I don't know the number of gay or trans folks who want to do a Wu-Tang discog run, but in case you are one and you're reading these words right now - skip this.

One of his weakest for me, production and lyrically. Key tracks: Killa Killa Hill (ft. Raekwon), Get Away From the Door (ft. Inspectah Deck) ; but, they're only the 'key tracks' for the features. Capp's phoning it in with lyrical interpolations of 'C.R.E.A.M' and throwaway bars throughout, and the production simply isn't good.

This album really varies in quality. The highs are comparable to the highs on The Yin and The Yang, but the lows are straight up some of his worst songs. The production overall is pretty weak, and Cappadonna is inconsistent. Features are usually great tho. Def worth listening to a handful of the songs.

Best Tracks: Role of a Lifetime, Get Away From the Door, Killa Killa Hill, Power to the Peso
Worst Tracks: I Don't Even Know You, Life Of A Lesbo
