If I'm not mistaken, this album was originally intended to be a mixtape. I think it should have stayed that way. I say that not because the music is bad, but because it lacks the cohesion of an album. Eminem does a good job of introducing new Shady artists on the intro, but after that all that tracks seem to have been just thrown together with minimal consideration for sequencing. Obie's "Pistol Pistol (Remix)" was solid as well as "You Don't Know" which help introduce Cashis to the mainstream. However, other than Eminem's "No Apologies," there aren't really many standout songs here. But the fact that Eminem drew the album cover makes up for a bit of it.
