The 2nd verse was CRAZY, to me it had to be the 2nd best verse of 2008 (Nas - Hero (3rd Verse)

06. "The Kramer" (produced by Best Kept Secret)

It takes alot for an artist this early in his career to make a joint like this

09. "The Remake of A Remake (All I Need)" f. Tawiah (produced by Mark Ronson)

This is a DOPE mixtape . . . I'm JUST hearin this @%#%, this N did his thing, I've had this in the rotation for like 3 weeks now, I slept on this @%#%real hard . . . I was wonderin what G.O.D. Jewels meant with that line, so I guess he gets hate on NT??

as a whole tape, i liked Hate is the New Love more.
however, this one was his most creative one,
and has some of the best songs he's ever made.

he really showed his versatility with this one.
still entertaining without losing the point he's tryna make.

perfect balance of mainstream appeal without losing the substance.


ps. The Artistic Integrity is just on some other shhh.
and don't get me started on how SMOOTH The Vacation from Ourselves is.
and The Kramer is one of the most epic shh i've heard in a long time.

ahh. f it. mad songs from the whole tape is crack.

whoever ain't give the dude a chance is missing out, imo.
some of the illest stuff from '08 was in that tape. a concept mixtape at.that.

Kramer is epic. He really pushed the envelope w/ that track like Kanye did w/ "Jesus Walks" and Nas w/ "N.I.G.G.E.R." :HAT

overall, all his mixtapes are dope. I prefer 100 Miles over this one though.

p.s. although he makes good music, his live shows suck!!!

Do you think I'm crazy? Do you think I'm out of my mind with this tape here? Rap is out of shape so I just wanna taper it and give it a shape up. Myflow is a razors edge, chico.
