Title: Gift is in his prime
Review: I bought this album with very high expectations. A2G was tight, Nia was slightly better, Blazing Arrow was a masterpiece. Then Gift went solo and in my humble opionion, fell off with about half the album. So needless to say, I expected redemption. I got it in full, and then some.This is definitely an album made to listen to from beginning to end, making it much more of a work of art than a collection of dope tracks. I really can't see any other producer catering Gift's beats than XCel. He proves on this album he can create the perfect "exoskeleton" for the soulful, articulate workings of Gift's lyricism while pushing the hip hop envelope slightly further with each track. The energy on this album is well controlled and definitely at a higher intensity than previous albums.What is truly uplifting is that Gift mentions several times that he feels that he's just now gaining momentum. This is only gonna get better.Best Quannum album to date
