Title: Good, but it received too much hype.
Product review: AZ is one of the better rappers from the East Coast, but he has never blown up like Nas. In as sense this is good, because his rap remains faithful to his personality. This is better than half of the rap out there right now, but AZ is becoming more commercial.The album is good, but not as good as 9 lives for the simple reason that on too many occasions, AZ raps over mediocre beats. The track with Nas could have been better. Apart from these two weaknesses, I have nothing else to complain about this album. One can't complain about AZ'S flows-they are almost perfect-but if he had rapped over better beats, this album would have been a classic.
