here it is, folks: i was quite disappointed with R:E. I thoroughly doubt kweli's ability to kill over dre beats. i think he showed he can hardly do it over hi-tek beats. he's not a great solo emcee. BRILLIANT lyricist, maybe the best in hiphop today. but he can't hold more than a track or two himself, he just doesn't have the voice or delivery. there, i said it. my god that's fucking cathartic.

ps kwe, if you read this, don't get pissy or nothin, i may be the only one who thinks this, and even if i'm not, shit, i still bought the record and so did a lot of other people. work on the shit for next time or somethin, i dunno, but it's the biggest fault i see.
