Personally I loved The W when it came it. I had it on repeat for the next year. But it was definitely a departure from Forever, and generally was not as well received as, say, Supreme Clientele. Not much support in the mainstream behind it.

I also loved Iron Flag. I must’ve played Uzi 1000 times. I still think it’s one of their best songs. Even though Iron Flag felt more like a compilation (which it basically was), I still thought it was a great record, on even footing with The W, but for different reasons.
