Most of the beats, to borrow a line from Shania Twain, don't impress me much. It's all solid and not a chore to listen to as the rapping is nice, but as usual from a Wu or Wu affiliated artist, the beats are a bit of let down. 'Rock N Roll' is the only thing that comes close to being great here with it containing some more energy in the verses, however; the hook stops it from elevating to another level. The chorus on 'Chop Chop Ninja' is annoying also. While I didn't love 'Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Pt II',, it has more stand-outs than this album. Overall though, while it's a bit weaker than his previous album, if you're a fan and/or enjoyed his recent work, I can't see you not finding something here. 2.5-3/5
Best Tracks: Silver Rings, Snake Pond, Rock N Roll, From the Hills, Masters of Our Fate
