There are some tracks on this album that do have that "pop" feel, but they aren't as bad as some of his past tracks, either. I'll name off what I like the best... but this is actually one of the cd's I have that I can actually listen to every song on the CD and like.
-New York ft. Fat Joe
-Life Goes On ft. Trick Daddy
-Bout My Business
-Last of the Mohicans
-Passion
And I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I actually liked more tracks off of "R.U.L.E." than I did off of "Encore". I went out and paid for Ja's album after I heard it, but after hearing Em's, I was glad I didn't run out and buy it and instead have a burned copy from a buddy of mine.
