Fracas aside, listened tot his for the first time last night. I was impressed, I'm a fan of Royce but wasn't expecting too much, never been a huge Budden fan and I've only heard the odd verse on other artists tracks from Crooked I and Joell Ortiz. Some great verses on there over some simple but effective beats. Some good wordplay and lyrics on a whole, all talented emcees and it seems like a good project.
Don't think they're doing themselves too many favours getting on the wrong side of Wu though, although I suppose it's the kind of confrontation that these kind of emcees thrive on.
Decent album though, I'll give it another spin later.
