This really snuck up on me. I didn't even know it was due out then suddenly I'm seeing reviews on the web.
It's pretty good, the guest spots are all stellar and there's plenty of them. Which is also the flaw for me; the usually-tight and unbreakable Wu cipher seems to be loosening, and most of the key members don't even appear on tracks with each other.
Still, a nice LP and more underground than they've been for a little while. Gives some well-deserved shine to people like Roc Marciano and Action Bronson, and the production and rhymes from the clan themselves are as sharp and solid as ever.
