    I think it's interesting to see how much more this album has become appreciated with time/since Thug's string of solo releases, at least from what I've noticed. When I first heard it I only liked a handful of songs on it, and it grew from there. I can listen to it two years later and become more amazed at how fantastic it is every time.

    Quan is underappreciated by a lot of people on here as well.

    Listened to this a week or so ago but forgot to rate. As someone mentioned earlier, it's crazy that this was considered "selling out" back then by some people. It's a lot more accessible than Illmatic, but that doesn't take away from it. It might no be the perfect 10 quintessential rap album Illmatic is, but it's a more-than-worthy successor. It's hard to argue against an album with The Message, If I Ruled the World, and Affirmative Action.

    9/10

    Summer Knights shows a lot of progression rapping- and maturity-wise, but doesn't quite match up to B4DA$$ in that sense and is missing an element of fun that made 1999 and Peep the APROcalypse so endearing. It's an OK album that you'll enjoy if you're a big Joey fan, but it's not something I'd find myself revisiting much.

    6/10

    7.5/10

    I actually prefer this mixtape over 1999. It's a very nostalgic project for me of when I was on a cruise 3 years back. There are a lot of highlights for me including Trap Door, 95 Till Infinity, and Reign which are my top 3. While there aren't any songs I dislike on here, I would score it higher if it was shortened and more condense.

    Thankfully most of the people with awful opinions don't read the rules so their votes don't count.

    OK this tape is real good but a 10? What makes this a MBDTF or an Only Built 4 Cuban Linx or a Blueprint?

    7.8

    It's probably the easiest project of his to digest, there's a good amount of excellent songs on here and in usual Gates fashion there's rarely ever a moment of dullness. My score isn't really reflective of how I really feel about it, but he does have better projects that I hold in high regard.
