Underrated album. I feel like I remember when it dropped it got a lot of 3s and 4s but its better than that. I would say classic. It was great as a final Gang Starr album.

They predicted the modern trend of albums that have short 2 verse songs.

I don't think it reaches the same heights as their earlier albums, but it's still great to listen to. It was one of my favorite albums during the pandemic.

I love how Guru was able to modernize his style while still keeping his identity. The way he rapped offbeat on the first verse of "Sabotage" and it still sounded dope. :wow:

There's only one song I skip ("Nice Girl, Wrong Place"). Maybe "Eulogy" depending on how I feel.
