I gots to disagree with you. This IS a standout album. Shit, as soon as I heard Long Time, I knew it was going down. Matter of fact, I listened to Long Time like 4 times in a row. And, with every few listens I find a new favorite song (Game Theory is my fav right now). I know where you was going with this post, but I don't think it applies to Game Theory.
