My favorite tracks on this album are Lessons (great beat, YV is a little more patient on the mic on this track, the result is nice), She Keeps Calling Me (standard Wanz right here) and The Burn Ward (standard D-Sane adrenaline laced track right here).
The production on this album was good, the lyrical content was just fine. The reason I am not as big a YV fan as I am most artists who regularly work with SLR/Mr. D-Sane is really a combination of YV's voice and what I think sometimes is a tendency to rush/try too hard on the microphone. The tracks that I liked were the ones where he slowed down a little bit, where his timing was best. But really, rap music is a lot like sports, there is a lot you can do to make yourself better but a good bit of it is always going to be god given and beyond the MC's control. YV reminds me a lot of Notes, who is another one of the SLR artists I'm not feeling most of the time (although he has grown on me, he's dropped some sick verses on projects following the Dividenz album), for the same reason. Their voices are very similar to me, and regardless of the beat or how clever the lyrics are, a rapper's voice is a very very important part of who they are.
Now I'm really glad everybody on here is feeling the album, I know what a great feeling it is to come home from work and have some new slumps to throw on. I wish him all the success in the world in his school, music whatever. He won't be one of the guys I bump with a lot of frequency but whatever, I'm glad other people feel otherwise.
