Personal album or not, I dont see nothing wrong with vintage tracks like Loco Motive, Nasty, Don etc.
You gotta expect some people would have also complained if he didnt have street records in place of personal records. Long as he can find a balance its fine.

Damn. See I have a love/hate relationship with the internets. I love the fact that we get the latest info, unreleased tracks, etc. But damn I havent actually heard an album without having heard at least four songs before the release since the 90's lol. For me it kills the experience of going to the store, ripping the plastic off, putting the cd in, looking at the artwork and gettin blown away by the intro. Before all we got was the street single, then the radio single. And that's it.

I remember me and my homie riding around to It Was Written. All we heard beforehand was If I Ruled the World and a snippet of The Message (only bc it was in the video). All I heard off this is Nasty & Daughters. I dont want to spoil it, but damn its hard to resist. 14 more days...

Sounds like a streak is about to be broken playboy. Salute. :win:

As long as you have some self-restraint, you're good. I've only heard Nasty, The Don, and Daughters. :obama:
