3-4. Just very formula imo. Some tired topics too...

Songs I'm diggin...
-"Turnstyle"
-"Breath Eyes Memory"
-"Shalamar"
-"Sing Into The Sky"

The rest...
"Native Son"-how many times we heard this same beat?
"The Confidence of Knowing"-cool I guess, but the singer not working for me...
"We Outside"-suffers from wack hook syndrome, beat is dope though...
"To The Ghetto"-super average, do we really need this track? Beat knocks though...
"Swat"-sick beat, but lyrics not feelin...
"Pay Homage"-even this title is sleepy time, just kind of there, super average...
"Love For Life"-required love joint...singer not working for me...beat is that flavor.
"Steve Austin"-so much more could have been done over this beat...not feeling Diani...
"It's Workin"-sounds lazy to me hook wise, beat is slick, but the hook failed it, and made it corny...


Maybe it's just cause I hold Kweli to such a high level due to his incredible early career work...victim of his own success? Again though, the beats throughout are ill...
