i agree nas' feat. was one of the more underwhelming parts of the album. seems like he kinda phoned it in. ross shouldve gotten pusha t or someone instead. im nearly finished w/ my 1st listen and as a long time ross fan, this is certainly one of his best albums... and lol @ someone mentioning he was only now surpassing fabolous.

It's not a bad album per se, but Rick Ross works better as a street rapper and this is clearly more commercial minded. Also the track with Nas is pretty meh and that's a disappointment because Accident Murderer was one of my favorite tracks from LIG.

The beat is trash.... sounds like a throw away beat. Personally, I dont like none of Ross and Nas collabs except his 1st one they did..

Almost forgot. Did anybody else go to Target and they have the album listed under the wrong name? I went in today and asked about Black Market and they said they didn't have it. I said "the new Rick Ross isn't in here?"they looked under Rick Ross and the album was listed under Black Matter in 2 different stores. The first Target only got 7 in and they were gone. The second Target didn't have them with the new releases :why:, dude searched on the shelf and it was there under Black Matter :snoop: hopefully he does well digitally because the stores surely didn't have a lot of them on the shelves.

I was working at Target in 2001 when get rich or die trying was coming out. They had zero fukking copies breh. The biggest artist in the country is releasing an album and you have no copies? I always wondered if some cacery was behind that :patrice:
