I'm pretty sure I have listened to this album in full before, but it's been at least 15 years. As usual for me with Missy, I love her Hip-Hop tracks, but when she leans more into the R&B stuff, she kinda loses me. Usually, the tracks that focus on R&B are at least produced by Timbaland well enough to at least be meh for me. It ultimately will lower the album scores from me, unfortunately. Overall, I thought it was a pretty good album, with two of my top 5 Missy tracks in ... read more

I'm ashamed to admit, as a Wu-Tang fan, that I've never listened to this album in full. I knew 2 of the tracks, but everything else was most likely a first-time listen.

I was hoping for it to be at least as entertaining to me as the previous release, No Limit Top Dogg, but I just was not vibing with this one at all. The beats were a bit boring for my taste, and none of the tracks stood out at all; they kind of all meshed together for me. Lay Low is my favourite on the record, but there really wasn't much to pick from imo. It's weird how I never would have ... read more
