Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 10 out of 12
  2. Negative: 0 out of 12
  1. An appreciation for the heart, humor and no-bullshit directness of the very best hip hop is all that's required. [May 2004, p.108]
  2. 80
    9th [Wonder]'s impassioned beatwork's sole shortcoming is there's not enough of it, as this album runs less than 40 minutes. [Apr 2004, p.83]
  3. 80
    This is one explosive package no hip hop loving home should be without. [Aug 2004, p.92]
  4. 60
    Striding purposefully forward on vaguely cinematic fanfares and catchy soul-queen loops, Murs reveals more than you want to know about his sex life. [May 2004, p.130]

    Murs is a great, humorous rapper with some different subject matter. However, I am really get sick of 9th Wonders production. The man needs some new drums. The first song, however, is one of the most different 9th beats i've ever heard, and walk like a man is an equally great song. Dope album, but with only two really high points I can't give it higher than an 8. Expand

    9th Wonder holds down his end, but Murs is dissapointingly dull lyrically on this album. Too much sex talk bogs down even the best production.
