Delivers exactly what you'd expect. Some pot references, lots of great battle raps, well-chosen party beats. Meth has been on a winning streak since Wu-Tang Clan's last album, 8 Diagrams. His chemistry with Red is unparalleled, and it seems that hearing the two rap never gets old. "Mrs. International" is a fine R&B rap, while "Errbody Scream" is a great rave-up. Surprisingly, Redman squeezes a Christopher Reeve reference that doesn't feel like a labored cry for attention (eat it, Eminem) on "Dangerous Emcees" ("But I'm naughty like Tommy Boy Go back like Atari cords, still here, shit Superman ended up in a wheelchair"). It's those moments that make or break the experience, since this album's not all that different in tone or content than the original Blackout!.
