Good, but too choppy

"I enjoy many of the tracks on this album, in particular, the blackstar joints, along with the contributions of lootpack, phil da agony, and evidence. They are all solid songs with great beats. The only detail of this album that I don't like (or particularly understand) is the fact that every other song is an interlude. It kills the the continuity and hurts the project as a whole. A solid effort by the creators, but could have been excellent if the filler was excluded."

The Weight

"Listen to the guest appearances>>> El Da Sansai, Dilated, Craig G, Will Pack, Phil da Agony, Consequence, Out Da Ville, Mike Zoot, Blackstar, Tribel, F.T., Lootpack, Shawn P., Mighty Mi, Marley Marl, Masta Ace, Plus One, to name a few. Underground has expanded to the UK and the rest of the world is catching on too. This album is a tight collaboration of the illest beats and rhymes."

Yes, listen to the others, but think for yourself a bit too

"First of all, everyone who commented that this is too choppy and has too many interludes are absolutely correct. There are not really 28 tracks on this CD. There are 14 with 14 interludes, basically. They do make listening a TOUCH more uncomfortable than it should be. (If possible, I would have given this 4 1/2 stars because of the interludes).NOW to the MAIN POINT. Screw the interludes, this is a great CD. EVERY SINGLE TRACK is basically great, with artists from El Da Sensi to Dilated Peoples to the Lootpack to my personal favorite track on the entire album, Kronkite by Phil Da Agony, with one of the best lines in it in any song with "talk a big game, play a bigger one, even your own homeboys be like 'dat ni**a won'." If nothing else, pick it up, put it in a CD burner, and make yourself a new copy, WITHOUT the interludes (that's what I did). You'll still get your 14 quality tracks and won't have to fiddle with the remote while listening (at least the interludes weren't attached to the songs, I CAN'T STAND when the last 50 seconds of a song are the interlude for the next song {i.e. that comes to mind is Rosa Parks on Outkast Aquemini})."
