I must say that I am not disappointed by the quality of the Bay Area albums so far this year.......I am most impressed with Bailey- Champ Bailey and The Team-World premiere. Whether or not the songs are were leaked or not, from an objective perspective and viewing the album strictly on song quality, The Team album is very good. The San Quinn- The Rock: Pressure makes Diamonds was a tight azz album. E-40 had a good album that has mass sales appeal which the Bay was counting on. Also, the Balance album was nice. Also, that Willie Hen performance on The product was tight! I almost forgot, the Mess and Quinn album was tight. It's good to see the Bay putting out such quality products. Also, Killa Tay, B-Legit, and Jacka put out album with lots of good songs. Its late April and there are 8 more months to go....suffice to say that if the Bay continues to put out these types of albums.......still looking forward to Messy marv, Don Toriano, Big Rich, Turf Talk, Mistah Fab, Ya Boy, and many other bay quality products this year........The Bay is in the Building and a force 2 be reckoned with....for someone whose 1st bay albums was Hugh E-MC and JT: Don't Stop Till We major back in 1991, its amazing to see the progression of the Bay since 1991.
