is very very good

its debatable as to whether half his lyrics actually mean anything, but damn does he sound good saying them. His voice is as smooth as its ever been and his flow still impeccable, although slightly more slowed down and relaxed as before. When you can work out what he's saying the lyrics are deft and filled with meaning, and even when you can't get the meaning the words and phrases themselves are vivid and perfectly formed. And he sounds like a badbwoy all the way through

admittedly, its the first of his albums that i've heard in full (though i was into a few of his tracks "back in the day"). The production is definitely an improvement over his earlier work (the area where i thought he mostly fell down). Indeed, tis tha heavinezz

And its already been released! Where were the multitude of leak threads that should have filled the music board long ago? I didn't even know about it until last week
