For a guy with so much talent, Talib's career is following the path of Cannibus rather than Common. Whether its his poor choice of production, his questionable hooks, or alarming drop-off in lyrical quality, Talib raised a lot of eyebrows with this weak follow up to the good, not great Quality. He still has the talent, which is glaringly obvious on the three good songs on the album, "Ghetto Show", "Black Girl Pain" and "Beautiful Struggle". Hopefully Talib's next album will mark a return to respectablility, but on this disaster, Talib let down his fans and hip-hop itself, which needs MC's of his caliber ripping it as much as possible.
