you overly literate, smart-dumb beat patrolman.

now if you want me to start quoting specifics inside songs about where I hear the direct 'I Can't Help It' bass line lifted, the melody of 'Pure Imagination' Willy Wonka, James Bond, Saddiq-fake-50's-rock, the microwave Alicia-sounding Miguel joint, etc.

I mean, I could get into all that but it would require me having to go back to listen again in order to remember today & I'm not really in the mood to do that right this minute.

I can only say not much on this record sticks to my ribs on the first few run-thrus but It's Code is a nice little groove & "Ghetto Woman" conveys some emotion.

I like the build/rap-coda at the end.
