The fusion of rap and rock works a fair amount of the time, but the combination of the two very often sounds deliberate. However, in the case of this album, it sounds very organic and that makes for a very enjoyable listen. Not only does Everlast rap like he did with House of Pain, but he also infuses rock and a touch of folk and blues. "Ends", "Hot to Death", and "What It's Like" are all outstanding. Considering his heart condition and the surgery that followed while making this album, it's a very personal recording. Without question, it is Everlast's best work to date.
