God damn this is still hitting the **** out of me. I love how in most hip hop albums the concentration is on the MC, and then the beat. But in this album the MC might be the point of any track, or the DJ might have an instrumental track, or Dose One might hit you with some spoken word **** that throws a monkey wrench into the entire notion that a music album should be kept going narratively by music at all times. There is never any definite sense of what you should be concentrating on unless you're paying attention.
