IMO the cd was good, one of his best....he's gettin away from the sampling and working on more original beats using live instruments. the intros are sicc, the nicky track, and dubee and reek track are slaps. rollerskates is my persoanl fav.....if your familiar wit smoov-e, this would be his best cd to date, definitely worth the $$...i see smoov-e got a lot of haters following him, but for folks that dig his music more than his persoanl life...this cd is a go getter....
