| 9/10 3rd best album I'll say it's about a tie w stillmatic |
|
Jul 20th 2012 | 447
|
| its actually way better than Stillmatic, nice obligatory Jay mention tho |
|
Jul 20th 2012 | 455
|
| Upon further inspection I think it may be better |
|
Jul 20th 2012 | 466
|
| I'd give it 8.5-9/10, fifth best album, which is great considering. |
|
Jul 20th 2012 | 457
