3rd solo from one of Hip-Hop's pioneers is worthy of 4.5 sta

"6 years since his last solo, the Green Eyed Bandit is back with his best solo album of his first 5, getting 4.5 stars. Being in the rap game for almost 15 years when this was released, he reamained quiet for some time and then released the single "Music" f/ Marvin Gaye and put him back in people's talk as it's one of my all time favorites. With 12 songs, it has 1 classic, 1 near classic, 3 ok songs and the other 7 are tight, no bad ones on here. Guests rap on 5 songs (1 Erick isn't on) and do the hook on a few others. Production is great, nice and funky, mostly handled by the Fuinklord himself (Rockwilder does 1 song, Erick Sermon does the other 11). A must have hip-hop album in in truest form from one of raps greats.
