I was gonna listen to someone new but I figured, eh, fuck it. This seems like, if not his most personal, certainly his most true-to-life album. I haven't heard Bulletproof Wallets, so this is an especially huge jump from Supreme Clientele, which takes place in outer space or something. About half the songs on here are about sex and there are two specific references to his bowel movements. "Tony Starks got ants in his car!" "Motherfucker, you got ants in yo mouth!" The production is utterly gorgeous. The only thing I wasn't hot on was the remake of Run, especially since it's such a step down from the original. Jadakiss' verse is particularly irrelevant.
Choice cuts:
Beat the Clock, Holla, Be This Way
I liked it a lot, but it doesn't stand out particularly from a lot of things of its nature.
