Creative, and not the worst of recent mixtape releases mix-wise. Lyrics have substance but still resonate with the "rapper who talks about issues he might not really be at home with" crowd. Full of government this-and-that conjecture and anti-gentrification sentiment. Kind of annoying, but still was good to ear some good 'ol Talib. Oh, and Talib, you might want to stay away from singing R.E.M. ever again. Otherwise, thanks for the free music. I listen to it regularly.
