    It feels like a middling album that would've made an incredible EP, but when Wiley thrills, he really thrills. [Jul 2018, p.116]

    There’s more introspection as the album broadens out, and an appealing honesty about his greed in his chart-topping years, but he often stops short of serious self-analysis.

    Although some of Godfather II stays true to a classic sound--see the authoritative I Call the Shots, feat JME--other tracks, such as Certified, feat Shakka (a banger), are unabashed lunges for the mainstream.

    Godfather II isn't bad, but coming after a career highlight, it's quite disappointing.

    Though it boasts hard-hitting moments (see the supple uppercut of ‘Been A While’ and the dizzying double-jab of the JME-featuring ‘Call the Shots’), this sequel lacks the punch of its predecessor.
