    This album is so on point. Mellow beats, seductive vocals, top notch rhyming and a consistent theme running throughout, that of coming back to the hood and seeing how much it's changed. Ghostface is on top of his game these days and every album he releases is an instant classic. Anyone that loves hip hop should love this album.

    Hands down the best Hip-Hop album of 2014. I love the idea of having so many features from Kool G Rap and AZ, it makes a great red thread throughout the whole album.

    EASILY album of the year. Easily. This album is absolutely insane. The ONLY reason why I wouldn't give this thing a 100% perfect score is because of the weird musical interludes and because I felt Pieces To The Puzzle (although not a bad song) didn't quite fit in with the overall sound of the album and it was kind of jarring. Otherwise this thing is GLORIOUS. AZ absolutely shines as aEASILY album of the year. Easily. This album is absolutely insane.

Otherwise this thing is GLORIOUS. AZ absolutely shines as a recurring special guest. The concept of the album was dope and the live instrumentation provided by the Revelations was just that... a revelation. The first track of this thing floored me, lush jaw dropping production. Great album and everything I want from the Ghost.… Expand

    With awesome recurrent guest features from Kool G Rap and AZ, Ghostface's pure skills on the mic, the quality of the content of his verses and a pretty good production, 36 seasons is one of the best Ghostface albums yet.

    Surprisingly marginalised on the latest Wu effort, Ghostface Killah proves he's fighting fit on this gritty, organic partnership. [Feb 2015, p.88]

    It’s not the second coming of Ironman, but tracks such as Love Don’t Live Here No More, Emergency Procedure, Homicide and Blood On The Streets make this one of the best Wu-related releases of recent years, confirming Ghostface as its most consistently engaging member.

    His flow is solid on this album, and there’s no reason to suggest Ghostface is done, but if he is trying to recapture something, all we get here is sound and fury.
