o my ladies, o my gentlemen, let it be known that these are the words of a man whose response to any part of the 20-year career of e-40 is "no thanks".
o my fellow ilxors great and good, there is hardly then any need to put it to you that these are therefore the words of a man whose statements concerning rap cannot be trusted without the gravest of misconceptions ensuing.
idk man seems pretty good to me

i like the 'scope' beat its like 'everyday struggle' vibe w/ less hard drums
― NOT FUNNY NEEDS MORE GUCCI (deej), Saturday, 28 August 2010 01:05 (thirteen years ago) link
i dig the "everyday struggle" beat -- the synths are a bit corny, but i don't see anything wrong with the beat as a whole
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 28 August 2010 01:13 (thirteen years ago) link
naw i love the synths -- they make the beat imo

i love the production on this album (the live instruments are a great touch) but I still don't "get" curren$y completely... he's obviously a goo rapper but his delivery/voice is just soooooooo monotonous and boring. i feel like all of the people who've jacked his style (wayne, wiz, etc.) do "curren$y" better than curren$y does

this is kinda how I feel after two listens...it's like I wouldn't even mind if you went off on some backpack spaceshuttle out there type stuff but the tropes are so standard and he's got no swagger at all
(yes yes I know check the mixtapes out maybe I will, later)

wow the e-40 album is massive
love love the beat on 'over the stove'
― ciderpress, Sunday, 29 August 2010 15:25 (thirteen years ago) link
that twinkly arpeggio makes the 'life under the scope' beat for me and it's mixed too low to hear or gone completely in the youtube/single version

i think 'pilot talk' starts & ends really well -- the middle portion is kinda soft tho -- "seat change" beat is one of my least favorite of the year
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 26 October 2010 21:51 (thirteen years ago) link
michael knight is aight but that song w/ fiend is so dope
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 26 October 2010 21:58 (thirteen years ago) link
Hmmm, I actually feel like it takes a few tracks to really warm up. And that's including "Seat Change," which I agree is a bit weak. After that, though? My favorite three-track sequence on the album is right in the middle: "Roasted" (love the juxtaposition of hungry articulate rapping w/ that super-mellow weed-haze wood flute)->"Skybourne"->"Hangover."
― jaymc, Tuesday, 26 October 2010 22:05 (thirteen years ago) link
"Address" should be the closer, to be honest. Switch the order of that and "Life Under the Scope," which has a kind of dinky beat, and you have a great closer.
