This album's old, but bottom line, Mef gets love. Well, who knows what to expect these days from an album from Mef. I def didn't expect this one here. Mr. M-E-F ("cuz black people don't use the 't-h'") brings it for real on this one. "Is It Me" no doubt highlights the album with production by Scott Storch, this track just fits Meth's style perfectly. He continues with classic Meth sounding tracks with beats that capture your full attention and completely surround his smoothed out and slightly less gritty flow. He eventually gets to "Dirty Mef", which of course features the late ODB and just brings back memories. Dope features from Streelife, Raekwon, U-god, La the Darkman, Redman, RZA and of course the Inspectah. Ginuwine contributes a great smooth R&B hook on "Lets Ride" while a Lauryn Hill sample on "Say" provides a hook for Mef to attack his critics. "Gotta Have It" is a fun track about all the things Mef loves, while "Ya'Meen" is a hardcore NY anthem with Fat Joe and Styles P. If it seems like this is an all-star album, it is. This goes down as another Wu-tang classic.
9/10
