    I can't do a track by track rating, but this album is pretty close to perfect based on my first few listens. Dre just dropped the best produced album since MBDTF, and 2001 before it. How many switch ups and moods does each track carry? It's r-----ed. How perfect is every contributor utilized? This guy f----- around and made a 2 bar Eazy-E sample the highlight of the whole album smh.

    And his performance on these tracks, wow. Half a century old and he's rapping these bars better than he was 16 years ago. His mic presence is GOAT.

    10/10 album. If you fa----s gave TPAB a 10 on first listen, I can give this joint a 10 as well.

    I think it will be, there are so many small things that you come to appreciate on subsequent listens. This part is a moment:

    Word to my n----- Eazy

    [Interlude: Eazy-E]
    Eazy-E CPT OG from the other side (Eazy)
    From the other side (Eazy)

    [Hook: Marsha Ambrosius]
    It's easy to say you need me

    The end of Issues as well. The Deep Water to One Shot One k--- transition. The switch up on the Eminem verse. :wow:

    so i played it non-stop for about a day and I have to say every track is almost perfect. I also want to piss some people off, so this album is better than MBDTF and GKMC.

    I dont usually give ratings on s--- because i s--- at it but i will try.

    Talk About it - 9/10 - Really like this, and the beat is dope as f---. Its a trap style beat but on a higher level than these trap beats we hear everywhere. Also hearing Justus doing it good made me think he will not s---.
    Genocide - 8.5/10 -
    All On Me - 9.5/10
    All In A Days Work - 9/10 - Does the melody remind you of "Never Be Friends" by The Game ?
    Darkside/Gone - 10/10 - Eazy motherfucking E. Epic moment. I cant tell you how i felt when i heard Eazy on here and the piano on Gone is just beautiful. Maybe the first beat that reminded me of something from Chronic 2001.
    Loose Canon - 10/10 - Was suprised to see Cold 187um on this album and he f---ing delivered. The beat switch and Xzibit going in was just some next level s---.
    Issues - 8.5/10 - They used the sample in a cool way and Ice Cube and Dre goes in.
    Deep Water - 10/10 - Another trap style beat just on a higher level like i said before, f---ing dope. Kendrick absolutely killed this.
    One Shot One k--- - 10/10 - When i heard this track for the first time i was reading comments on S80 so i didnt concentrate 100% and was like where the f--- was Snoop, then i relistened and was like WTF, that was Snoop ? Killed it and so did Jon Connor
    Just Another Day - 10/10 - Game should always rap like this. Im really hyped for Documentary 2. I always love Games stuff, people say he fell of but he always drop some 10/10 songs imo. If not on his albums then on his mixtapes.
    For The Love Of Money - 9/10 - I immediately thought about the Bone Thugs N Hamony track featuring Eazy E. Jon Connor doesnt disappoint.
    Satisfaction - 8/10 -
    Animals - 10/10 - Really loved Anderson .Paak on this one. The beat is really good and the ending is dope with Dj Premier on the turntable.
    Medicine Man - 8/10 - The beat switch was great and Eminem started out really good but later on when the bass hits he sounds like he went off beat a little. I still liked this part though
    Talking To My Diary - 10/10 - Strong ending to the album with a Dre solo. Fantastic beat and the ending is beautiful. Kinda sad that this is the ending of his last project though.

    High ratings, but this is how i feel about this album.

    Intro - 10
    Talk To Me - 8 - beat is hard. Wish he'd started more west coast though
    Genocide - 9.5 - d---. God d---.
    All On Me - 9 -f--- yes. Calm Dre rapping. Love it.
    All In A Day's Work - 10 - this and all on me are so f---ing smooth. I know they don't stand out, but I love hearing him rap like this. This 4 song stretch might be might favorite (genocide-gone)
    Darkside / Gone - 10 - like fuuuuck. The Eazy moment is what I've waited this long for
    Loose Cannon - 9 - so hard. Great X verse. Arrangement of song shows dre's greatness
    Issues - 8.5 - didn't even sound like Cube at the start! Enjoyed it but not one I keep going back to
    Deep Water - 9.5 - beat is whoa. Kendrick....yup
    One Shot One k--- - 9 - really happy with this snoop verse. Really really happy
    Just Another Day - 9 - wish we got a Dre/Game song. But this verse/chorus is filthy
    For The Love Of Money - 8.5 - I see why it's good. But it hasn't captured me yet.
    Satisfiction - 9 - another killer snoop verse. This stretch of songs is very good, but the lack of very much Dre over the 4 over 5 songs makes it slightly less entertaining than the rest of the album for me.
    Animals - 9 - amazing song, I could have used a bit more Dre. But it's fantastic anyway.
    Medicine Man - 9.5 - love the beat switch and start of Em's verse
    Talkin To My Diary - 10 - thank you Dre. This song is how you end a career.

    Guys. There are no words to describe this amazing album. Best album since the MMLP IMO. I actually cannot believe it. The album brought me to tears of enjoyment.

    Genocide, Darkside/Gone, Deep Water, Animals and Talking to My Diary are absolute top tier songs. Medicine Man is close as well, Em's verse just dragged on a little too far though.
