B!NK is a monster. my guess is that it prolly got 'wasted' on this dude is he's just now getting back in Hov's circle. He was milk carton status for a minute. I didn't even know he existed til i heard this...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mr-9NA2eig0

that beat was pretty nice, but yeah for every 'Nas' situation where you have a great MC wasting their lyrics over mediocre production, you have the situation like you mentioned in your original post. an MC wasting good production.
