Super fun, and seemed to always be going in unexpected directions until the predictable (some might say inevitable or fated or something but I still think it would've been stronger if they took a different route) ending. Also watching this I realized I don't think Dreyer has a particularly good eye for composition. But the whole slow action to build tension is bomb.
Not that I'm surprised, but I guess Andre's the one who organizes great albums. Big Boi's lyricism is solid, especially on the battle rap stuff, but the production still has that ugly, dated before its time quality that plagues some of OutKast's work. More importantly it's not too satisfying an experience despite an absence of pinpointable weak spots. Yelawolf goes in on his feature though.
Absolutely banging. Suffers a bit from best-of syndrome but it ebbs and flows remarkably well considering. I'm eager to check out more from the Pharaway Sounds label.
Damn, new favorite album up in hurr. Critics are loose with their adjectives when it comes to jazz albums, generally much to my disappointment, but for once I found something that surpasses the most excessive verbiage. I haven't heard anything that feels so much like a self-contained world.
I think only Snoop Dogg was quite able to pull of the G-Funk sound, it's kind of yucky with most rappers. Kurupt has some bomb stuff but he's as lazy as ever, Daz is solid. Pretty long and redundant.
