This must be spearfishing, cause there’s not a hook in sight. If I had judged this album off the first song, I would’ve turned this off. same goes for the album’s last track.The beat on track one sounds like a dial up internet server when you’re on the phone and someone tries to get on AOL. Lucky he redeems himself with the next twelve tracks which are all fire. Marci is in his bag over smooth, soulful production and spits introspective lines, coupled with obligatory fly shit. The monotone voice and cadences are almost soothing as the glide effortlessly over well crafted production. Subtle , yet mard hitting entendres like “T-Boz had a Mac-10, you never know who bangin” are clever and masterful, while other, simpler one-liners like “and I slept like a white baby” show the power of Marci’s pen. He knows his lane and for the most part stays in it. In rotation.
