    I love this album, I didn't think it would be as good as the last one but I think it's better. I didn't know much about Kid Rock until his last album came out and I thought I'd just have a listen, I liked it from the word go but I thought I liked it as a one off until I heard this new album....everyone has their own taste in music I know but I love this album

Although TI was in jail, he had most songs on this album already recorded. The pre-recorded songs were the only decent songs on the album because it just seemed as if he wrote the newly recorded songs in a fifteen minute span. Signing a record deal as a young teenager right off the streets of Atlanta, there is a vast improvement in his lyrics and you can see the maturity that he has gained. The album has a recorded fourteen songs and only four that TI sings solo. Eleven songs having guest singers, TI had some good friends because they sure helped him out.

    It's a grim assemblage of cliche from the title downwards. [Feb 2011, p.90]

    As he moves beyond his rap boundaries into more country-rock fare, this album is a step forward for the Kid.

    With its emphasis on freedom, this is the kind of stuff beloved of American who are heavily armed, piss-drunk,or both. The rest of the world need not apply, however. [13 Nov 2010, p.52]
