|  Gave it a 2nd listen and it sounds better. Freddie Foxxx is the star of this album with no doubt. He is already known as a standout anyway on collabo's but add in he did the production for most if not all the album and he is right at home. Some of the hooks could have been better or not so corny but that has never been their strong point. KRS comes off as just babbling on a few trks but never goes to far to the left. I recommend this to fans of either emcees or people who are not mainly production or hook focused. I'm comfortable with a 3.75 rating for this album. Another real decent release for a consistant dope 2011 so far.

| This album was basically a wet dream for me. Two of my favorite emcees of all time doin an album together? Holy shit!
After one listen, I think it's a good effort by both emcees (altough the first impression I got was basically a KRS album with guest spots by Freddie Foxxx). Foxxx did a great job on the production, and "Just You" is the type of innovation that Hip Hop needs more of. So far, I agree with Kev on the 3.75 star rating. Got it on spin right now and the album does get better the more you listen to it. I'm hoping to get at least a 4.0 out of this one. | |

| Foxxx surprised me on the production tip. I was a little worried when I read he handled the beat duties but they were str8. Wasn't this suppose to be his band or something on the beats? I know KRS mentioned Foxxx played the bass on one trk. | |

| I heard one song from it a while back on HHDX and I turned it off before it was halfway done. Had no interest in hearing it. Maybe I will download it. | |

Yeah, Foxxx is establishing himself as a dope producer. He produced most of KRS's Back to the LAB EP. | |
