I've heard that this album is weak, and it doesn't seem to be getting much praise on here either - think I'll skip this
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified[/i - Jay-Z

LOL.
I really liked this album on the first listen,need to hear it a few more times to analyze it.
Definitely worth a listen. :y:

Is the album really that bad? I was kind of looking forward to this album.

DIdn't have the chance to play it more than once cause I went out for a while. Gonna listen to it the way I'm supposed to tomorrow.

After the first listen, it's like 6.5/10 for me. Kinda disappointed since I was really excited for this, but I'll give it a few more chances.

Well, after a few listens, I give the album a 6 out of 10.

Fav track is definitely No Country For Young Men, it has that classic timeless westcoast beat, and Cube's flow is perfect.

Oh, and I agree about the hooks, they are pretty weak.

Just found out about the album and am encouraging you guys to revisit it! It is good man!

Singin' "Bagpipes from Baghdad" again
In my dad's drag draggin' a faggot in a Glad bag
Won't be the last time I make a dramatic entrance like that again
You thought I was lyin' when I said I think that I'm crossin' the line again
I've lost my mind, caution oh God I think I've just thought of another fucking line
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
But hip hop has left me brainwashed with a violent streak
