I just wrote a review criticizing Biz for starting an album with four minutes of shoutouts, and he follows on from his previous album to do it again here... The production is nice too, but it's wasted. On the chorus of the next track, Biz off key and drunkenly sings "American Woman" borrowing from the Guess Who song, but I thought he was ahead of his time and yelling "MAGA woman" until i checked the lyrics. 'Let Go My Egoo' is slow and drags on with its repetitive loop of keys. Not a great start so far. Thankfully it improves from there. 'What Goes Around Comes Around' adds some more life to the production sampling some vocals from 'A Feeling Is' by The Emotions. You'll have to like the instrumentation because it continually loops for four minutes with Biz just spitting a story about karma for the entirety of the song without any hook to speak of. 'Romeo & Juliet' has one of the best instrument on the album. It's kind of dark and the hook stands out. 'Toilet Stool Rap' again offers a step up in terms of its beat compared to the album's opening tracks, but unfortunately, its theme revolves around brainstorming ideas while sitting on the toilet. The sample in 'I Told You' made me save the original for later. Like 'Romeo & Juliet', this adds someone of a dark feel to the song. On this song Biz has messages for all of those who doubted him. 'Take it from the Top' is a posse cut of sorts. None of the features ring a bell. - Backspin, Capital T, Diamond Shell or Force Fell and the beat is very standard. The sample used on 'Alone Again' was uncleared, causing this album to be pulled from shelves and later re-released without the track. It’s a straightforward piano loop that leaves you wondering why they didn’t simply create a replacement. The finale, 'On and On' is a fun track that sees Biz rapping with a different style. There are some good uses of samples here, but there are a number of tracks that are fairly forgettable. In comparing to his previous album, 'The Biz Never Sleeps', there isn't a lot in it, but I'd say the hooks are a step down from his last album as is the consistency, but the high points of the best tracks listed below, are higher.
