I don't understand the problems with the voice.

Only one I truly dis-like is the "BIOOOTCH" macho man randy savage shyt (and that shyt only 30 seconds)

I could understand someone disliking his voice is M.a.a.d City... but that's probably the dopest song.. And that voice expresses the emotion of the song.. Nervousness, fear, anger.
like i said, the use of the "special voices" don't bother me on the songs themselves. he kinda makes it make sense for each ones and it fits and adds to the song in a good way. but he does it so much at different instances on the album that it feels a little annoying after a while.

the only song where it really irritates me for some reason is Swimming Pools, lol. I understand what he was trying to do and eventhough it only lasts a few bars it fukks up the vibe of the song for me. Maybe he could have done the voices slightly less "expressive". In other words change the voice a little bit to achieve the purpose in the context of the song but not to the point where it sounds "corny"


but i actually liked the voice he did on Mad City a little bit. it really fit the vibe of the beat. Maybe he should have went a tiny bit less expressive but at that point it would be nitpicking.

It was a well put together themed album that you rarely see these years.
I disliked the last couple of songs towards the end of the album, you know with Dre ad MJB.
This is something to sit and listen too instead if songs made for the club all the time.
Can't really picture anyone driving around blasting this.
But this album is good for hip hop.
I'm impressed.
