This is the type of album that would have been thought of as a 4 mic album in 1995, then hailed as a classic today
Thats not really a criticism or a praise. It just is what it is.
Production is just flames, the raps are good, its nostalgic.......but probably too nostalgic and too many tracks. Trim it and focus more on crafting standout songs and it had potential to be much better.
I would call it a solid album, 3.5 mics. Will likely be one of the best Hip Hop albums released this year. In the right mood I'd give it a 4.
