Very Good Solo Effort! Very Well Produced for a Great Sound

"This is fast becoming a classic to last the ages. Not only are the tracks great musically but the lyrics are so heartfelt and meaningful as well. The tracks flow along very nicely and there are no noticeable fillers or weak tracks here. The sound quality is very good and the bass is killer! However, the only distinctive feature of this version over the normal one is that the disc itself resembles an old vinyl lp which to me isn't really a big deal. If they made the cover a mini-lp sleeve package then perhaps it'll be worth paying the extra bucks. A very good hip-hop/r&b album which is destined to outlast the others over time and become a classic. Highly recommended although you may want to get the cheaper version which probably sounds just as good unless you really need the old vinyl lp-looking disc which I kinda doubt that you do. Also, the track listing on this site for some reason includes two bonus tracks which are really not on the disc and so it's not like you're paying extra for bonus tracks either."
