Rating: - Real dissapointing, ignore this

After all the years of waiting this was a real let down. Any real fans of Meth and the Wutang sound will want to give this one a miss.

Rating: - Appalling

If you're like me, you will ultimately feel that meth seriously needs to give it up now and not ruin his legendary Wu affiliation. All of y'all that say this album is good, don't know what youre talking bout and as that othr reviewer said...its straight up "hip pop". Meth falling off...Dont get this trash

Rating: - Ultimately disappointing

I bought this album based on the strength of 'whats happnin', and i immidiately banged out the tune on my stereo once i had purchased it. Scanning the disc pack, i spotted 'We some dogs' featuring redman and snoop dogg. Delighted, i skipped to it immidiately, but was gutted. It was awful. I see no point in lying-this is the worst, weakest rap ive heard for a while and by such a good combination of artists. Bitterly disappointed, i skipped to 'the turn' which again failed to impress, likewise with many of the other tracks. 'The motto', 'The show', 'rodeo' and 'whats happnin' are the only bright tracks. Even the songs featuring missy elliot and ghostface killah were a drag.......
Mega disappointment for me, and will be for wu-tang/method fans alike. Extremely average.

Come in Meth youre time is up. This is weak, there's no other way to put it. This album is so hip-pop it's actually a disgrace that any member of the Wu would even want to put their name to it. It's reminiscent of LL Cool J's Phenomenon. Remember that? No? And why should you? That was also an album that enlisted a whole bunch of other rappers including one Busta Rhymes who merely shouted 'flip-mode' a lot. The Busta track is weak and it really is a Busta track and not a Meth track. None of the tracks give Meth a platform. The Missy, Ludacris and Snoop tracks are just cheap throwaway 3 minutes singles. Quite frankly Meth spoils an otherwise flawless rap from Raekwon and the only great track is afterparty because Ghostface is quite simply untouchable.If you love Eminem and tripe like that then you'll love this. If however,you've ever loved the Wu avoid this like the proverbial plague.

Rating: - So disappointing

Method Man is possibly my favourite rapper of all time, the way he flows is so unique that listening to him is fun and inspiring. Or at least the way he used to flow. Compare this awful, commercial album to his performances on Enter the Wu-Tang, the original Tical, even on the more recent Blackout! with Redman. He sounds lazy and uninspiring over mostly terrible beats.

The only highlights are The Turn, which sounds like an old Wu-Tang record, Afterparty, and What's Happenin. Maybe The Show and Never Hold Back are listenable as well but besides that this sucks.
Thank God that he's getting RZA to produce his next album, don't bother with this.
