I'd looked up more Hush music after quite enjoying his album, 'Bulletproof', but this had slipped by or it had only been recently added to streaming platforms. It begins with a skit of Hush frustrated at his lack of success that is a theme on some songs. It's all passable music but hits its stride towards the end. 'Roses & Razorblades' is a rap-rock song of sorts and has build up that other songs don't. Hush has a connection to Eminem, giving him a feature before he was huge, and the storytelling 'Barricaded Gunman' gives off a 'Stan' feel. 'Poetic Justice' features a 'God Moving over the Face of the Waters' by Moby that would make any album song standout.
After a few spins, the last few songs are ones I replayed, but nothing else grabs me. It comes and goes.
Best Tracks: Roses & Razorblades, Barricaded Gunman, Poetic Justice
