    His best moments are scary in a different way: "In my city we talk heavy and die young," he raps on "The Trillest." It's a message that booms out louder than life.

    Some of the strongest songs on this up-and-down album sound like lost 1998 Stretch and Bobbito freestyles.

    This is one to spin a couple of times, then never again.

It started off really strong with an epicThat was really well made pop rap album, but it didn't brought to the table ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING. It started off really strong with an epic song witch angelic choir in the background (Lord Knows) but it fell off pretty fast with "club.banger.ft.Future.nr.77" and "club.banger.ft.Chris.Brown.nr.144". And I hate to say, that all these trap influenced tracks (nr.'s 7,8,10,11 on the track list) felt pretty dated. In 2012 this could be dope, but now it's just not interesting at all. Well, "R.I.C.O" was an awesome track, but totally dominated by Drake (even beat seemed like it was made for Graham), Rick Ross verse on "Been That" was kinda nice, and Nicki's guest appearances were decent too (but she definitely better raps than sings), Chris Brown was Chris Brown- nothing much more to say, and The Weekend's hook was pretty typical for him (Diddy and future didn't amaze me). Meek Mill was pretty ok by himself, his kinda over dramatic flow made him feel really hungry ("The Thrillest"(!!!)), but nothing he said was amazing.Overall, it was nicely done album, but it was kinda dated and generic.

    3/10 only because of Drake's featuring and first track on this album. I didn't expect too much from Meek Mill and it's like I thought.

    This is the first album from Meek Mill I listen to its entirerty, and I was surprised at how good it was. Some tracks were forgetful, butThis is the first album from Meek Mill I listen to its entirerty, and I was surprised at how good it was. Some tracks were forgetful, but never bad, and the guest apperances from Nikki Minaj and Chris Brown are not bad at all, while The Weekend and Future's apperances are great. Some hip-Hop cliches and lack of innovations and some not-so solid tracks keep it from being great, but it is still worth a listen, and if you're a fan of hip-hop, it won't dissapoint

    Highlights :
    - Pullin up
    - Lord Knows
