The first song I ever heard form that album was Halftime, that shit was mind blowing. Then I heard the album, wow is all I have to say about that. I was 13 at the time and it changed the way I listen to rap forever. That's why to this day it's in my top 3 favorite albums of all time.
Can't say that I fucks with him, but that Why Even Try song is kinda growing on me. Maybe it's the 80's style beat. Def not the lyrics though. It's cool for what it is but it's not all that.
