    1.) Spadez Interlude | 2.5 - 3
    2.) When The Smoke Clears | 3
    - I like the production and hook, not so much the rapping.
    3.) Cold As Ice | 2.25 - 3
    4.) Bulletproof (ft. Yelawolf) | 3 - 3.75
    5.) Thousand Poundz (ft. Pill & Pusha T) | 4
    - Pill takes over this track from the get-go.
    6.) Heartz Interlude | 1.25 - 2
    - I get the interludes, but seriously?
    7.) New Girl (ft. Trey Songz) | 2.75 - 3
    8.) End Of The Night | 3.25 - 4
    9.) Right Side Of The Bed | 4 - 4.25
    - The beat faintly kinda sounds like "Aston Martin Music".
    10.) Sunday Morning | 4.5 - 5
    - The hook is hilarious, but not only that, I actually enjoy all aspects of this song.
    11.) Clubz Interlude | 2 - 2.25
    12.) Dance | 3 - 3.25
    13.) Fightin' In The Club | 1
    - This song DRAGS.
    14.) Emotional (ft. Tity Boi) | 2 - 2.5
    15.) Made Me Who I Am | 3.75 - 4
    16.) Diamondz Interlude | 2 - 2.75
    17.) Take You Back | 3.5 - 4
    18.) Woopty Doo (ft. Big Sean) | 4
    - I love this beat.
    19.) Beautiful Mind | 3.25 - 4
    - I love THIS beat too.
    20.) Stadium (ft. B.o.B) | 2.5 - 3

    Overall: 3.08/5

    Brief Notes:
    - I wish Kanye would have signed J. Cole instead of these boring guys like Big Sean and Cyhi da Prynce. My first comment under "When The Smoke Clears" can apply to the entire tape basically; I like the production and hook(s), but not the rapping. Cyhi just seems to really force his punchlines in and his delivery is a real snooze. There are some surprises, like "Sunday Morning", but I got pretty much what I expected with Royal Flush 2.

      Not sure if I'd put Dreamerz on All Of Me level though it is a dope track.
      Yeah Dreamerz is dope but a step below Dumb Out or All of Me.

        I'm not sure if I'd put Dreamerz with Inseperable

          I feel the same way about Jeezy...I can only tolerate so much of him before all his songs start sounding the same. I haven't checked out Real is Back yet, but that Ive heard that Ballin song its tight

            I usually like Jeezy as well. When I heard the Ballin song when it first came out I wasn't too into it. Maybe I'll like it when I go to listen to the tape soon.

              The Statik-Free EP - Freeway & Statik Selektah
              Peanut Butter & Swelly - Chiddy Bang
              Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang - Raekwon

              The list of shit still needed to be reviewed. I'm thinking of writing a full review for Lil B's new album (lol) but if I change my mind, the condensed version will come after the Gibbs EP.

                  You should probably take those off your review queue at this point.

                    1.) #jetsgo | 4.75 - 5
                    - Curren$y really knows how to make a damn intro.
                    2.) Still (ft. Trademark & Young Roddy) | 3 - 3.25
                    3.) She Don't Want A Man | 4 - 4.75
                    4.) One Life | 3 - 3.5
                    5.) You See It | 2 - 2.5
                    6.) Televised (ft. Fiend & International Jones) | 4.25 - 5
                    7.) This Is The Life | 4.5 - 5
                    - Hey Spitta, remember your friend Wiz? He'd be perfect for this hook.
                    8.) On G's (ft. Young Roddy & Trademark) | 4 - 4.25
                    - Maybe it's just me, but Curren$y kinda sounds like J. Cole on here.

                    10.) What's What | 2.5 - 3

                    Overall: 3.81/5

                    Brief Notes:
                    - Another day, another good Curren$y release. Dude just knows how to make enjoyable music.

                      1.) Intro (ft. Slaine) | 3 - 3.25
                      2.) Lord Giveth, Lord Taketh Away | 4 - 4.75
                      3.) Rap Money (ft. Daz) | 3 - 3.5
                      4.) Affiliated (ft. Reks & PUSH! Montana) | 4 - 4.25
                      5.) Wild Style (ft. Termanology & Fred The Godson) | 3 - 3.25
                      - How did Fred The Godson make the XXL list?
                      6.) Already (ft. Trae Tha Truth) | 4
                      7.) Keep It Warm For Ya (ft. Smoke DZA & Chace Infinite) | 4

                      Overall: 3.71/5

                      Brief Notes:
                      - This is a nice listen, but won't be placed among Gibbs' best projects. Still, for a 24-hour project, it's pretty nice.

                        I know this is a bit old but what's your attraction to "Look At Me Now", i never really liked the song. I felt the beat and the hook were to simplistic.

                          You're correct on both the beat and the hook; I hate both.

                          Busta and Wayne's verses make that song enjoyable.

                            I agree, I can't get enough of Busta's verse, as well as Wayne's.

                            I always turn on the radio and hear Wayne's, and get pissed that I missed Busta's.

                                Negative. Hit me up with a link or something and I'll check them out if I get the chance.
