I have a lot of faith in the production this time around.

:noah: Please let the RZA beat and AZ appearance make the final cut.

Here My Dear was an album Marvin Gaye recorded after his divorce. The judge actually made him record an album so his ex-wife would get the royalties from the album sales for her alimony.

Marv made a whole album pretty much shytting on his wife and chronicling his divorce.

It's a classic album, man. Must listen for all music fans.

Woah that is crazy

I dunno...thats why I dont like this as the cover for the album. All his interviews he's been on some positive, happy, cheerful type vibe...then he names the album Life Is Good yet the cover is representing a painful moment in his life and his facial expression doesnt convey the message that life is in fact good.

Clever, but I dont think it fits.

Cover just represents from where he left off since Untitled. It's like he's taking us back to go through all the changes in his life (Divorce, not seeing his son, tax issues, etc)... but despite everything he went through, Life is Good :ahh:

Its supposed to be ironic, nothing else. The green wedding dress and his solemn expression with the black couches are supposed to represent unhappiness, but the album title is "Life is Good". Not no bragging about L's and shyt.

cant wait for nasty to drop some fresh air on the game

The only thing I am concerend about is the number of tracks salaam has anything to do with. Every once in awhile he makes a good track, but he's pretty much one of the main reasons why a lot of heads stopped checking for Nas. His beats are so bland, and I recognize that a lot of that has to do with Nas having a bad ear for music. When I hear a beat like The Joy from WTT, I just can't help but think what if Nas was getting production like this on his albums.
