Vinnie's new album is still on near-constant rotation.  When I first heard it I fucking hated it cos it sounded too different.  That is always an ironclad way of knowing that the album is golden.  Vinnie has grown as an artist and that is perfectly exemplified on the new album.  Paying homage to Scarface & Mobb Deep and having DJ Premier is undoubtedly the old-schoolers nodding their head to what Vinnie and the AOTP has accomplished in the past fifteen years. I fucking love this album.
