Pretty good 5th solo album from Jim Jones

"Jim Jones returns with his 5th solo album, and maybe his best and most balance work to date. I have 4 of his albums (I don't own "Harlem's American Gangster") and 2 I'd give 4 stars (this one and his "Hustler's P.O.M.E.") and I'd give his first 2 albums 3.5 stars. Not the best lyricist, he has a style different from most but he does a good job with it. Of the 16 song on here, 1 is a classic, 1 I skip, 3 are ok, the other 11 are good. Guests are real heavy and are on every song but 2, a lot have his Byrd Gang counterparts, including the eerily similar in voice and style to Jay-Z, Noe. Production is prety good as well. Chink Santana and Ron Browz ech do 3 songs, No ID, Track Slayerz, Ryan Leslie, Magnedo 7, Young Yonny, Tripe A, Dangerous LLC, Illfonics and Young Seff all do 1 song. For fans of Jim or the DipSet I'd say pick up this album.

"HORRIBLE....Please do not waste your time or money getting this CD.. I must say I am very disappointed with Jim Jones on this one.. I was expecting another classic like his P.O.E.M.. I was very disappointed.. This one was for the money..... Still love Jim Jones, but this CD was both a waste of time and money, which I have little of... Jim go back to th studio and put your heart into it....."
