Of my first few listens through the only misses are "Get Light" and the bonus track.

I love all the beat switches. I wasn't keeping count but there's gotta be at least 4 or 5 tracks with beat switches, yeah?

Love all the different flows Nas' using.

Really the only thing that holds this back, and I've brought this up before but it's getting worse, is Nas' punching in and out becomes very distracting. I know he's getting old, but is his breathe control so bad that he can't even spit 4 straight bars? Maybe it's just me, it's just something that once I started noticing I can't NOT notice it, but I wish he (or the producer/engineer/mixer) did a better job of blending in the various vocal tracks he cuts for every verse to make it sound more cohesive.

If I'm making a 15 track album of Nas/HitBoy tracks between their 4 albums and the few loosies, this album is gonna have the most contributions.
