    9th Wonder and Buckshot have delivered a plate of comfort food that fans will enjoy, if not necessarily savor.

    The Solution finds Buckshot doing a better job than in his past two at-bats to keep up with the super producer, and he does so by using his relaxed spitting as an anchor.

    The Solution doesn't differ from the previous instalments at all. If you're a fan of either artist then it is certainly worth picking up.

    The nostalgia and artistry will take you back and warm your Coogi-covered heart.

    It's a gritty, soulful sound that holds The Solution together, seemingly aspiring to be nothing more than "Boot Camp meets Little Brother": familiar and stress-free for an audience seeking a vintage feel in their hip-hop.

    The Solution once again combines Buckshot and 9th Wonder's accomplished and refined skill sets as pioneers of the '90s and the past decade respectively.

    Although The Solution is too hung up on the past to be relevant in the present, it remains a competent throwback to hip-hop's golden age, an era that both artists seem to be yearning for. That nostalgia pervades The Solution.
