DJ P. Cutta put together a solid collection of Roc-A-Fella battle records. It starts strong with Jay-Z rhyming his "Dear Summer" rap over Black Rob's "Can I Live" instrumental and his classic "Takeover" record. Not long after, the "Drop It Like It's Hot (Remix)" comes in and Jay gets the last word on R. Kelly. Other Roc-A-Fella artists make notable contributions (especially Beanie Sigel). However, as far as straight rhymes, no one tops Hov. The last strong point on the tape is the infamous "Superugly." It's good, but not great- especially when compared to Nas' "Ether." Overall, this is a good compilation of diss songs courtesy of the house that Dame, Biggs, and Jay built.
