done only what his fans either hoped or expected of him?

I'll be damned if anyone who appreciated the first album could have ever anticipated the power of "I Used to Love H.E.R." and Resurrection. I personally didn't expect the change that came on LWFC, but I welcomed it; and what I got was another stellar album from my favorite emcee of all time. I was disappointed when I heard that NO ID wasn't going to be on it, but who am I to argue now that I love the album, and love it more than One Day... Easily.

The only thing that his fans should expect of him is the unexpected. He keeps raising the standard of excellence in hip hop and he hasn't done it by refusing to take risks just because some fans wanted him to do a Missy: Back to back LPs that sound the same.

"too many cats front trying to be new instead of classic..." Defari
