    This is good. Obviously not ten years worth of hype good but better than it probably should be after such a long time.

    Hov is in rare form on this

    Listened to it twice so far. It's fine. Listening to somebody who pledged his fealty to rich people a long time ago try to be radical through ethno-nationalism hotep stuff is interesting. Hov sounds like he did his verses through a prison phone. Never need to hear him say photic reflex again lol. It's a consistent album. I can't say there were many highs or lows.

    Jay Electronica dropping a decade too late in an era of melodic rap is just so funny to me

    Wish this was better, it's still partially great just cause both Jay's are just phenomenal when it comes to the mic. It's messy and somewhat uncohesive, makes me wonder If he just rushed this to put something out there.

    I do hope we get the remaining ancient tracks in some shape or form from that Act II tracklist, it says a lot that Shiny Suit Theory has practically been ageless after all these years (honestly all those other leaks were beyond stellar too).

    Not really sure how I feel about this yet. I need to give it some more spins to take in the lyrics more but my initial reaction is that I should be more excited about a jay/jay collab album + not much here gripped me as much as the leaks/loosies from 2009-2011 era jay elec.
