This album is rowdy, and it clearly delivers the high every rapping and stellar production that M.O.P. followers have come to expect. DJ Premier's board work is excellent as usual. He even samples Jimi Hendrix's "Burning of the Midnight Lamp" on "Follow Instructions." "Ante Up" was a great single, but I think album's strongest points are the Fizzy Womack-produced cuts, "Calm Down" and "Cold as Ice" which sample Nona Hendryx and Foreigner respectively.
