Dec 18, 2015as a long time fan of Rakim. the production doesn't stand out on this like his previous albums. his lyrical prowess however remains flawless. he shows us why hes still one of the greatest MC's to embrace the mic.

[Anonymous]Dec 7, 2009This is a very good album. The lyrics are good and he stays on topic in all of the songs. The beats are good and fit the subject matter of the songs. People who are giving this album low ratings really need to sit an listen more closely to the beats and lyrics.

DJTIMENov 26, 2009I'm glad this album doesn't sound like the current Hip Hop. Great return for Rakim.

This record, though not awful by any means, is simply not up to the standards set by the God MC.

Suffice to say there's nothing very compelling here, though Seventh Seal is made interesting by the paucity of Rakim's material.

Too bad that the production here is decidedly mortal.
