I'm fukkin' with 1/2 the album heavily.

Nas is still killin' shyt lyrically. Dude is top tier forever. Couple of the features feel a little forced. You can't just throw anybody on a track with Nas. They gotta be able to rock on his level and apart from The Firm joint, the other features could've been left off. AZ is still ridiculous with it, as expected. Dude is quietly one of the GOAT's and he always shows why. It was dope to hear Fox back on a track again and she killed her verse. That was the Fox that we all used to dig and appreciate. I like how Dre closed up the track too. That was love. I still have a problem with Mega not being able to ride beats though, lol. Been saying this for years. Dude struggles on certain beats and you can hear that they had to punch him in like 10-11 times.

The album is dope though. Some of the production is a little weak, but Nas goes off on the whole project. Blue Benz, The Cure, 10 Points, King's Disease, and The Definition are vintage Nas. He's untouchable in that pocket.
