I think the tracklist is backwards. You know if an artist can summon features like Black Thought and the Griselda cats then there are bound to be bars. Smoke DZA was cooking on this one. Every verse is littered with punchlines but DZA is so smooth it’s like judo, a lot of throwing the wordplay around and you not noticing the impacts. The extended addition EP just ads an additional version of 3 tracks, incorporating new features, but it comes off cohesive. I do feel as though this album is in reverse order, like you should start at track 8 and work down to 1. Clever social commentary merged with arrogant slick talk makes this one a winner.
