Joe is a beast, and he show’s it here. His lyrics are on par with all the all time great to ever grace a mic. Exxxes is a song that is off the charts as far as metaphors go…some people don’t realize that he’s talking about himself and not a woman. I couldn’t help it is that reflective and introspective Joe that fans know and love. Overall he does a superb job of being regular old Joe in a hip hop climate that is beat driven, and very much over the top. A definite must have for any classic rap collection.
Album is fire, Joe Budden continulously proves he is the realest rapper alive. Spits lyrics straight from the heart and always seems to relate things to his personal life. The only track that I don’t really like on the album is “Happy Holidays”. Doesn’t seem to fit the mood of the rest of the songs. I would say my favorite song is probably “Do Tell”, but every track finishes a close second. Also the production on this album is top notch, and Joe Buddens flow and lyrics are simply ridiculous.
Album deserves some recognition and people need to go out there and buy it quick, you won’t be disappointed.
I rarely write reviews. After listening to the album, I stopped working to write this review. Joe produced a classic work on this album. This is a must have! Need I say more??…I think not…GO GET IT!
