    Despite some uneven quality control, here's proof that this veteran MC still has things to say. [Dec 2010, p.94]

    While the leader has become absorbed by the pack, however, at least I Am the West doesn't go down without a mouthy fight.

    On the tracks of I Am the West that work the best, he's still got the vintage gruff demeanor, lyrical ferocity and hard hitting beats to claim some significant ownership of the Pacific shoreline. At other times he desperately desires to have a contemporary sound, and that's where things fall apart, but those mistakes can be overlooked or easily skipped compared to the quality of the overall presentation.
