^^^^^^ this album didn't need "street beats" it was about the lyrical content, and the messages within. besides the beats were classic and they provided the backdrop needed to carry his lyrics and flow. see that's whats fucked up with hip hop today. rappers dont talk about shit, but throw a hot beat to it and it goes platinum. that is not hip hop!

this album was a classic. if you dont have it, then your not a fan of tru hip hop, and you're missing out. i can lay the entire thing without skipping a track.
