A pretty good album with a rock/rap feel to a lot of the production. It does drop off a bit in the second half, but there's enough decent music here. It features some legends as features from Nate Dogg, Talib and Eminem, who also provides some production. If you are around my age, you may remember 'Fired Up' from NFS: Most Wanted. 3-3.5/5 Best Tracks: Fired Up, Hush is Coming, Real TV (Clever Lyrics), Superstar

I just revisited Hush's debut and enjoyed it more than I remembered, so I thought it was time I finally checked this out. I remember getting this when it dropped. While his debut had elements of rap rock, this is almost entirely of that genre. While often artists seem to try to hide the least compelling songs in the middle of the album, here tracks 6 and 7, particularly 'Die for Me' are standouts. I enjoy the verses, Hush can flow and writes some attention grabbing bars, but at times the production isn't amazing, as aren't the hooks, with some sounding too similar from song to song. Hush seemed to use the same singer on a number of them. Best Tracks: Rise Again, Die for Me, Put 'em Up, The Open Book

WMWTSO is more enjoyable than I expected it to be given that on his debut I thought Mac was unimpressive as a rapper because he just didn't make spitting sound effortless at all. While the rapping is a vast improvement on this album, the vocals still aren't great, predominantly because he raps with this woeful voice for the whole album, as if before he recorded each song he received a message informing him that a loved one had passed away. It gets boring and kind of annoying quickly. There's some nice production though, that is also an improvement from his debut, in terms of consistency and the overall sound. 'Someone Like You' is Harry Fraud-esque that fits into the cloud rap genre, as do many others, and was the first to really catch my attention. The production over the album is vibey at times, and you'll enjoy it a lot more if you dig Miller's tragic vocal expression. Best Tracks: Red Dot Music, Watching Movies, Someone Like You

I've heard much worse albums. To be honest, while I won't be saving any of these songs in to a playlist, I don't find this a hard listen. Lyrically, 'I Love You' is corny as it gets, but the musical breakdown is chill and enjoyable. The classic, 'Ice Ice Baby', is decent thanks to the sample, which can be said for a few here like 'Play That Funky Music'. 'Hooked' is probably the barest in terms of the production but works with the transition from the verses to the hook. The only really bad moments are the final beatboxing 'Havin' a Roni' and the reggae influenced 'Rosta Man'. Best Tracks: Ice Ice Baby, Hooked, Go Ill, I Love You

Too hit or miss for me, some bangin' tracks but too many I don't like enough to give this a higher rating. Best Tracks: The Sound of Revenge, Turn It Up, Ridin', Frontin', Void in Me Life.
