The production varies from being fairly minimal to lush like beats. As a rapper, I'm not in love with her. At times she is a bit 'mumbly' with the production overshadowing her, this is probably most seen on 'Welcome to My World'. She doesn't sound like the most natural rapper, particularly when she spits fast. I don't hate this but there's nothing I really like either. It does sound unique in parts though, particularly considering it's an '01 album. Best Tracks: Keith 'n' Me, What Is It?

The production is laid back throughout the whole EP that suits Lupe's flow nicely. On one song we get the history of modelling, on another, the existence of dinosaurs, (when have you heard, "Megalosauroidea" or "Sauropodomorpha" in a song?), and on another, we get a long boring outro and sound bites about shoes. There seems to be some metaphorical comparison between the structure of shoes and race and existentialism on it. I commend Lupe for being different and I'd rather it than recycled lyrics about suicide doors and how he fucked my bitch but some of the content isn't very interesting. As always there is some originality in the lyrics, his delivery is matched by few and the production is decent but I don't feel like there is anything I'll be going back to from this. As a side-note, at the end of the EP when Lupe says, "Stay in the house!" it gave me flash backs of the Tupac Dave Chappelle skit. 'I Will!" Something about the way he says it. Best Tracks: seldoM

If you've heard anything from Frayser Boy before this won't surprise you. It's gangsta rap banger after banger to get you turnt-up with no lyrically content at all to get you thinking and features some Three 6 Mafia advertisements. 3-3.5/5 Best Tracks: Big Money, Hatin' on Me, Blame it on Patron, Another Level, Any Day Any Time

Lupe is too talented to do this generic trap garbage.

I gave this a few spins but there is nothing memorable here. The rappers and lyrics aren't distinctive at all, with that being noticeable due to the MC Ren verse probably being one of the few strengths this has, and to a lesser extent the Pac song. It's a decent listen with some good moments but there are many better '93 albums. 3-2.5 / 5 Best Tracks: Process of Elimination (Untouchakickamurdaqtion)
