Any other time Em isn't rapping, the beat is watered-down or has no drums so it doesn't actually sound like a beat. I know letting the beat run doesn't add anything substantial to the song, Em has done it on all his other albums and I just like it for some reason. It makes the song more badass.

It's funny you bring this up because one of the first things I noticed on my first listen was how all the songs are edited sharply like you said. I don't think it's that big of a deal but it would've made some of the better beats shine more.

It's definitely not a big deal. I like the album virtually no less than I would otherwise, but like you said, the beats on certain songs should have been showcased a bit.

Edit: @Blogs...No I don't dislike it, it just never struck me as the 11/10 mindblowing masterpiece people make it out to be. I'm determined to listen again someday in hopes of it "clicking" for me.
