'What the Fuck' isn't the best way to kick the album off with it borrowing the bad hook from Nore's '98 hit 'Superthug' ("what, what, what, what, what", etc), but then the album has a run of dope songs. 'Thug Poetry' has an eerie beat and features some enjoyable spitting, including from the feature Saafir, 'Suckas Do What They Can (Real Playaz)' will make you bounce, and 'U Can't Fade Me' tells the story of a woman trying to baby trap Spice that uses Ice Cube's 'You Can't Fade Me' instrumentation that is impossible not to enjoy. Then 'Killerfornia' is the next attention grabbing moment. The following 'Gone With the Wind' to a lesser extent is also nice, with both songs getting more conscious and featuring some nice hooks that include enjoyable female sung vocals. The following couple of tracks are decent with likeable hooks with 'Make Sure They Bleed' giving me a strong 2Pac vibe. Those aside though, there are too many songs that come and go, and the album falls away after some of the best moments around the middle of the album. It does sound a lot different to Spice's previous album from only two years prior sounding much more like a product of its time with some of the 'Shiny Suit Era' production touches being featured. I think I will rank this just below his debut, but it's a close call. Up until this point in '99, it was his worst solo effort largely due to some average-poor production.
