Project is like listening to a popeyes biscuit, no drink. Its unfortunate because he has a dope voice and that big fella cadence, its just the bars and flows vary from plain to corny and it takes away allot from the tracks. To put it frankly it sounds like he started rapping when rap was created, quit rapping in the early 90’s and then decided he was going to start rapping again this year. The mix on this also has that energy, nothing was done to add any flair or interested and the production on this was just ok. Strange enough the only time he really clicked on tracks was when the flow was more rapid, with a touch of word salad. Pacing is rough becuase out the gate this project isnt the most interesting and its hard to relate to fully from its takes on life, religion, and the uninteresting events he maps out lyrically. Id pass on this one, and as far as the MC, a few tough critics could go a long way to chisel off all the small issues.
