    Far too often on Mo’ Mega he seems unsure of quite where he’s heading and, altogether, the LP fails to reach any sort of feeling of transcendence.

This Mr. Lif may not be reaching for the political stars and inspiration of his previous album but "Mo' Mega" is my favorite kind of LP. This is a album that has been conceived not track-by- track but as a complete effort.

    If this album didn't have the lyrics in the liner notes, I probably would have played this album once and then forgotten about it; If this album didn't have the lyrics in the liner notes, I probably would have played this album once and then forgotten about it; El-P's beats are that ill-fitting (not bad, but Lif doesn't sound comfortable on them).… Full Review »
