Despite Royce's beef with D12 at the time, that fortunately did not overshadow his debut album. Lyrically, he's one of the best and his beat selection does a good job of showcasing that skill. "Boom" is a great record and "Rock City," with Slim Shady on the hook, does an excellent job of creating a catchy chorus without compromising quality verses. "Life" is a deep song which finds its counterbalance in "My Friend" which is an ode to his genitals. Overall, this album does a wonderful job of presenting Royce as a well-rounded emcee. It's no surprise he's still successfully making music 10 years later.
