I'm Joe Budden listeners since "Pump it up" from 2003, was happy for his dispute with Def Jam all mixtapes and albums Underground and after all these years no problem with a more commercial album again from the King of New Jerz. Joe Buddens great strength is the personality of his poetry, highly empathic, mature and intelligent. For this album, however, it means that he raps the productions into the ground, and to such an extent that you have to pull off this at least one point of the overall evaluation, since a better producer, feature and beat selection this album would have procured a quantum leap. Why not productions of J Cole, Kanye West or Apollo Brown? Why not features such as Frank Ocean, Migel, Big KRIT, Kendrick Lamar and Joey Badass? Why torment the listener with terrible verses of Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa and French Montana or refrains from tank and Omarion? Well, apart from the guests and the production of this album is great and has its strong moments: "All in my Head" and "Skeletons", with his boys from the Slaughterhouse. Or "Ghetto Burbs" with Emanny who regains ground here at the Hook-Front. Joe Budden even convinced me with nearly every word. As I press then like to keep an eye on when baby again on Crazy is sung in the chorus or the drum programming sounds as if Dieter Bohlen sat at MPC. After ASAP Rocky the next serious released in 2013, but unfortunately because of the aforementioned deficiencies and weaker limited recommended for all those who first mentioned features, together with its style may or 2. are able to turn a blind eye, the talent Joe Buddens because.
