My thoughts, lots of sick songs, but a little too much new hiphop infuence (Autotune, stupid rhymes)

All in all good album

What did you all think

Fuck off noob.

The album is SICK!
Hell, its no Bad Dream's, but it's a new approach and i love it. My Life and Reclaim the Throne have to be my favourite. Lyricly well written and im glad they finally released some new shit. Mad child is now viewed a little more bitch in my mind because all he does is sing his sob story in half the songs, but it is still ill.

For anyone who hasnt bought/downloaded it yet, i highly suggest it!

Overall i would say it's a solid album. I have to agree with you on the slight overuse of things like autotune. However i noticed that that songs later in the album have much less of this. I give it an 8 out of 10. On the other hand, some of the subject matter is a bit racy, so if you are still in high school, you might want to avoid it.

Check out Mad Childs EP, My Life is actually from that album.  And I agree about mad child.  Though I have to say, some of his tracks on the EP really show (sorry to be cliche) his demons in drug abuse and just his life struggle.  I have to have some sympathy for him.

I agree it is a bit harsh, but he shouldnt sing about being so tough and shit, and show his insecturities at the same time.

And shit thanks, ill find that right now!
