I know they're all minimal as shit for the most part, but I can't tell the producers apart at ALL. The Tip song sounds like Roc could've produced it. I'm leaning towards putting this observation in the "oh it's a cohesive album" category, but after reading his recent interviews I was expecting something else on the production side.

The rapping is sick. Not much else to say about it. He got better and he was already good.

"Emeralds" and "76" stand out on the production end, but so far nothing on here grabs my attention like "Jungle Fever" did with the lyrics. That was one of the best SONGS I've heard in the last 10 years.

All in all, I like it and I think I'll come to appreciate it even more. I had high expectations though.
