This is my first review! I am going to keep this quite brief, but I thought this would be the perfect album to kick off my reviews.
I mean, where do I even start? For this duo to have not dropped in 15+ years and then deliver with such an amazing performance is incredible! Every verse from Push and Malice was incredible, but I especially liked a lot of Malice’s verses. If that wasn’t enough, every single feature was also legendary.

First, I want to say that I definitely see why people say this is one of the best albums of the 2020s. This album is of gourmet level quality all throughout (yeah, I had to do that). Freddie & Uncle Al have great chemistry, and I loved the incredible production The Alchemist provided. Very chill album overall, and I'm excited to see what Alfredo 2 has in store!
I actually love this album so much. It's not anything lyrically crazy, but Joey and Brae had fun on here, and that's what matters. Joey's production is also amazing.
