alright. hands down, the black album is one of the most solid rap albums i've ever heard. in my experience, there are usually a few really good tracks and several mediocre ones, along with a couple that are WAY to sexually explicit for my tastes (sorry, hipponax). but this one is pretty consistent the whole way through with some really good beats, and he sticks most of the time to fairly serious subject matter.
i mean, hey, he's no bob seger, but a poetic talent like that only comes along once every hundred years or so, and it would be unfair to fault s. carter for not coming of age in 1960s southeast michigan.
