This is fairly uninteresting from my point of view. Too many of the beats are average, and when they do have some good production - 'Soul Psychedelic Side' & 'Are U Xperienced', they just talk over it. Not bad, but not really noteworthy either. Best Tracks: Glory, Soul Psychedelic Side. When Your Back's Turned, Brain Child

I love a lot of this. The first few songs are great with 'Rosa Parks' being a standout. For me, the title track is the first slowish moment. 'Aquemini' is still a good song, but it doesn't match the previous tracks, and the next few songs are likewise. A very good album, but not a classic in my opinion as I don't feel enough of the songs. Best Tracks: Return of the G, Rosa Parks, Skew It on the Bar-B, Da Art of Storytellin' (Part 1), SpottieOttieDopaliscious, Chonkyfire

A lot of solid songs are on this long album, but few stand out. At times the rapping isn't A+ and too much of the production blends in together. The best are songs like 'Halfway Thugs' that sound like a 'Shook Ones' / early Mobb Deep beat and 'Capone Bone' with the catchy hook that offers something different to most of the album. Best Tracks: T.O.N.Y., Halfway Thugs, Capone Bone

The opener is average, partly due to the singing which is likewise, as is 'Absentee'. 'Call to Arms' is a bit better with a better melody, but again is nothing great. 'Set Fire' is the first thing I love. There is no singing and the instrumental is great. 'Slow Years' and the penultimate 'Threads of Gold' fit that mold as well. Overall, the production isn't BSBD's best, but it's mainly the singing that lets it down from my end. The instrumental version would probably be a better listen. Best Tracks: Set Fire, Slow Years, Threads of Gold, Scandal

There are some few really bad tracks here ('The Nookie', 'Freak of the Week'), and the lyrics are poor at times, but as you'd hope being an album predominantly produced by DJ Polo, there are enough enjoyable beats here, of which many feature recognisable samples to be an alright listen. On the whole, the beats are positive, with some light funk, and while inconsistent, this isn't a terrible producer album. Best Tracks: Money, Cars & The Bitches, Have a Good Time, Home Again, Yo Playa
