This and the similar 'Waterworld' are albums that when I look through my ratings and see it so high up I often think, "was it that good?" (because I haven't played it as much as other highly rated albums), but when I play it, it doesn't take long to convince me of its excellence. I can understand people saying that lyrically it's a bit repetitive in that it's mostly about what's wrong with commercial hip hop and fake gangsters and stuff, but for me subject matter is generally last in importance. The beats are nice, and both artists, while not having powerful voices, flow really well and create great wordplay. This also further proves you can make a great album thriftily as this was produced on a $500 budget. To be critical for a second, it could have decomposed a track or two as it definitely finishes weaker than it begins, and like most hip hop the skits could have been removed. Overall though, as most will say, it's an excellent listen.
