I know most people ain't heard this yet, but I'm really liking this album. More so than the new Slaine to be honest. I won't go into detail until it actually drops, but here's one of my favorite tracks. Xzibit hasn't sounded this dope in nearly a decade IMO.

I actually love the album title and the albino gorilla. I read somewhere that Phonte said it was one of his favorite album titles ever.

I like blowitoutahere, they usually have most of the new underground releases cheaper than other sites.

Did that come with anything? I paid 14.97 on UGHH, and it comes with the album instrumentals and Primate Mindstate EP.

No instros, but it does come with the EP.

Id say that album cover is way better than Kong's (of MIC) album cover

The instros and EP are on the same disc. Tracks 1-7 are the Primate Mindstate EP and tracks 8-22 are the instros. The Instros are cool. There is a nice line up of producers for the other half like DJ Premier, DJ Muggs, Da Beatminerz, Evidence, Stu Bangas and Statik Selektah For what it's worth, the EP is dope as well. Some of the early tracks(East Coast Rapist and Make Alotta Money) that leaked are on the EP instead of the album.

I'm giving this 4 stars, and I prefer it to Eastern Philosophy. I still need to hear Wanna Snuggle so I can't compare this to that. I like a lot of the beats, all the guests do their thing, and the album has a very consistent sound. Some tracks didn't stick with me, and 1:52 a.m. was cool but it seemed very out of place, I'm not sure what he was going for with that. Also, I thought some of the bonus tracks were some of the best tracks - you can decide if that is a good or bad thing. Still, pretty good overall, I'd say it would be worth a purchase especially if you have been a fan.
Get that poll up!

Haven't made it through the whole thing yet. Got it yesterday. I made it to track 12, and I really dig it so far. I'll be finishing it up tonight or tomorrow.
I like the track Premier produced. Doesn't stand out as a "typical" Premier beat, and Ap & Celph work nicely on it.

I'd say this is about a 4.25, after one spin. I think it's dope, but I agree with Half about 1:52am seeming out of place.
Army Of The Godz sounded a little weird to me at first, but after about 30 seconds, I recognized where he took that sample from...I fuckin love it! Yes, I'm a nerd...

My favorite sample used on this album. The actual song starts at about the 40 second mark.

Same here. Was always a favorite. But I heard Army of the Godz, and had to restart the song to make sure I was hearing correctly. I loved it.
