This is a personal classic to me, Nicolay's production is real smooth, Phonte is the perfect MC for the album, he fits well. This might sound corny but if I'm ever in a ****ty mood I throw this on and it instantly puts me at ease, real relaxing, laid back **** to listen to.

Love this album, if I were to rate it on a general scale it'd probably get a 8/10, but like I said it's a personal classic to me.

Here's a few of my favorite tracks off of it:

it's an excellent album
i always say that Little Brother makes that feel good music and this effort is no exception.
i am actually so pleased to hear men big up the album because typically it is music like this that i have to constantly be advocating to males.
