Mase really surprised me, perhaps it was the other annoying voice on all of his previous tracks, Puff Daddy, that drew my attention away from his slow drawl. Mase would sound really great over a Sauve House, So So Def, or No Limit beat but over the fast paced Bad Boy hitmen beats he can't catch up. Some tracks, "Playas Way", "24 Hours TO Live" are high energy tracks of course "24 Hours" is saved by DMX and Black Rob and "Playas Way" by Eightball and MJG. Overall it just sounds like a bad LL Cool J album. Even looking at the album cover you can see Mase trying to impersinate LL. Mase is already leaving Bad Boy for So So Def and I can only hope that it will help his career.
