    The duo's finest body of work since their 1995 masterpiece, The Infamous. [28 Apr 2006, p.135]

    Although there remains a sheen throughout, the body of the set showcases the Mobb in darker, more familiar territory. [Apr 2006, p.150]

    It takes nearly 13 cuts in on the new, G-approved Blood Money before you hear anything that sounds like a real Mobb Deep record.

    It's not classic Mobb, but I'll still take it. At least it's less boring than their last two albums. The quote by E! Onilne confuses me.
