    Here, Nas is so fierce, so plainspoken, so lean with words, that he demolishes not just the oeuvre of our ruling rappers (yes, including Eminem's) and recalls the music's lyrical champs like Rakim, he even brings to mind hip-hop progenitors like Muhammad Ali in the "Rumble in the Jungle" era.

    It's not all brilliant, but there's enough of brilliance here to convince.

    A welcome return to form.

    By far my favorite album from Nas entire career at this point. Though production is not stellar, it certainly isn't lacking as compared to previous albums. Lyrically its by far one of the best in hip hop and Nas' career… Expand
