    i gave it 2.5 and i'm being generous...

    some great beats but the mcing varies from average to downright laughable...

    thankfully he has a lot of guests on the album so these beats aren't totally wasted... although i have to say, he improves massively for life force radio...

    sorry, just being honest...

    4 off the strength of the beats alone

    Afu lyrically was WEAK AS HELL on this album, but it doesn't hinder the cohesive sound that much

    Damn 2.5 really? I thought it was a lot better than that. And I havent really heard much of the newer one.

    I thought his lyrics were pretty dope on some of the tracks though.

    i'm not telling to not buy it... i just didn't rate it... yes, the beats are great, but that's (as well as a couple of nice guest appearances... masta killah the one that stands out) all i'd recommend in it... afu has his moments (whirlwind thru cities) but they're fleeting...

    And in 2008....:




    To be honest this album kinda disappointed.

    I like Afu (literal) word play on Jeru's Mental Stamina, and this album, on paper, is like the best album EVER - GZA, Masta Killa and Smif N Wessun on an album with DJ Premier, DJ Muggs and Da Beatminerz?!

    But in the end, it just dosn't work as well as it should have.

    I mean, even GZA's verse was boring, as was True Master's beat.

    Some good, even great tracks, especially near the end, but not the calibre I expected.

    I wanna buy this because I haven't heard it. I saw his new video Cobra Clutch and it's hard. I love the beat.
