Ain't seen one yet, but this was an album anticipated by a lot of people so one might as well be made.

When I finish i'll post some thoughts, but i'm up to track 10 and its great so far

The whole thing is solid, from the beats to the rhymes. Good start to the year.

Who We Be
Traffic
Git Some
What It Stand For
Borrow U
U Let Me Grow

That's my favourite tracks, the drums on What It Stand For are delightful..

I like the concept tied together with the funny skits. The rhymes are good but nothing really stood out yet, same with the beats. The album's pretty dull.

Production gets boring.. A little dull...

Git Some is fucking fire..

Overall a good album, a bit disappointing. I want a collab album with only Ace & Words.

I'm about halfway through right now. Production is great, but a lot of the beats sound similar. The lyrics are strong and consistent.

EDIT :: Is Four Brothers not on this CD or is it on under a different name?

Alright, after 2 listens, here's my thoughts:

It was a solid album, consistent throughout, but while the production was good, it didn't change much over the course of the album. The loose concept worked well, and the skits were pretty humorous, helping the concept progress. Main problem is that it was so consistent that nothing stood out.

Maybe my expectations were too high, but I was a bit disappointed. Probably because Disposable Arts, ALHS, and even Mirror Music set the bar so high. Don't get me wrong, it was still a good album, just nothing really strikes you as impressive.

and, that chorus on "make it better" was cringe-worthy... the verses were great but that chorus... ugh...

I'll give it 7.5/10 or 8/10

Good album that starts out really strong but it loses some steam over the last few songs, like most albums wit 24 tracks.

The production didn't really stand out as others said, but I don't think it needs to cuz Ace and Wordsworth are excellent emcees and can carry a track. The beats were still good though.

My favorite songs:
Traffic (love this song)
Git Some
We Alright
Winds of Change
Leak It Out
Say Now
Once More

I just saw them perform last weekend and it was sooooo dope. They mostly did Ace's songs off of Disposable Arts and A Long Hot Summer but then they did some of their new songs and it sounded hella nice...I always think songs sound betta live but I'm still gonna cop this album when it drops.

Co-Sign, except i didn't really like the skits there was to many. Overall it wasn't bad or anything but not as good as i expected I'd prefer to hear masta ace do another solo album.

I've listened to this three times over the past few days. Good album, not sure how I would rate it though. My favorite tracks right now are What It Stand For, Once More, Who We Be, and Traffic

That because a lot of people here like what's popular, and it seems Lupe in "the in thing"..
