I just finished listening to it for the first time. I’m not as enthralled by it as a lot of people seem to be, but it certainly has its moments. It’s front-loaded with a bunch of tracks of Dre doing some Madonna-style trend hopping, which is disappointing, but once it got past that part I felt like it picked up a lot. There were definitely a few songs I really liked on first listen and more songs that I thought were okay but might grow on me. We’ll see. I can certainly picture this being a grower.

Gotta be better than a lot of that other sh*t folks in his genre are putting out right now. Going to give this a listen myself.

I was definitely impressed with it. It's not quite on par with his other two albums, but I don't think anyone really expected it to be. I was a little overwhelmed by all the guest appearances at first, but I think all the artists did a good job of carrying their own weight. My favorite track is probably the Jon Connor and Snoop cut, which should definitely get Connor a little more exposure in the near future.

Both of Dre's other albums are like that. They're producer albums. He is known for having albums full of appearances.

This album is fantastic, should have given it a 4. Absolutely loving it, really nicely put together.

Is there anywhere to buy this in physical? iTunes will not be getting a penny of the vast monkeytennis fortune.

There is a third party seller on Amazon but I'm unsure.

I liked this album. It's far from a lot of the nonsense that is played nowadays. I've always been a fan of music with substance and great lyrics. Of course he has nice beats as well.

I don't think so. And I agree with you, Itunes ain't getting nothin from me.

Edit: I've been on a few websites and supposedly you can get a physical copy, but I've never seen it.
