ...Didn't fully like the beat switch, but the first part was heat.





Joe always shines when he keeps it introspective, this is obviously missing that


:scusthov::scusthov::scusthov:.5 out of 5 in total off first listen.

he's rapping his ass off on here, but some of these beats are ehh. might have to let it marinate a bit but it's cool. All Love Lost is my fav Budden project to date cause he worked with more than 1 producer.
