Pros: Dope beats, mind blowing lyrics, top 5 hip-hop album of all time

This album goes to the top 5 if not less of some of the best hip-hop albums ever. He comes with tyte lyrical skills. He shows the gift of gab and brings it to the EMPTH degree. He proves it by a song where he rhymes with the alphabet from A-G. It is...
