How nikkas don't like Hard? shyt might be my favorite track. Hilarious & dope at the same time.
Off first listen this feels more cohesive than Success Is Certain. Probably a step below Street Hop though.
Tabernacle , Pray, Wait, Shine, Layers and Quiet are probably the highlights so far. Will see how this growa on me from further listens.

I thought it was a dope story track. Royce stay shytting on his Wife in his raps.
nikka is way too honest about his dirt
album gets alot better with each listen. Ive been so use to listenin to rappers with straight forward rhyme cadences and pockets that it took me a while to get back use to Royce's style. the way son finds these pockets in the beat are simply amazing ("Shine" and "Flesh" in particular). also hooks have always been a weak thing in royce's albums but this album's hooks are all pretty cool to me.
On my 2nd listen. Liking it more. It's better than Success is Certain for sure. It's going to take a while to see where it ranks against Street Hop. It's not better than Death is Certain, but I don't think any new Royce album can be.

Huge Royce fan, but this shyt is a big disappointment. Only 5 songs I really like, and the rest are straight up trash. The production on here too weak for the heat dude is spitting.
Death Is Certain still his best album, and a personal classic of mine.
