I've been on a few hip hop sites reading reviews and comments on this album as I usually do, and I feel the general consensus is that while Rick is improving he still lacks lyrical skills and that the production is good-great. One of the producers of the album even said they used some of Biggie's stuff as inspiration. Me personally though, while the production is the best part of the album it isn't brilliant and Ross is fairly boring throughout which brings it down. You may spin 'Deeper Than Rap' a couple of times but it doesn't have a huge amount of replay value.
Best Tracks: Magnificent, Usual Suspects, Valley of Death, In Cold Blood
